The robot vacuum cleaner market is crowded, with options that are likely to fit nearly any budget.

Now, robot vacuums can mop the floors while vacuuming and self-empty the dirt when finished. You can get robot vacuums with security cameras built-in to help keep an eye on your pet while not at home. Buyers have many options to choose from, and we are here to help you find the right one at the right price.

Below are robot vacuums you can pick up for under $500 from brands including Roborock, Yeedi, Wyze, iRobot, Eufy, and more.

Yeedi Vac is a reliable entry-level smart robot vacuum. It comes with brushes, a HEPA filter, a sponge filter, a long-lasting battery, and 3000Pa suction power for less than $200. We recently tested this smart robot vacuum and found it very versatile. It can either vacuum or mop your floor. You must make sure you get the mopping module.

Another nice feature of the Yeedi vac is its ability to connect with Yeedi’s self-emptying station (sold separately) to form a 3-in-1 robot vacuum cleaning system. When you combine this with Yeedi’s unique zone-cleaning technology, you have a viable cleaning machine for your home.

• Eufy RoboVac 11S - $199.99

This remains one of the best budget vacuums we've tested at GearBrain, an affordable robot vacuum for $200. The nice thing about the super slim Eufy RoboVac 11S is that it doesn't need an app — although there is one to help you operate the vacuum if you choose.

Sensors in the vacuum help it from pushing harder against walls, people, and — yes — your dog. Fully charged, the vacuum will work for up to 100 minutes. It also does a good job on hardwood floors and low to medium carpeting. After completing 100 minutes of housework, Eufy returns to the base for a reboot. Unlike the Roomba 980 (and others), which maps rooms so the areas covered aren't overdone and no spot is left untouched, Eufy seems to have a mind of its own, but it still seems to get the home well-vacuumed.
