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

He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers are a great option for those who wish to take mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than the other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it some of my favorite navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery in mid-clean.

It's extremely efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways in just one sweep. The suction motor's 8,000pa makes short work of picking up dirt, crumbs and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the dual side brushes help to tease away debris from corners.

The mopping performance is less impressive, though not by a lot. The mop rotates quickly and makes use of 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into narrow corners or on baseboards. The front arms can be used to sweep larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and fallen books.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuum and mop vacuums and mops I've ever tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce more noise when vacuuming or mopping. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping, and is separate from the vacuum. It's easy to install and works well however this is something that you'll need to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum solely for the reason of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

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

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and locate furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean methodically and intelligently. This results in a thorough, consistent clean that's also fairly quick.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads are capable of reaching many different surface areas. This includes baseboards, corners and other difficult to reach spots. They also have a flexible side brush that can extend to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and dry to eliminate odors and stop buildup.

App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the intensity of its suction, and choose between a back-andforth or more randomized pattern. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will affect the speed at which the device can move around your home. You can also deactivate the side brush in order to protect your carpets from damage. rug.

It's expensive, but has many smart features. It is important to keep in mind that the device will incur periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example brushrolls need to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hrs, and the mop pads must be changed every one to three month.

This robot vacuum that mops is rated highly on Amazon and includes a broad variety of physical automation features. This includes the power button that can also function as a general 'Clean button, as well as a 'Home button that will take it back to its base station after completing its cleaning session.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who wants to have a clean home without spending hours doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent option. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life allow you to keep a clean home with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it can handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two modules which include a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped out and in and a mopping module that is equipped with a microfiber pad. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming might seem a bit outdated but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature was its precise floorplan map, which it uses to draw a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly between rugs, furniture, and Best Robot Vacuum That Mops other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up hair from pets. It was able capture many of the hair that our cats shed, and even got into the corners and crevices of our stairs, where other robots have struggled. It was fairly quiet and had some pleasant jingles that indicated when it was starting or finishing its work.

The app was too easy and you had to switch the modules every time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app cannot store multiple maps. This could be an issue if your house has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot that can perform both vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. However, it does have distinct features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's main draw is its huge dock which doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink, and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically empties.

The base comes with a couple of buttons for control that allow you to manually begin a cleaning task, recall the robot or run the dock's automatic vacuum and mop robot emptying procedure. Hold down two of the buttons to toggle the child lock, which is a nice feature for parents who are worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the X1 Omni uses its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more precise in finding objects.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally get caught up in an obstruction, such as a power cord draped across a rug, that it gets stuck and stops working until you free it. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen particularly since the X1 Omni does not have a "stuck" status alert on its application.

Another potential downside is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad but mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.

On the positive side it's worth noting that the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad. It's a big departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for an industry dominated by boxy units.
