Our Methodology

We test each robot vacuum for at least 3 weeks across hardwood, carpet, and tile surfaces. We measure pickup rates with calibrated debris, evaluate navigation accuracy, test mopping quality, and assess noise levels, app quality, and obstacle avoidance. No manufacturer has editorial influence.
