The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances. His focus is on mopping robots and vacuum combinations. Multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and some wash and refill their own mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you should select if you're looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list making it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers some of the best robot vacuum cleaner and mop navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It will even return to the dock to top up its battery halfway through a clean.

It is very efficient and does an outstanding job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in one go. The suction motor's 8,000pa makes short work of picking up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the two side brushes help pull out debris from corners.

The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as impressive. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high velocity and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into narrow corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and fallen books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't produce as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely for mopping purposes 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 equipped with a broad array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners looking to purchase an extremely efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device has a powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the house and identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean intelligently and effectively. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also rapid.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surface areas. This includes corners, baseboards, and other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor near to the walls or other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads can be cleaned and dried to prevent build-up and reduce the odors.

App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also select the number of passes, which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can also disable the side brush in order to protect your carpets from damage. carpets.

The device has a high price tag but comes with a large selection of innovative features. It is important to note, however, that the device incurs recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hrs, and the mop pads should be changed every three months.

The robot vacuum that mops has a high rating on Amazon and includes a broad range of physical automation features. These include an energy button that serves as a general "Clean button as well as a Home button that will take it back to its base station once it has completed the cleaning process. It also has a multifunctional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home neat without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation, and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean house with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 Robot vacuums that Mop vacuum and mop, which means it is able to handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two components, a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping module which has a microfiber pad. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our test subjects discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its best feature is its precise floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in picking up hair of pets. It was able to capture a large amount of hair shed by our cats and even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was fairly quiet and had some lovely jingles to signalled when it was beginning or finished its work.

Its main drawbacks were its simple app and the necessity to change out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot store multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want an intelligent robot that can perform both vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our test, but it also has unique features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni is most notable for its enormous dock that serves as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses a 2.5-liter dust bin and the 2.5 milliliter dust bin.

The base comes with a few control buttons, which allow you to manually start a cleaning task or recall the robot hoover, or run the dock’s auto vacuum and mop-emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to toggle a child lock, which is a nice option for parents concerned about their children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic hoovers 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 could occasionally become so entangled with an obstruction, such as an electrical cord dangling across a rug--that it becomes stuck and stops working until you free it. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it happened particularly since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert in its application.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't a big deal apart from the fact that mopping pads aren't washed and dried between uses, which can lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuums best, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who dreamed up its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad. It's a big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an impressive sight in a market dominated by clunky boxy models.
