The best automatic vacuum Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers are a great option for those looking to take mopping off their to-do list. They are equipped with impressive mapping and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to select if you're looking for an automatic hoover vacuum cleaner (click through the up coming article) that can also mop. It's smaller than other models and makes it more maneuverable in tight spaces or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best navigation and object avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last for up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It will even return to the dock to replenish its battery halfway through a clean.

It's extremely efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and the hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in one go. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to remove dirt hair, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help draw out dirt from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, though not by much. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high rate and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, easily scraping away dirt and staining. I've also noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like broken toys and books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't create the same amount of noise when mopping or vacuuming and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for its mopping function and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely to mop you must be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaning machine with a wide range of features.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and also find furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean efficiently and intelligently. This will ensure an efficient and consistent cleaning and is also fast.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can reach a wide range of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards, and other difficult-to-access spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads can also be washable and can be dried to reduce odors and prevent buildup.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the amount of suction and choose between a back-andforth or more randomized pattern. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will determine how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also decide 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 instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad needs to be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum mop is a top Amazon rating and includes many physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has an power 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 which automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank, and cleans and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

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

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, that is, it can do both vacuuming and mopping. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping system with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of the way. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its best feature is its precise floorplan map, which it employs 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' and virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by a mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair from pets. It was able to capture many of the hair that our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots had struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some lovely jingles that let you know that it was beginning and getting its work done.

The app was too easy and you had to alter the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't keep multiple maps. This could be an issue if your house has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who want a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robotic vacuum that is able to mop in our review, however it also has unique features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its enormous dock that doubles as the robot's charging base and the housing for two water tanks, a clean sink and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically empties.

The base has several control buttons that let you manually begin a cleaning task and then recall the robot vacuum reviews or run the dock's automatic emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to toggle the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are concerned about their children playing with the vacuum.

Similar to other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni will sometimes get so entangled with obstacles, like a power cord draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you manually free it. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't come with an "stuck" status alert in its application.

The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad apart from the fact that mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between uses and can cause mildew or mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek, modern base and mopping pad. It's a major change from the utilitarian all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome sight in a space that is dominated by bulky boxy models.
