Quanto você precisa esperar que você vai pagar por um bem Top 3 Automatic Vacuum Cleaners
Not sure a house robot is for you? We've also got the best stick vacuums, best upright vacuums and best handheld vacuums for all your cleaning needs.
Impressing with its pick-up on all tests, large crumbs, finer dirt and even pet hair posed no problems. It also consistently self-emptied its dust canister fully into the docking station.
Our testers called it “cute” and "convenient" with its retractable cord and place to clip the wand, though one wished that it also had an easy way to wrap the hose for even neater storage.
Hannah is also interested in sustainability in the home and has completed a course with the University of the Arts London in sustainable textiles, so she can help cut through the noise on what’s green and what’s not.
Not all robovacs can handle the Em excesso challenge posed by lots of pet hair, but one that really impressed on this front was the Dreame L40 Ultra. This bot was put through its paces in a home filled with furry, four-legged friends, and really rose to the occasion.
While an effective helper around the home, the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra’s docking space is larger than expected, measuring around 45cm on every side to house its dual dust and water buckets.
✅ 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 Top 3 Automatic Vacuum Cleaners and dry the mop pads, so there's minimal effort required from you.
It disabled the side brushes when on carpet, so it struggled on room edges, and it didn’t quite have the power to collect all the dust we laid. It did a decent job with pet hair and crumbs though.
It lifted most pet hair, and cleaned room edges well, in part thanks to its effective spin brush and three driving modes that let you select when you want it to tackle them. Despite not having a spot clean function, it mopped our flooring in one sweep (although our testers found a second sweep was required to leave it fully refreshed).
If your pet occasionally makes a mess on the carpet, look for models that are designed to recognize and avoid poop.
The mop function works well for cleaning the worst of a spill too, although you may want to follow up with a final wipe yourself, as there’s pelo spot clean function.
A few of our other favorite perks on a vacuum at this price point are a TurboBrush tool similar to the motorized pet tools on many pricier models, a retractable cord and onboard storage for the tools.
The maximum-power boost mode lasts a paltry 12 minutes before needing to recharge, but it is practical enough to use if you’re away from home for most of the day. Dyson claims the 360 viz nav is six times more powerful than any other robot vacuum, and the results from our home tests seem to back that up.
That said, the functionality worked well in our lab tests with the robot recognising barriers and using its retractable legs to move over them.
