Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo Self Empty

Vacuum and mop combos take the guesswork out of cleaning hard floors. These machines are perfect for mopping quick cleaning between deep vacuuming.

If you're looking for a hands-free mopping experience, you should consider the Roborock S7 Max Ultra. Its base is bulky but not unattractive and it can hold clean and dirty water tanks that are large enough for multiple sessions.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo J7+ takes the excellent Roomba J7 vacuum and adds on a wet mopping function. This intelligent robot is able to clean up sticky messes and spills while avoiding obstacles, and then returns to its dock at the end of its cleaning routine. It's a great choice for homes with hard floors. It can also be used to clean tiles or rugs with multiple surfaces.

The Combo j7+, like all Roomba models, is great at sucking up dirt. Its smart navigation is bolstered by iRobot OS technology and PrecisionVision which allows the robot to detect common objects in its path--such as pet waste or cords--and stay clear of them completely. The iRobot Combo j7+ can even avoid furniture, such as tall chairs with backs that could trap the robot beneath them.

When the iRobot Combo j7+ realizes that it's on a surface that needs to be cleaned with water, a tiny robot self emptying vacuum arm lifts up and mopping swings a small mopping pad under it. It was a very intuitive system that performed well during my testing. It was not able to remove water-based liquids such as wine or juice. Fortunately, the mopping pad can be easily cleaned and reused.

The camera in the front of the iRobot Combo is also useful. It can spot potential hazards, such as power cables and pet waste, and steer clear of them to ensure a thorough cleaning. This feature is better than the majority of robot vacuums' cameras, as they may get stuck on items like rug tassels. The iRobot Combo ju7+ front camera has blind spots that can cause it to miss certain objects.

The iRobot Combo ju7+ is expensive, but it does the job adequately enough to justify the cost. It has a high rating from its customers, who love its innovative features. It's worth looking into alternatives, such as the Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni. It's less expensive than iRobot Combo h7+, and it can heed voice commands without the need for third-party integration. It also mops and vacuum in one pass. It also has an enormous water tank and its mopping pads are self-cleaning.

Miele Scout RX3 Home Vision

The Scout RX3 Home Vision robot vacuum and mop is a full-featured robot vacuum that has all the smart features you'd expect of an expensive brand. You can remotely monitor your home through its camera and even watch it operate through the app (though the app itself doesn't offer the high-resolution image quality you can get from the camera).

The mops do a great job of cleaning tile carpets, wood, and rug surfaces, as well as removing dust, dirt, and hair of pets. They also have efficient obstacle avoidance that doesn't swoop small and small objects, like toys or socks, across the floor. It's among the top mopping robots that we've ever tested. It also comes with a magnetic strip can be used to block off areas the robot will not be in a position to reach like rooms that have a lot of cables.

However, the robot falls short of other features of its kind. While the mops do a fantastic job, their maximum runtime is 60 minutes which is a bit lower than what we'd expect to see from a high-end product. It also doesn't automatically empty itself into the charging station, or follow up a mopping session with the quick vacuum.

But it's an ideal choice for people who have large homes as the mapping and cleaning processes are quick and efficient. The app is simple to use, and you can also set up time frames for when it will operate. You can still use the remote to control it if do not have a strong WIFI connection.

The Miele Scout RX3 Home Vision isn't cheap, but its many intelligent features make the difference. Live monitoring of homes is fantastic, and it looks pretty cool as well. It's a great option for parents with small children or pets, or anyone who wants to monitor their house while they're away. Most people who have an automated mop and vacuum claim to be amazed by how their floors improve after starting to utilize them regularly.

Roborock S7 Max Ultra

The S7 Max Ultra, Roborock's new robot vacuum and mop combination self-empty ($1299 on Amazon) is an excellent upgrade to the S6 and S7 models. It adds a host of useful features, such as more aggressive mopping as well as higher-powered suction (up to 5,100Pa compared to earlier models with 2,400Pa). It also has precise lidar navigation, which functions as radar in 3D that is, it can see things such as baseboards, chair legs, and furniture legs to effortlessly navigate around them. It can create customized cleaning routines that you initiate by tapping for example, an "After Meals mode" that intensively cleans and vacuums kitchen floors.

This two-in-one also has a special feature not found on other robots: VibraRise, which raises the mopping plate once it detects carpeting so it doesn't let area rugs get wet and makes mopping more efficient. It also has the ability to deep clean and mops carpets in a single pass, removing dust and dirt more efficiently than mops that spin. The app can be used to schedule weekly cleanings or to clean on demand.

While the S7 Max Ultra does a excellent job in its tasks however, it's not without its flaws. The price is the biggest. It's the highest-priced robot vacuum and mop combination I've reviewed. The other issues aren't specific to this model and more representative of the robotic vacuum category as a whole It's not able to deal with heavy spills or large, sticky messes very well.

The S7 Max Ultra is easy to setup: just connect it and sync it to your phone using Wi-Fi and start a cleaning run. Once you've completed that, you can customize the settings of the app, including setting no-go zones and scheduling cleanings.

Its impressive obstacle avoidance is another major benefit. In the course of testing, it only slid into tight spaces twice, which is better than the S6 MaxV’s three attempts or the X1 Omni’s four tries. The app lets you mark an object as a temporary obstruction, and the S7 Max Ultra ignores it during subsequent cleaning.

Narwal Freo

The Narwal Freo is a unique robot that combines mops and vacuums. It's among the most affordable combo bots we reviewed. The Freo is an excellent option for anyone looking for a combination cleaner. Its outstanding cleaning performance, as well as its many customization options, make it an excellent option. The lack of advanced obstacle-avoidance technology, as well as a sleek mobile app diminished our enthusiasm for the model.

The first thing you need to do is scan your space. This will help Freo map the area that it will cleanse. It takes around a minute to complete this task. Once the Freo has a better idea of where everything is it will be able to navigate more quickly in subsequent cleanings.

Another cool feature is the Freo's ability of registering an area as dry vacuuming or mopping so it can be more efficient when switching between these functions. It's also smart enough to know when its mop pads become dirty and then automatically return to the dock to refill and then return to dry clean hard surfaces.

The Freo's ability to mop and vacuum carpets is a key strength. The twin mops pads automatically raise when the Freo comes into contact with carpet. This allows it to use less energy and resources while still getting rid of debris. It also efficiently cleans up spilled oatmeal and sand without the need for multiple vac/mop runs.

The Freo's unique tilted side brush are inspired by street sweeper trucks and do a nice job of pulling in and sweeping out dirt particles. The Freo's sleek design and high-end finish make it a striking device. You can interact with the robot by using an LCD touchscreen on its base station, however we prefer to control it using the app on your smartphone.

The app has a range of options to alter Freo's behavior. This includes schedules for busy areas and spot cleanings. There's also the option to turn on parental lock. You can also choose the length of time it takes for the Freo to dry its mop pads, and the frequency you wish it to empty its bin. You can even specify the maximum size of the trash bin.
