Cleaning robots promise that you will never have to vacuum or mop again. Stiftung Warentest regularly tests what the robots can do on hard floors or carpets, how thoroughly they mop and what they are good at in practice. There are many good models, but the price differences are large: Between 160 and 1400 euros.

Product details
Wi-Fi-connected robot vacuum that identifies and avoids obstacles like pet waste and charging cords to get the whole job done.
Avoids pet accidents on purpose – we guarantee it. Only iRobot brings you P.O.O.P. (Pet Owner Official Promise). You can rely on your j7/j7+ to avoid pet waste, or we’ll replace it for free. Offer valid for one year from purchase and covers replacement product only. Valid only for solid cat or dog waste. Additional terms and conditions apply – see iRobot’s Pet Owner Official Promise for full details.
Object detection and object avoidance. Obstacles like pet waste, charging cords and shoes don’t get in the way of the j7/j7+ finishing the whole job because it uses PrecisionVision Navigation to recognise objects. When it first spots them, it will send you a photo so that you can tell it to avoid or clean around the obstacle in the future. It doesn’t just learn your home; it reacts to it in real time.
Automatically empties its bin on its own with enclosed bag system. Forget about vacuuming for months at a time with the Clean Base® Automatic Dirt Disposal that allows the Roomba® j7+ robot vacuum to empty itself for up to 60 days. Enclosed bags capture and trap 99% of pollen and mould. Dust stays out of sight and your hands stay clean.
