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 appliances, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. They have impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to pick if you are looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than other models on this list which makes it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar which, when paired with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the most effective navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It will even return to the dock to top up its battery midway through an efficient.

It's very efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. auto vacuum carpeted rooms extremely quickly and hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single sweep. Its 8,000pa suction motor is quick at picking up sand, dirt, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help to tease away debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high velocity and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which is useful to get into tight corners and on baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to collect larger pieces of debris, like books and broken toys.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've used. It is quieter and doesn't produce more noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's easy to install and works well however, it's something you'll need to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum for the sole purpose of it mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners looking to purchase a highly effective, versatile and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device comes with a powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the house and detect furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean efficiently and intelligently. This results in a thorough, consistent clean that's also fairly fast.

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

Another noteworthy feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the strength of suction and select between a back-and-forth or slightly more random pattern. You can also alter the number of passes it must make, which will affect the speed at which the device can traverse your home. You can also turn off the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and rugs.

This device has a fairly high price tag but is packed with a wide array of innovative features. It is important to note, however, that the device incurs regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and mop pads must be changed every three months.

This robotic vacuum cleaner is rated highly on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has an power button that doubles as a 'Clean button' and a Home button that allows it to go home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the dustbin, refills its water tank to mop and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

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

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is an all-in-one mop and vacuum. It is able to perform vacuuming as well as mopping. The robot has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping system with microfiber pads that snap in and out of place. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming however it does mean you don't have to fret about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive 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 also offers the option of setting 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers that help to keep certain areas of your house from being cleaned with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of picking up hair from pets. It was able capture many of the hair our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crannies on our stairs where other robots struggled. It was relatively silent and also had a few pleasant jingles that signalled when it was beginning or finished its work.

The app was too easy and you had to change the modules every time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app doesn't have the capacity to hold multiple maps, which could be a problem when you live in a house with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who want a device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our test, but it comes with some unique features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that serves as a charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dustbin and a 2.5 milliliter dust bin.


The base comes with a few control buttons that allow you to manually begin a cleaning task or recall the robot, or run the dock's automatic emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are concerned about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path. It will stay clear of 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 sometimes get so entangled with an obstruction, such as a power cord draped across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you manually free it. Although this is not a common occurrence, it was a frustrating experience when it happened and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't come with an "stuck" status alert in its application.

Another potential downside is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You will need to manually switch between the two, which isn't a big deal except for the fact that mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between uses which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright 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 big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for the market that is dominated by boxy models.
