The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment. His main focus is robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. Multitaskers can be ideal for those looking to eliminate mopping from their list of tasks. Some models have superior navigation and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking to buy a robot vacuum that also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than other options and makes it more maneuverable in tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best rated robot vacuum navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery in mid-clean.

It's extremely fast and does an excellent job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single sweep. Its suction motor of 8,000pa makes short work of picking up sand, dirt and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs, and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The rotating mop spins at a high rate and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scrubbing up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms extend out a bit more than other robots, which is useful for getting into tight corners and on baseboards. The same front arms can be used to sweep larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and fallen books.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuum cleaner reviews vacuums and mop I've ever tried. It doesn't produce as loud of a 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 has to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's simple to install and performs well, but it's something you'll need to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum solely for the purpose of it mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a variety of features.

The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out your home and also find furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This ensures a thorough and consistent clean, while also being relatively rapid.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners and baseboards as well as other hard-to-reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor close to the walls or other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and dry to remove odors and prevent buildup.

Another noteworthy feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction strength and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also choose to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging rugs and carpets.

This device has a fairly high price tag but has a variety of advanced features. However, it's important to remember that it carries regular expenses in the form of mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads must be replaced every one to three month.

This robot vacuum that mops (This Resource site) has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. It has the power button that doubles as a general 'Clean button, as well as a 'Home button that sends it back to its base station once it has completed its cleaning task. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin and refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good option for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home neat without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life allow you to keep a clean home with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop that is, it can do mopping and vacuuming. The robot vacuum best has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

Our test subjects discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature is its precise floorplan map, which it employs when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture rug, furniture, and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which help to keep specific areas of your home from being scrubbed with mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture some of the hair that shed by our cats, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies of our stairs where other robots had struggled. It was fairly silent and also had a few lovely jingles to let you know when it was starting or finished its work.

The biggest flaws were its simple app and the necessity to change between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app doesn't have the capacity to store multiple maps, which can be a problem if you have a home with multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who want a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, but it comes with some distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as a charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dustbin and an 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base also has a variety of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning task and then recall the robot or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni like other robotic hoovers vacuums uses its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more precise in finding objects.

The X1 can be prone to become stuck when it is entangled in a blockage like the power cable that is draped over a rug. It won't work until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event however, it was a bit frustrating because the X1 doesn't have an "stuck status" alert in its app.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad but the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between use. This could lead to mildew and mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a major contrast to the utilitarian, black bases of competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing appearance in a market that is dominated by clunky boxes and clunky models.
