Best Robot Vacuums Ranked by AI Models (2026)

Key Takeaway

Robot Vacuums has consolidated brand authority in second run. Roborock 12-of-12 lock-in extends across 2 consecutive runs (strongest cross-run consistency we have documented for this category). Dreame and Eufy continue to hold universal mid-tier presence. iRobot is consistently positioned as "trusted but outpaced" across all 4 models — same declining-narrative pattern we documented in inaugural run, now reinforced. New brand momentum: MOVA broke into Perplexity P1 ranking (notable as no other model surfaces MOVA at this position). Eufy C28 emerged as Gemini-specific flagship-tier pick. Narwal disappeared from cross-model presence after appearing in inaugural run.
