I track 11 robot vacuums sold on their makers’ own US stores. 9 are in stock, from $799.99. Every one also mops, and 9 empty their own bin into the dock.
I looked at 12 robot vacuums; 11 are listed. See the one I left out, and why.
None of the robot vacuums under $1,000 has a camera that its maker mentions. The lowest-priced one that does is the Narwal Freo 20 at $1,099.99.
Try removing a filter.
Suction is each maker’s own figure, and makers don’t measure it the same way. I list it as claimed. Every model here also mops.
Every model in stock on its maker’s own store, at the checkout price before tax. Two sold-out models aren’t shown. Ordered by price, not ranked.
Checked Oct 20 and 21, 2026Three things the makers’ own pages show, which are easy to miss.
The makers claim from 15,000 Pa to 42,000 Pa. Each one measures it its own way, so a higher number doesn’t always mean better cleaning.
I list suction as the maker states it and never rank by it.

Five makers say their robot uses a camera to avoid obstacles. Roborock says the Saros 20’s camera also supports video calls, so you can see your home remotely.
The other six don’t say either way.

The Ecovacs Deebot X12 OmniCyclone was $1,499.99 on Oct 20 and $899.99 at checkout on Oct 21, with a countdown on the sale.
I show the price at each maker’s checkout, with the date, and log every change.

Vacuuming and mopping are two of the five chores robots already do. See which chores are next, and the humanoids aiming at the rest.
