It has an additional bin for dirt and a combo mop/vacuuming bin that you fill with water or a liquid cleaner. The robot automatically switches between mopping and vacuuming modes depending on the contents of its bins.

Using the iRobot's Enhanced mVac Mode, the Roomba Combo j5+ delivers powerful dust suction to get your floors clean. This mode utilizes the Clean Base Automatic Dirt disposal to empty the robot's dirt bin, giving you an unrestricted hands-free experience.

This is a great choice for anyone who has pets but would like the convenience of a mop and vacuum combinator.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION robot vacuum cleaner is a basic model with many features. It is able to run for a long time and does a fantastic job cleaning carpeted and bare floors. It also has a useful app that is compatible with Alexa. However, it does not have the mapping capabilities and other advanced controls that are offered by more expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum comes with an extremely powerful motor that has a multi-surface brush roll to reach into cracks and corners to ensure your home is spotless. It also comes with bumper sensors to prevent collisions, as well as a lower cliff sensor that prevents the robot from falling down stairs. It can be programmed to clean the room or set of rooms at regular intervals.

While the Shark ION is very effective on clean floors, it does struggle to clean up pet hair and fine debris on carpeted areas. It also gets caught under furniture. However, it does a decent job of avoiding obstacles and it can run for a long time of up to 90 minutes.

The user interface of this robot is simple to use and is one of its best features. There is a round cleaning button on the top of the unit that you can press to start cleaning or use your phone to launch the Shark ION app and give it a voice command. After you've completed that, the app will display the battery level and status of the vacuum, as well as whether it's completed a full or partial Effortless Cleaning With Smart Mapping Robot Vacuums session.

Many customers also loved the fact that this vacuum can be controlled by Alexa. It is easy to turn the vacuum on and Effortless Cleaning with Smart Mapping Robot Vacuums off using the simple voice command and you can utilize the app to set up cleaning times. The one thing we didn't like about this robot was that it took a bit longer to charge as compared to other models that we've reviewed. Also the two hand Effortless Cleaning with Smart Mapping Robot Vacuums vac attachments don't fit into the base and are easily lost.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Apart from being a top-rated robotic vacuum in the market, this Samsung model also doubles as a home monitoring camera. It comes with a lens you can access via your smartphone and is designed to monitor the area around your home. You can set a schedule to have it patrol your home when you are gone. This is especially useful for pet owners who shed or you want to watch out for anyone who might be sneaking into.

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 dirt bin, and five layers of filtration. It's an excellent option for those who want an excellent vacuum that performs well on hard floors, but does not mind a little dust on carpets.

The advanced obstacle avoidance of this robot is one of its best features. It makes use of sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and detect objects. It can either navigate around the object or declares it an unfriendly zone on the map. This feature isn't found on many other robots and makes the Samsung the most secure choice for your home.

On the other hand, this model doesn't do well with spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice grains on low-pile carpet and sending the robot in to clean. The robot did a poor job of pushing the rice grains around, and failed to remove any of them. This is a disappointing outcome considering that other models did better in the tests.

It's worth mentioning, too, that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap in comparison to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar performance for less. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for example is a top-rated robot vacuum that has the same features at a fraction of the price.

The SmartThings application is used to control the robot, as well as other Samsung smart products. The setup process is easy with prompts in the app to guide you through it. The app allows you to view the map, create cleaning schedules, adjust suction, choose no-go zones and also manage other settings. It also shows you the current status of the robot and when the dustbin needs to be emptied.
