Robo Vacs

A robot vacuum helps keep your home cleaner between big cleans by automatically picking up dust, sand, and pet hair on hard floors and low- to medium-pile carpets. Many models can be scheduled to run while you are out, so you come home to cleaner floors without doing the vacuuming yourself. Robo vacs can also reach under beds and sofas where traditional vacuums struggle, which makes them especially useful in busy family homes and apartments. For an even easier routine, you can pair your robo vac with other home and garden essentials to lift your whole cleaning setup.

To choose the best robot vacuum for your home, start with your floors and lifestyle. If you have mostly hard floors and also want mopping, look for a robot vacuum and mop combo, such as selected eufy Omni models. For homes with pets or thicker rugs, focus on stronger suction, anti‑tangle brushes, and a larger dustbin so it can handle fur and mess without constant emptying.

Yes. Most robot vacuums are built to move between hard floors and low to medium pile carpets, including common Australian rugs. Many eufy models can automatically boost suction when they move onto carpet, so they lift fine dust, pet hair, and sand without slowing down. For very thick or shaggy rugs, check the recommended carpet height for each model and set no‑go zones if needed. You can also explore our small home appliances collection for other time‑saving cleaning helpers.

Many modern robo vacs include Wi‑Fi and app control, letting you start, stop and schedule cleans, check maps and adjust settings from your phone. Mid‑range and premium models often support voice assistants, so you can use Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa to tell your robot vacuum to clean a room. App setup is usually straightforward, with step‑by‑step instructions. Just make sure you have a compatible smartphone and home Wi‑Fi network.​

Plan to empty the dustbin after each run or every couple of cleans, depending on how much dirt and pet hair your home collects, unless your model has a self‑emptying station. Give the main brush and side brushes a quick check weekly for hair or string, and wipe over sensors and wheels so your robot vacuum can keep navigating smoothly. Filters usually need a tap‑clean every week or two and a replacement every few months.
