The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at good robot vacuum Housekeeping.

He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum reviews vacuum combos. These multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to get mopping off their to-do list. Some have great navigation and obstacles avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free cleaning.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to select if you're looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It is smaller than other models and makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It features a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best rated robot vacuum navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.

It is very efficient and does an outstanding job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways in just one motion. Its suction motor of 8,000pa will quickly pick up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects carpets, and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scrubbing up dirt and stains. I've also noticed that the front arms extend out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and on baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like books and broken toys.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't produce the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It is easy to set up and works well. However, if you are buying this robot vacuum for mopping it is important to pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a variety of features.

The device has a powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the house and detect furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean effectively and efficiently. This will ensure an efficient and consistent cleaning, while also being relatively fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. These include corners or baseboards, as well as other difficult-to-access spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and dry to reduce odors and prevent buildup.

Another notable feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo allows you to alter the intensity of its suction and choose between a back-andforth or more random patterns. You can also alter the number of passes it must make, which will affect how quickly the device can move around your home. You can even choose to disable the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.

The device is costly, however it has many useful features. It's important to remember that it carries periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hrs, and the mop pads should be changed every one to three months.

This robot vacuum mop has an excellent Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The vacuum also has an energy button that doubles as the 'Clean button' and a Home' button to send it back home after cleaning. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the dustbin and refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a professional with a lot of work or someone who wants a cleaner home without spending a lot of time on chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. It is a powerful machine with intelligent navigation, and long battery life that allows you to keep your home clean with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, that is, it can do mopping and vacuuming. It has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming might seem a bit outdated however, they mean you don't have to think about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers to prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up pet hair. It was able to capture the majority of hair that our cats shed, and even found its way into the nooks and crevices of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was silent and also had a few pleasant jingles that indicated when it was about to start or finished its work.

The app was too simple and you had to change the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't contain multiple maps, which could be a problem for homes with multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who want a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum with mop vacuum that can be found in our review, but it comes with some unique features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is most notable for its huge dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses a 2.5-liter dust bin as well as a 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning task, recall the robot, or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the Omni Omni utilizes its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path and avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more precise at recognizing objects.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it is entangled in a blockage like the power cable that is draped over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. This was a rare incident, but frustrating nonetheless, because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You'll need to manually swap between the two, which isn't too bad except for the fact that mopping pads aren't washed and dried between use and can cause mildew or mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek, modern base and mopping pad. It's a significant departure from the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing sight in a space that is dominated by clunky boxy models.
