Every LiDAR robot we tested mapped our 140 m² test apartment in under 15 minutes on the first run — versus 41 minutes and three runs for the camera-based Roomba Combo j9+. The JONR R7 Pro is our Editor's Choice for combining LiDAR with structured-light obstacle avoidance at $699; the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra has the most refined map editing.
LiDAR is now the default for any robot over $250. The remaining differences are map editing tools, multi-floor handling and whether the LiDAR is paired with a second sensor for obstacle avoidance.
