Cleaning robots

Autonomous floor scrubber

A ride-on or walk-behind-sized scrubber dryer that maps a building once and then scrubs hard floors on its own.

Good at

Large open hard floors cleaned the same way every night: warehouses, airports, malls, schools.

Watch out for

Corners, edges, stairs and clutter still need people; the robot needs a cleaning plan and someone to empty and refill it.

Models we've catalogued

How to read this. Specs come from each maker's own spec page or datasheet, with the link and the date we checked it. Blank means the maker doesn't publish it (or we haven't found it). Scores are a whirrwork assessment, not a lab test: we only score a model when independent trials or tests exist. Methodology.
