10 Best Robot Vacuum For Pet Hair And Mop Related Projects That Can Stretch Your Creativity Best Robot Vacuum For Pet Hair and Debris


A robot vacuum that can remove pet hair and other debris from all types of floors is a necessity when you have pets. Look for features such as obstacles avoidance, app control and scheduled cleanings.

Dogs and cats shed fur that splatters across hard floors or is embedded into carpeting. This is difficult for a robot to pick up.

1. Neato D9

The Neato D9 robot cleaner is one of most advanced on the market. It has an onboard sensor that maps the space and then moves through each room in a logical manner, sweeping up and down until it has covered every inch of the floor. It is easy to clean hard to reach areas like under furniture or above stairs. It's also great for cleaning dust and pet hair.

The D9 is an extremely powerful vacuum cleaner that can clean up 1,600 square feet with one charge. This makes it ideal for homes with medium-sized spaces. It comes with a premium brushed-black finish that will look fantastic in any house. The D9 isn't quite as powerful than some of the other robotic vacuums we tested in our tests, but it is still able to pick up a lot of dirt and debris. The helix multi-surface brush on it is 70% larger than those found on many round robotic vacuums, which makes it much more effective at cleaning up crumbs and other debris.

SmartLiDAR navigation is another feature that sets D9 apart from other robot cleaners. It uses the same technology as self-driving vehicles to map and navigate through your home. The D9 is able to clean more efficiently than robots using cameras, as it can see more of your house and avoid obstacles when the light is dim.

If you do not want the D9 to remove certain areas of your home off its cleaning list, you can draw virtual boundaries on a map in the app. The D9 will either stay clear of these areas or clean more often. It can also detect pet messes on floors and clean them.

The D9 can also clean your grout, which is a great feature when you have a tile or vinyl floor in your home. It isn't quite as effective as other robot vacuums when it comes to getting rid of pet hair from carpeted floors but it still does a great job.

The D9 was able to remain in the same spot for more than three-hours, which was more than any other robot vacuum I've tried. However, it was required to return to the charging base when its battery had reached 15%.

2. Eufy RoboVac 11S

The Eufy RoboVac11S robot vacuum is a great choice if you are on a tight budget and are looking to get your floor clean. It's also among the most affordable robot vacuums on the market in the market today, and is even less expensive than older Eufy models or other machines from lesser known brands. The 11S is small and attractive, as well as easy to use and comes with a large dust compartment.

It shares the same basic shape similar to the eufy 30C we reviewed last year, but it's smaller and has higher suction power (2 kPa vs 1.7). Contrary to the more expensive Roomba models and the 11S does not come with a built-in robot mop or advanced navigation capabilities. It uses a smartphone app as well as a remote control to allow you to manually control it.

You can set up the 11S to clean your entire home or specific rooms. The 11S also comes with an option for spot-cleaning that lets you choose an area and then vacuum it for two minutes. Edge cleaning is another helpful feature that lets you concentrate on the edges of your room.

The 11S is easy to maintain because it has an enormous dirt compartment that doesn't require frequent emptying and the battery's lifespan is great. It does have a tendency to fall off its charging dock once it's full, which is why you'll want to secure the wires around the dock using zip ties. The lack of a 'dust box full' indicator means you'll need to check the dust container regularly but it shouldn't take much time.

Comparatively to the eufy 30-C The 11S is better-built, incurs lower costs for recurring repairs and has a larger dirt compartment, and is able to eliminate more debris from bare floors to low-pile carpet. It is also simpler to maintain and performs better, especially when cleaning carpets. Its BoostIQ feature automatically changes between Standard power and Max power settings according to the surface you are cleaning. Anti-collision sensors keep the 11S from crashing into furniture, and it's able to be set to automatically return to its original setting when the battery is low. It took about an hour for it to fully charge and it has a long duration.

3. IRobot Roomba J7+ Roomba

iRobot j7 is the smartest robot mop and vacuum combination available. It utilizes PrecisionVision navigation to identify obstacles and avoid them, while avoiding blind spots where other robotic vacuums might get stuck. It also analyzes your home's layout and uses it to improve its cleaning efficiency over time. It can be controlled by the iRobot App and can also be integrated with Alexa or Google Assistant.

We tested the j7+ Combo through its paces on our obstacle course, and found it to be one of the best robotic cleaners for both floors with a low pile and bare floors. Its maneuverability is exceptional and it cleans in an organized pattern and then returns to its docking station after it is it is done. Its hazards detection feature is effective in avoiding things like cords, though it can get caught on rug tassels and struggle to climb on high-pile carpets.

The iRobot j7+ also comes with a self-emptying dust container that will empty its dirt compartment into the charging dock when it is full and reduces hands-on maintenance needs. The j7+ Combo's cleaning capabilities are also well-rounded, sweeping up pet hair and spills that occur on hard and soft surfaces. The dual brush bars made of rubber are able to handle the most sticky mess and are flexible enough to keep from getting tangled up in hair - whether human or animal while cleaning.

The iRobot J7+ is a quiet machine it registers just 64 decibels on our decibel meter while it cleans. The j7+ cleans quietly with a decibel level of just 64 decibels. This is comparable to the sound of a normal phone conversation, and lower than other robots.

The j7+ isn't necessarily the best choice for carpets and floors with low pile, but it's still an excellent choice for the majority of homes. Its ability to stay clear of pet waste and other obstacles makes it a great choice for people with cats or dogs and its clever navigation capabilities make it easy to set up and use.

4. Deebot X2 Omni

Ecovacs' Deebot X2 Omni is a complete robot vacuum and mop, with an elegant low profile and powerful cleaning power and intelligent navigation. It's the first robotic mop and vacuum that has dual-laser LiDAR technology integrated into the body. This will allow for faster mapping and more accurate cleaning. The X2 features AIVI 3D 2.0 and TrueMapping 3.0 and advanced dynamic obstacle avoidance. This gives you the complete solution for cleaning your home across all floors. The X2 also comes with pet-friendly AI that recognizes and identifies pets in the household and allows it to customize its cleaning to your specific household needs.

The X2's unique square-shaped design and built-in edge detection sensors allows it to reach up to corners and walls. It can also clean flooring that is carpet and hardwood/tile simultaneously, but unlike other robots that automatically wash their pads with hot water after each use, the X2's spinning pads are soaked at the base with 131 degrees F water. This allows it to dry the pads between uses, thus extending their life and performance.

The X2 is controlled by a free mobile application that allows you to schedule and plan cleaning runs. understanding is intuitive and user-friendly, however, it isn't equipped with the advanced features that are found in the other models. For example, while the X2 is able to clean in a grid pattern, our tests showed that it mostly cleaned in more random patterns, and occasionally did not remove a pile of dirt or dust that was visible.

The X2 is very easy to maintain. It returns to its docking station to automatically wash and dry its mop pad, and empty the dust bin. It also can recognize its charging station and return to it to recharge. This lets you keep your home filled with fresh cleaning power over the course of weeks. Its only real disadvantage is the size of its battery, which makes it difficult to locate a suitable location for when it's charging.
