Our verdict on each
UWANT
UWANT suits US households who want a lot of cleaning power for the money rather than a household name they already trust. It draws 9.1 overall, and its top cordless model reaches 50,000 Pa, the highest figure recorded among 46 brands in the field tracked here.
Xiaomi
Xiaomi suits Romanian households that want a single brand account across floor care, air and kitchen kit, and the flagship robot adds a self-empty dock with a 10 mm mop lift. Robot specs sit mid-pack rather than at the very top, and support runs on email, chat and phone.

Pros and cons
UWANT
Pros
- Entry price of $69.99 puts a working machine within reach of a small budget.
- Peak suction of 50,000 Pa ranks 1 of 46 brands, and equals the site maximum 50,000 Pa.
- Runtime of 60 minutes on the docked model covers a large home in a single charge.
Cons
- Warranty of 2 years is short beside a long cover, so faults after that window fall on you.
- Mopping runs on a roller system, and roller systems are the smaller share of the field at 25.5% against 36.4% for pads.
- Markets are listed as US only, so buyers elsewhere face shipping and voltage questions.
Xiaomi
Pros
- The flagship robot pairs a self-empty dock with a 10 mm mop lift, so carpets are handled without swapping tools.
- Lidar navigation on the flagship robot, in line with 94.7% of tracked robot vacuum brands.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, so help is not limited to email when something goes wrong.
Cons
- Mop lift of 10 mm places Xiaomi 10 of 12 on that measure, the lowest of its tracked rankings.
- Peak suction of 10,000 Pa sits under the category median of 15,000 Pa and ranks 30 of 46.
- The flagship RON 2,339 ranks 34 of 66 on price, so the top of the range is not the cheap option.
Who each suits
UWANT
Who it suits
- Households in the US shopping for a stick or wet-dry vacuum on a tight budget.
- Buyers who put a suction figure at the top of their list and want a self empty dock included.
- Anyone happy buying direct and replacing parts from the brand's own store.
Who should look elsewhere
- Shoppers who want a robot vacuum, since UWANT's stick, wet dry and handheld does not include one while Philips covers robot vacuum and wet dry.
- Buyers who want more formats from one brand, since Daewoo Electricals and Ewbank list robot vacuum, stick and upright and robot vacuum, stick and upright.
- Anyone outside US who wants easy local returns and spare parts.
Xiaomi
Who it suits
- Households that want a single maker across robots, sticks, wet-dry and handheld cleaners, since robot vacuum, stick and wet dry covers the full set.
- Owners of flats with tight furniture clearance: the flagship robot stands 9.7 cm tall and keeps a 4,000 ml bin.
- Buyers who want phone and chat help, since support runs on email, chat and phone rather than email alone.
Who should look elsewhere
- Shoppers who want an upright in the same basket: Daewoo Electricals and Ewbank both list uprights, which robot vacuum, stick and wet dry does not cover.
- Buyers who prefer a dedicated floor-care maker: Philips keeps a shorter list at robot vacuum and wet dry, while Xiaomi spreads across robot vacuum, stick and wet dry.
- Anyone budgeting tightly at the top of the range: the flagship RON 2,339 ranks 34 of 66, so entry models from Ewbank or Daewoo Electricals deserve a look instead.

Questions about each
UWANT
What does the cheapest UWANT vacuum cost?+
Entry price is $69.99, which places UWANT 10 of 65 brands on that measure, so it sits near the cheap end of the field. Site entry prices run from €0.89 up to €1,753.05, with a typical figure of €96.46.
How much is the most expensive UWANT machine?+
The top of the range is $399, and that flagship places 25 of 66 brands. It is a stronger relative showing than the entry price, so money is better spent higher up the range than at the bottom of it.
Xiaomi
How much do I pay at the entry and the top end?+
The Romanian store lists products from RON 1,954, with the flagship priced at RON 2,339. Budget for the machine itself rather than a plan that renews, and check the return policy, which allows 14 days, before a large order.
Does the robot empty its own bin?+
Yes. The flagship robot pairs a self-empty dock with an onboard bin of 4,000 ml that empties after a run. Mopping runs from a pad, and that pad lifts 10 mm when the machine reaches a carpet.
