The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who want to remove mopping from their list of tasks. Some of them have excellent mapping and obstacles avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mops then this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than other options, making it easier to maneuver in tight spaces or under furniture. It uses 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 robot vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 mins when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery in mid-clean.

It's fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, hallways, and living room in one go. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to pick up dirt hair, pet hair, and droppings effortlessly. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the two side brushes help to tease out dirt from corners.

The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as good. The mop rotates quickly and uses 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when you're trying to get into tight corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like broken toys and books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't make the same amount of noise while vacuuming or mopping and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It is easy to set up and performs well. However, if you are buying this robot vacuum for mopping purposes it is important to pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums uk vacuums in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want an extremely efficient, flexible and ad-hoc cleaning machine.

The device has an impressive and powerful cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and locate furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This leads to a thorough, consistent clean which is also relatively quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other hard to reach spots. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor near to the walls or other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and dry to reduce odors and prevent buildup.

Another notable feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also alter the number of passes it will make, which will determine how fast the device will move around your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.

This device is expensive however it has many useful features. It's crucial to keep in mind that it has regular costs, such as mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance brushrolls need to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hrs, and the mop pads must be changed every three months.

The robot autonomous vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and comes with an array of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an power button that doubles as the 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it back home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin and refills its water tank to mop 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 looking to keep their home neat without spending too much time doing chores. It has powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life that allows you to keep your home clean with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is an all-in-one mop and vacuum. It can do both vacuuming as well as mopping. The robot is divided into two components, a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module that includes a microfiber pad. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated but they're a good thing because that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refueling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture rug, furniture, and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by a mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of collecting hair of pets. It was able to capture the majority of hair that our cats shed and even got into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots that vacuum and mop struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some lovely jingles that signal that it was in the process of working towards its goal.

The app was too basic and you had to alter the modules each time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app cannot store multiple maps. This could be an issue if your home has several floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot cleaner with mop vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. However, it does have some unique features which make it worth looking into. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock that serves as the robot's charging base and the housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a sink for cleaning and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.

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

Like other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path and 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 if it is entangled in a hazard like a power cable draped over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

Another potential downside is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during cleaning. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad, except that the mopping pad doesn't get washed or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a big departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for an industry dominated by boxy units.
