The best robot vacuum for carpet Self Emptying Robot Vacuum

The top robot vacuums that self-empty have a base which holds a full month's worth debris and then empty it automatically. It also makes a detailed map of your home which allows you to label rooms as well as create "no-go" zones.

It has superior obstacle avoidance capabilities, and it can stay clear of power cords and rogue socks.

iRobot Roomba s9+

This is a top model from iRobot and performs extremely well. It maneuvers easily across a variety of surfaces and is highly efficient at sucking up dirt, dust, and debris. It is also very well-built, and it looks great too.

The S9 is iRobot’s latest premium S Series robot vacuum. It has a few additional features that help it distinct from other models. For instance the iRobot app uses the camera in this unit to create a map of your home, which helps it navigate and clean effectively.

It will also return to the place where it left off when its battery gets depleted during cleaning which means you don't have to re-clean the same spots. You can also manually start and stop cleaning sessions with an easy voice command or using the iRobot app. This smart vacuum can even clean in the dark!

Carpet Boost is another great feature. It provides the S9 more suction power when it comes into contact with carpeting, meaning it will pick up more dirt. This unit also uses a square front design that is more close to corners and walls than older round designs. However, keep in mind that this model isn't able to work well with high-pile or shag carpeting.

In our tests, we discovered that the iRobot S9+ cleaned thoroughly and efficiently a range of floor surfaces including hard and medium-pile carpets. It also worked well with tiles, vinyl, and laminate floors. It also did a great job of navigating between furniture and objects although it did struggle with stairs, where it could accidentally hit things like bookcases.

We were impressed by the fact that the S9 automatically returns to its base to empty its dust bin once it's empty, which dramatically minimizes the need to be hands-on with maintenance. Its dust bag should last about 30 loads, or around two months and you'll need to replace the filter once every few months (which is actually recommended by iRobot). The iRobot S9+ is not extremely loud when it's operating which makes it a great option for families with children or pets.

Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid

Robot vacuum cleaners are designed to do the work for you and they can clean hardwood and carpeted flooring. Some robot vacuum cleaners can be controlled via apps on smartphones, and others come with mopping technology to kitchen and bathroom flooring. They're a great solution for busy families, and are becoming more affordable than ever before. If you want the latest technology for your robotic cleaner, then you'll have to shell out a bit more.

The Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid is an all-in-one mopping and vacuum machine, making it a good choice for those in a flat with multiple floors. The vacuum's 0.6l bin can hold a lot of pet hair. Dual motors give impressive cleaning power. The dust bin is easy to remove and emptied, which is great because you'll need to do this on a regular basis.

It's also simple to set it up, although I recommend fully charging the X8 Hybrid prior to running it for the very first time. Install the Eufy Home application and follow the directions to connect it to your WiFi network. Once you've done this the app will assist you create a precise map of your home. It can identify the rooms, break large spaces into sub-rooms to make it easier to open-plan living, and direct the X8 Hybrid towards specific areas that require cleaning at a specific time. There are many other robots that have similar mapping and scanning functions, but Eufy's application is more refined and user-friendly than other models.

One of the best features on the X8 Hybrid is that you can control the mop or vacuum using your voice, thanks to the integration with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. This is a nice touch that makes the robot even more hands-free, and it works well in our test home.

The X8 Hybrid, like many robotic vacuums, has issues with flooring that is not clean. It can miss pet hair and small objects, and it is prone to get into things, like its own charger at the base of its charging. It's also not as quiet, and the whirring sound can be distracting as other models.

Roborock V3S Pro

This robot doesn't have as many features as the more expensive ones we tested, however it does provide the essentials. It has a huge dust bin that can hold a large amount of dirt prior to needing to be emptied. The mop and vacuum system is great for carpets with hard floors as well as carpets with low pile. It is also very quiet. We could watch TV while it cleaned without feeling like we were being constantly bombarded by the sound.

Our testers were impressed by how simple it was to set up and use, and they were amazed by its ability to clean all the mess off their floors. It did a good job getting rid of pet hair, messes, and carpeting, but it had a harder time getting rid of stains that were stubborn. The app was simple to use and easy to understand. They were able schedule the vacuum to clean on a regular basis to reduce the amount of manual work. The one downside is that it doesn't include any mapping technology or object avoidance, so you can't direct it to specific rooms or follow virtual boundaries (though magnetic boundary strips can be used).

Another model from iRobot's affordable line that is the V3S Pro has some impressive features for the money. It beat out all other robotic vacuums we tested in terms of finding and avoiding obstacles and it's the best budget option for those who are looking for an intelligent self-emptying robot vacuum that is able to handle pet hair and messes on hardwood floors and low-pile carpeting. It's also extremely quiet and comes with a large dust bin that can hold plenty of debris before it has to be empty.

The V3S Pro did not make it into our top choices lists from trusted sources who conduct hands-on tests, however it was praised by Modern Castle, Smart Robot Reviews and The Ambient. They appreciated how easy it was to setup and use, however they noted that its battery life is limited and it wasn't able to stay clear of some of the most stubborn messes we put it through.

Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is an entry-level robot mop and vacuum that provides a wide range of features for a low cost. It comes with many of the features that you'll find on high-end models, including smart navigation and mapping, all without spending top dollar. You can utilize voice commands with Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple Siri shortcuts for custom automations, and Self Emptying Robot Vacuum to start your cleaning process while you are away.

Roborock has put in the time to develop this smart cleaner. It is extremely well-constructed and feels like top quality materials were used in the making of it. The base is sturdy and sturdy, with the charging port built into the battery. There's a docking station for the clean-water tank as well as the dirty-water bins above. You'll also find a panel beneath the dock, which houses the vacuum bag that is sealed.

After pairing your device with the app, you'll see a 3D and 2D map of your home that will show you the location of your robot at any given moment and the specific area it's cleaning. You can also create virtual barriers to ensure that the robot isn't in certain areas, and make sure it's only cleaning certain kinds of floors. It's also capable of adjusting its power settings based on the type of floor being cleaned, and selecting the most efficient method of cleaning.

The Q Revo is unlike many other robot vacuums due to the fact that it can lift both of its mop heads while vacuuming. This prevents carpet fibers from getting stained. In fact, it's the only vacuums on the market that can do this.

The Q Revo's suction force of 5500Pa can get rid of pet hair and dust specks while mopping. The all-rubber brush is great at disentangling human and animal hair and also adapting to uneven surfaces.

The only drawback to this machine is that it takes a long time to fill and empty both the dirty and clean tanks. Luckily, you can decrease the frequency of this by utilizing the auto-empty feature, which will automatically empty the container after a few days. You'll still need to check the level of water on the dock manually however, since there's no way to set an automatic reminder.
