It has a separate dirt bin and a second mop/vacuuming combo bin that you can fill with liquid cleaner or water. The robot will automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode depending on the contents of the bin.

2. Shark ION
The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner that comes with plenty of features at a reasonable price. It has a long running time and does an excellent job cleaning carpeted and bare floors. It also comes with a useful app and works well with Alexa. However, it does not have the ability to map and other advanced controls of expensive competitors.
This robot vacuum is outfitted with a powerful motor and a multi-surface brush roller that can reach into cracks and corners. It will ensure that your home is properly cleaned. It also includes bumper sensors to keep out collisions and the lower cliff sensor prevents the robot from falling down stairs. It is also programmed to run a single room or a group of rooms at regular intervals and is capable of resuming cleaning sessions that it stopped halfway through.
The Shark ION is very effective in cleaning floors with no dirt. However, it struggles to get rid of pet hairs and debris from carpeted surfaces. It also gets stuck under furniture. However, it does a decent job of avoiding obstacles and it has a long runtime of up to 90 minutes.
The user interface that this robot has is among its greatest features. You can either use the round button on the top of the unit to initiate a cleaning, or launch the Shark ION App on your phone and give the command. After you’ve completed that, the app will tell you 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 liked the fact that this robot can be controlled by Alexa. You can turn this vacuum on and off using an easy voice command, and you can also use the app to schedule cleaning times. The only issue we have found with this model is that it takes a bit longer to charge than the other models we’ve looked at, and the two included hand vac attachments aren’t able to fit into the base and could get lost pretty easily.
3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+
Besides being a top-rated robot vacuum, this Samsung model also functions as a home surveillance camera. It has a camera that which you can access through your smartphone, and is designed to monitor the surrounding area of your home. You can create a schedule to have it patrol your home even when you are gone. This is especially useful for pets that shed or you want to watch out for anyone sneaking in.
Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a high-end model that comes with a variety of features, including object recognition, home monitoring, a self-emptying dirt bin, and five layers of filtration. It’s a great option for those who want an excellent vacuum that performs well on hard floors, but isn’t afraid of a little dust on carpets.
One of the most impressive characteristics of this robot is its advanced obstacle avoidance. It uses sensors and artificial intelligence in combination to scan the surroundings and identify items. It either navigates around the object or declares it an unfriendly zone on the map. This feature isn’t available on other robots, which makes the Samsung an extremely safe choice for your home.
This model is not very good at spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice grains across carpets with low pile and sending the robot to clean. The robot was unable to pick up or push the rice grains. 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 when compared to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums provide similar performance at a lower price. For instance, you could find a top-rated robotic vacuum that has similar features for a fraction of the price of the Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid.
Like other Samsung smart devices, this robot is controlled via the SmartThings app. The setup process is simple with prompts in the app to guide you through it. The app lets you view the map, create cleaning schedules and suction power settings and select no-go zones and manage other settings. It also displays the current status of the robot as well as when the dustbin should be empty.
