The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

The Q Revo is a great choice if you are seeking a robot vacuum and mop that is mid-range. It gives a great mopping experience, but it lacks the features that make up its more expensive counterpart.

During testing it was able to handle dust and dry oats on carpets of medium pile as well as pet hair on hard floors. It doesn't employ LIDAR however, as cheaper models do to identify your home.

iRobot Roomba s9+

The iRobot Roomba S9+ is one of the top-rated robot vacuums. It is a powerful cleaner and a variety of features, including the self-emptying dirt container built into its charging base. This robot can also learn your cleaning habits and suggest automated schedules to provide a hands-free and effortless experience.

It's easy to set up thanks to the iRobot Home app that walks you through the procedure. Once everything is connected, you can begin the automatic cleaning functions at the touch of a button. You can choose an overall clean that emphasizes cleaning up larger debris like rice and cereal or two detailed maps of your home to ensure your entire home gets a proper look.

This robot mop vacuum vac performs well on both floors that are bare and low-pile carpet. It can take in large objects and does not lose suction as fast as other models do and can remove pet hair without much difficulty. It's not the best time with plush or high-pile carpet, but iRobot promises it will improve with future models.

The S9+ features a new design from iRobot that is focused on enhancing edge and corner cleaning. It's the first Roomba to adopt a flat-fronted D-shaped design, which will allow it to fit into furniture and walls. It's a significant improvement over hockey puck-shaped robovacs which are common, but we found it to be just marginally superior to circular models.

iRobot claims that the S9+ also has a superior filtration system that blocks micro-sized particles and allergens from circulating within your home. We think it's a nice statement, but not enough to justify a higher price.

Its smart navigation system employs a combination of sensors to keep track of your home's layout, and vSLAM technology for mapping the interior. This allows it to stay clear of obstacles, such as stairs and other barriers, and to tidy up your entire home efficiently possible. The iRobot Home App allows you to schedule cleaning times and create virtual boundaries so that the robot can determine what areas require extra attention.

2. Roborock Q Revo

When it is about robots that combine mopping and vacuuming the Roborock Q Revo is a standout. Its vacuum settings are as effective as those found on more expensive models. And its mopping system is superior because its spinning pads clean your floors better than an ordinary pad that vibrates.

The only downside is that it doesn't have an additional rubber brush to allow to provide more thorough cleaning, but that's a small cost to pay if are looking for one of the top robots available. The robo-vac's dust tank is also bigger than those on many of its competitors and it takes only two or three cycles to fill it, even with the maximum dirt level.

For the mopping system, I was amazed by its ability to scrub tough dirt off my floors. The two mopping settings that it has which are less powerful than the high-powered ones, create little noise, so you can work or even watch television without being distracted. If it comes across a wall or piece of furniture it gently smacks into it and moves along.

What sets the Q Revo apart is that it's designed to function almost completely autonomously, requiring only a little for user intervention. The dock of the robo-vac can be multi-functional and can automatically transfer trash into a hidden bin. It also cleans and dries, as well as refills the clean water tank. The app is good at notifying you when something is in need of attention, like the water tank being empty or a scheduled vacuuming session having been canceled due to a full dust bin.

You can also create or merge rooms to alter the way Q Revo treats your home. That's a handy feature for those who have multiple rooms in your home that have different flooring materials or there's some clutter that needs to be cleaned out frequently, like clothes, toys and books. The robo-vac is also very efficient and was among the top performers in my tests, taking debris from both carpets and hardwoods in its first run. It is able to even remove wet spills however I would recommend cleaning them off with a cloth before sending the robot in.

3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni

The X2 Omni has all of the features you'd expect from a high-end robot vacuum that vacuums and mops vacuum and mop and more. It comes with an omni-rotating mop as well as a powerful vacuum that can clean carpets as well as hard floors. It's akin to the iRobot Roomba S9+. It also comes with a self-cleaning station that automatically cleans and empty the mop pads, keeping them fresh and ready for reuse. It also has a sensor that recognizes obstacles better and Irobot Vacuum Cleaner prevents it from falling onto furniture and other objects.

The biggest improvement over the ECOVACS Deebot X1 is that this version is sleeker and more modern design due to Danish firm Jacob Jensen Design (best known for Bang & Olufsen products). The robot is still large--it has a height of more than two feet height and depth and weighs nearly four pounds. However the robot as well as its base are smaller than the Roborock Q Revo or irobot vacuum cleaner j7.

This model is more efficient than the X1 since it charges faster and can clean 1,500 square feet in one charge. It also has a bigger dustbin that is more durable and can hold more debris which makes it easier to empty when needed.

The X2 Omni also has a more intuitive voice assistant and an app that is functional even if you are not at home. It also has an intelligent routing feature that allows it to clean specific rooms or areas of your home instead of following a set path.

The X2 Omni is the top robot at mopping. Its rotating mop pads remove tough stains and its motor produces lots of downward pressure. Its vacuuming performance is outstanding as well, and it boosts suction when it senses carpets to ensure that it does the job well. It has a large, rechargeable battery that can last up to seven days. The mopping mode of the robot is also extremely effective.

4. Dreametech L10s Ultra

The Dreametech L10s Ultra is a high-end mop and vacuum robot that comes with a variety of features that you aren't likely to find on robots of this price. It can create detailed floor maps and identify different flooring types. It's also among the few robots that automatically clean and dry its mop pad. These features are nice, but they also place the L10s in the premium category. This might make it more expensive than homeowners need.

Designed to look like a modern floor cleaner designed to look like a modern floor cleaner, the L10s Ultra is a tall and slim device with an elegant white finish that's highlighted by mirror plating and silver elements. The front of the machine is dominated by a large bumper, which protects the vacuum and furniture from damage when moving through the house. Sensors are hidden behind the front pane, which helps the L10s Ultra navigate tight corners and avoid obstacles.

On the top, there's one button that basically is a switch for on and off. By pressing this button, you can activate the vacuum, and pressing it again will turn off the vacuum and send it back to its base station. The center of the control panel is a circular menu that lets you choose cleaning modes, schedules, and preferences. The left and right buttons below the screen will open the settings menu of the app where you can modify how the L10s Ultra interacts with your home.

Like the iRobot Roomba S9+ and Roborock Q Revo, the L10s Ultra uses a combination of LIDAR and camera-based navigation techniques to help you map out your home. This helps the robot clean and mop efficiently, without getting stuck. The LIDAR also assists the robot vacuum recognize and avoid obstacles, which is a nice feature for households with children or pets.

The L10s Ultra provides solid vacuuming performance that clears 98.4 percent of the debris from our hard-floor test and removing all but the most stubborn juice stains. Its mops also do a great job and remove 98.4 percent of debris from our carpet, tile and wood tests. However, it wasn't quite as effective in removing sand from the hard floor and quaker oats on the carpet.
