It is one of the top money-saving requests I receive before the holiday rush. Robotic vacuum cleaners have been around for a while and the price drops that I was first in the country to spot make this technology more accessible today than ever before.
The big question: can a robotic vacuum cleaner actually do a good job cleaning your home? For the past 8 months, I've tested four different models in my home, three different models on a show I host with Amazon and another in a smaller condo.
The verdict: If you are tight on time and want a solid vacuum job performed while you are doing other things, a robo vac is for you. More importantly, while humans can out-clean robots, the robo vacs slide under couches, cabinets and tables reaching dirt our arms and hands cannot access.
Combined with a little elbow grease from time to time, a human and a robo vac are the best possible cleaning solution. This is also the key to making an allergy-free home a reality.
