Bagless Robotic Sweepers

For certain, robot vacuums such as Scuttle Bug or RoRo are now family pets. They even play hide-and-seek games with their owners!

Robotic vacuums and mops work autonomously, so once you set them up they're content to continue cleaning on their own. They'll last a long time with minimal maintenance, like emptying the bins and cleaning the brushes.

1. Powerful suction

bagless electric robots robotic sweepers have powerful suction that is similar to traditional vacuum cleaners. They also have a variety of features that let them tackle various flooring types and sizes of homes. The most effective robots let you schedule cleaning in specific rooms and set boundaries around areas you do or don't want to clean. You can use an app to modify the intensity of your robot cleaning and track its progress as it moves.

A feature that many users find helpful is the ability to select which direction and where the robot will begin. Depending on your home layout it can be useful in areas with a lot of doors and corners. Many bagless self-cleaning robots also have a docking station that lets you change out disposable or reusable dustbins and recharge the robot between uses. Some have an auto-emptying base that eliminates the need to purchase disposal bags.

The primary drawback of bagless electric robots robotic sweepers is that they can be quite expensive. This is particularly true for those models with a self-emptying base which can add significant money to the total cost of the device. These gadgets are becoming more popular and can be a great option for homeowners who are frustrated or tired with the hassle of manually vacuuming their floors or dealing with pet hair.

The Eufy 11s is a great vacuum cleaner that is ideal for general cleaning and is able to get into all the corners and crevices of my house. However it has some significant issues when it comes to cleaning pet hair. It comes with an anti-tangle device which is designed to shred and cut hair. However, I found myself constantly arranging and picking cat and dog hair. The robot could also become stuck on carpets and become trapped by soft, high pile fibers.

Some of the more expensive models I tested (such as the Shark Matrix Auto-Emptying Vacuum) had superior pet hair collection and navigation. Their dual dustbins are able to accommodate different amounts of debris. They are also much easier to empty. They can also get into corners much more easily than circular robots due to of their square-ish shape. They are able to recognize objects and can take in Cheerios, piles of oatmeal and even fake dog turds while managing the lamp cords and fake dog turds.

2. Cleaning with Adaptive

One of the most important things you'll discover in any robot vacuum, and especially bags-free models, is the ability to adapt to changing conditions. Your robo-vac will be able to recognize, for instance what kind of floor that you have in each space that is hard or soft. It will also learn how to navigate around obstacles like furniture and stairs. The more information your robo-vac can gather the better it will be to clean your entire house.

Smart robotic cleaners can also reach places that a traditional broom or dustpan cannot, such as under beds, or other high places that require you to get down on your knees. Some robots, depending on the model that you select, can be programmed to clean specific areas or rooms during specific times of the day.

The best robot vacuums are able to remove small particles like sand or baking soda and heavier debris like heaps of oatmeal or orzo pasta as well as nuts and screws made of metal or fluffy stuff like pet hair. They can also get into tight places where a stick broom could be difficult to reach. And they're often quieter than an upright or canister vacuum and can be set to run in the background while you read or watch television.

In addition to vacuuming, some models also sweep and mop the floors in your home. These machines require extra care. You'll have to take off the mopping pad and clean it (and let it dry) before reinstalling it. If your manufacturer recommends that you wash the filter you should wash and rinse the filter frequently (and allow it to dry).

The majority of mops can be reused multiple times, but make sure you buy one with an enormous water tank and a lot of mopping pads (the Dreametech W10 for example that won an award from the Good Housekeeping Best Cleaning and Organizing Award in the past, holds up to 12 mopping pads as well as 5 gallons). Some of the most advanced models include a charging dock which can replenish the tank and empty the bin.

3. Efficient

There's no home appliance that has evolved in the same speed as the robot vacuum. In the beginning they were a collection of overpriced machines that were stuck on the steps and sucked up with pet hair and cat litter, but today there's an incredible selection of models at every price range offering self-emptying bins, mapping capabilities, mopping functions and more.

The most significant advancement that has come to the robotic vacuum is the improvement in obstacle avoidance. This is the ability to identify and avoid obstacles that cause problems like tangled cords furniture legs and piles dog waste (catch that hall-of-fame CNET article for more details on this topic). Even the best robot vacuums cannot keep them out of sight every day. This means that they may get overwhelmed and end in snagging or scattering dog waste on your floors.

More advanced robots use cameras, gyroradar-, laser-(laser distance sensor or LDS) guided systems to map out the layout of your space in order to ensure they're getting a thorough cleaning and aren't missing any areas. They are also able to keep track of and update multiple floor plans. This helps them be more efficient and decreases the likelihood that they'll have to spend long hours retracing their steps or cleaning the same spots repeatedly.

If you're looking for a set-it-and-forget robot vacuum that will perform the dirty work without assistance from you take a look at the top smart bagless intelligent robot vacuum we've tested to date: the iRobot J7+. It beat all of the competition in our tests in terms of mapping, establishing virtual boundaries and avoiding obstacles, making it the perfect "set it and forget it" robot vacuum.

If you want to save money, but don't require smart features such as mapping or a bin that automatically emptys, then the Eufy 11S is our budget-friendly pick of the year. It's a great choice for carpeting with low pile and hardwood floors and is able to remove dust, pet hair and cat litter well. The dust bin onboard can hold up to 45 days of dirt, and when it gets full, it automatically goes back to its dock for emptying.

4. Easy to maintain

Like all household appliances robotic vacuums and mops also require periodic cleaning. How often you clean it depends on your household's needs and the model. You'll have to empty the dust bin on a regular basis and may also have to clean the brushes or wheels, based on the model. Most robots come with guide to recommended maintenance procedures.

You can, for example clean the bin using water and wipe it with a moist (not drippy) melamine spong to remove any dirt that has accumulated on. You can also clean the filters and wheels of your robot vac to keep it running smoothly. Nasrallah recommends you check the wheels at least once a week to ensure that they're free of threads hairs, and other debris that could get within and cause the machine to malfunction. It is also recommended to clean the brushes beneath your robot both the right and left drive wheel, as well as the sidebrush once a month. This will ensure that they're free of dirt.

Certain models can double as automated robot mops which adds mopping to your home cleaning routine. If you plan to make use of this feature, ensure that your space is vacuum-proofed thoroughly prior to turning on your mop robot. This way, the robot won't be dragged around by pet socks or toys that haven't been secured.

Other useful features to look for include a self-emptying base that makes it easier to take out the trash, a high-efficiency filter to reduce the amount of allergens in the air, and a smart mapping technology that aids the robot to understand the arrangement of your rooms so that it can clean them in a methodical fashion. Some models also permit you to define areas that your robot can't clean -- a great option if you have kids who like to put their shoes on the floor.
