Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos
Robot vacuums and mops are increasingly capable, acing our cleaning tests and tackling a variety of floor types. Look for models that allow you to select from a variety of modes, and use their charging docks to automatically empty and clean up the stairs.
Many of the top models are compatible with your smartphone. Look for an app that lets you save maps, create schedules and select cleaning modes.
1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
The gunmetal and gloss black Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combos available. It makes use of lidar to navigate and create maps of rooms and floors (even multiple levels) and is compatible with the free Eufy Clean app that lets you set schedules and alter the S1's behaviour.
The S1 was able to map my downstairs quickly, which comprises linoleum flooring in the dining area, kitchen and bathrooms, as well as large rugs and a medium-pile. It was capable of driving up to walls and even across thresholds that are raised without issue. However it had some issues navigating down the stairs in one go. The S1 performed well in cleaning hard floors. Its mop drove smoothly on its flat side and lifted itself when it reached carpets or rugs.
The docking station of the S1 automatically empties its dust bin and refills its water tank on board with clean, ozonated water prior to every mopping session. The dock adds a deep-cleaning solution for the water. The S1 water tank is able to hold up to 12 cleaning sessions, but this will differ dependent on how often you use the mop.
The S1 requires regular maintenance, just like other 2-in-1 robots. For this, you'll need to clean the dirty water tank occasionally to prevent it from clogging. It is also necessary to clean the swivel wheels and sensors regularly to keep them from getting clogged by dust or dirt. However, overall, the S1 is easy to maintain, especially compared to other models that require more hands-on maintenance.
2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete
This all-in-one robot vacuum and mop combo from Ecovacs is a powerful option for cleaning needs. Its robot vacuum boasts 8,700Pa of suction, and comes with many innovative features, including full home mapping, voice control, and smart path-planning that eliminates obstacles and cleans furniture. The mopping feature is remarkable, with mops rotating that actually lift and scrub the floor, as opposed to just moving the pad across it. Mops can also be cleaned and dried at the base station, if needed.
The robot vacuum uk comes with a simple interface that guides you through the process. It also comes with a hand vacuum which can be used to clean hard-to reach areas that the robot hoover and mop is unable to reach. There are also two water tanks that can be automatically emptied or filled. It also comes with a variety of useful settings to fine-tune your cleaning preferences.
The Deebot X2 Combo Complete is a great vacuum cleaner. It has a strong suction which can easily remove dirt and other debris that other robots struggle with. Its navigation capabilities are pretty robust, however it can sometimes get caught in the small carpets or area mats that I have in my house (which is something you can mitigate by creating a virtual boundary in the app). The mopping capabilities are quite impressive, and comes with a pair of spinning mops that actually lift and scrub floors, instead of simply dragging the pad across it. The mops can be cleaned using heated water and dried in the basestation when required. Mops can also be replenished at the top of the station when they are required.
3. Dreame X40 Ultra
Dreame released the luxe X30 Ultra earlier this year, but their new top-of-the-line robot vacuum and mop has even more impressive features. It offers outstanding cleaning results and hands-off maintenance making it a top contender on our top robot vacuum and mop list. Its superior mapping abilities, RGB AI smart detection and a larger side brush ensure that an effective, customized cleaning is accomplished.
The X40 Ultra vacuums well, it can remove both large and fine debris. It is equally effective on hard floors and carpets. It cleaned the dirtiest areas of our tests with ease while avoiding pet hairs and other messes. The sweeping power is enhanced by an additional side brush that automatically moves out to tackle difficult-to-reach corners, and an extendable mop pad that is placed along baseboards.
Its navigation system is nimble that can navigate narrow spaces and negotiating stairways without skipping a step. It can move from one area to another without having to reverse direction which is a great feature for homes with many rooms. Its obstacle avoidance is not as advanced than the ones of other competitors, and leaves a huge margin around obstacles. This can result in missing spots.
The app is streamlined user interface that is designed to be easy for both novice and experienced users. The app lets you plan and manage cleanings, adjust suction power and mopping settings, view 2D and 3D maps, and more. You can control it via the app, Alexa or Google Assistant. You can even tap into the X40 Ultra's camera remotely to get real-time video supervision. But, you'll need a stable Wi-Fi connection in order to operate it via the app and external controls.
4. Roomba Q5 pro
A robot vacuum does a great job of removing debris and dirt however, it's not able to reach every last particle of dust. This is why it's important to use your regular vacuum once every week, and especially to remove dust from corners and on shelves and in the crevices of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop robot that was designed specifically for this purpose. It is easy to connect it to your WiFI network at home and works with Alexa or Apple Siri.
The Q5 is a stripped-down version of the company's more expensive S-series models, which include the flagship Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It uses the same LIDAR mapping sensors, but it's less expensive because it doesn't have mopping capabilities and has a plastic body.
The Q5 is still one of the most powerful vacuums and mopping machines we've ever seen at this price even though it's not able to clean your floors. It has a suction power of 5500Pa and an automatic-empty system, so you don't have to empty the bin manually each time. It comes with a smart application which allows you to schedule cleanings and set the floor type. It also has an automatic vacuum and mop water tank filling system and washing system for hands-free operation.
Its mops are also impressive with their 2700Pa power that can combat pet hair and dirt, on both carpets and hard floors. The Q5 is one of the few robots we test that didn't have issues with high-pile carpets or area carpets, but it didn't pick up cables or kitty litter that's not a surprise given that it doesn't have AI-powered obstacle avoidance.
5. K10 Plus
K10 Plus is one of the quietest robot vacuums we've tested. It also utilizes a unique system to map your home. This really helps it get into corners and tight spaces that other vacuums cannot reach. This device also has a larger bin, so you don't need to empty it as frequently. It also has washable filters which reduces the cost. The robot can also recognize carpets and increase suction if needed. You can also mark areas you would like to be able to keep from using the app.
