Roomba 960 by iRobot

The iRobot Roomba 980, best Robot Mop For large areas the most recent in a line of top-of-the-line robot vacuums, is a must for any modern home. This model comes with a HEPA-filter to aid those suffering from allergies. Additionally it has a powerful battery that can clean for up to two hours and it automatically returns to its dock once its bin is full.

It also has the feature of smart mapping which uses multiple sensors to determine the areas of your home that require attention and create a cleaning route around them. We've seen this technology in action and it does a good job of moving around toys that have been left scattered on the floor or furniture legs that are sticking out from under the furniture. It also has a sensor that will snap Roomba to reality if it begins to wander away from its initial location.

iRobot has also included a set of rollers underneath the Roomba which do not have bristles and therefore are more likely to avoid tangles than previous models. These rollers are also taller and can be placed under beds or couches that are low. They're specifically designed to make this model more maneuverable on different floor types.

The Roomba 980 differs from other models with a high-end price tag due to its latest dirt detection feature that makes use of a camera in order to identify dirt that has been embedded. This is a significant improvement over the previous model that relied on the use of a sensor-driven pseudorandom cover to bounce around the room, and then clean the area three times, at different angles.

In our tests of its performance, the Roomba 980 did well on carpets and hard flooring. Its score on the low pile carpet was very good and it scored a high score on mid pile, too. It did a fair job of removing pet hair, but it was struggling with very thick and long pet fur that was clumped together.

The Roomba 980 is still one of the most efficient robots we've reviewed despite the slight limitations. It's also less expensive than other top-of-the-line models. It has many of the features we would expect from a flagship model, but doesn't come with all the fancy apps or home integration that you'll find in other top models.

The iRobot Roomba is easy to set up and start up and running immediately. After taking off the yellow bin insert and battery pull tab from its undercarriage it is simply connected to the wall socket or one of its Home Base docking stations, click the "Clean button" and let it work. It will automatically return to the dock when it runs out of battery or becomes full of sand. There are also indicators on top that show the bin is empty, when it needs to recharge, or when it loses Wi-Fi.
