Which robot is right for your home? Find out in 7 questions →

Under five hundred dollars you get a robot with laser navigation, a good map of your home and enough suction for hard floors and low-pile carpet. More and more models in this class have a self-emptying station, and the odd one even a station that washes the mops. What you usually miss: hot water for the mop, a camera that recognizes socks and cables, and extending brushes for the corners.

The list below changes daily with the prices. The order is our consensus of 5 test sources; the price is today's lowest including shipping.

Clear all filters 29 of 32 models

Only models rated at least 2 stars by the stores that report customer ratings. Models without a rating fall outside this filter.

Score: consensus of the positions in 5 test sources, 100 = top of every source. Every model on this list is recommended by at least one test source. The bottom of a top list is still worth half the points, and a model named by only one source cannot score above 50. Only models sold in the United States count. Method.

Other models we track

Models without a ranking table of their own: none of our test sources recommends them, or their dock type has too few models for a fair comparison. We do track their prices.
