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, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers are an excellent option for those who wish to get mopping off their to-do list. They are equipped with impressive mapping and obstacle avoidance, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mops then this is the model to go for. It's smaller than other options on this list making it easier to navigate through tight corners and under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides one of my top navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.

It's efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single sweep. Its 8,000pa motor is able to clean dirt hair, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help to tease out debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, isn't as good robot vacuum. The rotating mop spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into narrow corners or on baseboards. Those same front arms can be employed to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys or books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't make as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for mopping, and is separate from the vacuum. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum to mop, you will need to pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums that mop in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device comes with a powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and also detect furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This ensures an even and thorough clean, while also being relatively rapid.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other hard to reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to the walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and can be dried to reduce odors and prevent buildup.

Another feature worth mentioning is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo allows you to alter the strength of suction and choose between a back-andforth or more randomized pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it will make, which will affect how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also disable the side brush in order to protect your carpets from damage. carpets.

The device has a expensive price tag, but it comes with a large selection of advanced features. It is important to note that the device incurs periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad should be replaced every three to six months.

This robotic vacuum cleaner has an excellent Amazon rating and includes an array of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean button' as well as a 'Home button that allows it to go back home after cleaning. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys 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 a good option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home neat without spending too much time on chores. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life make it easy to keep a clean home with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is an all-in-one vacuum and mop. It is able to perform mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two modules that include a dry bin as well as a water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping unit that is equipped with microfiber pads. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming may seem a bit old-fashioned but they're a good thing because you don't have to think about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature was its accurate map of your floorplan which it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by a mop.

We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in picking up pet hair. It was able to collect many of the hair that our cats shed, and even made it into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was fairly silent and also had a few nice jingles that signalled when it was starting or finished its work.

Its biggest drawbacks were its lack of sophistication and the requirement to switch between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot keep multiple maps. This could be an issue if your house has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want a smart robot that is capable of vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it does have certain unique features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its massive dock that serves as an charging base for the robot cleaner, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks of 4 liters. It also houses a 2.5-liter dust bin and a 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base also comes with a set of buttons to control the system. These allow you to manually start cleaning and then recall the robot or use the dock's automatic vacuum cleaner emptying process. Press two of the buttons to turn off a child lock which is a great feature for parents who are worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path. It will avoid 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 obstacles, like an electrical cord dangling across a rug, that it gets stuck and ceases to function until you free it. This is a rare event however it was frustrating since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert in its application.

Another possible issue is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad but the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and 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 modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad. It's a huge difference from the utilitarian black bases of competitors like Roborock or iRobot. And it's an impressive sight in an industry dominated by boxy models.
