The robot will automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode based on its bin contents.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner that comes with plenty of features at a reasonable price. It has a long running time and does a great job of cleaning carpeted or bare floors. It is a great app and is well combined with Alexa. However, it does not have the ability to map and other advanced controls of expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum is equipped with a powerful motor and a multi-surface brush roller to get into the corners and cracks. It will ensure that your home is well cleaned. It also includes bumper sensors to keep out collisions and a lower cliff sensor that prevents the robot from falling down stairs. It can even be programmed to operate a single room or set of rooms in scheduled intervals. It is also capable of resuming cleaning sessions that were stopped midway through.

While the Shark ION is very effective on clean floors, it does struggle to pick up pet hair and other fine particles on carpeted areas. It is also prone to getting stuck under furniture. It is capable of avoiding obstructions and has a runtime of 90 minutes.

One of the best things about this robot is its simple-to-use interface. There's a circular cleaning button at the top of the unit, which you can press to start the cleaning process, or you can use your phone to launch the Shark ION app and give it a voice command. The app will tell you how much battery remaining and the status of the vacuum. It will also tell you if the cleaning process is complete or not.

Many of the customers also appreciated the fact that this vacuum is compatible with Alexa. You can turn this vacuum on and off using the simple voice command and you can use the app to schedule cleaning times. The only thing we didn't love about this model was that it took a little more time to charge as compared to other models that we've looked at. Also, the two hand vac attachments don't fit into the base and can easily be lost.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

This Samsung model is not only an excellent robotic vacuum cleaner and also functions as a camera to monitor your home. It has a camera that you can access via your smartphone and is designed to monitor your home's surroundings. You can even create a schedule of when you want it to patrol your home while you are away. This is a great option for pet owners who shed or you want to watch out for anyone who might be sneaking into.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is equipped with a range of features, including object recognition and home monitoring, self-emptying bins for dust and five layers of filtration. It's a good option for those who want an excellent vacuum that performs well on hard floors, but isn't afraid of a little dust on carpets.

One of the most impressive features of this robot is its sophisticated obstacle avoidance. It utilizes sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and identify items. It can either navigate around the object or marks it as a no go zone on the map. This feature isn't available on other robots, making Samsung the best option for your home.

This model isn't very efficient in spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice grains on carpet with a low pile and then sending the robot to clean. The machine did a poor job at pushing the rice grains and failed to take any of them. This is a disappointing outcome in light of the fact that other models did better in the tests.

It's also worth mentioning that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap, especially considering its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar quality for less. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for example is a highly rated robotic vacuum that has similar features for half the cost.

As with other Samsung smart devices, this robot is controlled by the SmartThings app. The setup process is simple with prompts in the app to guide you through the process. The app lets you look at the map, set the cleaning schedules and adjust suction power, select no-go zones, and manage other settings. It also shows you the current status of the robot and when the dustbin must be emptied.
