The self-emptying base vs manual emptying robot vacuum question comes down to who handles the dirt. A self-emptying base sucks the robot’s small onboard bin into a larger bag or canister in the dock, usually leaving weeks between jobs. A manual robot needs its bin emptied by hand every few runs, or sooner if you … Read more

Here’s the dirty little secret of the robot vacuum world: the robot is rarely the problem. A modern machine gliding across laminate in quiet mode can sit near the level of a quiet library.

Picture a big family house on a Sunday. Three bedrooms of crumbs. A hallway that collects mud like it’s being paid for it. A dog shedding with the commitment of a full-time job.

The dock does the unglamorous bit of mopping, so you only handle … Read more

An auto-empty dust bin robot vacuum promises to end the ritual: it parks on a dock, the dock hoovers up the robot’s bin, and you ignore the whole business for weeks. … Read more

There’s a specific kind of dread that comes with hearing the bin-full alarm on your robot vacuum at 11pm on a Sunday.
