10 best smart home tech gadgets on Amazon UK

Smart robot vacuums have been on the market for a while now, and while they certainly aren't cheap, they can cut hours off your weekly chores list, and leave your house more sanitary and healthy to live in.

This Uoni V980Plus model has multi-floor mapping capability, strong suction and can run for 190 minutes without charge. When the robot has finished vacuuming, it will simply return to its charging port and its dust box will be automatically cleaned with the help of the high-power dust collection function.

Plus, the machine is voice-controlled, so you can easily instruct it without having to get dusty yourself. Now that's smart!
