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 tests and evaluates cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers can be an excellent choice for those looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. Some of them have excellent mapping and obstacles avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free cleaning.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mop, this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than other models on this list making it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the most effective navigation and object avoidance that I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to the dock to replenish its battery halfway through an efficient.

It's extremely efficient and does an outstanding job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single sweep. Its 8,000pa suction motor will quickly pick up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs and the dual side brush helps to remove debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, isn't as effective. The mop rotates quickly and makes use of 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms stick out slightly more than other robots that vacuum and mop, which is helpful to get into tight corners and along baseboards. The same front arms can be employed to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys or books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot cleaner mops and vacuums I've used. It doesn't create the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for its mopping function and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is easy to set up and performs well. However should you purchase this vacuum solely for mopping purposes you must pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a range of features.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the home and detect furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean effectively and effectively. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also rapid.

In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach a wide range of surfaces. These include corners and baseboards as well as other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads can be cleaned and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce odors.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction level and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it must make, which will determine how fast the device will traverse your home. You can also choose to turn off the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.

It's expensive, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It is important to keep in mind, however, that the device incurs regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad must be replaced every one to three months.

This robotic vacuum cleaner is a top Amazon rating and includes an array of physical automation features. It has a power button that can also function as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home button that sends it back to its base station once it has completed its cleaning task. It also comes with a multifunctional dock which automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank, and wash and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home tidy without spending too much time on chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean home with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 best robot vacuum and mop vacuum and mop which means it can handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may seem a bit old-fashioned however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature is its precise floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily between rugs, furniture, and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up pet hair. It was able to collect a large amount of hair that shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crannies of our stairs which other robots struggled. It was fairly quiet and had some pleasant jingles that let you know when it was beginning or finishing its work.

The app was too basic and you had to alter the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app isn't able to hold multiple maps, which could be a hassle for homes that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who are looking for a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our test, but it has some distinct features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is most notable for its enormous dock that serves as a charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses the 2.5-liter dustbin and a 2.5 milliliter dust bin.

The base has several control buttons that allow you to manually begin a cleaning task, recall the robot or run the dock's best automatic vacuum cleaner emptying procedure. Press two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to spot obstacles and furniture in its path. It will stay clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more accurate at recognising objects.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets caught in a blockage like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you manually untangle it. This was a rare occurrence however it was frustrating because the X1 doesn't have an "stuck status" alert in its app.

Another possible issue is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll have to manually swap between the two modes, which isn't an issue except for the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between uses which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad. It's a big departure from the utilitarian, all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing view in a market that is dominated by clunky boxes and clunky models.
