2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner with an impressive amount of features at a reasonable price. It has a long running time and does a fantastic job cleaning carpeted and bare floors. It's a great app and is well it is used in conjunction with Alexa. It lacks the mapping features and other advanced controls you will find in the more expensive competitors.

This robot best vacuum and Mop Robot combo is outfitted with a Lefant M210: Powerful Wi-Fi Robot Vacuum with Strong Suction motor as well as a multi-surface brush roller that can get into the corners and cracks. It will ensure that your home is properly cleaned. It also has bumper sensors to avoid collisions, as well as the lower cliff sensor stops the robot from falling down the stairs. It can also be programmed to run a specific room or set of rooms at scheduled intervals, and it is capable of resuming cleaning that it stopped halfway through.

The Shark ION is very effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it has a difficult time to get rid of pet hairs and debris from carpeted surfaces. It is also prone to getting caught in furniture. However, it does a decent job of avoiding obstacles, and it can run for a long time of up to 90 minutes.

One of the most appealing aspects about this robot is its user-friendly interface. There is a round cleaning button on the top of the unit, which you can press to begin a cleaning session, or you can use your phone to launch the Shark ION app and give it a voice-command. The app will inform you how much battery remaining and the status of the vacuum. It will also tell you whether the cleaning session has been completed or not.

Many customers also loved the fact that this vacuum works with Alexa. The vacuum can be switched off and on with a simple voice command. You can also schedule cleaning times with the app. The only thing we didn't love about this model was that it took a little bit longer to charge compared to other models we've reviewed. Also the two hand vac attachments included aren't able to fit in the base and are easily lost.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

This Samsung model is not just a top-rated robotic vacuum cleaner and also functions as a camera to monitor your home. It comes with a lens is accessible via your phone and is designed to keep an eye on the surrounding area of your home. You can create a timer to watch your home when you're away. This is especially useful for pets that shed or if you want to keep an eye out for anyone sneaking in.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a high-end model that comes with a range of features including object recognition and home monitoring, a self-emptying dirt bin, and five layers of filtration. It's a great choice for people who want a premium vacuum that excels on hard floors but doesn't mind a bit of dust on carpets.

This robot's advanced obstacle avoidance is among its most effective features. It uses a combination of sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the environment and detect objects. It can either navigate around the object or mark it as an area that is not allowed on the map. This feature isn't available on other robots, making the Samsung a safe choice for your home.

On the contrary this model doesn't perform very well on spot cleaning. We asked the robot to clean a low-pile carpet with rice grains scattered across it. The robot did a poor job at pushing the rice grains and failed to remove any of them. This is a disappointing test considering that other models have done better in this test.

It's important to note, too, that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ can be a bit pricey compared to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar performance for a lower cost. For instance, you could purchase a top-rated robot vacuum that has similar features for half the price with the eufy RoboVac G30 Verge: Ultimate Home Cleaning RoboVac X8 Hybrid.

Like other Samsung smart devices, this robot can be controlled via the SmartThings app. The setup process is easy using the in-app prompts.
