Any budget robot vacuums that are genuinely worth buying

[NightCrawler33]

Every time I see robot vacuums online they either look incredibly useful or like tiny expensive pets that spend most of the day trapped under chairs

I do not expect perfection but if something can quietly reduce dust and dog hair without smashing into walls all afternoon I am interested

The Eufy ones seem to appear in loads of best budget lists

Robot vacuums are surprisingly good for maintenance cleaning between proper cleans

Mine absolutely has favourite spots where it gets stuck repeatedly

Eufy seems to dominate the affordable end of the market

Watching a robot vacuum try to escape chair legs feels strangely emotional

They work best if your floor is already reasonably tidy
