How we rank
We never average review scores. We look at where 5 test sources (RTINGS, TechRadar, Tom's Guide, Vacuum Wars, and Wirecutter) place a model in their top lists: the higher it stands there and the more sources pick it, the higher its score. The price is today’s lowest at 6 stores, shipping included, before sales tax. How our method works →
5 tests, 5 different winners
The number one on the main list of each test we weigh, and where that model stands with us. No single test decides: the score counts how high and how often a model stands across all their lists.
| Test | Their number one | With us |
|---|---|---|
| RTINGS ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Roborock Saros 10R | rank 3 of 44 with an all-in-one station |
| TechRadar ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Roborock Qrevo Curv | rank 2 of 44 with an all-in-one station |
| Tom's Guide ↗list as of September 25, 2026 | Dreame X60 Max Ultra Complete | rank 1 of 44 with an all-in-one station |
| Vacuum Wars ↗list as of September 26, 2026 | MOVA V70 Ultra Complete | rank 10 of 44 with an all-in-one station |
| Wirecutter ↗list as of August 4, 2026 | Roborock Q7 M5+ | rank 1 of 7 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 weigh 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.
