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 →
The models in our ranking run from about $999 to $999 today. We show the lowest verified price of the day per model, shipping included, before sales tax.
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, a self-emptying station is enough.

Every day, at every store we follow. We read the prices from the stores’ own product feeds and web stores, and Amazon’s through price services such as Keepa. 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. Per store: how and how often
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 test sources rather than on the number alone.
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.
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.
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.
