Xiaomi - Robot Vacuum X10

You might look into the Xiaomi X20 Max (which I have). This one has a special brush which automatically cuts of hair... I previously had the X10, and this change to the brush is such a game changer when you have a woman and a dog in the house.

Xiaomi x10 Bought it 6 months back, no complaints and worth it

I’ve been using Mi robotic vacuum cleaners for 4 years. My first one was the Vacuum-Mop P, and I recently exchanged it for the X10. I haven’t faced any issues, and Mi has a good service network. On the other hand, my brother bought the Dreame D10s Plus, and now its suction isn’t working. He has been following up with customer care for more than 3 months without resolution. So, I would recommend not buying Dreame.

Xiaomi x10. Just remove the useless mop attachment like we have done, and it’s a fantastic, reasonably priced vacuum with a very well-performing AI camera and lidar for object avoidance. It avoids everything except cables which it would eat nightly until we got into the habit of lifting our cables and learned how to set restricted areas. Highly recommended as a vacuum, not recommended as a mop.

best?? who knows! we got a xiaomi S10 (or x10? can't remember) about a year ago and it's great! that was less than 400. yes, I could spent 1000 for one which is identical but with a fancy base that auto empties and other nonsense, but who needs that! 99% of the value of in the same actual vacuum unit, not that.

Well,these headline suction figures are-well,shall we say "interesting".Having only 2 robovacs to compare-both xiaomi and physically identical with the same brushes/filters etc.The newer generation one (with 6000 pa) picks up very well on my mainly low pile carpets-no complaints-at all.BUT,the previous generation one with just 4000 pa, keeps pulling far more dirt/dust out of the carpeted areas than the newer model-make of that what you will.......

Got a dog that sheds a lot and leaves saliva marks on the floor. I had cheap xiaomi robot vacuum mop before, still had to clean a few times a week. Switched to dreame x40 ultra + a levoit air purifier, now i dont really vacuum or mop at all, and i dust the furniture less frequently

I have 2 cats too, one long haired and one short. Tried many many vacuums over the 10+ years that I’ve had my cat. Here’re my personal take on the vacuums as someone who works full time and don’t necessarily have time to clean daily. Dyson: Have the version with the laser. Cost $$$$ but it’s lasted me ~5 years now and still going strong. Fur shows up really well with the laser and imo is a must for pet households. However the fur gets caught in the dust drum especially if your cat is long haired. I would suggest saving up for a laser vacuum, but not necessarily a Dyson one. Side note laser don’t really work well on soft or textured floors (carpets and textured mats), so consider your own situation before you invest. Shark: Had this before the Dyson, so its an old model. Did it’s job, less costly but it was a bit heavier. Broke after 3ish years? Was a bit difficult to clean out the tangled fur too. Random handheld for ~$50 off shopee: Had this in the interim between the shark and the Dyson. My floor LOOKED clean but after turning on the Dyson laser it was an absolute nightmare. Fur and dust EVERYWHERE. So thats why I love the laser. Wet dry robot vacuum from Xiao Mi: It was okay for a while but then things started getting tangled in it (I also have clutter). Also the mop function isn’t very strong so you’d still need to hand mop ~1-2 times a week. After a while it somehow forgot my floor layout and would only mop half of the living room before returning to dock. Also cleaning the vacuum itself was a pain. If your cat is the kind to poop on the floor or cough up hairballs often, I would exercise caution since if your cat ever made a mess when you are out, and the vacuum goes over it, you might just come home to 💩 streaks all over…. Old style vaccum with cord and cylinder: Have this as a backup vacuum. The suction is much better than cordless handheld stick vacuums. Cordless is bad at picking up fur in soft floor like carpet or mats. Con is it’s heavy and less wieldy than cordless. Given your budget I would actually go with a lighter corded vacuum since most budget cordless are bad at picking up fur off anything thats not hard floor… Look for stuff built specifically for pet hair and try out the vacuum in stores if you can. Also look up reviews on Youtube that are 6 month to 1 year post purchase for pet households. Some vacuums lose suction fast.
