This robotic vacuum has powerful motors and a multi-surface brush roll to reach into cracks and corners to ensure your home is truly clean. It also has bumper sensors to can help avoid collisions, and a lower cliff detector to prevent the robot from falling. It can be programmed to clean a room or set of rooms on a regular basis.

The Shark ION is extremely effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it is unable to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It can also get stuck under furniture. It does a good job of avoiding obstructions and can run for up to 90 minutes.

This robot's easy-to-use user interface is among its most appealing features. There's a round cleaning button on the top of the unit, which you can push to begin a cleaning session or use your phone to launch the Shark ION app and give it a voice-command. Once you've done that the app will inform you of the level of battery and status of the vacuum as well as whether it's completed a full or partial cleaning session.

Many customers also loved the fact that this robotic is compatible with Alexa. You can turn this vacuum off and on with an easy voice command, and you can also use the app to schedule cleaning times. The one thing we didn't like about this model was that it took a little longer to charge when as compared to other models that we've looked at. Additionally the two hand vac attachments do not fit into the base and are easily lost.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

In addition to being a top rated robot vacuum in the market, this Samsung model can also be used as a home surveillance camera.

It's a great choice for those looking for an expensive model that can clean hard floors, but who don't mind the occasional dust that gets on carpets.

One of the most impressive features of this robot is its sophisticated obstacle avoidance. It utilizes sensors and artificial intelligence in combination to scan the surrounding area and detect objects. Then it either navigates around them or labels them as a zone of no-go on the map. This feature isn't found on many other robots and makes the Samsung the most secure option for your home.

This model isn't very adept in spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice grains on carpet with a low pile and then sending the robot in to clean. The machine did a fairly poor job of moving the rice grains around and failed to take any of them. This is a disappointing result given that other models have done better in this test.

It's also worth noting that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap, especially considering its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar quality for less. For instance, you could find a top-rated robotic vacuum with similar features for half the price of the Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid.

The SmartThings application is used to control this robot, as well as other Samsung smart products. Setup is simple thanks to the in-app instructions. The app lets you see the map, create cleaning schedules and adjust suction power and select no-go zones and manage other settings.
