Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Neato Robotics D800

  • Efficient laser-based navigation for methodical, straight-line cleaning
  • Excellent at removing pet hair from hard floors and carpets
  • D-shape design allows it to clean corners and edges better than round alternatives
  • Convenient app integration for scheduling and setting up no-go zones
  • Automatic recharge and resume functionality so it finishes large areas

What customers don't like about Neato Robotics D800

  • Shorter battery life (around 90 minutes) compared to newer or higher-end models like the D9 and D10
  • Higher price point for the features offered compared to competitors
  • Can require supervision during its initial mapping run
  • Cloud services and ongoing app support may be limited or discontinued due to the company's recent operational changes

Verdict

The Neato Robotics D800 is an intelligent robot vacuum distinguished by its signature D-shape design, LaserSmart LiDAR navigation, and a large 0.7-liter dirt bin. It features an extra-wide 11-inch Spiral Combo Brush that is up to 70% larger than those on round vacuums, a high-performance E11 filtration system that traps 99% of allergens, and provides up to 90 to 100 minutes of runtime with auto-recharge and resume capabilities. Main pros include exceptional edge and corner cleaning, efficient straight-line systematic mapping, and virtual no-go zones via the MyNeato app. Main cons include a tendency to get stuck in tight spaces due to initial navigation algorithm limitations, a smaller battery capacity compared to premium Neato models, and the lack of a self-emptying base.
