Look for a model that can avoid obstacles, automatically empty its bins and wash its mopping pads to prevent mildewy smells between cleanings. Also look for robot vacuums features to schedule cleaning.

Object Avoidance

Robotic mops are best utilized to complement your current cleaning routine, rather than as an alternative. They're not able to reach all areas of your home and can get stuck on objects such as shoes, toys and books that are left underneath couches and credenzas. They can also be loud when they're mopping and vacuuming at the same time.

It is also important to take into consideration how easy it will be to setup and use your robot mop. Certain models are more complicated to setup and use than others, with some requiring you to download an application, enter your Wi-Fi password and then create an account before you are able to use them. Others are self-contained and ready to go out of the box, making them easy to use from the moment you start.

You'll also need to consider how many reusable or disposable mop pads are included in the model, its water tank size and capacity, if it can be automatically emptied, and its battery life. Some models will even track the amount of dirt that is collected in its dustbin and notify you know when it's full.

These updates are often able to enhance your robot's capabilities, and they're usually free of cost. You'll also find helpful tips and tricks in the user's manual for your particular model that will aid in keeping it running to its full potential.

Floor Mapping

Some vacuum mop robotics, such as the iRobot Braava 320 have sensors integrated into them that allow them to identify and navigate through the floorboards to avoid obstacles. Certain models, like the ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI, come with advanced features. These include a dual-spinner system that can remove dirt deeper, including scuff marks, dried coffee or ketchup, more efficiently than other mopping robots.

To achieve the best results, it's important to thoroughly disinfect clean with mop or vacuum cleaner. This will ensure that your floors are clean and free of harmful bacteria and substances.

The iRobot Braava 430 has a sensor built in that allows it to detect the dimensions and type of the floor it is on, and adjusts its cleaning method accordingly. It then uses an aggressive scrubbing process to remove stains from grout, tiles and other difficult to clean floor materials. It can also vacuum and mop simultaneously and create a schedule for cleaning to keep your floors in good shape at all times.

Other robotic mops such as the Bissell Hybrid come with mop buckets and a dust bin all in one unit, which are emptied at the same time, saving you time. Its mapping feature can be a bit difficult to use because it can get stuck behind furniture or other objects. It can also have issues following walls and will rotate in the same direction for no reason.

You can also modify your room layouts and cleaning settings within the app, for example, editing No-Go Zones and adding virtual barriers. The app keeps a cleaning log that tracks when a device enters a space, and the amount of space it covers. This is a great way to determine if your floors require an extra clean or track dust accumulation in a particular space.

As a general rule the majority of robotic mopping devices require some degree of maintenance to ensure they're working at their best. Check the brush roll regularly, edge-cleaning brushes and other parts to make sure there are no hairs or other debris around them. It is also necessary to clean the charging plate periodically by wiping off dirt and dust. You'll also need to wash or replace cleaning pads, if you have them.

A robot vacuum and mop are an excellent choice for busy families, but it's important to keep in mind that these devices are not miracle workers.
