The ownership of robot vacuums and floor cleaners has slowly been growing since the first robot vacuum cleaners were launched to market around the turn of the century. There are now millions of units being sold worldwide and the trend is set to continue with the development of the technology.

The latest robot vacuums are much improved from the first editions from popular brands such as iRobot and Neato providing greater cleaning power, convenience and durability. Dyson are also set to become a big player in the robot vacuum cleaner market with their release of their Dyson 360 Eye in the US.

Robot Vacuum vs Traditional Vacuum

Should you buy a robot vacuum cleaner?

The question remains as to whether the current technology of robot vacuum cleaner can replace the traditional vacuum in a home. There is no doubt that there are good quality robot vacuums in the market that do an effective job of cleaning your floors. However they cannot reach areas like curtains or upholstery, therefore many people will find that in order to keep your home sparkling clean a traditional vacuum cleaner with hose attachment is still a must-have.

 

Are Robot Vacuums worth the money?

Are Robot Vacuums worth the money?

iRobot is one of the leading manufacturers of robot vacuum cleaners in the world. Their Roomba models vary in price from $300 to as much as $900. This cost will be prohibitive for many people, considering the vacuum cannot fully replace your traditional vacuum cleaner. It’s certainly not beyond imagination that one day robot vacuum cleaners will have the capability of cleaning a home top to bottom with their continual growth in sophistication.

However it is worth bearing in mind the time-saving potential that a Robot Vacuum Cleaner can bring to your life. Time is money, as they say. You can set up your robot to clean your home every day of the week if you like and they will efficiently go about their business saving you the hard work. People today are busier than ever and it is no surprise that these devices are proving so popular. Even saving an hour or two per week makes the cost of these devices stack up for many who struggle to find the time.

Families with working parents often hire a cleaner to do their vacuuming, however a Robot vacuum cleaner offers the potential to save money by removing one of the cleaner’s tasks. Over the course of a year this saving could pay for the cost of the Robot vacuum cleaner many times over for a large home.

What are the main things to look for in a Robot Vacuum Cleaner?

By searching online reviews of Robot Vacuums on sites such as Home Vacuum Zone it's possible to find out the features and functionality that the latest units offer. Some of the things that you might want to consider in a robot vacuum are:

  • Battery running & recharge times – look for lithium ion batteries which is the latest technology;
  • HEPA filtration – to ensure that the majority of dust particles are fully captured and not released back into the air;
  • Replacement parts that are easy to find—at least filters, but preferably brushes, batteries, and wheels. Third-party vacuum filters are more affordable than buying from the manufacturer. However, internal electronics should be bought direct from the manufacturer, so that you don’t risk voiding your warranty or damaging your robot.
  • Virtual walls – to keep your robot out of particular locations in your home.
  • Advanced scheduling features;
  • Intelligent navigation systems – your robot should learn the layout of your home over time so that their efficiency improves.

 

Conclusion

A robot vacuum cleaner is a great addition to your home and provides you with more time to do the things you enjoy most – that is unless your thing is vacuuming! Robot vacuums are compact and will not take up too much additional space in your home and are a great addition to your home cleaning arsenal. They’re not quite advanced enough to replace your trusty upright or cylinder vacuum yet but our guess is it won’t be long until they can.
