Dyson Spot+Scrub Ai Robot Vacuum Review (2026)

The vacuum failed to cleanable up 2 of the 3 trial Cheerios that I strategically placed astir my main level to spot which nooks and crannies it could reach. Both had tiny overhangs (one was an Ikea Billy bookshelf and the different a freestanding cabinet) that the Spot+Scrub couldn't get under. It doesn't person an extendable limb to assistance hole the issue.

I ran into a akin contented upstairs. My bath cabinets are the aforesaid basal builder-grade acceptable arsenic my downstairs kitchen, but the Spot+Scrub managed to wedge itself underneath my superior bath cabinets and past struggled to region itself. It did the aforesaid happening with my debased furniture frame, forcing itself underneath aft galore attempts, and past it couldn't get out. I marked the furniture arsenic a no-cleaning portion successful the app, but, similar the room island, since the Dyson representation doesn't cognize wherever my furniture is, I had to guesstimate, leaving a bully information of the chamber without immoderate vacuuming.

Still, it did a bully occupation of cleaning my upstairs carpet. While this robot vacuum tin representation aggregate floors, the cognition wasn't arsenic wholly creaseless arsenic I had hoped. When the Spot+Scrub finishes cleaning connected a level without a basal station, it'll instrumentality to the starting position. Once you determination it to the dock, it'll conscionable commencement charging without emptying. That means erstwhile it goes to enactment connected my main floor, the mop pad isn't cleaned, adust debris is inactive near successful the vacuum, and the soiled h2o enclosure isn't dried. It's astir similar it resets itself, forgetting its past function.

So if you're utilizing it connected aggregate floors, prevention the 1 with the docking presumption for last. I ended up having the Spot+Scrub cleanable my main level aft the upstairs, conscionable to marque definite the vacuum would beryllium afloat emptied and dried. You besides person to activate the cleaning relation portion the robot is inactive successful its docking station, truthful it tin prep for mopping, past intermission the cleaning (you tin bash this successful the Dyson app oregon connected the vacuum itself) erstwhile it rolls retired of the docking presumption to past assistance and determination it to different floor.

AI Wars

Of course, there's the diagnostic this vacuum is named for: its built-in AI that spots stains and scrubs them away. The Spot+Scrub uses an HD camera to inspect the floors, past uses AI to analyse what it sees and cognize erstwhile to scrub occupation spots. It'll spell backmost and distant implicit those spots, and the AI volition cipher however often it needs to bash truthful to region the stain.
