The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger debris such as books and toys that have been damaged.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our review, however it comes with some unique features that are worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its massive dock which doubles as a charging base and the housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink and a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.

The base has several control buttons that let you manually start a cleaning task, recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two of the buttons to switch on a child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the Omni Omni utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni can occasionally become so entangled with obstacles, like an electrical cord dangling across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you manually free it. This was a rare incident, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad however, the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed the sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a significant contrast to the basic black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's an impressive sight in the market that is dominated by boxy units.
