Robot Vacuum Reviews – How to Keep Your Robot Vacuum Clean

Many robot vacuums can be used with apps that let you control the device without holding it. These apps can help you plan cleaning sessions, set boundaries and create no-go zones.

Many of the robots we reviewed can automatically return to their base and recharge during a cleaning session which is beneficial for those who have a big house. Some also come with an automatic emptying of the dust bin and water tank to keep the robot clean and lessen the amount of allergens that can be found in your home.

Battery Life

If you have a big home, choose a robot that can run for up to an hour in normal operation. Many models come with an “eco” mode or lower-power cleaning that will save your battery while doing an excellent job in removing dirt and debris.

You can still keep your home tidy even if you live in a smaller space. Our top choice for small homes, the Neato Botvac 11S Max can run on bare floors for up to 90 minutes in Eco mode. It’s smaller than many of the robots we tested, so it can fit under furniture and into corners.

It is a good idea to select a robot with advanced features that allow you to customize the cleaning preferences of the robot based on the amount of traffic a certain area receives. You can create zones with high traffic to get stronger suction or more water levels. Some apps also offer the option of changing settings for each room, or even the floor of your house.

In addition to selecting an appropriate robot to your needs for cleaning, you should also perform routine maintenance tasks, such as emptying and filling the dustbin, checking the brushes for hair knots, as well as cleaning and draining the water tank. It’s also recommended to make use of the software updates provided by the manufacturer. These updates can help improve navigation algorithms and decrease unnecessary power consumption, extending the life of your battery robot.

Depending on the level of activity in your family depending on how busy your family is, it could be required to run your robot as often as three to four times per week. Emily Rairdin, a vacuum expert at University Vacuum & Sewing, says that a standard robot should last between three and five years, however the life expectancy of yours will depend on how well you care for it and how often you use it.

Some of the most advanced models that we have reviewed in our top robot vacuum reviews can be connected to smart speakers like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant that allow them to work completely hands-free. This is a great convenience, but you’ll have to share some of your personal data.

App Control

Many robots have a variety of control options through apps that let you create specific cleaning tasks, alter preferences, and plan sessions. Some are also compatible with digital assistants such as Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and other smart home voice-controlled systems for a completely hands-free experience.

Robots navigate by using a combination of cameras, sensors and lasers. They’re designed to locate and vacuum pet hair dirt, crumbs, and other messes from hard floors such as laminate, wood, and tile as well as carpets with low pile and area rug. They’re also built to avoid obstacles, such as furniture legs and pet food bowls, as they travel through your home.

As with all electronic devices, it’s important to keep up with the routine maintenance of your robot to ensure it’s operating correctly. If you clean the rotating brushes regularly (they can get tangled with dust and pet hair) and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines regarding the use and maintenance of your Robot Vacuum Mops. You should also replace the filters, batteries and wheels, most models last the same amount of time as a traditional full-size vacuum.

The majority of robots available on the market are capable of mapping and understanding your surroundings by using sensors, which will aid them in planning a more efficient route for every cleaning session. Certain models with higher end features allow you to create ‘no-go zones’ when there are certain areas you would like the robot to stay clear of, such as your pet’s food bowls or expensive rug.

Many robots have the feature of ‘targeted rooms that lets you direct the robot to clean a specific part of your home. This is a great feature when you have an abundance of clutter you want to clean up or if you have an area that requires more attention, such as the guest bedroom.

The majority of robots controlled by apps offer various automated features that make daily maintenance simpler. For instance, some come with self-emptying bins that return to their docks and empty themselves automatically once they’re full.

While the app-controlled Dreametech L10s Ultra did a excellent job at navigating our test courses but it struggled to spot obstacles that were obstructing its path and was unable to handle clogged rug tassels. Despite this, it’s an affordable and effective option for keeping a studio or small home tidy.

Cleaning Options

When the wheels of your robot vacuum become dirty or covered in hair, dust or other debris, they can’t move smoothly. This could cause it to slow, or even get stuck. To ensure they remain in good working order, wipe them clean with a soft cloth periodically. It’s important for mopping robots to take the pads off after each cleaning, wash them with water, and let dry before reinstalling. If you’re worried about the maintenance required opt for an option that automatically washes and dry the mopping pads after each cleaning session.

Some robots are designed to automatically empty their dust bins once they are full, and this can be a real boon when you have pets or kids. However, for the majority of models, the best way to make sure that the bin is ready for a new load of dirt or debris is to empty it manually. Look for a model with an ample bin that is easy to remove and dump and ensure that the base is able to hold the full bin without causing obstruction in your home.

The quality of your robot’s sensors can also affect its lifespan. These are the sensors that detect walls, furniture and other items in your home and assist the robot to navigate around them. Find robots with top-quality sensors. They are expected to be able detect changes in the floor surface quickly and precisely, and avoid getting stuck in tight spaces, such as the nook in between the bathtub and the toilet or under the legs of your desk chair.

It may be worth investing in a robot that can recharge itself and continue cleaning where it left off if the battery runs out. This is especially beneficial for larger homes and makes it much easier to keep a consistent clean throughout the house.

Noise Levels

The level of noise produced by robot vacuums is different for each model and is affected by other factors, too. Manufacturers might mention an option for low-noise operation or a quiet operating speed. However, you’ll have to know the rating of the device to understand what this number really means. In general, sounds that exceed 85 decibels is considered to be extremely loud and can damage hearing over time.

To find the most quiet robot vacuum, search for a model that uses advanced noise reduction technology or a low-noise mode of operation. These features can lower noise levels and allow you to chat or sleep during cleaning.

Some models are also built with insulated or sound-absorbing materials to further decrease the operational noise. These features are crucial for those who reside in a noisy location or have children at home.

Other factors that affect the level of noise are the navigation system and obstacle detection capabilities of a robotic vacuum cleaner. Some robots use mapping technology based on lasers or cameras to avoid hitting furniture and walls when cleaning. These technologies can help reduce the amount of noise that robot cleaners make during its cleaning cycle. They do this by eliminating unnecessary bumps and collisions.

Despite the fact that today’s robot vacuums are more quiet than ever, they still produce lots of noise they are in operation. The noise they generate can be a distraction, particularly for those who have small children or work from home. Furthermore, constant exposure to high-level noise can create stress and increase blood pressure levels.

You can try a few things before contacting the customer support of your robot vacuum if you notice it’s making a lot of noise. First, check the machine for obvious damage. A damaged or cracked housing or component can increase the sound level, causing it to sound like freight trains. Clean and replace filters regularly because they can get clogged up with dust and debris and increase the volume.

A sensor that is damaged or dirty can also be a cause of abnormal noise. Sensors that are damaged or dirty can send robot vacuums in a tense, shaky traverse of your floors, which will lead to hitting objects and causing the sound of a racket. If this happens, you can clean or replace the sensors and then reconnect to Wi-Fi, if necessary.
