Relax and Let a Robot Vacuum Do the Work
A robotic vacuum allows you to take care of other household chores, run errands or simply relax while dirt gets lifted from your carpet. Using sensors to avoid obstacles, these intelligent devices move across your floor on their own. At Lowe’s, we offer robotic vacuums with an array of features that make floor-cleaning tasks a breeze.
For maximum hands-free convenience, try an iRobot Roomba or Shark robot vacuum with automatic dirt disposal. iRobot revolutionized home cleaning with the iRobot vacuum. The Roomba vacuum cleaner gets in tight spaces, recharges itself and some models work on hard floors and carpet.
Homes with pets or allergy sufferers would benefit from a model with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters and brush rolls to remove pet hair. Some robotic vacuums are better at cleaning up pet hair than others. If it’s important that your vacuum can effectively capture pet hair, select a model that’s made for pet hair while shopping. At Lowe’s, you’ll find over 30 types of vacuums for all budgets and from trusted brands like iRobot, Samsung, Shark and more. We also have a number of wet/dry options that lift debris from hard surfaces and then mop them afterward.
Many of the latest models are smart-compatible and connect to Bluetooth so you can use them with voice-assistant technology as well as schedule and operate your vacuum through a smartphone app. Look for other convenient additions such as edge cleaners, remote controls and auto-charging.
Pros and Cons of Robotic Vacuums
The biggest benefit of a robotic vacuum is that it does the work for you, cutting down on overall cleaning time. Because of their small size, they’re also ideal for capturing dirt and debris in places other vacuums might not be able to reach. Another benefit of robotic vacuums is the ability to automate cleaning cycles, which means you can schedule your vacuum to run daily without having to think about it.
Of course, there are also some drawbacks to robotic vacuums. They’re not as powerful compared to some stick and upright vacuums. Also, they may accidentally pick up items like blind cords, socks, pet toys and other small objects lying around the home.
Choosing the Best Robotic Vacuum
There are many great robotic vacuums on the market, and choosing the best one for you will depend on your home. Some models work best on hardwood flooring, while others have an agitator that makes them ideal for cleaning carpets. There are also models that empty dirt and debris on their own, while others require you to manually empty them. To find the best one for your home, use our filter to shop for robotic vacuums that are good for pet hair or feature automatic dirt disposal, voice controls, Wi-Fi compatibility and more.
