Top of the robot lawn mowers ranking
Each category has its own scoring engine, and a score is never compared across categories.
Autonomous mowers that cut a lawn on their own schedule, from wire-guided classics to RTK and vision-guided machines that need no perimeter wire at all.
Segway's large-lawn flagship for 2,000 m²: four-wheel drive with dual suspension for 84% slopes, a 43 cm twin-disc deck with two 180 W motors, network RTK with a 360° camera and 120 zones.
The 5,000 m² Navimow X4: four-wheel drive with dual suspension for 84% slopes, a 43 cm deck with two 180 W motors, a 15 Ah battery for 1,300 m² a charge and two years of cellular data.
MOVA's all-wheel-drive LiDAR mower for 1,000 m²: a 40 cm cut from two floating discs, 80% slopes, 6 cm obstacles, 70 m LiDAR with two cameras, edges under 3 cm and 800 m² per charge.
Robot vacuums and vacuum-mops, from machines that bounce around a room to LiDAR-mapped flagships whose docks empty the bin, wash the mop and dry it again.
Dreame's roller-mop flagship: 30,000 Pa, a 270 mm roller at 9 to 11 N that slides to the wall and lifts 14 mm, legs for a 4.2 cm sill or 8 cm double step, two AI cameras and a 100 °C wash.
Roller mop and legs without the retracting turret: 30,000 Pa with a carpet boost, a roller at 9 to 11 N that lifts 14 mm under a guard, a 4.2 cm sill or 6 cm double step, 120 mm tall, a 100 °C wash.
MOVA's pad-mop all-rounder: 24,000 Pa, 4.2 cm sills or 6 cm double steps, an 89.5 mm body, pads that swing, lift and detach, and a dock that washes in hot water and dries mop, bin and bag at 60 °C.
Robot pool cleaners, from cabled floor scrubbers to cordless machines that map the pool by sonar, climb the walls and skim the surface.
MOVA's flagship pool robot: skims the surface, cleans floor, walls, waterline, corners, steps and shallows with a 38,000 l/h pump, maps with an underwater laser, runs six hours a charge and parks at the surface.
MOVA's fine-debris pool robot: a 3 µm filter in a 3.5 l basket, camera navigation that recognises drains and steps, four hours a charge, schedules and poolside parking, rated for 180 m².
Beatbot's flagship without the self-cleaning station: it skims, cleans floor, walls and waterline, maps with an AI camera, doses a clarifier, parks above the water and charges on a dock.
Window cleaning robots that hang on a pane by suction and wipe it on a planned route, judged on the glass and on what they do in a power cut.
MOVA's light 8,000 Pa window robot: sprays from a 120 ml tank for 32 m², plans a Z or N route, talks you through the job in 15 languages and holds on for 30 minutes after a power cut.
The slim Winbot for narrow panes from 25 × 25 cm: 8,000 Pa, felt brushes at all four corners, ultrasonic mist from a 50 ml tank for 30 m², WIN-SLAM 4.0 and 30 minutes of grip after a power cut.
Ecovacs' 2026 flagship: 10,000 Pa, a TruEdge corner scrubber, six nozzles on an 80 ml tank for 50 m², 16 cm/s, and a 10 kg station that washes the pads itself and runs 130 minutes off the mains.
