Robot Vacuums Reviews
Robot vacuums have improved dramatically but manufacturer cleaning scores remain largely meaningless — measured on bare floors with controlled debris that bears no resemblance to pet hair on a medium-pile UK carpet. Our reviews use standardised debris loads across hard floors and carpet at two pile depths, measuring debris recovery, edge cleaning, and battery consumption.
Ratings reflect editorial confidence and evidence quality. Read our review methodology for full details.

How We Review
We scatter measured quantities of standardised debris (rice, sand, pet hair) on hard floor and carpet test areas, run three cleaning cycles, and weigh recovered debris. Navigation is assessed in a furnished test space. Battery runtime is measured in standard mode on hard floor.
Full review methodology →Frequently Asked Questions
Can robot vacuums handle UK carpet?
Many can, but suction performance on medium and high-pile carpet varies significantly. We test on a standardised carpet sample and report debris recovery so you can compare accurately.
Are robot vacuums worth the money?
For regular maintenance cleaning they offer genuine convenience. They do not replace a deep clean with a full-size vacuum. Our reviews assess whether each model's real-world performance justifies its price.
