The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment. His focus is on mopping robots and vacuum combinations. Multitaskers are a great option for those looking to take mopping off their to-do list. They have impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and they can even wash and refill their own mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mops then this is the model to look for. It is smaller than other options, making it easier to maneuver into tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers some of the best navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in robot vacuums. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it is able to run longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery during the cleaning.

It's extremely fast and does an excellent job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and the hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single pass. The suction motor's 8,000pa will quickly pick up sand, dirt, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs and the dual side brush helps to remove debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, isn't as effective. The rotating mop spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful in narrow corners or on baseboards. The 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 mop and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't produce the same volume of sound while vacuuming or mopping and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it has to utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However when you purchase this vacuum solely for mopping you must be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a range of features.

The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This enables it to map out your home and also find furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This will ensure an even and thorough clean and is also fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. These include corners and baseboards as well as other difficult-to-access spots. They also have a stretchy side brush that extends to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads can be washed and dried to prevent build-up and reduce the smell.

Another notable feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also select the number of passes, which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can also turn off the side brush in order to prevent damage to carpets and rug.

The device is costly, however it has many useful features. It's important to keep in mind that it has regular costs in the form of mopping supplies and maintenance. For example the brushroll should be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hours, and mop pads should be changed every three months.

This robot autonomous vacuum that mops (puntolock.ru) has a high rating on Amazon and comes with a wide variety of physical automation features. It has an energy button that doubles as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home button that will take it back to its base station after finishing its cleaning session. It also comes with a multi-functional dock which automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good choice for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home clean without spending too much time doing chores. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home tidy with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum with mop vacuum and mop, that is, it can do both vacuuming and mopping. The robot cleaner with mop comes with two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated however, they mean you don't have to think about changing disposable bags or refueling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its best robotic mop and vacuum feature is its precise floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to 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 some of the hair our cats shed, and even made it into the nooks and robot vacuum that mops crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. The noise levels were low, and there were some nice jingles to signal that it was beginning and working towards its goal.

The biggest flaws were its lack of sophistication and the need to change out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't contain multiple maps, which can be a hassle if you have a home with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot that can do both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our test, but it also has distinctive features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock, which serves as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a clean sink, and robot Vacuum That mops a 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically eliminates.

The base also has a number of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning job and then recall the robot or use the dock's automatic emptying process. Press two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to detect 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 can occasionally get caught up in an obstruction, such as the power cord that is draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you manually free it. While this was rare but it was a very frustrating experience when it did happen and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't have a "stuck" status alert in its app.

Another issue that could be a problem is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during the cleaning process. You will need to manually swap between the two, which isn't an issue except for the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between use which could lead to mildew or mold.

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