• Mopping, and on top models a dock that washes and dries the mop.
• Obstacle avoidance that steers around cables, socks and pet waste.

Buying tips

• If your home has one main floor and few rugs, a mid-range mapping vacuum is often all you need.
• Count the running costs: bags, filters, brushes and mop pads need replacing.
• Last year's flagship is often discounted heavily when the new one arrives.
