The Best Robot Vacuum For Pet Hair on Hardwood FloorsA high-quality robot vacuum can make a big difference in keeping allergens such as dust and pet hair under control. Not all models are the same.If you're looking to purchase a vacuum with pet-specific features or just a great robot to enhance your existing vacuum, there's plenty of choices.1. Eufy RoboVac G30 EdgeThe G30 Edge is the newest model in Eufy's line of budget robot vacuum cleaners. It's a glossy black model with rose-gold and blue accents that look like a smartphone. It's easier to use than previous models and includes features such as BoostIQ which automatically increases suction for better cleaning of all surfaces. It also uses smart navigation to avoid repeating the same spots repeatedly, which is a common problem with bounce-navigation systems that are simpler.It does an excellent job of removing pet hair and crumbs from hard floors, but it falls in comparison to the best models when it comes to cleaning up dust on carpet. In robot vacuum cleaner for pet hair Robot Vacuum Mops , the G30 Edge missed 74% of the dust on hard floors, and 26 percent on carpet, which is disappointing.A feature that makes the G30 Edge stand out is its ability to map your home's layout using an electronic map that is available in the app. This lets it remember the rooms it has cleaned and avoid going back to these rooms. This is a major issue for robots that are more basic and need the old-fashioned magnetic tap to delineate no-go zones.The G30 Edge also has other advantages. It comes with a "Find My Robot" mode that emits loud music until it is found and a directional keypad that allows you manually move the robot. It has an automatic return feature that will send the robot back to its charging station if the battery is running low. This is a safety feature.2. Neato Botvac D-ShapeThe Neato Botvac D-Shape robot is a robust machine that comes with a variety of intelligent features. It can clean floors efficiently and climb up high-pile carpets with ease. The app offers advanced features like boundary lines, remote access to the robot while it is operating and a variety of other options.This model is the newest in a long-running series of robots by Neato. It is unique because it has a "D shape when seen from above. This design comes with a variety of advantages such as improved corner cleaning and a larger dust container than other models. The D-shape design also allows the robot to get under furniture better than robots with a circular design.The D-Shape will briefly stop before beginning a cleaning cycle to make use of spinning infrared light to scan and assess the area. Then, it will work in a grid and gradually moving from one area to the next until the entire floor has been covered. This method is more thorough and efficient than some competitors who employ a random method.The D-Shape's design permits it to have a huge 700ml dust container as opposed to 400-600ml for robots of similar price. This increased capacity will save you time and effort by reducing the frequency of emptying the dust bin. The D-Shape features a flat surface on the front, which helps it to navigate around obstacles such as chairs and tables. In our tests, the D-Shape did get stuck under a four-legged stool as well as an electrical cord that was exposed however it was able to free itself every time.3. Roomba i3+ EVOThe Roomba EVO i3+ is an excellent option for pet owners. It is a great choice for hard floors and does a fantastic job of clearing up debris like rice, cereal, and hair of pets. It isn't as good on carpets however, it is still superior than other robots in this price range. The Roomba i3+ EVO is also very efficient at moving between floor types and doesn't get hung up on transitions the way older generations can. The dual multi-surface brushes are flexible and adjust to different flooring types. They also have a tendency to not tangle pet hair.The i3+ EVO has weaker obstacle avoidance than some of the other robots we evaluated. It repeatedly ran into objects like pet toys, handbags, and shoes before retracing its path. It also had difficulty with coarse kosher sea salt which it did a whirlwind of instead of picking up.The i3+ EVO comes with a host of features that make it worth the extra money over other Roomba models. These include a self-emptying bin and advanced control with an app. It is possible to schedule cleaning and set up custom routines. You can also set up zones that prohibit the robot from entering certain areas. Its intelligent scheduling can even suggest additional cleaning during allergy season and according to the routine you follow. Its navigational system is somewhat not reliable however, and often vacuums in irregular lines like diagonals or zigzags rather than parallel to walls.4. Shark AI Self-Empty, XLThis intelligent robot is able to visualize your home's interior, better than you. It also comes with dual brushes that adjust to different kinds of flooring and avoids tangling, which makes it the ideal choice for homes with pets. You can control the robot through the app, or activate it hands-free with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. The dock, dubbed Omni, automates tasks such as refilling and cleaning the robot's water tanks, emptying debris bins, and charging and drying the mop pads.It's a fantastic value. The Shark AI Self-Empty XL offers many advanced features, including mapping and a self-emptying bin which can hold a large amount of debris. We tested it in a home with a mix of unfinished floors and low-pile carpeting and found it to move and clean extremely well, including getting into corners. The vacuum does an excellent job of removing pet fur on carpeting. However, it doesn't have as much power as our top picks.However, the Roborock S4 Max is better built, takes much less time to recharge than the Shark and offers an array of scheduling and automation features, including support for no-go zones. We'd still recommend the Shark If you're looking for something cheaper or should you prefer to use your mobile phone for control and monitoring instead of a remote that is specifically designed for it.5. Bissell SpinWave Dry and wetThis robot does both vacuuming and mopping. The two tank system is powerful and can vacuum or mops with the touch of one button. It was able to easily switch between surfaces in our tests and was successful in picking up pet hair from carpets and hardwood floors. It also comes with an edge-sweeping tool for removing hair from walls and baseboards.This robot is a great option if you're seeking a model that is inexpensive and has a few extra features. It was able to negotiate obstacles with ease during our testing and is controlled via an app or voice. It comes with a large trash bin for the collection of messes before they're full. The only drawback is that it can take up to 166 minutes to complete its task however that's still much better than most other robots we've tested.The front-facing camera of this robot allows you to check the cleanliness of your home by using a map app. This is particularly useful in the event that you need to locate a particular object or if your kids have spilled glitter from your holiday decor all over your floor. You can save yourself lots of frustration by locating the missing item quickly. Plus, the fade-free lithium battery can last for up to 130 minutes on one charge.6. Roomba 694The Roomba 694 looks classy and offers a thorough cleaning. It's extremely adept in maneuvering and can go under furniture that is low without getting stuck. It's also a good choice for rugs and low-pile carpet. It can become stuck on rug tassels, and it's difficult to maneuver small spaces, such as corners. It also has trouble getting pet hair off all surfaces.Despite the 694's lack of features however, it still performs well than most of the competition. It scored an excellent score on our cereal-carpet test. It also was able to pass our test on cat litter with only a few stray pieces of litter left behind. It's less effective on hardwood flooring. Its side brush is often scattered with large pieces of cereal that cling to the floor instead of sweeping them away. It also had a hard time collecting table salt on a unfinished floor, as lots of grains fell across the floor.It allows voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant through an external device (sold separately). It is able to learn about your cleaning habits and then creates custom schedules. Cliff Detect and an edge-sweeping brush ensure it gets into difficult-to-access corners. Dirt Detect sensors alert it to areas that are heavily soiled. Its battery lasts about 60 minutes and it has a self-emptying trash bin. The pricier iRobot j7 has a more advanced suite of features and is more stable on all surfaces. It also feels better constructed and has a bigger dustbin it charges faster and is able to navigate obstacles such as electrical cords better.
