How we test robot vacuum cleaners

27 Feb 2024

Carpets

How we test carpets

How well the robot vacuum cleaner sucks up fine dust from wilton carpet. The best can suck up half of the ground in dust in the carpet, the worst a pitiful 4%

Maintenance

How we test maintenance

How easy the vacuum cleaner is to maintain, including cleaning hair from the brush bar, changing filters and emptying the dust container.

Floor coverage

Large debris

Ease of use

Hard floors

Walls and corners

Noise

Energy use

Pet hair

How we test pet hair

As well as fine dust and larger debris we also put each robot through its paces when sucking up matted and combed in pet hair. Some robots can barely manage it at all, while others will leave your carpets fluff free.

Cleaning speed

How we test cleaning speed

Important if you have guests coming round and you want your robot to be finished in a hurry. Some robots take less than half an hour to almost completely cover a room, others can take longer than an hour.

Navigating obstacles

How we test navigating obstacles

Coming home to find your robot entangled in a pile of cables or stuck in a rug can be an all too familiar sight with some robots. Picking a robot with a high score here minimises this type of scenario.
