The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for good robot vacuum Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment. His focus is on mopping and robot vacuum combinations. Multitaskers are a great option for those looking to get mopping off their to-do list. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model to choose if you want an automatic Vacuum cleaner (153.126.169.73) that can also mop. It is smaller than other models and makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It uses a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It packs a powerful 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It can even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through cleaning.

It's extremely quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the kitchen, hallways, and living room in one go. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to remove dirt hair, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects carpets, and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The mop rotates at a high rate and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scrubbing up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when you're trying to get into difficult corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger debris such as books and toys that have been damaged.

Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It is quieter and doesn't create more noise when vacuuming or mopping. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and performs well however, it's something you'll have to be aware of if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want an extremely efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the home and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and methodically. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also rapid.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can reach an array of surfaces. They can reach corners or baseboards, as well as other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor close to the walls and other fixtures. Additionally, the mop pads can be dried and washed to avoid build-up and lessen the odors.

App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will determine the speed at which the device can move through your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.

The device has a expensive price tag, but it has a variety of smart features. It is important to keep in mind, however, that the device is subject to regular expenses, such as mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For instance, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad must be replaced every one to three months.

The robot vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an power button that doubles as a 'Clean' button' and a Home button that allows it to go home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or just want a cleaner home without spending a lot of time on chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it easy to keep your home clean with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two modules which include a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module which is equipped with a microfiber pad. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming may appear a bit dated, but they do mean you don't have to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature was its accurate map of your floorplan that it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs, and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers to prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of collecting hair of pets. It was able to capture many of the hair shed by our cats, and even got into some of the corners and crevices of our stairs, where other robots have struggled. It was quiet and even had some pleasant jingles that indicated when it was beginning or finishing its work.

The app was too simple and you had to switch the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't hold multiple maps, which could be a pain when you live in a house with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want an intelligent robot that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it does have some unique features which make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its huge dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot vacuum uk, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks of 4 liters. It also houses a 2.5-liter dust bin and the 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base comes with several control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Press two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents who are concerned about their children messing around with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

This can cause the X1 to get stuck if it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you manually untangle it. While it was not common, it was a frustrating experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert on its application.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't a big deal except for the fact that mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between uses, which can lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuums uk, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its modern, sleek base and mopping pad. It's a big contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome sight in a space which is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
