The best robot vacuum under $200 in 2026

Under two hundred dollars you can get, in 2026, a robot that cleans on a schedule and finds its own way back to its dock: some with laser navigation and a map of your home, and the odd one with a self-emptying station. What you usually miss: a camera that recognizes socks and cables, a mop that lifts itself over carpet, and the suction of the pricier models on high-pile carpet.

The list below changes daily: a model that drops just under the limit today because of an offer may be gone tomorrow. The order is our consensus of 5 test sources. The price is today's lowest including shipping.

Only models rated at least 3 stars from at least 20 reviews at the stores that report customer ratings. Models with fewer reviews or without a rating fall outside this filter.
