Robots That Vacuum and Mop

Robots that vacuum and clean offer the convenience of cleaning dry and wet messes in one go and without the need to switch devices. They can also reduce space compared to two separate units, particularly in smaller living spaces.

A good combination bot must have impressive navigation and obstacle avoidance. Look for models that can automatically empty their bin and refill their water tank, and machine-wash their mopping pads from a dedicated dock.

1. Eufy S1 Pro

It's one of the easiest robots to set up that we've ever tested. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, and the quick-start guide will get you running with a clean, full dust bag, a hard floor solution and water tank in no time at all.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. The mops spin at high speeds and apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, making short work of dirt, pet hair, and dried sticky spills. The vacuum comes with four power modes, a range of brushes and attachments, and a user-friendly application that lets you select the exact kind of cleaning you'd like for each room.

You can, for example ask the robot to clean the kitchen and living room thoroughly but leave the bedroom to itself. The S1 Pro's front colision sensors and smart navigation tech are superb and the robot is able to detect tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. The only problem is that it tends to crash into walls and objects at a high speed. However looking at the cleaning history on the app will tell you exactly what the robot completed, where it's moving, and what obstacles it has encountered or avoided.

A handy LCD screen on the docking station tells you when maintenance tasks need to be done including emptying the debris tray and cleaning the dirty water tank. It is also able to mix detergent into the tank by itself by using a 600ml eufy solution.

Both the S1 Pro mop and vacuum come with a long-running time. The mop can operate for 184 mins in Quiet Mode, and the vacuum can run for 136 minutes in normal mode, prior to needing to recharge or returning back to the base. And you can see the complete cleaning details within the app, which is well laid out and easily understood however we would like to be able to differentiate between a vacuum and mop and vacuum clean when looking at a cleaned area in the history of cleaning.

2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra


The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the latest version of the company's flagship robot vacuum and mop. Unlike last year's model, this one features two agitators in its mopping pad which greatly improves carpet cleaning abilities. The S8 Pro Ultra also has improved suction power, allowing it to remove small hairs and other particles that other robotic cleaners could miss.

The Roborock model, like the other two I tested, has infrared and reactive 3D obstacle avoidance technology that helps it avoid obstacles such as furniture, walls and other obstacles. However, the S8 Pro Ultra takes things an extra step by having a dual camera that can detect objects and determine whether they're a wall or another surface. robot vacuum cleaner cheap is able to change its course automatically and clean the objects, without missing a step.

It's the most expensive model I've tested, but it also has the most features. Its sleek, angular design is striking and only has three buttons that are physically accessible. The power button, which restarts the cleaning process, a mop button that doubles as a child-lock and a home button to take the robot to its dock. Lifting the hinged lid reveals the 350ml dust bin as well as a 200ml water tank. The water tank is automatically filled and the bin automatically refills.

The only issue I have discovered with this model is that the VibraRise mop pad mount isn't movable. While you can replace the mopping cloth (if necessary), it's a pain to remove the mount itself for manual washing. I've noticed that any carpet that the robot touches will be in contact with the rough Velcro like fastener system on the mounts, which could cause scratches.

The S8 Pro Ultra is equipped with a variety of smart features including support for Google Home and Amazon Alexa. You can configure and manage these using the Roborock app that is also the home of its maps and advanced mopping settings. The app allows you to schedule cleanings and track the battery's life. However, you'll have to go through a few hoops in order to allow voice control with this model which is a pity considering the quality of its performance.
