The S9+ effortlessly tackles various types of dirt and debris on hard floors, leaving them spotless. From fine dust to biscuit crumbs and even cereal, this robot vacuum efficiently collects it all. Its cleaning prowess extends to corners as well, thanks to its five angled arms on the brush, which effectively reach into tight spaces and along walls.
One standout feature of the S9+ is its self-emptying capability. As the robot vacuum goes about its cleaning tasks, it conveniently deposits the collected debris into replaceable dust bags. This means less maintenance for you, as you won’t have to frequently empty the dust bin manually.
While the S9+ offers unmatched convenience and performance, it comes with a price tag to match. It is the most expensive robot vacuum we’ve tested thus far, making it a significant investment. Additionally, the use of replaceable dust bags incurs an ongoing cost, which should be considered when assessing the long-term affordability of this robovac.
Despite its high price, the S9+ delivers on its promise of exceptional cleaning performance and convenience. If you’re willing to make the investment, this robot vacuum cleaner will provide you with a truly hands-off floor cleaning experience. Say goodbye to manual sweeping and vacuuming, and let the S9+ take care of it all for you.

Number 5. Numatic Henry HVR160
When it comes to tackling even the toughest messes, the Numatic Henry HVR160 bagged cylinder vacuum cleaner reigns supreme. This corded powerhouse is a DIYer’s best friend, capable of handling any mess, no matter its size or composition.
During our review, we put the Henry HVR160 to the test in a home undergoing various stages of renovation while also being occupied by a young family. From cleaning up flour and sugar spills to dealing with accidental broken glass and even tackling small chunks of rubble left over from a wall removal, this canister vacuum cleaner proved to be an invaluable addition to the household. The long 2.5-meter hose provided flexibility, allowing us to attach various tools such as the crevice, dusting, and brush/mattress attachments to reach higher areas and tackle hard-to-reach spots.
All the debris collected during our cleaning sessions was efficiently contained in the vacuum’s generous six-liter Hepaflo bag. It took weeks before the bag needed to be emptied, and we were delighted to find that no dust bunnies or debris escaped during the removal process, ensuring a clean and hassle-free experience.
While the bagged design of the Henry HVR160 offers superior containment, it’s important to consider the ongoing cost of purchasing replacement bags. Additionally, the long hose, although convenient for reaching distant areas, can pose a storage challenge, particularly in compact storage rooms. We also found that cleaning stairs with this vacuum cleaner can be a bit of a challenge due to its size and weight. However, if you don’t have stairs to worry about, this is a minor consideration.
