Cleaning and irons

Buying guide

A robot vacuum keeps the house clean day to day, but it cannot fully replace cleaning by hand: it will not reach under the sofa or into tight corners. An ordinary vacuum cleaner is more powerful and works better on carpets. In a robot, battery life, how well it climbs over obstacles and the size of the dust bin matter more than the advertised suction power. If you have a pet, you will need to clean the filter and brush more often.
