Best Lidar Robot Vacuums on a Budget

Some robot vacuums cost up to four figures. However, budget-friendly models that have features like self-emptying bins and mopping built-in capabilities can deliver rock-solid performance for less than half the cost.

Unlike 'bump and run' robovacs that use physical contact to map the space, lidar technology aids these cleaners in avoiding obstructions like furniture more effectively.

Neabot Neabot X8 Pro

The Neabot X8 Pro robot vacuum is a versatile machine with a long-lasting battery that is able to effectively clean in a variety of homes. Its sophisticated filtration system can remove fine particles, including pet hair and dander making it a great choice for families with pets, and perfect for those suffering from allergies. The user-friendly application and smart design allow you to plan and remotely manage the cleaning process, saving time and effort.

The X8 Pro has a powerful dual-turbine 4,000 Pa motor that provides superior suction power for picking up dust, dirt hair, pet hair, and other debris. It also has a smart auto-learning navigation system that makes use of gyroscopes to navigate furniture and obstacles. This makes it easier to use than other robots that rely on mapping or cameras to navigate your home.

The robotic vacuum is light and compact, so it can be tucked away in tight corners and other small spaces where other robots might struggle to move. Its battery lasts about 90 minutes, which is enough to clean the majority of rooms of a standard home, and it will return to its docking station on its own if the battery is running low. The X8 Pro also has an automatic emptying base that removes dust, debris and other debris from the bin after every cleaning session. This removes the need to manually empty the bin which saves both time and effort.

The X8 Pro, like most other robot vacuums, is compatible with Amazon Alexa or Google Home. This makes it simple to use voice commands. It comes with a built-in Wi-Fi connection that allows you to connect to your home network and access the manufacturer support page for any issues.

In our testing, the X8 Pro performed well on all types of floors. It cleaned hard floors as well as short-pile carpets well and was able to navigate around furniture and other obstacles with ease. Its three-brush cleaning method is also better suited to hardwood floors than Roomba's 2-brush model. The X8 Pro has a programmable the hopper that automatically emptys after every sweep, and then every third or second, it returns to the docking station.

Roborock MaxV

The S7 MaxV robot vacuum and mop is a powerful cleaning machine. Its battery lasts over three and a half hours in its energy-efficient Quiet mode providing plenty of time to remove light debris in large rooms. The MaxV features an impressive Max+ setting that can take on larger messes. However, the time to run is cut to less than 90 mins.

MaxV's lidar mapping robot vacuum navigation combined with its dual camera maps rooms and recognizes carpets, furniture, and objects. It then employs Reactive AI 2.0 to avoid these, which performed well in our tests. The double camera on the MaxV gives it a higher view than the majority of the other robots we tested, which means it can more easily observe baseboards and other features on floors that are high.

Shortcuts, one of the many options for customizing, allows you to control the robot by using voice commands. You can use Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple's Siri. You can also create multiple maps for different floors and use the app's scheduler feature to automatically clean your home at a specified time.

Roborock S7 MaxV is a simple operation, with one power button that also doubles as the 'Cleaning command. It also has an option for Spot Clean that lets you choose a specific spot to clean. Its smart home integration system is also robust. You can connect the MaxV to other devices like lights and thermostats using IFTTT.

Roborock's S7 MaxV Ultra, a more expensive model than the S7 however it comes with a larger dock that can house mopping units as well as dustbin. The Ultra model also has an option for remote viewing that lets you monitor the robot from a distance. You'll need to set up an appropriate pattern within the MaxV Ultra application to enable it. This is a bit more complex than setting up Ecovacs competitor robot the X1 Omni. This feature is a great option for those who have larger homes or who don't want to think about emptying their robot with lidar's dustbin. It's important to keep in mind that the Ultra model does not come with an auto-emptying dock, as does the S7 and S7 Plus.

Eufy X8 Pro

The X8 Pro is a 2-for-1 robot vacuum and mop, with strong suction and a world-class navigation. It makes use of iPath Laser Scanning to map the space, avoid obstacles and detect the carpet's thickness. A huge 2.5-liter dust bin seals in debris for a virtually hands-free operation.

The mop and the vacuum have separate cleaning modes that work together or independently. The mop drags the dampened pad along the floor, while the vacuum picks up dirt and pet fur. This method is great for daily cleaning but it's not able to take off tough stains or sticky mess.

The X8 Pro was able to clean my floors quickly and efficiently in our tests. It was able to deal with different types of floors and furniture types, including thick carpets and hardwoods with textured surfaces. In addition to standard features such as a wide range of cleaning brushes, it also comes with a spinning brush for carpets and edges that's great to remove pet hairs. It also has a variety of cleaning settings that let you tailor your clean to specific areas, including an extra mode for cleaning difficult-to-access areas like under the bed or in the back corner of the room.

While it's designed to avoid stairs, the X8 Pro can sometimes be confused by steep slopes and other barriers especially if they're located near the edge of the staircase. Make sure that any object is at minimum 1.5 feet (5cm) away from the edge of a staircase to prevent the X8 Pro from climbing over and up it.

You can manage the X8 Pro using a free mobile app. It gives you instant access to maps and control and more advanced settings like scheduling and auto-empty frequencies. It's easy to set up cleaning cycles and even view the live map in real time. It lets you choose the specific room or area to target for manual detangling cycles and set up zones of no-go areas for areas it shouldn't be.

The X8 Pro's self-emptying station houses a sizable 2.5-liter antibacterial dust bag that can hold up to 60 days worth of debris in a household with three people and one or two pets. It's actually one of the largest bags available for the robot cleaner.

Neato Botvac D4

The D4 Connected is a good value for money. It may not come with the bells and whistles that Neato's flagship models have however, it provides excellent mapping performance at a reasonable cost. At $429, it is a cut above lower-end models such as the Shark Ion R85 and offers the same features as top-rated models such as the Roomba iRobot and the Neato Botvac D7.

The design of the D4 is similar to the D6 with the exception of the absence of a shiny black plastic cladding. The D4's upper surfaces are adorned with matte finishes that is less likely to attract dust or other particles. A raised disc with the word "neato" sits atop the robot's round surface and conceals the laser that powers its navigation.

Like all Neato vacuums the D4 starts its cleaning routine by navigating through your home to determine its location. While it initially appears to be random however, there's a method to this madness when it drives around walls and corners with a combination of laser sensing and bumping.

When the mapping process is completed you'll be able to view a floor plan of your home within the app that will highlight the areas the D4 has explored. It will also highlight any issues that the robot vacuum obstacle avoidance lidar ran into, such as batteries that are dead or the need to dock. You can restrict the D4's access in certain areas by using the application to draw virtual "No-Go Lines" around furniture and objects that it is advised to stay clear of.

The D4 Connected, like all modern robotic vacuums is compatible with voice assistants. It is operated with simple commands. It supports Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Watch integrations as well as Neato's voice-control abilities. You can also design a customized cleaning schedule and manage the robot's features using the app.

The D4 allows you to create a daily cleaning schedule or weekly one, switch between Eco and Turbo modes, and allow gentle navigation. It will even return back to its base at the end to recharge, but you must wait until the batteries are fully charged before it can do this.
