The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He conducts tests and reviews of cleaning equipment. His main focus is mopping and robot vacuum combinations. Multitaskers can be ideal for those looking to eliminate mopping from their to-do lists. Some of them have excellent mapping and obstacle avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free clean.


The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking to buy a robot vacuum that also mop, this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than other models and makes it easier to maneuver 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 that I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.

It's extremely fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in one go. Its 8,000pa motor is able to remove dirt, pet hair, and even droppings with ease. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs and the double side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as good. The mop rotates quickly and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a little more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into tight corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can also be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys or books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't make the same volume of 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 has to utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and is effective however, this is something that you'll have to keep an eye on if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole purpose of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile and ad-hoc cleaning machine.

The device comes with a powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map your home and locate furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean effectively and effectively. This results in a thorough, consistent clean that is also quite fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards, and other hard-to-reach spots. good robot vacuum can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to the walls and other fixtures. The mop pads can also be washable and dry to eliminate odors and stop buildup.

App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the strength of suction, and choose between a back-andforth or more random pattern. You can also select the number of passes, which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.

The device comes with a high price tag but has a variety of innovative features. robot vacuum cleaners best is important to note that the device is subject to recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hrs, and the mop pads must be changed every three month.

This robotic vacuum cleaner is a top Amazon rating and comes with many physical automation features. These include an energy button that can also function as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home' button that will send it back to its base station after finishing the cleaning process. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin and refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. It's a top-performing device, smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home tidy with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it is able to handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping system with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers, which can help to protect specific areas of your home from being cleaned with a mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture an enormous amount of hair our cats shed, and even found its way into the nooks and crevices of our stairs while other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were pleasant jingles to let you know that it was starting and getting its work done.

The app was too basic and you had to change the modules every time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app is not able to save multiple maps. This can be a problem if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want a smart robot that can do both vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. It does however, have some unique features which make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is most notable for its huge dock that serves as a charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two water tanks of 4 liters. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dust bin and an 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base also comes with a set of buttons to control the system. These let you manually start a cleaning task, recall the robot, or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two of the buttons to toggle a child lock, which is a nice touch for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

Similar to other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses 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.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck when it gets caught in a hazard, such as a power cable tangled over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. While this was rare but it was a very frustrating experience when it happened and especially because the X1 Omni does not have a "stuck" status alert in its app.

The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad however, the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

On the positive side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who dreamed up its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad apparatus. It's a significant contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome appearance in a market that is dominated by clunky boxes and clunky models.
