Sobre Top 3 Automatic Vacuum Cleaners
But they're not just for people who are busy – they're also a great help to anyone with shedding pets, young children, the elderly or those with a physical restriction.
For our straight-line pickup tests on hard flooring, we spread large and small debris within a marked area proportional to the width of each robot vacuum’s nozzle. Each robot vacuum is given 10 minutes to clean and the debris collected is weighed to determine how much was picked up.
Users with carpets up to 7 millimeters high don’t even need to remove the mopping pads to vacuum, as the robot intelligently detects carpets and lifts the pads to prevent wetting. (The pads also don’t require removal after every use, thanks to the robot’s self-cleaning and drying mechanism when it returns to its dock.)
The j7+ comes with a cleaning base which is hard to fault. It can hold up to 60 days of debris and looks easy on the eye compared to other bases — plus it’s more compact too.
The app stood out to us for its user-friendly design, allowing you to adjust water and suction levels, schedule cleaning tasks and even view a live feed from the robot’s camera.
There are a few caveats when purchasing a robot vacuum this cheap. For starters, the iLife V3s Pro is slow, taking more than 90 minutes on average to clean a 5x5-foot test space — others took less than 30 minutes.
The app is easy to use and functions well. Our reviewer was also very impressed with the mapping – the X10 accurately mapped their apartment on its first exploratory outing – as well as the navigation and obstacle avoidance.
✅ You want a hands-off dock: The dock will empty dust (into a larger than usual dock dustbin), refill water, dispense detergent and even wash and dry the mop pads, so there's minimal effort required from you.

Another benefit is that robot vacuums are short enough to slip under the bed or couch. Because most feature side brushes to help scoop dirt from corners and edges, they can also vacuum along the walls to clean crevices that you might often skip or that your regular vacuum can’t reach.
Robot vacuums do not offer as strong a performance as upright vacuum cleaners, particularly corded ones. It’s for this reason that we don’t recommend throwing away the best vacuum cleaner even if you decide to invest in one of these strong contenders.
Your robot vacuum will go for any cables, loose shoelaces and cords if they're out and in their route of cleaning. Pelo permanent damage will be done, but you will have to clear these away to avoid the issue occurring again.
【Powerful Suction with Ease】With up to 2000Pa strong suction in max mode, Vactidy T6 robot vacuum can pick up dust, debris and pet hairs from hard floor and low-piled carpet with ease, bringing you a high-efficiency clean. 3 levels of suction power adaptable for all family regular cleaning demands.
This mid-tier robovac offers good vacuuming and mopping, the mapping is strong, and it copes well with pet hair. It's less good at getting up to the edges of rooms and the object avoidance can be unreliable, though.
