I review robot vacuums for a living – here's what you need to know before you buy

TP-Link Tapo RV30 Plus robot vacuum cleaner on a colorful carpet.

If you're feeling bewildered by all the options available when you're shopping for one of the best robot vacuums, don't sweat it. I review robot vacuums for a living, and even I find various choices out there a little overwhelming. It's not just the number of brands (some of which have been around for less time than some of my friend’s kids), but also the amount of cutting-edge features that help make cleaning a little more hands-off in various ways, but also increase the price.

Fortunately I have experience using and testing all sorts of models, from the cheapest options to high-end iRobot offerings, which puts me in an excellent position to share my top tips and tricks for finding the best robot vacuum for you. Keep in mind that the “for you” is vitally important, as different people and homes have different needs, not to mention you may be constrained by your budget, something to consider as extra features bump up the price.
