If there is a brand that takes a large part of the smart vacuum cleaner market, that is Roomba. Their equipment has a great quality / price ratio but, as you can imagine, they are not the only option we have. There are many other possibilities that you should consider and, for this reason, today we are talking about the main alternatives to Roomba’s smart vacuum cleaners .
Alternatives to Roomba’s smart vacuum cleaners
In the market for this type of equipment there are different models that offer a wide range of possibilities that equal, or exceed in some cases, the options offered by Roomba.
As you can imagine, depending on the price you are willing to invest in a smart vacuum cleaner, it will have a greater number of features and functionalities. For this reason, we show you the best alternatives for less than: 200 euros, 300 euros and , if you want the most complete options, 500 euros . We show you each of the models from the cheapest to the highest price.
IKOHS NETBOT S15
If you are looking for one of the cheapest alternatives possible, you should keep in mind the IKOHS Netbot S15 . A 4-in-1 robot vacuum cleaner that sweeps, vacuums, mops and scrubs. It has its own remote control app and, despite its reduced price, it has the possibility of voice control through Amazon and Google assistants.
Of course, although the manufacturer indicates that its 1200 Pa of suction power allow you to perfectly clean any corner, it may not be enough in some situations.

- Customization skins
- Voice control through virtual assistants
What we don’t like

Another of the ultra well-known brands within this sector is Cecotec. It has a good alternative among “cheap” vacuum robots with the Conga 1099 model. It is also a 4-in-1 robot capable of performing all the tasks necessary to clean the floor of your home.
