iRobot Roomba 980

No robot vacuum is perfect—and this one had some trouble with dirt pickup. It's expensive, too. But if you have a whole floor to clean and the money to spend, it's worth a look.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Good dirt pickup performance

  • Gentle on furniture

Cons

  • Unwilling to clean tight spaces

  • Expensive

The 980 has a camera on top to help it navigate.
