The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers can be an excellent choice for those looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and some 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 is smaller than other options and makes it easier to maneuver into tight corners or under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it some of the best rated robot vacuum navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that 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 the dock to top up its battery midway through cleaning.

It's efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single pass. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to clean dirt, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help draw out debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, though not by a lot. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arms stick out slightly more than other robots, which is helpful to get into tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to pick up larger objects such as books and toys that have been damaged.

Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It doesn't produce the same volume of sound while vacuuming or mopping and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It's simple to install and performs well, but this is something that you'll have to be aware of in case you're purchasing this vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device comes with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the house and identify furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and effectively. This will ensure an efficient and consistent cleaning and is also fast.

In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surfaces. They can reach corners and baseboards as well as other difficult-to-access spots. The side brush can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to the walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads can be washed and dried to avoid build-up and lessen the odors.

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

The device is costly, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It's crucial to keep in mind that it has periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example brushrolls need to 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 replaced every one to three month.

The robot vacuums that mop [relevant site] vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and includes an array of physical automation features. This includes an energy button that doubles as a general 'Clean button as well as a Home button that will take it back to its base station after completing the cleaning process. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the trash bin and refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or just want to have a clean home without spending hours doing chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent choice. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean home with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuums with mop vacuum and mop, which means it can handle both vacuuming and mopping. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping system with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of the way. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming, but it does mean that you don't have to worry about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature was its precise floorplan map, which it uses to create the path to follow when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair of pets. It was able capture a lot of the hair that sheds from our cats. It even made it into the nooks and crannies on our stairs where other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were nice jingles to let you know that it was in the process of getting its work done.

The app was too easy and you had to switch the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app isn't able to contain multiple maps, which can be a problem if you have a home that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want a smart robot that can perform both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our test, but it has some distinctive features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni's main draw is its massive dock that doubles as the robot's charging base and robot vacuum cleaners uk housing for two water tanks, a sink for cleaning and a 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically emptys.

The base also has a number of control buttons that allow you to manually start a cleaning task and then recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

Similar to other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system will map your home 10 times faster than laser detection systems and is four times more accurate at recognizing objects.

Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally become 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. This was a rare incident however, it was a bit frustrating since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad but the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This could lead to mildew and mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed the sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for a market dominated by clunky boxes.
