The Best Robot Vacuums for 2025

The Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni vacuums thoroughly, with strong suction power and efficient LiDAR navigation. It also mops with a roller that refreshes itself as it works to limit cross-contamination. After each cleaning run, the base station empties the robot's dustbin and then washes and dries the mop with hot water and hot air. In short, it does everything you want from a high-end hybrid, and while not cheap, it costs less than a few other premium models on this list.

If you're willing to pay a premium for a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop that effectively cleans your floors and maintains itself, the Deebot X8 Pro Omni is our top pick. With efficient navigation, long battery life, and the ability to store multiple maps, it's a good fit for large, multi-level homes. It handles pet hair without tangles, so it's suitable for homes with shedding animals. Its predecessor, the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni, previously held this spot and is still an excellent option, but the X8 Pro Omni updates the mop design for better hardwood cleaning, increases the suction power, and adds a separate detergent dispenser for mopping solution and an extendable side brush.

The Roomba j9+ uses a camera and machine learning technology to recognize and avoid obstacles as it works. It also learns which rooms in your home tend to be dirtier, and will prioritize those places first on future runs. After it learns its way around, it will navigate your home with ease and efficiency, moving gracefully around chair legs and into corners. The Roomba j9+ series also offers best-in-class obstacle avoidance, with the ability to steer clear of common household objects like slippers, pet toys, and pet waste better than the competition. When it recognizes an obstacle, it snaps a picture that you can review in the app to easily create a Keep Out Zone for future runs. Add in strong cleaning power and long battery life, and the Roomba j9+ checks all the boxes for a premium robot vacuum.

If you want a premium standalone robot vacuum with standout obstacle avoidance and a poop-evasion guarantee, the Roomba j9+ is the choice for you.

The TP-Link Tapo RV30 Max Plus robot vacuum and mop brings important features like LiDAR navigation and a self-emptying dustbin to an affordable price. These features significantly improve convenience and efficiency, and the RV30 Max Plus backs up its feature list with capable cleaning prowess. It's particularly adept at capturing large crumbs and pet hair. You can control it with an app or voice commands via Alexa or Google Assistant, and its mop attachment does a decent job of scrubbing your floors.

The Tapo RV30 Max Plus is an affordable 2-in-1 robot floor cleaner that doesn't feel like a compromise. It has you covered for all the basics.

The Dreame X30 Ultra robot mop and vacuum is a solid performer and practically maintenance-free. As expected for a high-end model, the X30 Ultra empties its dustbin when it returns to its base station. Like some others, it also washes and dries its own mop pads. Beyond that, the base station even washes its own basin, taking one more chore off your plate. It also takes a relatively unique approach to managing its mop pads as it can automatically remove them when it senses high-pile carpeting or at your command, then reattach them when necessary. While cleaning, the X30 Ultra vacuums with an impressive 8,300Pa of suction and extends its mop pads to reach under cabinets and furniture. After each mopping run, the base automatically refills the robot's internal tank with fresh water and adds a dose of detergent so it's ready for the next job.

If money is no object and you want a robot vacuum and mop that requires very little help from you, the Dreame X30 Ultra is a top contender. It's our recommendation if you have high-pile carpets that can’t get wet or you're simply willing to pay more to minimize cross-contamination.

The iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ is the first floor-cleaning robot with a fully retractable mop. When the pricey 2-in-1 detects carpet, it automatically lifts its mopping plate out of the way, rests it on top of the device where it has no risk of wetting carpets, and continues vacuuming. By comparison, Roborock's similar VibraRise mop-lifting system only works well on low-pile carpets because it doesn't lift high enough to avoid medium- and high-pile rugs. The Roomba j7+ series also features a self-emptying dustbin, AI-powered obstacle avoidance, and a poop-evasion guarantee.

With all the standard Roomba j7+ features plus mopping abilities, this Combo model is an excellent option for homes with a mix of hard floors and carpeting. Some high-end hybrids require less maintenance, but the Combo j7+ is the best option if you have light-colored carpeting thanks to its fully retractable mop.

The Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo N8 Pro+ mops, vacuums, and empties its own dustbin. It is also quiet, efficient, and works in neat, orderly rows. It even senses carpet and increases suction accordingly. With 2,600Pa of suction, the Deebot Ozmo N8 Pro+ isn't quite as powerful as current high-end models, and it lacks some self-maintenance perks like automatic mop washing and drying, but it's still a versatile 2-in-1 robot vacuum that cleans well.

Now regularly on sale for less than its launch price, the Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo N8 Pro+ is an excellent buy if you're looking for a hybrid robot vacuum with self-emptying capabilities on the cheap.

The Roborock Qrevo Curv can both vacuum and mop, empty its own dustbin, and wash and dry its own mop pads. Most notably, the Qrevo Curv has a unique set of wheels that can actually lift the robot over thresholds as tall as 1.6 inches. While not intended to climb stairs, the lifting body allows the Qrevo Curv to easily navigate multi-level floors. The wheels even help the robot lift itself over cords and other obstacles to avoid getting stuck. Beyond the lifting wheels, the Qrevo Curv has an extendable mop arm and side brush. The two combined did a better job of cleaning along edges and into corners than any other robot vacuum that we've tested.

If you have a multi-level floorplan and want a premium robot cleaner that can traverse it easily, the Roborock Qrevo Curv could be the right choice for you. This is also a strong pick if you prioritize thorough corner and edge cleaning, or your floors have a lot of hard-to-reach crevices that collect dust and debris.

The Ecovacs Deebot X9 Pro Omni adds Blast vacuuming to the company's successful formula for high-end hybrids. Blast stands for boosted large-airflow suction technology, a refined engine and intake system to optimize airflow. This model excelled at our particle pickup tests, with an excellent score on the suction stress test in particular. Thanks to its Blast tech, the X9 is a capable vacuum for any flooring surface. It scrubs thoroughly, too, with a roller mop that refreshes itself as it works. The base station washes and dries the robot's mop and empties its dustbin. For voice control, this model works with Alexa and Google Assistant and has a built-in virtual assistant.

If you're willing to pay top dollar for a robot that can get stubborn debris like sand and pet hair out of your carpets, the X9 is the model for you. It's more expensive than most other hybrids on this list, and you might not notice the difference if your carpets don't need that suction boost, but it backs up its power with capable navigation, obstacle avoidance, and well-rounded smarts.

The SwitchBot Mini K10+ packs handy features like smart navigation and self-emptying functionality into a compact body for an affordable price. Its petite frame allows it to fit in tight spaces and clean corners well. It also cleans dirt and dust with more power than you'd expect for such a small robot.

If you need a small robot vacuum that can clean in tight spaces and pick up stubborn dirt, the SwitchBot Mini K10+ fits the bill. This model works best for vacuuming and offers limited mopping functionality.

The Tapo RV20 navigates via LiDAR embedded in the front of its body. Without a tower for the sensor on top, it can fit under furniture more easily than all the other models on this list. Given its affordable price, the RV20 did surprisingly well at picking up large debris particles in our cleaning tests. It supports app control, scheduling, virtual walls, and voice control through Alexa and Google Assistant.

A robust suite of smart features and efficient navigation put the RV20 well ahead of similarly priced models, and its short stature makes it the perfect fit for your home if you have a lot of low-profile furniture to reach under.
