How to Keep a Robot Vacuum Clean

robot-vacuum-mops-logo-text-black-png-original.jpgRobot vacuums can help keep your floors clean. Depending on the model they can also sweep or mop stairs.

Apps can be used to schedule cleaning sessions and track progress. Some apps allow you to suspend and recharge, and then pick up where they left off.

1. Battery Life

With cars that drive themselves drones that fly through the skies and robot vacuums that nimbly maneuver around furniture, it's safe say that the future of cleaning is now here. Like all technologies it is necessary to maintain it to keep it running smoothly.

The battery's charge-discharge cycles are the most important factor for the life of your robotic device. Make sure the dustbin is full and empty. Make sure you check for furs that are tangled and prevent the brushes from getting jammed.

Another aspect to consider is the environmental conditions where your robot is kept, as extreme cold and heat can impact battery performance. You can help preserve the battery's life by ensuring it is fully charged prior to storage, storing in a cool place, and removing it from power sources when not in use. Furthermore, many smart devices are equipped with periodic firmware updates that improve performance, including battery optimization, so make sure to check your app for any updates that are available.

A robot vacuum is an excellent option for those who have a lot of hard flooring. It is able to quickly and efficiently take away dirt and other debris, leaving your floors sparkling clean. If you want more than just a quick clean-up, look for a model that offers superior navigation and obstacles avoidance.

Our top-rated robot, the Ecovacs Deebot T20, blends advanced navigation with a powerful suction and a wide range of mopping features to offer an extensive, thorough clean of your floors. It makes use of LiDAR sensors and cameras to create precise maps of your home. This helps it stay on track and avoid getting stuck on furniture legs or power cords. It also can detect objects like clutter and shoes, and then automatically clean them. It's also self-emptying, which means you don't need to return the vacuum to its base station to empty its bin after every cleaning session.

2. Dust Bin

Robots are good for quick midweek cleaning, but lack the suction to replace a plug in vacuum cleaner for deep cleans. Even the best robotic vacuums can be prone to becoming entangled in cords and toys. They also tend to miss dirt piles near baseboards and struggle to remove dust from under furniture. Their dust bins onboard fill up quickly that they need to return to their charging stations to empty themselves. This can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes for some models.

As such, it's important to look for a robot vacuum that has a big dustbin and can empty into its dock and not return to complete the job. You'll also want to consider whether you'd like a bagged or bagless model and, if you opt for a bagless version, how much dust will be able to hold before needing to be empty.

In our tests, we placed 100 grams of sand on a medium-pile carpet surface and used a robot vacuum cleaner to remove the sand. The amount of sand that is weighed in the bin of dust onboard allows us to measure the amount of dirt that has been collected. A high amount means that the bin could fill up faster and cause your robot to stop cleaning.

It's important to know that many robot vacuums come with an enormous dust bin that is easily emptyable. You can also schedule them to empty their bases at least two times per day. It is also a good idea to keep a bottle of compressed air on hand to blow hairs out that are tangled in the rotating brush and clean any filters as suggested by the manufacturer.

3. Wi-Fi Connectivity

The top robot vacuums come with many options to connect to your home's WiFi network. This lets the robot download and install updates to its software, as well as gives you the option to monitor your robot via an app or via voice-activated commands. Although not required it is a useful feature and personalization features that improve your overall robot vacuuming experience.

To ensure they are functioning at their peak the majority of models require a certain amount of maintenance. For instance emptying the dustbin or cleaning the brushroll. A regular schedule of cleaning, detaching, and checking consumable parts can also prolong their life. Vacuum expert Emily Rairdin at University Vacuum & Sewing says three to five years is the typical lifespan of a robot vacuum, though this can vary significantly depending on the frequency you use it and whether you maintain it properly.

To function, a robot vacuum needs to be able to map your floors and navigate around obstacles. Advanced navigation systems have cliff sensors that alert the robot to steep drops. They also have optical and laser sensors that help "see" the arrangement of a room. Certain robots have a mopping function that can be used to keep floors between deep cleanings by using vacuums.

The best 2-in-1 robots can mop and vacuum making it possible to skip the step of having to switch between the manual and robot vacuum. A prime example is the iRobot Roomba 690, which is a powerful and highly efficient robot vacuum that is able to clean surfaces with its water tank and wash its mop pad in a way that is automatic. Its high-quality mapping and obstacle-avoidance capabilities made it the best robot vacuum award, and an AVTech Editors choice award.

4. Cleaning Patterns

The best robot vacuums that we test have excellent pickup scores on hard floors as well as low pile carpets. They remove dirt, dust and pet hair. They also clean up particles and crumbs from the edges of rooms and along baseboards. However, they cannot remove deep-down dirt or tangles that are a part of soft shag carpets as well as an upright or canister vacuum. They aren't able to pick up spilled liquids or food items, or use large screws made of metal. They might also overlook certain areas (including under furniture).

Many models have smart features that make them more user-friendly. The majority of models come with an app that allows you to schedule cleaning sessions, and control the robot remotely. They can be integrated into your smart home system, to allow voice commands through Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Certain models come with multiple modes that let you select between mopping, sweeping, and vacuuming. They can return to their docks to recharge and continue cleaning the area they left.

The technology for avoiding obstacles has improved over years, but it is still important to take away cords, toys, and pet clutter before operating the robot. You'll also want to cover any mirrors from floor to ceiling with cardboard before tracing the space for the first time, because the laser employed by certain models could bounce off reflective surfaces, causing the robot to crash into the floor or wall.

Some premium models have advanced mapping capabilities, some using lidar to generate an 3D map of your space. This helps the robot to identify obstacles and create an efficient route around them. Certain robots let you create no-go zones to ensure that the robot is able to avoid certain areas, such as your pet's food bowls or a costly rug.

5. App Control

You can create an agenda for cleaning and control the robots using an app. This lets you tidy your home even when you're at work or on vacation. Some robots can also self-empty their debris into a huge bin at the base. This reduces dust rerelease and is a great feature for those suffering from allergies.

Some robots can spot objects on the ground and utilize a camera as a guide to avoid obstacles such as power cords, furniture leg or pet toys. This is an impressive feature, and it's even offered in less expensive models. It is essential to regularly empty the dustbin of your robot and also check for tangled fur as it gets accumulated.

Certain models can also create 3D representations. This is helpful in the event that you have more than one floor. You can choose certain rooms, and create digital "keep-out" zones to ensure that your robot only cleans the areas you want.

Robots are good for midweek cleaning, but they aren't able to replace a plug-in vacuum cleaner especially when it comes to rugs. They are more adept at picking up dirt from carpet than bare flooring, but can still be unable to find piles near baseboards or thresholds as well as strangling cords and socks. To get the most out of your robot, look for models that have spots and zone cleaning options to target specific areas and reduce the need for cleaning. You'll also find a model that recharges and then resumes the same place it left off, which is a huge advantage in a big house.
