Best Robot Vacuums in 2019

You'd be hard-pressed to find a list of the best robot vacuums without the good ol' Roomba 690. The Roomba 690 is Wi-Fi connected, giving you the option to control your robovac from its companion smartphone app. It also works with Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant, meaning you can issue a voice command to start it cleaning.

The Roomba 980 is a powerhouse of a robotic vacuum. This $800 machine can clean for up to 120 minutes at a time but will dock, recharge, and start cleaning again until the job is done. It uses Roomba's Smart Mapping technology to literally map out your house, creating the most efficient cleaning route and remembering where it's been and what it has left to clean.

The Deebot N79S runs for about 1.7 hours before it needs to recharge and includes a three-stage cleaning system (brush rollers, an edge brush, and vacuum suction). If you're looking for a budget-friendly robotic vacuum with voice control, the Ecovacs Deebot N79S is worth a look

The eufy BoostIQ RoboVac 15c is a smart robotic vacuum that works great for cleaning up the fur and hair your pets leave behind. This robovac doesn't have Wi-Fi connectivity, and you won't be able to control your robot while you're out of your home, but you can set it cleaning with the included remote control.

The Neato D7's D-shaped design gives it more room for an extra-large dust box, a wider cleaning brush, and a closer clean for corners and baseboards. Once the D7 has mapped out your home, you can use the companion app to create virtual boundaries that'll keep the vacuum from running over your tassel-laden carpet or bumping into your pet's water bowl.

The DEEBOT OZMO 930 from Ecovacs can pull double duty. It works as a vacuum, gobbling up dirt, dust, pet hair, and more from your carpets, or as a mop, with included pads for mopping the hard surfaces in your home. It's got 110 minutes of run time, and will automatically return to its charger when it runs low on battery.
