2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner with a good amount of features for the price. It has a long running time and does an excellent job cleaning carpeted and bare floors.

It's a good choice for people who want an exceptional vacuum that is able to perform on hard floors but doesn't mind a bit of dust on carpets.

One of the greatest features of this robot is its superior obstacle avoidance. It uses sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and find objects. Then it either navigates around them or marks them as a no-go zone in the map. This feature isn't available on other robots, making the Samsung a safe choice for your house.

This model is not very efficient in spot cleaning. We tested it by scattering rice particles on carpets with low pile and sending the robot in to clean. The robot was unable to take up or push the rice grains. This is a disappointing outcome given that other models have performed better in this test.

It's worth mentioning, too that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap compared to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums offer similar performance at a lower price. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for instance is a top-rated robot vacuum that provides the same features at a fraction of the cost.
