The best choice here for mostly hard floor homes that care about mopping and want no dust bags, since its roller mop earned the top combined mopping score in Vacuum Wars testing. It is taller than the others at 3.9 in and reviewers disagree on its obstacle avoidance. Check the street price, because it often sells far below the $1,499.99 store price.

A strong carpet and pet hair cleaner with a full self washing dock. Vacuum Wars measured 92% sand and 92% pet hair pickup with no hair wrap. It avoided only 6 of 24 test obstacles, so it suits homes where the floor is kept clear.

What reviewers found
Ecovacs Deebot X12 OmniCyclone
- Vacuum Wars (3.78/5): Called it the best Ecovacs robot it has tested: 100% flattened pet hair, 0% hair wrap, 23 of 24 obstacles avoided and a combined mopping score of 27.4 against a 20.3 average; carpet deep cleaning was average at 76% and crevice pickup below average. Source
- TechReviewer (8.3/10): Mopping cleaned tile, vinyl and laminate in two to three passes with strong edges; obstacle detection fell short of flagship level and the AI assistant felt unfinished; 84 minutes for a 75 m² apartment. Source
- Gizmodo: Strong mopping and a quiet dock, but the AI Agent mode got stuck and skipped areas, it hit furniture hard and struggled with cables and small objects; reviewer said it is not worth $1,500. Source
Roborock Qrevo S5V
- Vacuum Wars (3.30 Vacuum Wars stars): Removed 92% of embedded sand and 92% of flattened pet hair with 0% hair wrap. Dried stain score was 120 against a 93 average. It avoided 6 of 24 obstacles and estimated coverage was about 1,243 sq ft per charge. Source
- Android Authority: Editor's Choice. The reviewer expected 7 to 9 weeks between bag changes and about 750 sq ft of mopping per tank fill. It lacks auto detergent and bunched up bath mats. Source
