Robot vacuums are a great supplemental tool for maintaining clean floors between deeper cleanings. While they don’t replace the power of a full-size HEPA vacuum, they excel at daily surface-level dust removal, especially on hard flooring.

Why use one:

• Helps prevent fine dust from resettling into flooring crevices
• Encourages consistent cleaning with hands-free automation
• Works well in bedrooms and common areas with open floor plans

Important considerations:

• Robot vacuums are most effective on hard surfaces (wood, tile, vinyl)
• On carpets, they should only be used as a backup—not your main tool
• Choose models with HEPA or high-efficiency filters and a scheduled cleaning feature

Brands like Roborock, iRobot (Roomba), and Eufy offer models with strong suction and smart navigation. Run your robot daily and empty its dustbin regularly to keep it operating at peak performance.
