iRobot Roomba 694"

The Roomba 694 by iRobot is a robot vacuum for entry-level use that is able to work on carpets with a low pile or bare floor. It has good suction, but struggles with larger debris like grains of rice or sand. It is capable of cleaning pet hair, but is not as resistant to tangling as the premium Roomba models such as the j7 and I6.

The Roomba 694 is easy to use. It has three buttons on the top 10 robot vacuums cover. 'Clean,' which initiates a cleaning session and 'Dock' that puts it in its charging station, and "Spot," which initiates an individualized cleaning. It can be controlled with a smartphone app that allows you to schedule and stop/start cycles, and also adjust settings. It is also possible to pair the device with smart home devices like Alexa or Google Assistant to control it by voice.

This vacuum cleaner is slower than some others, but it is able to reach most corners and crevices. It comes with a large bin that makes it easy to empty. It is compatible with digital mapping and virtual barriers, which allow you to make the robot avoid certain areas, or even stop cleaning altogether to avoid it from getting stuck.

While it's not the best model in its price range however, it's superior to many other alternatives. The Roborock E4 is more advanced than the Roomba 694 with better cleaning performance for carpets that are low and bare. It also follows a more efficient cleaning path and has longer battery life. It also feels more durable and has fewer parts that need regular maintenance, costs less to maintain over its life and charges faster than the 694.

It is also worth considering other models within the iRobot range, including the v7 or the 981. The v7 and 981 are more expensive, but they provide significant improvements in cleaning performance, both on bare and low pile floors. They also have a larger dirt compartment and charge faster, move more easily, and are easier to pair with smart home devices.

Shark RV1001AE IQ

This budget self-emptying robotic vacuum cleaner does a great job on low-pile carpet and hard floors. Its combination brush reaches corners and edges and it automatically increases suction when it senses carpet. It also does a great job of cleaning dirt off mid-pile carpet. The IQ's small footprint for docks and the self-emptying feature are nice touches. However, if you wish to change floor levels on the map or set no-go zones you'll have to manually reset it in order to do so, which is quite trouble.

The IQ's app has some advanced mapping and automation capabilities however it doesn't have no-go zones, which are available on iRobot models. The smart-pathing technology permits for better maneuverability, and the high-pile mode of its carpet cleaning mode is efficient but it could get caught in the tassels of the rug.

During our tests in our tests, the IQ was able to handle pet hair well, clearing huge amounts of hair from floors with no flooring and fair amounts of medium-pile carpet. It was less efficient with shag carpets. It had a hard time reaching dirt and dust embedded within the fibers. It was able navigate chair legs, small spaces as well as the base of an IKEA wooden step stool. It was a bit slower on floors that were not paved, but it recovered speed and performed better than other robots we have evaluated.

The IQ is a better choice over the iRobot Roomba 694 for most applications. It has a larger dustbin, lasts longer on a charge and is capable of maneuvering itself around obstacles. It comes with a mopping tool that can remove sticky debris. The iRobot is, on the other hand feels better constructed and has fewer parts that need maintenance or replacement, incurs less cost per year, and can create virtual no go zones using its companion application. It is able to continue cleaning from where it left off even if the battery runs out before it has finished. The iRobot can also be controlled via voice, which is a major benefit for many users.

Eufy 11S

The RoboVac 11S from Eufy isn't the most feature-rich robot vacuum available, but it does offer powerful cleaning capabilities at a low price. It's a budget-friendly option for buyers who don't need a complicated mapping system or app to control the device. The robot is able to last for over an hour. It includes a remote control, cleaning tool and AC power adapter.

The 11S is slim and sleek with an upper deck of tempered glass that covers plastic finished to appear like brushed aluminum. It's a nice change from the utilitarian and industrial designs of Roomba, Samsung and Neato.

In our tests, the eufy11S was very effective in removing larger particles and fine dust on hard flooring. However, it struggled to provide medium and high pile carpets an effective deep clean. The device has a tendency to hit furniture and people along its course. However, it is able detect these obstacles using sensors. When it comes across them, it ceases to move and emits an alarm so that you can manually steer it around the obstacle and then get it back to work.

The BoostIQ mode is a great feature of the Eufy11S. It lets you set the mini robot vacuum up to automatically adjust suction strength based on the floor type and the level of dirt. It's also simple to use the remote to direct the 11S in the direction you'd like it to go.

Single Room Mode is a great alternative if you have a small amount of furniture in the area you'd like to vacuum. The eufy will spend 30 minutes focusing on cleaning the area that it's assigned to.

Edge Cleaning is another option that limits the time spent on each area to 20 minutes. This will maximize battery life. This option allows the eufy to move in a spiraling pattern by cleaning edges and corners.

Miele Complete C1

The Miele Complete C1 is an excellent mid-range canister robotic vacuum that can be a great performer on carpet. Its performance on carpets with no floor is also exceptional. It is able to remove small particles such as rice with ease and it doesn't suffer from suction power even when its dirt bin fills.
