The high-end iRobot Roomba Combo 10 Max is available for $779 via Wellbots as part of a Memorial Day promotion. That's a giant discount of $620. This is exclusive to Engadget readers, so enter the code ENGD620 at checkout to secure the deal. The Roomba Combo 10 Max is one of the company's most advanced robovacs. It comes with all kinds of bells and whistles, including a mop, a self-emptying bin and an autowash dock. That's right. It'll wash and dry the mop pads all on its own. At the time of its release last year, this was the first robot vacuum on the market that could do that. The software is also advanced enough to know which areas of the home get dirtiest fastest, adjusting cleaning power accordingly. It also boosts suction power when rolling over a carpet, which is something pet owners will likely be happy about. All adjustments are made via the iRobot app, and this app will even let people know when it's time for a manual maintenance task. The mopping tank holds enough water for seven continuous days of use, which is nice, and the debris gets off-loaded into an enclosed bag for easy disposal. The only downside with this model is the exorbitant $1,399 asking price. Luckily, this deal has taken care of that.

ZDNET's key takeaways The Roborock Saros Z70 is now available for purchase for $2,599.The Saros Z70 is the first robot vacuum with a mechanical arm to lift lightweight objects and clean those missed areasThis robot vacuum performs impressively well, but you can expect some bugs with the OmniGrip mechanical arm function. View now at Roborock The Roborock Saros Z70 is currently on sale at Roborock for $1,999 for Memorial Day, down $600 from the usual price of $2,599.I've spent the past few years of my life turning my home into the closest version of the Jetsons' house that I can get, bypassing the midcentury decor and flying cars. While I'm pleased to report that many of the predictions made by the 1960s sitcom have materialized over the decades, many remain unrealized. The biggest one? Rosie the Robot. Also: This midrange robot vacuum cleans as well as some flagship models - and it's 50% offThankfully, many companies are rallying behind the effort to create a household assistant robot. However, after being lucky enough to test the Roborock Saros Z70 with a mechanical arm, I believe Roborock has a definite edge on the competition. While other companies have created different kinds of household robots, the Saros Z70 is a multifunctional robot that could be a stepping stone to the future of smart homes.  details View at Us.roborock The Roborock Saros Z70 is a premium robot vacuum and mop with all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a flagship, plus a mechanical arm to pick up objects. And I can't dive into a review of this product without immediately focusing on this robotic grip. When the robot vacuum is cleaning, it detects small obstacles it can handle and picks them up. The robot then navigates to a predetermined area to drop off the item. Then, the device returns to the spot the object occupied and resumes cleaning the area.  Maria Diaz/ZDNETThe Saros Z70 comes with a Roborock bin that you can place in your home for your robot to drop soft items into. It's a rigid cardboard bin that looks like a small trash bin you'd see under a desk or in a bathroom. After your robot creates a virtual map of your home, you place the bin and you add it to the map in the Roborock mobile app. You can also add a larger area for your robot to drop off other items, like slippers and light shoes. The biggest question, of course, is: does the mechanical arm work as intended? After testing it in my home, I'm pleased to report that it does -- at least the vast majority of the time.Also: I invested in this 3-in-1 robot vacuum, and it's paying off for my homeTo test the OmniGrip mechanical arm, I set out ten obstacles around the house several times and ran full cleanings. I also did smaller area cleanings with fewer objects. The robot vacuum sees the object and gives a voice prompt to announce it's going to sort an item. It deploys the mechanical arm and lines itself up to pick up the item.  The Roborock Saros Z70's OmniGrip mechanical arm can be remotely controlled to pick up and drop off items at will. Maria Diaz/ZDNETOnce the arm grips the item, the robot travels to drop it off. It lines itself up with the bin or designated sorting area and releases the object, then retracts the arm. Also: My picks for the best robot vacuums for pet hair of 2025: Roomba, Eufy, Ecovacs, and moreIn my tests, the Roborock mechanical arm picked up the intended objects 83% of the time. This is a great number for a robot that is effectively introducing this type of technology to the market. It's also a great number when you consider that the robot's initial rollout has a very limited number of items it can recognize and pick up.  Maria Diaz/ZDNETRoborock says the Saros Z70 currently recognizes socks, sandals, crumpled tissues, and towels under 300g (about eight ounces), and that new sortable objects will be added continuously via firmware updates. When I only used the recognizable objects, the robot gripped and relocated 90% of the items. When I added other small obstacles, like shoes, small cups, and plastic film, it gripped 75% of the objects.Also: This Ecovacs robot vacuum and mop is a sleeper hit, and it handles carpeting like a champAs a robot vacuum and mop, the Roborock Saros Z70's performance is outstanding -- I have zero qualms with it. It is one of the best robot vacuum and mop combos I've ever tested. It has the best obstacle avoidance feature I've seen thus far, so it doesn't get stuck on random objects, and it has an extendable mop pad to clean near edges. The robot also cleans quite thoroughly, much like the Saros 10 and Saros 10R, so you can count on it reaching pretty much every foot of your home.  Maria Diaz/ZDNETI did encounter some bugs with the robot's OmniGrip performance, but I can't fault Roborock for them. Aside from the fact that no robot vacuum is perfect (and this one nearly is), these bugs can be attributed to the fact that this is really new technology. Some bugs included the robot only vacuuming and "forgetting" to resume mopping after dropping off an object, and dropping objects that were hard to grip, like kids' water shoes.ZDNET's buying advice Maria Diaz/ZDNETThe Roborock Saros Z70 isn't the right robot vacuum for most shoppers. Instead, this robot vacuum and mop is perfect for early adopters who enjoy testing the newest cutting-edge technologies. As the first robot vacuum with a mechanical arm to be widely available on the market, you can expect to encounter bugs with the Saros Z70 -- it's only natural.Also: This robot vacuum might be better at cleaning than me - and I'm a neat freakEven so, I was thoroughly impressed with the robot's cleaning performance and the OmniGrip technology. I was also impressed with Roborock's fast and widespread launch of this robot after announcing it late last year. The Roborock Saros Z70 is the next level in robot vacuum technology, and it's pioneering the idea of a functional, multipurpose household robot that you can truly rely on.However, it is quite expensive. The Saros Z70 will vacuum and mop like the best robot vacuums on the market. But you must be aware that you're not paying for a robot vacuum alone; you're paying for the innovation of having a future-forward robot in your home.  When will this deal expire?

Rated “Excellent” in our 2021 JBL Charge 5 review, it’s built to survive dust, water, and plenty of adventures while still packing a serious punch.

Overall, it’s a solid choice and has a steep discount of over $250.Earbud DealsWith the Google Pixel Buds Pro earbuds, your playlists will gain a little extra thump while ANC scrubs all that background noise, allowing you to listen to podcasts without distortion. Bass remains bold without muddying vocals, and the wireless charging case tops them up between sessions. Meanwhile, it has a comfortable fit for long stretches. Hands-free Google Assistant means texts and timers can happen without touching your phone, which is especially helpful when you've got your hands full or are elbow-deep in cooking. Meanwhile, multipoint pairing switches audio from the laptop to the Pixel during Zoom calls. That’s why our expert, Tim Gideon, rated them “Good” in our 2022 Pixel Buds Pro review. Also good? About $90 in savings. Streaming Device DealsThe Roku Express 4K+ offers easy access to your favorite shows and you’ll love its straightforward interface that keeps your navigation hassle-free. With support for AirPlay 2, you can mirror your content from your iPhone seamlessly. Plus, its affordable price makes premium 4K streaming achievable for anyone.

Its elegant design fits smoothly into your workspace with responsive backlighting and excellent battery life. With Smart Actions, you can automate tasks that save you time and reduce repetitive steps. The built-in USB-C charging is convenient and reliable. “If you're looking for an Apple Magic Keyboard alternative or are in the market for a new productivity daily driver, the MX Keys S is a great low-profile keyboard,” our expert Zackery Cuevas raved. He went on to give this one a “Good” rating in our 2023 review. Overall, this low-profile keyboard elevates your routine with practical features that make each keystroke both satisfying and efficient for just under $90. Fitness Tracker DealsThe Fitbit Inspire 2 is a great place to start if you're just getting into fitness tracking, especially at $43. It's super light, doesn’t scream “tech gadget,” and tracks your steps, sleep, and heart rate with barely any input from you. With 10-day battery life, you can forget to charge it for a week and still be covered. “It's a good, wallet-friendly option if you're just starting out on your fitness journey,” said Angela Moscaritolo in her “Good” rated 2021 Inspire 2 review. Plus, the free month of Fitbit Premium for new users is a legit bonus if you want guided workouts or mindfulness content.Recommended by Our EditorsMicrophone DealsThe HyperX QuadCast S is a must-have if you're into any kind of audio content creation. Our expert Will Greenwald calls it, "A gaming-focused USB microphone designed for streamers, Let's Players, podcasters, and anyone who might be putting themselves out on YouTube or Twitch." It has crisp, clear sound quality and supports multiple recording patterns, making it versatile for different setups. The built-in pop filter and adjustable gain control are super handy, and it even comes with customizable RGB lighting to match your style. With an "Excellent" rating in our 2020 HyperX QuadCast S review and an Editors' Choice award, it's one of the best USB mics out there, now at a 25% discount.Smartphone DealsFor only $40, the Galaxy A15 5G punches way above its weight. You get smooth everyday performance, a vibrant AMOLED screen, and bonus points for that microSD slot and headphone jack. Those features are rare even in pricier phones. Battery life is legit too; we streamed for hours and still had juice left. You will definitely find the cameras worth it, especially the main shooter. “The Galaxy A15 5G is one of the best Android phones you can get,” says PCMag's expert Iyaz Akhtar, who rated it “Excellent” in his Galaxy A15 review while giving it the Editors’ Choice award. If you're on a tight budget, this is the one to beat right now.Processor DealsThe AMD Ryzen 7 7700x is a fast and powerful processor with excellent eight-core performance that excels in single-threaded tasks and performs well in multi-threaded ones, making it ideal for demanding applications. It also includes integrated graphics, providing a solid option for light gaming or general display needs. "It's a very solid chip," said our expert, Michael Sexton, in 2022, rating it “Excellent” in his Ryzen 7 7700x review. The performance is competitive with its peers, and its lower power consumption is an advantage for efficiency. Overall, it’s a great choice if you desire strong performance without investing heavily in higher-end models, especially at this sale price.Security Camera DealsSetting up the Google Nest Cam (Battery) is a breeze. You can mount it pretty much anywhere without messing with wires. The magnetic base makes it super easy to adjust the angle or pop it off for charging. You’ll get crisp, colorful 1080p video and surprisingly sharp night vision, which is great for checking on your porch or driveway after dark. It even sends alerts for people, animals, or vehicles. As our expert John R. Delaney puts it in our 2021 Nest Cam review, “If you’re in the market for a security camera that installs in minutes and offers a good selection of features—particularly if you already use other Nest Devices and/or Google Assistant—put the Nest Cam on your short list." It earned an “Excellent,” as does today's near $50 discount.Robot Vacuum DealsThe iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ is a versatile robot vacuum and mop that effectively cleans various surfaces without wetting carpets, thanks to its retractable mop. It excels at both vacuuming and mopping, with features like AI-powered obstacle avoidance and a pet waste-avoidance guarantee. Ideal for homes with mixed flooring, it offers convenient app controls, auto-emptying, and voice command integration. In our Roomba Combo j7+ review, our expert Angela Moscaritolo said in 2023, "If you have a mix of hard flooring and carpets at home, the Roomba Combo j7+ is worth it." With the $236 discount, it's a steal!Monitor DealsThe 43-inch Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 monitor feels like you dropped a living-room TV on your desk, only for shooters instead of sitcoms. As Zackery Cuevas notes, “Indeed, for the most part, it’s an impressive screen with vibrant mini LED backlighting.” The picture smacks you with mini-LED punch, deep contrast, and a 144 Hz refresh that keeps Valorant razor-smooth while AMD FreeSync stomps tearing. Input lag is practically invisible at around 4 ms. Cloud-leaning Gaming Hub is a cool bonus for quick Xbox Pass sessions. Therefore, it earned a “Good” rating in our 2023 Odyssey Neo G7 review. But a $225 discount qualifies this as a great deal!Game Console DealsAs our lead analyst, Will Greenwald, said in 2023, “The refined PS5 remains a top-tier console.” This PlayStation 5 Disc Console Slim fits right into your living room, especially if you're short on space. It has a big 1TB drive to store more of your favorite titles, with the popular Astro Bot game already included. Whether you’re diving into the latest blockbusters or streaming classic shows, you'll find everything runs smoothly. The streamlined design makes it a conversation piece, too. It’s also simpler to place horizontally than before. That’s why it got an “Excellent” rating in our PS5 Slim review, and it’s even an Editors’ Choice winner, so you know you’re getting a standout system that handles your entertainment needs without any hassle, now for $110 less.Photo Printer DealsIf you’re itching to take photos from your phone and stick them on the fridge, the Instax Link Wide makes it ridiculously easy, especially with this $50 price cut. Pair over Bluetooth, drop a shot into the app, add a collage frame or goofy sticker, and in half a minute, a wide-format print pops out. The printed colors punch hard, and the gloss finish screams retro cool. As our lead analyst Jim Fisher says, “If you're tired of just looking at photos on your phone's screen, or just yearn for the days of Polaroid snapshots, this instant film printer might be the right remedy.” Consumables aren’t cheap, but for scrapbooks, party favors, or instant desk décor, this printer is straight-up joy, earning an Excellent rating in our 2021 Instax Link Wide review.We’re finding Memorial Day Deals everywhere, from retailers like Amazon to top brands like Apple, HP, and Dell.. And don’t forget to check out all of the Memorial Day Deals Under $100 and Under $50. But, if you’re looking for something more specific, we’ve rounded up the following holiday deals for you:

Do you want to save some time, money, and energy? A new robot vacuum can do that for you, week in and week out. There are all different kinds of models out there, including robot vacuums, robot mops, and hybrid versions that both vacuum and mop. No matter what your home needs, chances are there's an early Memorial Day deal for you. That's right – we're currently seeing mega markdowns on some of our favorite robotic household helpers. The sooner you can clean up one of these great deals, the sooner you can cut down on your chore time (and that means more time for summer fun). So, let's take a deeper look at the best on-sale robotic floor cleaning machines, with more to come. iRobot Vacuum DealsEarning our Editors' Choice award for high-end robot vacuums, the iRobot Roomba j9+ boasts strong suction power, camera vision-based navigation, and class-leading obstacle avoidance. Not only is it smart enough to avoid things like pet waste and automatically adjust suction according to dirt levels, but it also learns which areas tend to be dirty and prioritizes those spots first in future cleaning runs. When you combine the exceptional vacuuming performance with the ability to self-empty and ample app features, it's more than worth the high price tag, according to our expert reviewer Andrew Gebhart – so with an outrageous 56% discount, it's a downright steal!Eufy Vacuum DealsThe Eufy Robot Vacuum 11S Max is an affordable robot vacuum that doesn't sacrifice performance for price. It's one of our favorite budget-friendly models, as it provides strong and efficient cleaning capabilities across various floor types in a quiet and compact machine. In fact, it's small enough to fit under most furniture in your home (which is where the most dust tends to collect). You won't find many fancy features, but at a sale price of just $160, it gets the job done well without breaking the bank.Recommended by Our EditorsRobot Mop DealsIf you're after sparkly clean floors, then the iRobot Braava Jet M6 is for you. It's a highly capable robot mop that can also sweep dirt and debris off your floors, covering up to 1,000 square feet in a single session. It left floors noticeably cleaner after both dry sweeping and wet mopping use during our testing and demonstrated expert navigation, including the ability to avoid carpets. While more of a robot mop than robot vacuum, we recommend this for anyone who mainly has hardwood floors or tile as it can be equally (if not more) effective – and with a $200 discount, now is the time to check it out.These early Memorial Day robo vac and mop deals are just getting started – keep checking back as we'll be updating with new deals throughout the week.

ZDNET's key takeaways The new Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni originally launched for $799, but is on sale at $400This midrange robot vacuum and mop features auto-emptying, mop washing and drying, and strong suction, which we were able to confirm during testingThe downside is that the Deebot N30 Omni doesn't boast the best obstacle avoidance capabilities, which significantly hinders how often you have to rescue it after it gets stuck on a small object. $399.99 at Amazon The Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni is currently on sale for $400, a 50% discount off its full price of $800.I've tested robot vacuums in all price ranges, and if I were in the market for one, I'd go with a midrange model. These robot vacuums typically range between $400 and $1,000, a decidedly affordable alternative to a flagship vacuum that costs $1,800 or $1,900.Also: This Ecovacs robot vacuum and mop is a sleeper hit, and it handles carpeting like a champBecause you're compromising on price, you can also expect to compromise on features. Some units, however, are rare unicorns in the market, with high-end features for a surprisingly affordable price. Such is the case with the new Ecovacs N20 Series and the Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni, which are priced at $550 and $800, respectively. details View at Amazon Ecovacs refers to these robot vacuums as "entry-level," but they're more midrange in pricing than anything else. The features, however, align with more high-end models nearing the $2,000 mark.Also: My picks for the best robot vacuums for pet hair of 2025: Roomba, Eufy, Ecovacs, and moreI've been testing the Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni for a couple of weeks, subjecting it to different kinds of obstacles and debris. It performs much better than you'd expect for an $800 robot vacuum and mop, with some caveats.The Deebot N30 Omni features 10,000Pa suction power and a Zero Tangle brush roller that easily scoops up pet hair and debris. One of its two rotating mop pads can extend into corners, using Ecovacs' TruEdge Adaptive Edge mopping technology to thoroughly clean corners often missed by robot vacuums and mops. Maria Diaz/ZDNETThe Omni station seems to perform as well as the Deebot X2 Omni (priced at $1,500 at launch). During a cleaning session, the robot periodically docks itself to wash its mop pads and then returns to continue cleaning. It also automatically empties its dustbin into a large dustbag inside the dock, which you only have to change every 75 days.Also: This robot vacuum might be better at cleaning than me - and I'm a neat freakThis type of hands-free convenience typically costs over $1,000. A lower price typically implies some compromises, and the N30 Omni is no exception, as I found when I subjected it to controlled and typical home environment testing. Ecovacs/ZDNETIn my controlled testing, I found that the Deebot N30 Omni was about 83% as effective at picking up all the debris on hard floors, a pretty decent performance for its price range. That means the robot can pick up most dust, pet hair, crumbs, or debris on your floors in a single cleaning session.Also: This robot mower has no boundary wire or antenna - here's how it handled my yardThe biggest drawback comes in this robot vacuum and mop's ability to avoid obstacles. The Deebot N30 doesn't feature top-of-the-line LiDAR sensors or AI-powered obstacle avoidance, but I wouldn't expect these in a robot in this price range. Maria Diaz/ZDNETThis N30 robot vacuum was prone to getting its brush roller stuck on small obstacles, like socks and toys, strewn about the floor, about 33% of the time. I did a test with pet waste, and it either pushed it or tried to vacuum it up half the time. If the pet waste were real, then the robot would have likely spread it all over my house, which would have been atrocious.Also: I tested a robot vacuum with zero-tangling technology - here's my buying advice after a monthHigh-end models feature more advanced obstacle avoidance, including additional pet waste avoidance features. Some, like the iRobot Roomba Combo J7+ and Dreame X40 Ultra, even use AI-powered visual recognition to discern what pet waste is and what a dust bunny is. You'll have to pay more for these extra obstacle avoidance features. Maria Diaz/ZDNETAlthough the robot creates a map of an area within a few minutes upon setup, I also found that it only stuck to its original map about 70% of the time. Other times, it skipped spots or didn't cover the entire floor area, leaving untouched lines between its paths. This is also common with many robot vacuums, even far more expensive ones. Also: This $80 device is probably the only indoor security camera you'll needRunning it in my home, which isn't a controlled environment and is subject to a lot of activity from three kids and a dog, I found the robot performed similarly to the controlled testing. For example, it confirmed the obstacle avoidance shortcomings by getting stuck on an extension cord during its first cleaning after mapping.ZDNET's buying adviceThe Ecovacs Deebot N30 Omni is a workhorse for homes with high dirt and pet hair, provided your pets are trained to go potty outside. The N30 features outstanding 10,000Pa suction that was effective against dust, pet hair, and Cheerios in my home and kept my floors clean daily. It also features a long battery life, with up to 320 minutes on a single charge.The Deebot N30 Omni and N20 Omni are perfect for anyone looking to upgrade from an entry-level or budget robot vacuum. This is especially true if you don't have kids who leave stuff all over your home or you don't mind getting your cords off the floor before a cleaning session. What are the tariffs in the US? The recent US tariffs on imports from countries like China, Vietnam, and India aim to boost domestic manufacturing but are likely to drive up prices on consumer electronics. Products like smartphones, laptops, and TVs may become more expensive as companies rethink global supply chains and weigh the cost of shifting production.Consumers may also experience notable price increases on robot vacuums and smart home products. Manufacturers are exploring options such as relocating production to countries with lower tariffs, but such transitions are complex and may not provide immediate relief. In the short term, shoppers should anticipate higher costs for robot vacuums due to these trade policies. Show more When will this deal expire?

We may earn a commission from links on this page.When I bought my first robot vacuum, I thought my floors would thereafter be effortlessly spotless—endlessly patrolled by a 24/7 custodian, with absolutely no work required on my part. Today, there are never less than three robot vacuum cleaners installed in my small home at any given time. And yet I am definitely not doing nothing to keep my floors clean. While I’m certainly doing less daily upkeep, I would not say my floors are spotless, nor that I have been alleviated of all floor-related housework. Here’s what I wish I’d known about what robot vacuums can and can't do, and how much human effort they require.

For your robot vacuum, you might have to. While these robots have gotten much better at navigation, the less there is on the floor, the easier it will be for them to clean. Each table leg, chair and floor lamp is another obstacle to be worked around, and it’s worth knowing that most robots can’t get as close to table legs and floor lamps as you would be able to with a stick vacuum. Nor can they move a piece of furniture aside to get under it. As such, you will have to make some changes to your floor plan if you want to make the most of your new robot friend. More important than furniture relocation is the trend of having less on the floor, generally. If you like to let a laundry pile accumulate, have potted plants or a stack of books, you’ll end up relocating those items to give your robot better access. Corded items are particularly tricky, so the less cords on the floor, the better. Over time, I’ve learned to suspend the cords from the wall, and keep them wound as much as possible so nothing trails on the floor. I was recently quite impressed with the Roborock 10R, which relied solely on AI assisted cameras. The navigation skills of the robot were great, allowing it to venture into tight and low spaces that other robots hadn't. Robot vacuums can't clean near their docks the robot can't navigate around the Eureka tower, so debris accumulates around it Credit: Amanda Blum It's an unsurprising fact that robot vacuums can only clean where they can reach. Where they can’t reach, you’ll still see dirt and debris. All robot cleaners have a dock of some sort, and many now come with self emptying towers, which usually work exceptionally well at emptying the robots of dirt so you don’t have to do it manually. Given all of this automation, it's a bit ironic that the dirtiest place in your home might well be right around the tower or dock itself. As these towers are usually tucked into a corner or small space, detritus can easily accumulate around them, but the robot can’t move around the tower to clean it up. As the robot returns to the dock, it sweeps dirt with it, and it all eventually winds up at the foot of the tower.  This Roomba can't navigate into the small space underneath this plant stand, so instead it just kicks debris into the space. Credit: Amanda Blum Only the latest robots (like the 3i S10 Ultra) are at all good at cleaning around the base of pieces of furniture and thresholds between rooms. With most robots, you'll usually still find a band of dust and grime against the wall and around any items that the robot can’t easily clean. And then there are all the spaces too narrow or too low for the robot to slide into. While a few robots, like the Narwal Freo Z, have a fluffy pad that’ll occasionally rub against the base board to dust it, they don't do any real cleaning, so you’ll need to clean your baseboards manually, too. Again, you can rearrange your space to allow the robot more autonomy by making sure any spaces you want to be cleaned allow clearance of at least 1.5 times the width of the robot, and enough vertical height that the robot can reach it.This is always going to be a bit of a losing game, however, which is why I still have a stick vacuum I use to quickly suck up debris from narrow spots the robot can’t reach, the corners and edges that the robot can get close enough to, and against the wall and thresholds. Robots are best at vacuuming up only certain types of debrisThe same way you might organize before a visit from a cleaning professional, you’ll find yourself pre-sweeping for your robot. While robots are reliable at getting up dust and small detritus like rice or cereal, they’re not great at large debris, which means anything larger than a standard dice cube. Pieces of mulch, pet toy fluff, kitchen scraps, bobby pins, and pocket change will all get caught in a robot's rollers and need to be fished out. Pre-sweeping is a way to avoid that annoying task by getting up larger items of debris and leaving the rest for the bot. (But once again allow me to praise the 3i S10 Ultra, which has excelled at vacuuming up larger debris than any other robot vacuum I'd ever tested.)Even if your robot vacuum has a mop, you'll need to mop manually This Roborock is starting to get up the muddy pawprints, but it takes many passes Credit: Amanda Blum Most robot vacuums are now combo vacuums and mops.Some models are great at mopping—sometimes even better than they are at vacuuming. The docking tower empties the mop of dirty water, fills it with clean water, and sanitizes everything afterward. With the combined functions of vacuuming and mopping your floors will surely be clean, right? Not necessarily. Robot mops are great at cleaning up surface spills. What they’re less good at is scrubbing away stains and compound floor messes like mud or spilled food. While most robots can mostly get muddy paw prints up after a number of passes, doing so requires a lot of water, battery life, and time, and I’ve yet to find a single robot mop that is good at getting grime out of tile or wood floors. The robot simply can’t put enough pressure on the mop to really scrub the floor. For these reasons, you’ll need to keep an old-fashioned mop around, and you should expect to have to give the floor a good, hardy mop every few days and use real elbow grease to get out grime. Once the floor is clean, repeated patrols by the robot mop can help stave off new grime deposits, but they’re inevitable, so don’t assume your mopping days are over. If mopping is your priority, I recommend highly Roborock models that have a singular vibrating mop pad, versus twin spinning mops. The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra remains one of my top recommendations. Robot vacuums are slowWith most robot vacuums working with voice assistants like Google, Alexa, or Apple, its well within the realm of possibility to simply ask the robot to “clean up around the high chair” after dinner (presuming you’ve set up a zone around the high chair, and it is always in the same approximate spot). If you’ve got such a routine set up, the robot will begin whatever pre-deployment practices it has, whether that’s filling the water resivior or orienting or cleaning the mop head, and eventually will amble over to the intended spot and proceed to take its time cleaning. Though still not particularly fast in getting to the spot you pin, Roborock's Pin and Go feature allows you to quickly place a pin on your floor map and the robot will proceed immediately to that spot to clean. This feature is available on all premium Roborock models, including the latest Saros 10 and 10R.

But if your kid spills a cup of orange juice on the floor, you might not be willing to wait the five to 10 minutes it will take the robot to get to the spot in question and start cleaning when you could grab a mop or towel and be done in under a minute. For that reason, I'm still happy to have a Narwal S20, a newer model stick mop I can quickly grab, mop as needed, and then put back on the dock, all without having to get my hands dirty.  Robot vacuums occasionally require human interventionRobot vacuums can range wildly in price (from $200 to $2,500) and quality, and they are getting more intelligent and feature-rich all the time. Robots that have AI on board can actually learn about your home and get better at cleaning it over time. Despite all of that, however, your robot will need your intervention more than you’d like. Depending on how good a model you own, you will likely need to routinely unclog the rollers (the most common robot vacuum maintenance task). Your robot will also get stuck—sometimes because there is a new obstacle for it to navigate around, like a waylaid toy or sock, or a loose cord under the couch the robot gets stuck on it. Sometimes, it will simply gets lost. The bottom line is, even the best robots can’t be left on their own for weeks at a time. Most will require a human around eventually to get them back to the dock, clear the rollers, unclog it any clogs in the mopping system, and/or change the water in the dock. If all of this hasn't scared you away from getting one, your goal should be to choose a robot that matches your home and needs, and that enough features that you won't be following it around every day, making sure it does its job.
