2. Shark ION

The Shark ION robot vacuum cleaner is a basic model, but it comes with a lot of features. It offers a long-lasting run time and is able to clean carpeted and bare floors rooms. It also has a useful app and works well with Alexa. It isn't equipped with mapping features and other advanced controls found in higher-priced competitors.

This robotic vacuum comes with a powerful motor as well as a multi-surface brush roller to reach into corners and cracks. It will ensure that your home is well cleaned. It also has bumper sensors to avoid collisions and an lower cliff sensor that prevents the robot from falling down stairs. It can be programmed to clean rooms or sets of rooms on a regular basis.

While the Shark ION is very effective on floors that are clean but it is unable to pick up pet hair and other small particles on carpeted areas. It also gets caught under furniture. It is capable of avoiding obstructions, and has a runtime of 90 minutes.

The user interface that this robot has is among its most appealing features. You can either press the round button on the top of the unit to begin cleaning, or open the Shark ION App on your smartphone and issue the command. The app will tell you how much battery is left and the current status of the vacuum. It will also tell you if the cleaning process has been completed or not.

Many customers also loved the fact that this robot works with Alexa. You can easily turn this vacuum on and off with an easy voice command, and you can make use of the app to plan cleaning times. The only downside we found with this robot is that it takes a bit longer to charge than the other models that we've reviewed, and the two hand vac attachments can't fit in the base and could be lost easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Besides being a top-rated robot vacuum in the market, this Samsung model also functions as a camera for home monitoring. It has a lens that is accessible via your phone and is designed to monitor the surroundings around your home. You can even create a schedule of when you want it to be patrolling the home when you are away. This is great if you have pets shed or you want to be on the lookout for any intrusions.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a top-quality model that comes with a range of features like object recognition and home monitoring, a self-emptying dust bin and five layers of filtering. It's an excellent choice for those looking for an excellent model that is able to clean hard floors, but don't mind a little dust on carpets.

The robot's advanced obstacle avoidance is among its most impressive features. It utilizes a combination sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the environment and identify objects. It either navigates around the object or mark it as an unfriendly zone on the map. This feature isn't found on other robots and makes the Samsung the most secure option for your home.

This model is not very efficient in spot cleaning. We asked the robot to clean a carpet that had rice grains scattered over it. The machine did a poor job of moving the rice grains around, and did not remove any of them. This is a disappointing outcome given that other models have performed better in this test.

It's also worth noting, that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ can be quite expensive in comparison to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums offer similar performance for less. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for instance is a highly rated robotic vacuum that offers similar features for half the cost.

As with other Samsung smart devices, this robot can be controlled by the SmartThings app. Setup is simple thanks to in-app instructions. The app lets you look at the map, make cleaning schedules, adjust suction, select no-go areas, and manage other settings. It also shows the current status of your robot and lets you see when the dustbin must be cleaned.

We tried this robot in our Cleaning Lab last year, and found that it performed well on hard floors as well as carpet with a low pile. Its Matrix Clean Navigation, which uses a grid-like pattern to make sure that you clean every corner of your home, can also recognize stairs.
