2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner that comes with an impressive amount of features at a reasonable price. It offers a long-lasting run time and it is able to clean carpeted floors as well as bare rooms. It also comes with a useful app and works well with Alexa. However, it isn't equipped with the mapping capabilities and other advanced controls of more expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum robot mop comes with a powerful motor as well as a multi-surface brush roller that can reach into cracks and corners. It will ensure that your home is thoroughly cleaned. It also includes bumper sensors to keep out collisions and the lower cliff sensor stops the robot from falling down the stairs. It can also be programmed to operate a single room or a group of rooms at regular intervals and is capable of resuming cleaning sessions were stopped midway through.

The Shark ION is very effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it has a difficult time to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It can also get stuck under furniture. It is capable of avoiding obstructions, and can run for up to 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 a cleaning session, or you can utilize your phone to open the Shark ION app and give it a voice-command. Once you've done that the app will display the current battery level and the status of the vacuum, and also if it's completed a complete or partial cleaning session.

Many of the customers also appreciated the fact that this vacuum is compatible with Alexa. The vacuum can be turned off and on with a simple voice command. You can also set up cleaning times with the app. The only downside we found with this robot is that it takes a bit longer to charge than the other models that we've examined, and that the two hand vac attachments don't fit inside the base and could get lost pretty easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

This Samsung model isn't just the top-rated robotic vacuum cleaner, but it also doubles as a camera to monitor your home. It has a camera that accessible via your phone and is built to monitor the surrounding area of your home. You can set a schedule to have it patrol your home while you are gone. This is great for pet owners who shed or if you wish to keep an eye out for anyone sneaking in.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is equipped with a range of features such as object recognition, home monitoring, self-emptying dust bins, and five layers filtering. It's a great choice for those looking for a premium model that can clean hard floors, but don't mind a little dust on carpets.

The robot's advanced obstacle avoidance is among its most effective features. It uses sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and identify items. It either navigates around the object or marks it as an unfriendly zone on the map. This feature is not available on other robots, making the Samsung a safe choice for your home.

This model isn't particularly Good Robot Vacuum in spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice particles on carpets with low pile and sending the robot to clean. The robot was unable to move or pick up 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 in comparison to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar quality and performance at a lower cost. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for example is a top-rated robot vacuum that offers the same features at half the cost.

Like other Samsung smart devices, this robot can be controlled via the SmartThings app. The setup process is simple with the app prompts that guide you through it. The app lets you see the map, set cleaning schedules and adjust suction power and select no-go zones and manage other settings.
