![]() If you’re up for fiddling with maps in a smartphone app, it’s a fantastic and flexible system. ![]() There are at least a couple dozen super-smart yet affordable robots that, using invisible lasers, can quickly learn the layout of any home, then clean individual rooms (or even sections of a room) on command, and skip everything else. We now recommend the Roborock Q5, We’ll update this guide soon with our impressions. Note: The Roborock S4 Max has been discontinued and is no longer available. IRobot also sells a few models that are very similar to the Roomba i3 EVO and are worth buying if you find them on sale, including the Roomba i4 EVO (sold only at Costco and basically identical to the i3 EVO) and the Roomba 900 series, which is older but works similarly. ![]() It actually works and makes owning a robot even more convenient. But it should grant you the greater level of control you get with other smart-mapping models, like the Roborock S4 Max (more on that one shortly).Īnother neat option: The Roomba i3+ EVO package is the i3 EVO robot, plus a charging dock that automatically sucks the debris out of the robot and stores it in a disposable bag, which you’ll only have to change once a month. We haven’t yet tested this new feature with the i3 EVO. In March 2022, iRobot released a software update that allows you to create a smart map for your bot to tell it to clean specific rooms and adjust cleaning preferences for them using the app. The downside is that it doesn’t work quite as fast as some competing models. With the companion app and a Wi-Fi connection, you can turn the robot on or off, and optionally set an automatic cleaning schedule. It’s also better at cleaning rugs than most bots, and hair doesn’t get tangled in its brushes as quickly. But unlike most of its competitors, the Roomba i3 EVO is actually a sturdy, repairable appliance-and while longevity is never guaranteed, you can reasonably expect to own and use it regularly for years. Like most great robot vacuums today, the Roomba i3 EVO works well in most homes, large or small, because it drives in orderly, back-and-forth rows, keeping track of where it has or hasn’t been, so that it doesn’t miss any big patches of flooring. ![]()
