1. iRobot Roomba Combo j5+

The Roomba Combo J5+ is the latest 2-in-1 model from iRobot's high-end line that comes with mopping and vacuuming features. It's powered by iRobot OS, which helps it get smarter over time and creates the Smart Map of your flooring. This allows you to label rooms and make cleaning schedules, as in defining no-mop zones for your carpets. It utilizes vSLAM navigation, and has the ability to detect obstacles and objects thanks to iRobot's latest obstacle avoidance technology. It is also able to detect carpets of all kinds, from low-pile up to thick, and alter the cleaning mode in line with the carpet.

This model, like the iRobot Combo j7+ features Power-Lifting Suction. It is designed to be used for vacuuming as well as mopping. It has separate dirt bins and another mop/vacuuming combination bin that you can fill with water or liquid cleaner. The robot automatically switches from vacuuming to mopping mode based on its bin contents.

Using the iRobot's Enhanced MVac Mode, the Roomba Combo j5+ delivers powerful suction to keep your floors spotless. This mode uses the Clean Base Automatic Dirt collection system to empty the dirt bin of the robot and provide you with a unrestricted hands-free experience. The Combo J5+ features an individual power switch that allows you to instantly switch between cleaning and mopping.

The iRobot Home App makes it simple to use and set up your robot. With just a few clicks, you can create a customized cleaning schedule for your entire home or just one room. You can also view your robot's status and monitor it remotely.

You can make use of your smartphone to initiate an exercise in cleaning or make it a command using your voice. The iRobot Combo j5+ supports Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant, making it easier to pair with your existing smart home devices. It also is equipped with pet-safe technology P.O.O.P (Pet Owner Official Promise) which assists the robot to steer clear of pet-related mess. This is a great choice for pet owners looking to enjoy the convenience of robotic vacuums and mops.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner with a good amount of features for the money. It is able to run for a long time and does a fantastic job of cleaning carpeted and unfinished floors. It also comes with a useful app that works well with Alexa. It lacks the mapping features and other advanced controls that are found in the more expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum has an extremely powerful motor that has a multi-surface brush roll that can reach into cracks and corners to ensure that your home is spotless. It also comes with bumper sensors to prevent collisions and a lower cliff sensor that prevents the robot from falling down stairs. It can even be programmed to run a single room or set of rooms at scheduled intervals, and it is capable of resuming cleaning sessions that had been stopped midway through.

The Shark ION is very effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it is unable to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It also gets stuck under furniture. It is capable of avoiding obstructions, and has a runtime of 90 minutes.

One of the great things about this robot is its simple-to-use interface. There's a circular cleaning button on the top of the unit, which you can push to begin a cleaning session or utilize your phone to open the Shark ION app and give it a voice-command. After you've completed that, the app will display the current battery level and the status of the vacuum, as well as if it's completed a complete or partial cleaning session.

Many customers also loved the fact that this robot can be controlled by Alexa. This vacuum can be turned off and on by simply speaking. You can also set up cleaning times with the app. The only downside we have found with this model is that it takes longer to charge than some of the other models we've looked at, and the two included hand vac attachments can't fit into the base and could be lost easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Apart from being a top-rated robotic vacuum in the market, this Samsung model also doubles as a home monitoring camera. It comes with a lens you can access through your smartphone and is designed to watch the surrounding area of your home. You can also set up a schedule for when you want it to patrol the house while you are away. This is great for pets that shed or you want to watch out for anyone who is sneaking in.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is equipped with a range of features, including object recognition home monitoring, self-emptying bins for dust, and five layers filtering. It's a great choice for those who want an excellent model that can clean hard floors, but aren't afraid of some dust on carpets.

The advanced obstacle avoidance of this robot vacuum that vacuums and mops is one of its best features. It uses a combination of sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the environment and detect objects. It either navigates around the object or mark it as an area that is not allowed on the map. This feature isn't available on other robots, which makes the Samsung the best choice for your home.

On the other hand, this model doesn't do very well on spot cleaning. We tried it out by scattering rice grains on carpets with low pile and sending the robot in to clean. The robot was unable to take up or push the rice grains. This is a disappointing result considering that other models have performed better in this test.

It's important to note, too, that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ can be quite expensive when compared to its rivals. Other robotic vacuums offer the same quality and performance at a lower cost. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, robot vacuum that vacuums and mops for instance is a top-rated robot vacuum that provides similar features for half the cost.

The SmartThings application is used to control this robot as well as other Samsung smart products. The process of setting up is simple with prompts in the app to guide you through the process. The app lets you view the map, create cleaning schedules, adjust suction power and zones of no-go areas, and manage other settings. It also shows the current status of your robot and lets you know when the dust bin needs to be cleaned.

Its Matrix Clean Navigation, which employs a grid-like pattern to clean every corner of your home, can also recognize stairs. It includes an integrated remote that makes it simple to adjust settings.

Another plus is that it works by using voice commands, so you can begin and stop the cleaning process through an app on your smartphone or tablet.
