I present to your attention a rating of the 8 best robot vacuum cleaners for cleaning animal hair in 2020. In terms of functionality, such robots do not differ from all others on the market. Their key features are high suction power and a special structure of the turbo brush. It is combined with bristles and silicone blades on a single shaft, which minimizes winding of the collected wool and the formation of blockages. When selecting models for the rating, I took into account my experience of use and customer reviews. Therefore, both expensive and budget devices, the most popular in our region, were included in the top list. But the first place rightfully went to the most expensive and interesting, in my opinion, model.
Hobot Legee 688
The versatile robot floor polisher Hobot Legee 688 takes the first place in our rating, thanks to the four-stage Fast Brush cleaning technology, which has no analogues among other manufacturers. Suitable for dry and wet cleaning of extremely hard surfaces, it does not vacuum carpets. If you don't have carpets at home, then this is the best option in its price segment.
What is it good for? It's all about the cleaning system. If you turn the robot over, you can see 2 platforms on which napkins are attached. The platforms move with a speed of up to 10 vibrations per second, thereby imitating the movement of hands during cleaning. Let's take a closer look at the cleaning process:
- The first stage, the debris, thanks to the side brush, falls into the suction port. Power of 2100 PA allows you to easily suck in dust, fine debris, hair and pet hair.
- The first cloth will dry the floor.
- After the first wipe, a system of two nozzles wets the floor with liquid
- The last napkin provides full wet cleaning.
Excellent cross-country ability and maneuverability thanks to the D-shape, crawler-type wheels, increased side brush. Interesting 7 modes of operation. The “kitchen” mode deserves special attention for thorough cleaning of the floor from stubborn stains. The vacuum cleaner divides the room into squares of 1.5 mx 1.5 m, moistens them with water and then passes over them again, removing already dissolved stains. Impressive 2100 Pa suction power, 2750 mAh battery (up to 90 minutes of cordless use or up to 150 m2).
Controlled by remote control or smartphone app. In the latter case, the potential of the vacuum cleaner is revealed at 100% - displaying a map of the room, planning cleaning for 7 days, viewing information about the technical condition of the device, a complete report on cleaning. The price is 34,990 rubles.
Benefits:
- Effective cleaning in corners thanks to the D-shaped body.
- Builds a room map.
- Connecting to a smartphone via Wi-Fi.
- A unique cleaning system that simulates hand washing the floor.
- 7 cleaning modes.
- Quiet work.
- Automatic installation on the charger.
Disadvantages:
- The kit does not include a virtual wall.
This robot is fundamentally different from other participants in the rating, if you have exceptionally hard surfaces, I highly recommend paying attention to it. It has no competitors in this segment.But if there are thresholds and you need to clean the carpets, take a look at the following models in the ranking.
iRobot Roomba s9 +
The second place is taken by the flagship vacuum cleaner of the American company with a unique D-shape for iRobot vacuum cleaners. Robot iRobot Roomba s9 + incorporates all the previous developments and received unique technologies that ensure smart home cleaning. It adapts to the home thanks to the Imprint system, cleaning it perfectly, determining the best cleaning method. Imprint technology not only provides mapping with the placement of furniture and obstacles, but also aims to work Roomba s9 + in conjunction with the robot floor polisher iRobot Braava m6. Both gadgets work in conjunction, carrying out first dry and then wet cleaning.
The vacuum cleaner perfectly orientates itself in space thanks to the SLAM technology, it can compose and store up to 10 cards in memory - it is important for multi-storey buildings. The model is compatible with voice assistants from Amazon and Google. Control the robot by giving it commands with your voice. It can also be controlled from a smartphone using the iRobot HOME mobile app. In it, the user can set a room for work, indicate areas that should not be cleaned, and set a schedule for the vacuum cleaner while you are at work. Carpet detection function. The robot detects the type of surface to be cleaned, increasing the suction power when cleaning carpets to effectively collect debris, animal hair and hair.
But the main feature of the iRobot Roomba s9 + is self-cleaning. The docking station is equipped with a dust bag that is 60 times larger than the built-in dust bag. With every charge, and if necessary, the vacuum cleaner sends all the dust there. You just need to clean the bag once every few months.
pros
- Ergonomics.
- Design.
- Autonomy.
- Excellent navigation.
- Cartography (up to 10 cards in memory).
- Suction power.
- Self-cleaning system.
- Convenient smartphone control.
- Voice control.
Minuses
- Price.
- No wet cleaning.
- Noisy dust removal from the dust container.
- Cannot be integrated into a smart home.
The price is 110,000 rubles. The vacuum cleaner, in terms of power, cleaning quality and functionality, surpasses all competitors on the market, but the price is appropriate. There are models that work, no worse, but have a significantly lower price tag, for example, LG R9MASTER. And there are also budget models that are popular with users and are capable of dry and wet cleaning at a price several times lower. Is it worth paying that kind of money for the iRobot Roomba s9 +, decide for yourself, having read the rating to the end.
LG R9MASTER
The third place in the ranking is taken by a robot with a cyclonic dust filtration system. He also finished third in ranking of the best robot vacuum cleaners with a camera... The Smart Inverter Motor rotates at high speed, forming a powerful air flow in the cyclone chambers. When cleaning on carpets, along walls and in dusty places, the vacuum cleaner automatically switches to turbo mode, increasing the suction power. A built-in electric motor inside the Power Drive Nozzle spins the brush to efficiently pick up debris, dust and hair from a variety of surfaces. The collected debris goes through 5 stages of filtration - a mesh filter, 2 cyclones, a pre-filter and a HEPA filter. They are all removable and easy to clean. The dust container has a volume of 0.6 liters and is easy to clean. Management is carried out from a smartphone. By functionality LG R9MASTER practically not inferior to the leader of the rating. There is the construction of a map of the premises, the definition of carpets and especially polluted places, a work plan, virtual limitation, zoning of the premises. The only thing that LG is clearly losing out is cleaning in hard-to-reach places. Its height is more than 14 cm does not allow it to drive under furniture. However, the dimensions of iRobot Roomba s9 +, like the vast majority of robotic vacuum cleaners on the market, do not guarantee successful cleaning under furniture. Often technicians find themselves "hostages" of low sofas and nightstands and cannot get out without the help of the owner.
pros
- Excellent navigation.
- Suction power.
- Multi-cyclone filtration system.
- Convenient smartphone control.
- Convenient cleaning of the dust container.
Minuses
- Price.
- Dimensions.
- No wet cleaning.
- May get stuck in chair legs.
- Has difficulty working in the dark.
- Cleaning quality in corners.
- No changes can be made to the cleaning schedule (based on user feedback).
- No voice control.
- Cannot be integrated into the Smart Home.
The price is 80,000 rubles. In terms of suction power, it is comparable to a full-fledged cyclone vacuum cleaner and is not inferior to the leader of the rating. In terms of functionality, it also does not lag behind, if you do not take into account the lack of voice control. It is worth overpaying 30,000 only if the self-cleaning function is extremely important to you. If the ability of a vacuum cleaner to clean under furniture is important to you, I advise you to pay attention to more budget models. There is no guarantee that the iRobot Roomba s9 will perform better on this task.
Xiaomi Roborock S5 MAX
In fourth place in the TOP is a vacuum cleaner from Xiaomi. Took first place in the nomination best robot vacuum cleaner 2020... Unlike the previous participants in the rating, this vacuum cleaner combines the capabilities of dry and wet cleaning, and it can do it simultaneously. Made in a minimalist style from Xiaomi, available in black and white. Suction power 2,000 Pa. The volume of the water container is 0.28 l, the dust collector is 0.46 l, the average for such devices. But from the standpoint of autonomy, it surpasses all participants in the rating, it can work without recharging for up to 3 hours. And it is also equipped with a lidar for the most accurate building of a room map and acceleration of the cleaning process. Supports saving up to 3 room maps, virtual limit on the map, work scheduling. I would like to note the convenience of using the virtual limitation for wet cleaning - the vacuum cleaner does not run on carpets. The restrictions are automatically lifted when the napkin is removed. The device is controlled from a smartphone and using voice commands.
pros
- Price.
- Design.
- Excellent lidar based navigation.
- Autonomy.
- Map building and zoning.
- Save up to 3 cleaning plans.
- Dry and wet cleaning.
- Convenient management.
- Suction power.
- Cleaning quality.
Minuses
- One side brush.
- The volume of the water container.
The price is about 38,000 rubles. As always, Xiaomi offers an optimal product in terms of price-quality ratio. Okami U100 will be a worthy competitor in this price segment. Even more powerful with additional disinfection capability, be sure to pay attention to it.

Okami u100 laser
In fifth place Okami, at a price more expensive than Xiaomi S5 max by about 2-3 thousand rubles, but has several advantages:
- The suction power is higher (2500 Pa versus 2000).
- Proprietary wet cleaning technology - movement along a Y-shaped trajectory.
- The volume of the dust collector is above 600 ml versus 460 ml.
- Warranty service on the territory of the Russian Federation.
You can also install a UV lamp for surface disinfection, which is sold separately, but this will increase the cost of the vacuum cleaner by about 3000 rubles. There is a laser rangefinder for navigation and a TOF sensor for cleaning along the walls. You can control from a smartphone, set up virtual walls, select cleaning places, and set restricted areas. A reliable flagship model from a well-known manufacturer is in the top of the best:

- best rating with wet cleaning function - 2nd place.
- rating with building a room map - 3rd place.
- rating of the best robotic vacuum cleaners with lidar - 2nd place.
The side brushes are anti-wrap and the V-shaped Pet brush collects hair well and is easy to clean.Objective flaws only with software, which the manufacturer is constantly improving and improving.

Ecovacs DeeBot OZMO 900
The popular Chinese manufacturer Ecovacs is in sixth place. In the model, the problem of wool harvesting is quite simply solved. The vacuum cleaner works without a brush, the debris is sucked directly into the air intake. In this case, the brush is supplied and can be used for cleaning carpets. The functionality of the vacuum cleaner is comparable to that of more expensive competitors - dry and wet cleaning, advanced cartography, room zoning, definition of priority and restricted areas, work planning, automatic power increase on carpets and in particularly dirty areas. I got into the TOP-5 of the best in the nominations:
- rating of the best robots up to 25,000 rubles - 2nd place.
- rating of the best robotic vacuum cleaners with lidar - 5th place.
- ranking of the best Chinese robots 2020 - 4th place.

A good budget robot vacuum cleaner that adapts to cleaning large debris and wool by removing the main brush. Buying it, you save at least 15,000 rubles compared to competitors. But I must say that even in the “native” price segment for the device, there are models that deserve attention, for example, Navi N600 wins in terms of suction power and autonomy.
Genio Navi N600
The 7th place is taken by a robot vacuum cleaner with vSlam navigation, a brushless motor and a high suction power of 2500 Pa. Together with the combined turbo brush, this guarantees high-quality cleaning of hair and animal hair.

He can carry out dry, wet cleaning, work as a floor polisher in several scenarios - automatic mode according to the built map, spot cleaning, cleaning along the walls. In all cases, it is possible to adjust the suction power and the degree of moistening of the napkin. This is done using the remote control or the application on the smartphone. In the application, you can limit the cleaning area, plan the operating schedule of the device, view the history of its actions. You can limit the cleaning area with the supplied magnetic tape. The vacuum cleaner is also interesting for its ability to speak Russian. He will inform you about the end of the command execution, or problems encountered during work.
