The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment. His focus is on robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. These multitaskers are a great option for those looking to cross mopping off the to-do list. Some have great mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free cleaning.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to choose if you want a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other options which makes it easier to maneuver into tight corners or under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar that, 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 best automatic vacuum cleaner. It packs a powerful 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 replenish its battery midway through an efficient.

It's extremely quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single pass. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to remove dirt as well as pet hair and poop effortlessly. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs, and the dual side brush helps to remove debris from corners.

The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as effective. The rotating mop spins at a high rate and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and stains. I've also noticed that the front arms stick out slightly more than other robots that vacuum and mop, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and on baseboards. Those same front arms can be used to sweep larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys or books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot vacuum uk mops and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't make as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping, and is separate from the vacuum. It's simple to install and performs well however it's something you'll have to be aware of when you purchase this vacuum for the sole purpose of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for a highly effective, versatile and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map your home and identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This will result in a thorough, consistent clean which is also relatively quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners and baseboards as well as other hard-to-reach areas. They also have a flexible side brush that can be extended to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to eliminate odors and stop buildup.

App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction intensity and choose an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also alter the number of passes it must make, which will determine how fast the device will traverse your home. You can also disable the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and rugs.

The device is costly, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It's important to keep in mind that it has periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and the mop pads should be changed every one to three month.

This robotic vacuum cleaner has a high rating on Amazon and includes a broad range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has a power button which doubles as the 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it home after cleaning. It also has a multifunctional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank to mop and washes and best robot vacuum that mops dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who just wants an organized home that doesn't require a lot of time on chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a solid option. It's a top-performing device, intelligent navigation, and long battery life that makes it easy to keep your home clean with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a two-in-one vacuum and mop. It is capable of vacuuming as well as mopping. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping system with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of position. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming but it does mean you don't have to worry about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its precise floorplan which it uses to determine 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' and virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by a mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair from pets. It was able to capture the majority of hair our cats shed, and even was able to get into the nooks and crannies of our stairs which other robots struggled. It was fairly quiet and had some lovely jingles to indicated when it was beginning or finishing its work.

Its biggest drawbacks were its lack of sophistication and the need to switch out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app isn't able to hold multiple maps, which can be a problem for homes with multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a excellent choice for those who want a device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. It does however, have distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses a 2.5-liter dustbin and a 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base also has a variety of control buttons that allow you to start cleaning or recall the robot or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch on a child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify 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.

The X1 can be prone to become stuck if it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it happened, especially since the X1 Omni does not come with a "stuck" status alert on its application.

Another possible issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually swap between the two modes, which isn't too bad aside from the fact that mopping pads aren't washed and dried between uses and can cause mildew or mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a big change from the utilitarian black bases of competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing view in a market that is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
