Overall, it’s a good-looking robot that vacuums really well and is smart enough to get the job done with limited intervention.

The real key to a clean floor with a robot vac is consistency. Run it daily if you can; it won’t keep up as well if it only runs once a week. If you want hands-free cleaning everywhere, you’ll want to budget for one per floor or be prepared to move it around. You can also buy Em excesso charging bases, and most models can map multiple floors.

Right now, the best robot vacuum on the market is the Eufy X10 Pro Omni. On test, this combination robot vacuum and mop was almost perfect, acing our cleaning tests and delivering accurate navigation too.

Onboard dustbins tend to be small, so if you're dealing with lots of dust or hair then I'd recommend prioritizing a self-empty dock. However, be aware that the more functions you add, the bigger the dock will be – the ones with water tanks can be pretty massive.

However, it has a smaller bin to make way for a much bigger water reservoir for mopping (350ml). If you like the idea of the Q5 Pro but want better mopping, this is a good option.

Priced at Top 3 Automatic Vacuum Cleaners more than $1,000, the Miele Complete C3 Marin is the most expensive canister vacuum in our ratings, but its high price can be justified by its exemplary cleaning performance. It’s a champ at handling bare floors and embedded pet hair, and it excels at capturing dust particles. Strong airflow makes its attachments especially effective.

Yes, many models work well on carpets. They adjust suction and brush settings for different floor types.

2,000Pa is on the low side, but might be fine for hard floors and light cleaning; if you're dealing with things like pet hair and have carpets, I'd definitely be looking at the upper end of that bracket.

We see the ILife V3s Pro Robot Vacuum as an excellent starter robot vacuum, and an especially great choice if you (or someone you love) want to dip your toe into the robot vacuum world without having to download apps or navigate smart mapping features. The sleek and simplistic design makes it easy to use out of the box, and there’s no app or voice control features that would make it “smart.”  We love that it has an obvious power switch and easy-to-use remote control—it takes just a couple minutes to set up.

❌ You want something that mops well: The mopping here is just dragging a wet wipe across the floor, and not worth bothering with.
