| Mopping | |||
| How the mop is built: flat pads, two spinning discs or a roller. Discs press harder on dried-on dirt, a roller rinses itself while it works. When it matters
Source
| flat or vibrating pad | flat or vibrating pad | flat or vibrating pad |
| How far the robot lifts the mop when it drives onto a carpet. From about 10 mm a medium pile stays dry. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| The robot leaves the mop at the dock before it vacuums a carpet, so the carpet never gets wet. When it matters
Source
| – | – | no (assumed) |
| The dock washes the mop for you, so you do not rinse it by hand. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| Drying is done with warm air instead of cold. It is faster and it helps against smell. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| Station | |||
| The station the robot returns to, and what it does by itself, such as emptying the bin or washing and drying the mops. Station same on all | charging dock only | charging dock only | charging dock only |
| How long the maker says a dust bag lasts with daily use. With pets or a lot of carpet it is shorter. When it matters
Source
| – | – | up to 30 days |
| The dock can be connected to the tap and the drain, so you never fill or empty a tank. It does need a connection nearby. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| Brush and obstacles | |||
| A brush that guides hair to the side instead of letting it wind around the shaft. It saves the cutting work in homes with long hair or pets. When it matters
Source
| yes | yes | yes |
| The highest threshold the robot takes, as the maker states it. Measure your own: the step into a bathroom or onto a balcony is often higher. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 16 mm | 20 mm best | 20 mm best |
| An extending leg or wheel that carries the robot over a high threshold. Without one it usually stops at about 2 cm. When it matters
Source
| – | – | no (assumed) |
| Size, noise and age | |||
| How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 8.1 cm best | 9.9 cm | 9.9 cm |
| The noise in decibels, in the setting its source names: makers mostly give the standard setting, shops often the highest. 65 dB is like a vacuum at half power, 55 dB like a conversation. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 64 dB | – | 65 dB |
| The month the model first went on sale. It shows how old the technology in it is. On the market since | February 2024 | January 2025 | April 2025 |
| Suction and brushes | |||
| Suction in pascal, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot picks grit off a hard floor. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 4,000 Pa | 8,000 Pa | 10,000 Pa |
| Whether the robot copes with pet hair: a brush that hair does not wind around and a dock that empties the bin for you. Where the maker does not say so itself, we read it from those two. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| The side brush swings out in a corner or along a kickboard, so the dust there is swept in too. When it matters
Source
| – | – | no (assumed) |
| The robot notices when it drives onto a carpet. Most then raise their suction, and a mopping robot lifts its mop or leaves it at the dock. When it matters
Source
| – | – | detects carpet and boosts suction |
| Mopping | |||
| How much clean water the robot carries. It sets how long it mops before a refill, which a dock does by itself. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 200 ml | 270 ml | 270 ml |
| The pad slides out along a wall or a kickboard, so the last few centimetres are mopped as well. When it matters
Source
| – | – | no (assumed) |
| The robot returns to the dock during a run to rinse the mop, instead of pushing dirty water around. When it matters
Source
| – | – | no (assumed) |
| Dock | |||
| The dock empties the robot’s dust bin, usually after every run. You only empty the dock’s bag or bin. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| The dock dries the mop afterwards, so it does not sit there wet and start to smell. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| The dock mixes detergent into the water itself, from its own bottle. When it matters
Source
| – | no | no |
| Navigation and obstacles | |||
| How the robot maps your home and follows that map. Lidar measures with a laser and works in the dark, a camera looks along and recognises more. When it matters
Source
| – | LiDAR turret | LiDAR turret |
| Sensors under the robot that see a drop, so it stops at the top of a staircase instead of falling down it. When it matters
| – | yes | yes |
| How you keep the robot out of a place: a zone you draw in the app, a virtual wall or a magnetic strip on the floor. When it matters
Source
| – | – | zones in the app |
| When the battery runs low in the middle of a run, the robot recharges and then carries on where it stopped. When it matters
Source
| – | – | yes |
| Robot | |||
| What the robot weighs. It counts most if you carry it up a staircase every day. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 3.52 kg | 3.3 kg | 3.3 kg |
| How much dust the robot holds before you empty it. It matters less with an auto-empty dock, which empties the bin after every run. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 400 ml | 400 ml | 400 ml |
| How wide the robot is. Narrower gets between chair legs more easily, wider usually means a bigger dust bin. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| – | 32.5 cm | 32.5 cm |
| Battery | |||
| How long the robot cleans on one charge, at its quietest setting. After that it recharges and carries on where it stopped. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| 120 min | 180 min | 180 min |
| The capacity of the battery. It hints at the runtime, but how much the robot draws counts just as much. In this comparisonSource
| – | 3,200 mAh | 3,200 mAh |
| How long an empty battery takes to charge fully in the dock. In this comparisonWhen it matters
Source
| – | 4 h | 4 h |
| Smart features and warranty | |||
| Which voice assistants the robot works with, such as Google Assistant or Alexa. When it matters
Source
| Alexa, Google Assistant | Alexa, Google Assistant | Alexa, Google Assistant |
| You set days and times, and the robot starts by itself, also when you are not at home. When it matters
Source
| – | yes | yes |
| Whether the robot works with Home Assistant, the home automation software you run yourself. Official means the integration comes with Home Assistant itself, community that volunteers maintain it. When it matters
Source
| – | official integration | official integration |
| Matter is the standard that lets devices from different makers work together. With it you can run the robot outside the maker’s own app. When it matters
Source

Facts as the maker states them. A dash means the maker does not name it. Each model’s page gives the source of every fact. Noise is the maker’s own figure, so we do not judge it, and a customer rating only counts from 20 reviews.
Score out of 10: 60% lab tests, 25% owners’ ratings at the shops that deliver to Germany, 15% the maker’s facts. Price does not count. Only models a lab has tested are ranked, and only models sold in Germany count. Method. Models no lab has tested yet, so they are not in our ranking. We do track their prices.

A robot enters the ranking only after a cleaning test. 101 have been tested so far.
Price never counts
A discount can’t lift a model. The price sits beside the score, checked every morning at 6 shops.
Cleaning weighs most
60% of the score is measured cleaning: carpet, pet hair, mopping, obstacles and navigation.
Owners and makers have a say
25% comes from owners’ star ratings at the shops that deliver to you, 15% from the facts the maker states.
Thin evidence counts less
The fewer tests behind a result, the more we pull it toward the average of its station type, so one lucky run can’t top the list.
Reviewers shown, not blended
The picks of RTINGS, TechRadar, Tom's Guide, Vacuum Wars and Wirecutter sit next to our score, so you can see where they agree.

Frequently asked questions
What does a good robot vacuum cost in Germany?
The models in our ranking run from about 111 € to 1,499 € today. A robot with an auto-empty station costs from 159 € today, one with an all-in-one station that also washes the mop from 289 €. We show the lowest verified price of the day per model, VAT and delivery included.
Is an all-in-one station worth the money?
It saves maintenance: the station empties the bin, washes the mop and dries it, often for weeks without you touching anything. You pay for that in money and in floor space, because such a station is large. With mostly hard floors and little room, an auto-empty station is enough.

How often do you update the prices?
Every day, at every shop we follow. We read the prices from the shops’ own product feeds and web shops. We check them for errors and keep them, so every product page shows what a price did over the last 90 days. We only call a discount real when the price also sits below the level of the preceding 30 days. We link to Amazon too, but show no Amazon price until we read it through Amazon’s own API. Until then the price is on Amazon itself. Per shop: how and how often
What does suction in pascal mean?
Pascal is the pressure the robot can build, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot lifts grit off a hard floor: the brush, the airflow and the route matter more there. That is why we lean on lab tests rather than on the number alone.
How does a robot vacuum work?
It drives through the house by itself and sweeps dirt with spinning brushes towards a suction inlet, which pulls it into a bin inside the robot. With a laser (LiDAR) or a camera it maps your home, so it works in lanes and knows where it has been. Sensors keep it off the stairs and steer it around obstacles. When the run is done or the battery runs low, it drives back to its station to charge. A station can also empty the bin and, as an all-in-one station, wash the mop.
How long does a robot vacuum last?
Years, if you look after it. Brushes, filters and mop pads wear and are replaced now and then, and the battery holds less charge over time and can be replaced on many models. How long exactly differs by model and by use. So when buying, look at the warranty too, and at whether parts and a new battery are sold separately. When the maker states a warranty, it is listed with the model’s specifications.
Where we check prices
We read prices every day at most shops, from their product feed or web shop. We check them for errors and keep them, so you can see what a price did over the last 90 days. We link to Amazon too, but show no Amazon price until we read it through Amazon’s own API. Until then the price is on Amazon itself.
