Best Automatic Vacuum and Mop Combos
The Narwal Freo X Ultra is one of the best robot vacuums and mops I've tried. Its base station comes with an enormous water tank as well as a dustbin, and its dual rubber brush is less likely to tangle hair than single bristles.
Its mopping performance is strong and its AI mapping excels in getting around obstacles. It can also stop the cleaning process, and then resume from where it left off.
1. Roomba Combo j9+
The Roomba Combo J9+ is a robot mop that doubles as a vacuum cleaner that is among the most advanced available. It has an elegant, self-emptying Clean Base that can hold up to two full mopping cycles. It is even designed to look like a small table. It's also the only robot mop we've tested with an onboard water reservoir that automatically cleans and refills the pads for cleaning after each vacuuming and mopping cycle.
The mopping arm is positioned in a discreet manner at the top of the unit. It lowers when it spots hard surfaces and it begins to scrub. It moves slowly and cautiously over surfaces to ensure that it doesn't accidentally smear wet mud or spills across carpeted areas. It also does a fantastic job in keeping itself away from furniture, cords, and other obstacles.
It's more intelligent than other robot vacuums, too, thanks to the iRobot Home app, which lets you customize your cleaning settings and prioritize rooms based on dirtiness set cleaning schedules and times and more. The app also offers detailed maps of your home, seasonal tips, custom cleaning routines, and intuitive smart-home integrations.
This robot vac/mop uses iRobot’s Imprint Smart Mapping Technology to identify objects like tables, sofas, and counters. It can be controlled using Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri, making it easy to clean your home.
In contrast to other mopping and vacuum robots like the Roomba J9+ is able to create a complete map of your home 7x faster than previous models and labels each area by floor type, ensuring that it'll always remember to mop or vacuum where you want it. It also has a new Turbo Mode that boosts suction power for tough places. And with iRobot's Dirt Detective, it can detect your cleaning habits and preferences to automatically adjust cleaning priorities and settings, like mop scrubbing for the most soiled areas of your home.
2. Yeedi M12 Pro+
The Yeedi M12 Pro+, with its user-friendly interface and premium features is a formidable competitor in the market of automatic mop and vacuum robots. Its powerful suction and innovative mopping technology make it an ideal cleaner for smart homes. Its affordable price and smart automation also make it a great choice for households on a budget.
To begin using the M12 device, simply download and launch the Yeedi app and follow the instructions on screen to connect it to your Wi-Fi network. After connecting, you'll be asked to give your robot an individual name. The M12 only works with 2.4GHz networks.
The M12 provides a variety of cleaning options for vacuuming and mopping. Its intelligent design allows it to map a room in just six minutes and alter its cleaning path accordingly. Its advanced mopping features include two spinning pads and electronically controlled water and a "True Edge" Adaptive Edge Mopping System that ensures a thorough cleaning of all edges.
Navigation-wise, the M12 utilizes LiDAR and IR to avoid obstacles. Its sensors are adept at finding larger objects, like HVAC vents and furniture. However, they may struggle with smaller objects like cables and rags that are small, which could cause the robot to miss spots.
The M12 is also able to detect and navigate stairs thanks to its built-in inclinometer. It also has the ability to automatically return to its OMNI station to clean and dry its mop brushes and refill its water tanks. When its batteries run low it can OMNI station can also automatically empty the trash bin and clean itself.
3. Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra
The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra is the bleeding edge in robot cleaning, packing an amazing number of features into an attractive package. It has the highest mopping capacity as well as a camera for increased obstacles to avoid and a powerful vacuum with the ability to tell when it's going over carpets. It also includes advanced intelligence and voice assistant capabilities.
It's an extremely powerful mop and vacuum cleaner. It was able to complete our 1,500 square foot test area in just 101 minutes, before the battery drained and it returned to its dock. The mop is washed between use, which reduces maintenance costs and helps keep its pads clean. Additionally, there is a dock sensor that detects when the mop pad is dirty and initiates washing to keep it clean.
Like its predecessors and its predecessors, like its predecessors, the S8 MaxV Ultra features an intelligent system that recognizes household objects like shoes and pet waste using the camera and LIDAR combo. It performed well in our obstacle avoidance test with just one minor hiccup (it became stuck while unwinding a ball wool that was tangled around its brush arm).
The S8 MaxV Ultra has a new suction force of 10,000pa which is more than two times more powerful than its predecessor. This makes it a great choice for homes that have lots of carpet and a mix of flooring types. The vacuum can also be set to automatically increase suction when moving dirt or crumbs.
Similar to the previous models, multiple docking stations can be installed to automate the cleaning and mopping process. The docking station is connected to the plumbing system and drain and refill the water tank after you're done.

The X40 Ultra offers automatic cleaning of its base station and dust collector filter. The mop pads are cleaned in hot water and drained, and the water tank that is contaminated is automatically cleaned after every cleaning session.
It offers advanced options to customise the cleaning schedule. For instance you can select the exact start and stop time for each cycle, or whether it should vacuum carpets first before mopping. It is also able to be instructed to clean areas that are particularly filthy and choose to boost its suction power around litter boxes for cats as well as pet food bowls. The X40 Ultra is programmable to perform specific tasks, like cleaning the bathroom toilet or kitchen sink.

5. Eufy S1 Pro
The Eufy S1 Pro has been designed as an extremely powerful vacuum and mop combo that is also user-friendly. The gunmetal base station fills its own tank of clean water, emptying the dustbin into a smaller container and washes and drys its own mop pads in between cleaning sessions. It has advanced features that let it switch between carpets and hard surfaces, and remove pet hair from carpets and clean high-level thresholds in rooms.
The S1 Pro has excellent navigation and mapping capabilities, thanks to its internal dToF system. It can keep the appearance of a low-profile, while offering excellent detection of objects. It can drive up to walls and avoid steps without crashing. It also raises the mop automatically when driving on short-pile carpets. It had a difficult time when it came across carpets with longer piles as well as some long, thick messes with dried-on debris.
Like many robots like it, the S1 Pro comes ready to take off from the box, and requires only a quick initial mapping run to learn its way around your home. The map will then be displayed in the app and you can add or merge rooms as you need to. You can also set up virtual boundaries, no-go zones and no-mop zones if you don't want the robot to get into certain items.
The S1 Pro is a great option for homes that have flooring of both types, since it has the ability to mop and vacuum. However the fact that it relies on an Eufy-branded cleaning system (which is included in the box) makes it less flexible than other robots that allow you to build your own solutions. Its ability to mop and vacuum is a great choice for homes with different types of flooring, but its reliance on a Eufy-branded cleaning solution (which is included in the box) can make it less flexible than some other robots that let you add your own solutions.
