The Roomba Combo j5+ is the newest 2-in-1 model in iRobot's premium line, and includes both vacuuming and mopping functionality. It's powered by iRobot OS which makes it more efficient and smarter as time passes. It also creates an outline of your floors.

It uses vSLAM navigation and can see obstacles and objects due to iRobot's brand new obstacle avoidance technology. It is also able to detect carpets of any kind, from low-pile up to thick, and alter the cleaning mode in line with the carpet.

Like the iRobot Combo j7+, this model features Power-Lifting Suction and is designed for both vacuuming and mopping. It comes with an additional dirt bin as well as a second mop/vacuuming combo bin that you can fill with liquid cleaner or water. The robot automatically switches between mopping and vacuuming modes according to the contents of its bin.

Using the iRobot's Enhanced mVac Mode, the Roomba Combo j5+ delivers powerful suction to keep your floors spotless. This mode also utilizes the Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal feature to empty the robot's dirty bin, allowing you to enjoy an unrestricted experience. The Combo J5+ also has a separate power button that allows you to immediately switch between mopping and vacuuming.

It's simple to set up and use your robot with the iRobot Home app. With a few taps, you can create a customized cleaning plan for your entire home or a single room. You can also monitor your robot remotely and check its status.

You can use your smartphone to start cleaning or control it using your voice. The iRobot Combo j5+ is compatible with Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant. This makes it easier to pair your 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 messes. This is an excellent choice for anyone who has pets but would like the convenience of a vacuum and mop combinator.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION robot vacuum cleaner is a basic model with lots of features. It offers a long-lasting run time and does a great job of cleaning both bare floors and carpeted rooms. It also comes with a helpful app that works well with Alexa. It isn't equipped with mapping features and other advanced controls that are found in higher-priced competitors.

This robotic vacuum comes with powerful motors and a multi-surface brush roll to penetrate into cracks and corners to make sure your home is clean. It also includes bumper sensors to keep out collisions and the lower cliff sensor stops the robot from falling down the stairs. It can be programmed to clean the room or set of rooms on a regular basis.

The Shark ION is very good in cleaning floors that are not clean. However, it has a difficult time to remove pet hairs and other debris from carpeted surfaces. It is also prone to getting caught in furniture. It does a good job of avoiding obstructions, and can run for up to 90 minutes.

One of the best things about this robot is its easy-to-use interface. You can either press the round cleaning button at the top of the unit to initiate a cleaning, or launch the Shark ION App on your smartphone and issue it a command. Once you've done that the app will display the current battery level and the status of the vacuum, and also if it has completed a full or partial cleaning session.

Many customers also loved the fact that this robotic works with Alexa. You can easily turn this vacuum on and off with an easy voice command, and you can also make use of the app to plan cleaning times. The only thing we didn't love about this model was that it took a longer to charge when in comparison to other models we've reviewed. Additionally the two hand vac attachments aren't able to fit in the base and can easily be lost.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Apart from being a top-rated robotic vacuum This Samsung model also doubles as a camera for home monitoring. It comes with a lens that accessible via your smartphone and is designed to monitor the surrounding area of your home. You can also set up a timer for when you want it to be patrolling the home when you are away. This is great for robot vacuum mops pet owners who shed or if you want to watch out for anyone sneaking in.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a high-end model that comes with a variety of features including object recognition and home monitoring, a self-emptying dust bin, and five layers of filtering. It's a good choice for people who want an excellent vacuum that performs well on hard floors, but does not mind a little dust on carpets.

The advanced obstacle avoidance of this robot is among its most impressive features. It utilizes sensors and artificial intelligence in combination to scan the surrounding area and identify items. It either navigates around the object or declares it an area that is not allowed on the map. This feature isn't present on other robots, which makes the Samsung an extremely safe choice for your home.

This model isn't particularly adept at spot cleaning. We tested it by scattering rice grains on carpet with a low pile and then sending the robot to clean. The machine did a fairly poor job of moving the rice grains and failed to pick up any of them. This is a disappointing outcome in light of the fact that other models did better in the test.

It's also worth noting that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ can be a bit pricey in comparison to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums offer similar quality for less. For example, you can find a top-rated robotic vacuum that has the same features for half the cost with the Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid.

As with other Samsung smart devices, this robot can be controlled through the SmartThings app. It is easy to set up thanks to the app's instructions. The app lets you look at the map, set the cleaning schedules and suction power settings and select no-go zones and manage other settings. It also shows the current status of your Robot Vacuum Mops and lets you see when the dustbin must be empty.

4. Manvins Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

This all-in-one vacuum is the perfect solution for those who are not ready to invest in a robot vacuum and separate mop. This model is priced at less than half the cost and features four cleaning modes. The vacuum dust bin is easy to empty and the mopping tank holds up to 200 milliliters (or 7 pounds).

In the last year, we tried this robot in our Cleaning Lab and found it to be very efficient on both low-pile and hard floors. Its unique Matrix Clean Navigation uses a grid pattern to ensure every area of your home is cleaned, and it also has the capability of detecting stairs. It has an adjustable remote that makes it easy to alter settings.

Another benefit is that it operates with voice commands, so you can start and stop the cleaning cycle using an app on your tablet or phone.
