The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He tests and evaluates cleaning appliances. His focus is on robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. Multitaskers are a great option for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their to-do lists. Some have great navigation and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking to buy a robot cleaner vacuum that can also mop, this is the model to go for. It's smaller than the other models and makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last for up to 170 minutes 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 cleaning.

It's quick and does a great job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways with only one motion. Its 8,000pa suction motor makes short work of picking up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help pull out dirt from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, isn't as impressive. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into narrow corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and fallen books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tried. 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 must use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's easy to install and works well, but this is something you'll have to be aware of in case you're purchasing 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 has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners looking to purchase a highly effective, versatile, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with a powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the house and also find furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean efficiently and intelligently. This ensures an even and thorough clean and is also quick.

In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads are capable of reaching an array of surface areas. These include corners or baseboards, as well as other difficult-to-access spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor near to the walls or other fixtures. In addition, the mop pads can be dried and washed to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the smell.

Another notable feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it should make, which will affect how fast the device will move through your home. You can even choose to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.

The device is costly, however it has many useful features. It is important to note that the device will incur recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example, a brushroll needs to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad must be replaced every three to six months.

This robot vacuum cleaners best automatic vacuum cleaner that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it back home after cleaning. It also comes with a multifunctional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who wants to have a clean home without spending much time doing chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a good choice. It's a top-performing device, intelligent navigation, and long battery life that allows you to keep your home tidy with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it can handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot is divided into two components which include a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping unit that has a microfiber pad. Separate modules for robot vacuum That mops vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated however, they mean you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature was its accurate floorplan map which it uses to draw the path to follow when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair from pets. It was able to collect a large amount of hair our cats shed and even found its way into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was quiet and had some pleasant jingles that signalled when it was beginning or completing its task.

Its biggest drawbacks were its simplistic app and the requirement to switch between the modules to switch between mopping and vacuuming. The app is not able to save multiple maps. This can be a problem if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot vacuum that vacuums and mops is a excellent choice for those 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 mops in our review, however it has some distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is notable for its huge dock that serves as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dust bin as well as the 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base comes with several control buttons that let you manually start a cleaning task and then recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock that is a great feature for parents who are worried about children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more accurate at finding objects.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck when it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable draped over a rug. It won't work until you untangle it manually. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't come with an "stuck" status alert in its app.

Another issue that could be a problem is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad, except that the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This could lead to mildew and mold.

On the positive side, 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 huge difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or robot Vacuum that mops iRobot. And it's an impressive sight in an industry dominated by boxy units.
