The Tapo RV30 Max Plus gets called one of the best sub-$300 LiDAR robots for hard floors: mapping is fast and precise, the app lets you dial in per-room pass counts and no-go zones, and the self-empty dock is loud but brief. Happy owners with five cats and four dogs run it daily on schedules and say floors stay cleaner than with old iRobot and Shark bots. Long hair wraps the main brush and needs the included cutter tool after most runs. Battery often needs a mid-clean recharge on larger single-floor homes, the mopping means manually filling the onboard water tank and attaching pads each time, and a few one-star reviews cite map drift, failed dock returns, and WiFi dropouts.
