Which robot vacuums handle thick rugs?

Rug ratings, chassis lift and mop lift, robot by robot.

Updated Oct 11, 2026. Makers’ own figures.

Only the eufy Omni S2 is rated for rugs up to 2 in, which it handles by lifting its chassis. The Roborock Saros 20 is rated for carpet pile up to 1.18 in. The Saros 10R and Saros 10 lift their chassis 0.39 in, and the others describe only what they do with their mops.

Pile heightMop lift
A rug rating or chassis lift says whether a robot can climb and clean a thick rug. A mop lift only says how it keeps the rug dry.
