Looking for Recommendations on a Robot Vaccum Cleaner for The Home I Should Get My Mum for Christmas?

Just looking for a decent robot cleaner for home I can get mum for Christmas.

Preferably suggestions based on experience using rather than reviews or word on the streets. My max budget for one is up to $400-$500.

        They're all good, even the Gen 1 if you can find it cheap

        • I would spend a bit more and get the gen 2 instead… According to reports/reviews, it's much better for carpets and rugs. My gen 1 is really good but rugs are a problem for her (the robot is named Rose, very predictable).

  • The one Jessie Pinkman had looked nice and did the job

    • who?

      • S04E02 breaking bad

    Roborock S60 or Xiaomi

  • I use a Roborock S50 and up until the laser sensor stopped working about a month ago it was great. Still waiting on parts but at least the eBay seller said he'd send it… still waiting though.

    • how long did it last before the sensor stopped?

      • 11 months!

        • Mine went after 9 months.

  • The Xiaomi Mi Robot (gen 1) is a fantastic machine. It's done 300 cleanups and hasn't missed a beat. The only thing that it's missing imo is the no-go zones. Have to use magnetic tape to isolate areas or upgrade to the S60 for that.

  • Avoid the robot and get a good stick vacuum instead - a much better solution!

    • Robots won't replace a conventional cleaner but the conventional cleaner won't operate itself.

      I love my e35 Roborock. Turn it on and go to work.
