Best Robot Vacuum and Mop With Self-Empting Bases

A self-emptying base makes the robot vacuum worthwhile particularly for those with large homes. This means you don't need to empty the bin more than once every time you run. It keeps your floors clean and it runs more often.

The app allows you to define zones and cleaning schedules. But it didn't avoid obstacles like shoes or furniture legs, as well as the j7 and Q Revo.

1. iRobot Combo J7+

The Combo J7+ is iRobot's first robot mop and vacuum. The Combo J7+ is the top-quality iRobot J7 robot vacuum and adds a water reservoir, a robotic arms that raise and lower mopping mats, as well as new sensors. The result is a very capable two-in-one cleaner that we've discovered to be superior to other robot vacuums that don't mop.

The Combo J7+ isn't equipped with the smart mopping features found in our top choice, but it still does an impressive job of cleaning. It has a powerful brush roll that is effective on both hard floors and carpeted rooms. It can get in between furniture and rugs without issue, even on steep stairs. And it has a strong suction that we were impressed with, though it's not as powerful as the iRobot Roomba 694's.

The Combo J7+ stands out from other robot vacuums because of mopping features that makes use of a rotating brush to scrub the floors. iRobot calls it SmartScrub and it operates by moving back and forth, resembling the way you scrub a floor using mop. The iRobot App lets you enable it on a per-room basis.

Like other iRobot robots the j7 Plus is easy to set up and use. It's also easy to maintain. The dust bin and water tank are both removable, which means they're easy to clean. The iRobot app lets you view videos about how to maintain different elements of the machine, such as changing the mopping pads, and filtering the dust bin.

The only real downside is that you are able to mop using the iRobot Combo if your mopping pad is attached and if its 210ml tank is full. If either of those is missing, it just vacuums. The iRobot App lets you monitor the tank's water level and send notifications when it is low.

2. Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is a sturdy budget-friendly robot that's ideal for mopping and vacuuming. Its mopping performance is impressive, especially for the cost. It is able to mop well on carpets and hard floors with a fine-to- large debris (think hair tangles kitty litter, cereal of all sizes). It also does a fantastic job cleaning dried spills and messes. It also cleans stairs and other difficult-to-get-stuck places well.

The mopping system makes use of the rotating pad to scrub your floors using water, which lifts dirt and grime on stuck-on spots. The pad is then thoroughly dried by 45 minutes of warm air following every cleaning to prevent the growth of mold and unpleasant smells. You can control the robot vacuum with self empty base using the Roborock app or your voice to start mopping, change settings and more.

The vacuuming is also top-quality. It features a powerful suction and high-efficiency filters that remove fine to large debris effortlessly. It's only downside is it's not as effective on carpets with pet hair. Ten percent of pet hair remains on our test surface after two cycles at maximum power, but this isn't uncommon in the world of vacuuming.

The Q Revo has a lot going for it with its outstanding cleaning and mopping to its superb navigation and obstacle avoidance. It's not quite as good as a higher-end mop and robot vacuum however it's an excellent option for anyone on a budget. Additionally, it can charge up to 30% faster than its predecessors and works with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple Siri Shortcuts. That's a lot of convenience for a small amount of money.

3. Yeedi Cube

The Yeedi Cube vacuum/mop robot is extremely affordable and robot vacuum with self empty base has numerous excellent features. It is easy to set up and takes just five minutes. After you have removed the protective tape and plastic, you can scan the QR code on the app to begin. The app is simple and guides you through the process with ease. Once you have it set up, you can begin mapping and cleaning.

The app allows you create maps and customise the layout of your home. The app lets you split rooms into smaller parts so that they can be targeted more specifically. You can create a kitchen map, and another one for the living room. The robot will vacuum the floors at different times in each room.

The Yeedi Cube is unique compared to other robots I've tried. It has an industrial look. Its base station features an edgier design than other robots, with the tank for dirty water and an auto-empty feature on one side and the vacuum on the other. The mop pad, which is reusable, is a separate item, slipping into the top of the robot and affixed to a handle on the front for easy removal and refilling.

The vacuum is as efficient as any other robot I've tested and comes with two side brushes to the single brush in most models. This expands the vacuum's coverage area, and reduces the likelihood of debris being lost around walls and furniture. However, it has some issues with object detection and a tendency to move full speed into objects, like the tassel rug I have in my office.

4. iRobot Braava Jet m6

The iRobot Braava Jet m6 robot mop is a great choice for maintaining your hard flooring. It does a fantastic job and keeps them looking fantastic. It cannot vacuum like the other hybrids, and it is unable to move from hard flooring to carpets or rugs. But, with its long battery life and intelligent mopping capabilities, this model is a great choice for small and mid-sized houses.

It can also be employed in dry sweeping mode, which can clean up to 1,000 sq. ft. in a single charge. It can also draw your floor plan with the iRobot App and clean your rooms in a series with compatible Roomba vacuums.

In wet mopping, the m6 uses precise sprays to dampen the floors in straight lines. It was fascinating to watch and it was able remove even the most stubborn dried-in coffee stains and juice staining from my floors. It can be set up to use less water or more than the maximum amount specified by the app.

The iRobot application is among the best self-emptying vacuum available and makes syncing to your home wi-fi easy. It's packed with user-friendly features such as scheduling, room partitioning and creating no-go zones that give you a precise control over your machine. You can also check how much power remains in the battery to know how long it will last before it has to be recharged or docked. The m6 is available at My Robot Centre in the UK for £499 and the iRobot store in the US for $399 and on Amazon (where it's currently being sold for $399). It's available in white and graphite.

5. Shark RV2610WA

The cost of vacuum and mop robotic cleaners is a major robot Vacuum with self empty base issue. They are convenient, but also expensive. The Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 robotic mop and vacuum that comes with XLHEPA self emptying robot vacuums-Empty base, which we reviewed, costs $699 / PS559 / approximately AU$1,054. If you don't purchase the charging base, you'll still have to spend $549 or PS395 / around $775 AUD.

Shark RV2610WA can be a great choice for anyone looking for a machine that is flexible and able to do both vacuuming as well mopping. It can deep clean stains that are difficult to remove using the stain-lifting device included in the box. The app allows you to schedule the machine to clean at a particular date and time, and it has an innovative feature that lets you control your robot when you're away from home.

The Shark vacuum cleaner is excellent at cleaning and can pick up most debris. However, it is not as efficient on carpets. It's easy to get pet hair caught up in the brushroll, and its dirt compartment can become full fairly quickly. It also has a variety of parts that need regular maintenance and replacement, which could result in recurring costs over time.

There are better options available on the market. The iRobot Combo J7 Plus offers superior performance on both carpets that are not bare and with high pile. It is better built, has an extra-large dustbin and is able to move over obstacles like electrical cords with ease. The iRobot cleaner is more expensive, but is worth it if your goal is an all-purpose vacuum that can do both tasks with ease.
