Robot Vacuum Cleaner – complete guide to selection, use, and purchase

A robot vacuum cleaner is ideal for busy homes, families with young children crawling on the floor, and homes with pets. If you have high cleaning standards or a dust allergy sufferer in the family, a robot vacuum cleaner is an investment you won't regret.

Simply put, a robot vacuum cleaner is an effective helper – if you ensure you choose one that suits your specific needs.

It has never been easier to have a clean floor

Robot vacuum cleaners are designed to make vacuuming simple and user-friendly. You simply place the robot in its charging station and set it up via an app on your smartphone. It then effortlessly moves around your home, leaving behind a clean, dust-free floor. If it encounters an obstacle, it automatically seeks a new direction.

Robot vacuum cleaners are designed for the average home and work on all common floor types: wood, tiles, parquet, and linoleum.

Whether it's dust bunnies in the corners, pet hair on the carpet, or crumbs on the kitchen floor – the robot vacuum cleaner is the easy and effective solution. Thanks to modern robotics, it's goodbye to dirty floors and hello to one of the best cleaning solutions on the market.

Advantages of a robot vacuum cleaner

• Save time: Reduce the time spent on vacuuming to a minimum and spend your time on something that makes you happy.
• Compact design: A robot vacuum cleaner takes up significantly less space than a traditional vacuum cleaner – even including the charging station.
• Easy to use: The robot automatically turns when it approaches stairs or bumps into a wall.
• Vacuum without noise: Program the robot to run while you're at work – and come home to clean floors every day.
• Flexible control: Most models are controlled via an app and can be started wherever you are.

What to consider before buying a robot vacuum cleaner?

At Fnugfri, we handpick the products we offer. We know all our models and only sell the best robot vacuum cleaners. But it's important to choose the right one for your home – there's a big difference between models.

The best robot for a 40 sqm apartment is not the same as the one that effectively handles a 180 sqm house. Here are the most important factors:

Price: There is a direct correlation between price and quality. If you are looking for a robot that completely takes over vacuuming in the entire house, it pays to invest in a good model. If you only need a little relief and are willing to vacuum yourself occasionally, a cheaper model may suffice.

Pet hair: If you have furry pets, this places demands on the brush heads. Choose a robot vacuum cleaner without a rubber brush, as pet hair might otherwise get tangled in it. For each product on our site, you can see if the model is suitable for pet hair.

Floor type: Wood, vinyl, tiles, or carpet? Some models perform poorly on carpets. If you primarily have soft floors, you should choose a robot with rotating brushes and high suction power that can penetrate deep into the carpet.

Area: Do you live in a 50 or 150 sqm home? Should the robot handle the entire house, or is it primarily one room? This directly impacts which model you should choose.

When is a robot vacuum cleaner not the right choice?

A robot vacuum cleaner is not a universal solution – it has its limitations:

• Dense furnishing: If you live in a home with very closely placed furniture, it will have difficulty getting around.
• Small floor area: For a very small floor area, it may not always be worth it either.
• Long-pile carpets: These are one of the robot vacuum cleaner's weak points – it does not deliver optimal results here.
• Many corners and angles: The robot may have difficulty reaching into narrow corners, and the manual vacuum cleaner will still be necessary occasionally.

However, the robot vacuum cleaner will always take care of a large part of the vacuuming, and it is an individual assessment whether it is worth it for you.

Frequently asked questions about robot vacuum cleaners (FAQ)

Over the past 18 years, we at Fnugfri have received many questions about robot vacuum cleaners. Here are answers to the most frequently asked ones:

Can a robot vacuum cleaner go over door sills? Yes, all robot vacuum cleaners can go over door sills. The height they can clear varies somewhat – most handle 1.8 cm, and some models can do more. All robot vacuum cleaners we offer have a traction motor on each wheel, making them effective at climbing over door sills.

Can a robot vacuum cleaner run on carpets? Yes, all robot vacuum cleaners can run on carpets, but the efficiency varies. Suction power is important, but the crucial factor is largely which cleaning brush the model uses. For carpets, we recommend models with rotating brushes and high suction power.

Should you choose pads or a washing roller for your robot vacuum cleaner? This primarily depends on your floor type and how thoroughly you wish to wash. Pads are the most common solution and work well for light to moderate dirt on smooth floors such as wood, vinyl, and tiles. They are easy to change and wash, and most robot vacuum cleaners with a washing function come with pads as standard.

A washing roller – found, for example, on the Mova Z60 Ultra Roller – actively rotates and provides a more thorough scrubbing wash that loosens ingrained dirt and stains far more effectively than pads. It is the best choice if you have children, pets, or generally high demands for cleaning quality.

In short: pads for light daily maintenance, washing roller for thorough washing. If you can afford it and have room in your budget, the washing roller is clearly the best solution for most homes.

Can a robot vacuum cleaner replace a regular vacuum cleaner? This depends on your home and your cleaning requirements. A good robot vacuum cleaner can easily take over daily vacuuming in a typical home. If you have many corners, dense furniture, or long-pile carpets, you will probably still benefit from a manual vacuum cleaner for more thorough cleanings.

How often should a robot vacuum cleaner run? Most households get the best results by letting the robot run daily or every other day. If you have pets or children, daily operation may be beneficial. You can easily program the robot to run automatically, for example, while you are at work.

Can a robot vacuum cleaner be used on multiple floors? Yes, but most models cannot climb stairs themselves. You must manually move the robot from floor to floor, or invest in an extra charging station for each floor. Certain advanced models with mapping functions (RoomPlan/Multimap) can remember the layout for multiple floors.

What is the difference between gyroscopic navigation and laser navigation? Gyroscopic navigation uses an internal sensor to estimate the robot's position and move somewhat systematically. Laser navigation (LiDAR) precisely maps the room and cleans more efficiently and structured – especially in large or complex homes. Laser navigation is typically found on mid-range and high-end models.

Can a robot vacuum cleaner also mop the floor? Yes, many modern models can both vacuum and wet-mop smooth floors like wood, vinyl, and tiles. At Fnugfri, you can see under each product if the model has a mopping function.

Is a robot vacuum cleaner noisy? A robot vacuum cleaner typically makes significantly less noise than a traditional vacuum cleaner – approximately 60–70 dB compared to a regular vacuum cleaner's 75–85 dB. This makes it suitable for running while you are at home – or while you sleep. However, the noise level varies from model to model.

Which robot vacuum cleaner is best for pet hair? Choose a model without a rubber brush, as pet hair can easily get tangled in these. Look for robots with special anti-tangle brushes and high suction power. For each product at Fnugfri, we indicate whether the model is suitable for pet hair.

How much does a good robot vacuum cleaner cost? Prices vary from approximately 1,000 DKK for basic models to over 10,000 DKK for high-end models with laser navigation, washing roller, emptying station, and app control. As a rule of thumb: the larger the home and the higher the demands, the more it pays to invest. At Fnugfri, we have robot vacuum cleaners in all price ranges and are happy to help you find the right one for your budget.

How do I find out which robot vacuum cleaner to choose? Consider these factors: home size (sqm), floor type (carpet/smooth), whether you have pets, your budget, and whether you want app control or advanced navigation. If you are in doubt, you are always welcome to contact us – we offer free advice and know our products inside and out.
