How we rank
Six rules every robot is ranked by
The same rules for every brand, every day. No brand or store can pay its way up.
Tested, or not ranked
A robot enters the ranking only after a cleaning test. 140 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 stores.
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 stores that ship 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.
5 tests, 5 different winners
The number one on the main list of each test we follow, and where that model stands in our ranking. Their picks are shown beside our score and do not count in it.
| Test | Their number one | With us |
|---|---|---|
| RTINGS ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Roborock Saros 10R | rank 35 of 64 with an all-in-one station |
| TechRadar ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Roborock Qrevo Curv | rank 10 of 64 with an all-in-one station |
| Tom's Guide ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete | rank 5 of 64 with an all-in-one station |
| Vacuum Wars ↗list as of September 26, 2026 | MOVA V70 Ultra Complete | rank 18 of 64 with an all-in-one station |
| Wirecutter ↗list as of August 4, 2026 | Roborock Q7 M5+ | rank 6 of 13 with a self-emptying station |
The main list is a test’s overall top list, not its lists for a budget, pets or carpet, which we show too. The date is the day we last read the list.
Where we check prices
We read prices every day at most stores, from their product feed or web store, and Amazon’s through price services such as Keepa. We check them for errors and keep them, so you can see what a price did over the last 90 days.

Whose tests we use
The lab part of our score comes from the measured tests of Vacuum Wars.
Beside each model we also show where these testers place it in their own lists, without counting it in the score:
How we combine lab tests, owners’ ratings and facts into one score is on the method page.
