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 appliances, focusing on robot vacuums with mop vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be an excellent choice for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their to-do lists. They are equipped with impressive mapping and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model to choose if you want a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than other models, making it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of the best navigation and object avoidance features I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through a clean.

It's extremely fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways in just one motion. Its 8,000pa suction motor makes short work of picking up sand, dirt, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help pull away debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, isn't as good. The rotating mop spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arms stick out a bit more than other robots, which is helpful to get into tight corners and on baseboards. The front arms can also be used to pick up larger pieces of debris, such as books and toys that have been damaged.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've ever tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce more noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It is simple to install and works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely for mopping purposes you must be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for an efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and also identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and efficiently. This results in a thorough, consistent clean which is also relatively quick.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards, and other difficult-to-access spots. They also have a stretchy side brush that can be extended to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to eliminate odors and stop buildup.

Another feature worth mentioning is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also select the number of passes which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also decide to turn off the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.

The device comes with a high price tag but comes with a large selection of innovative features. It's important to note that it incurs regular costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For instance the brushroll should be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad should be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean button' and a Home' button to send it back home after cleaning. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the trash bin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. It is a powerful machine with intelligent navigation, and long battery life that allows you to keep your home tidy with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it can handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two modules that include a dry bin as well as a water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping unit that has an elastomer pad. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refueling the tank with water.

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

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up hair from pets. It was able capture a lot of the hair that our cats shed, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies of our stairs where other robots struggled. The noise levels were low and there were lovely jingles that inform you that it was beginning and finishing its work.

Its biggest drawbacks were its lack of sophistication and the need to swap out the modules when switching between mopping and vacuuming. The app is not able to keep multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has several floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who want a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops (visit our website) in our review, however it comes with some distinct features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its massive dock which doubles as a charging base and the housing for two water tanks, a sink for cleaning and the 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically empties.

The base has several control buttons that allow you to manually start a cleaning task or recall the robot, or run the dock's automatic vacuum and mop robot emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni utilizes its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

This can cause the X1 to get stuck if it gets caught in a blockage, such as a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert in its app.

The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad, except that the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to 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 significant departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. And it's an excellent choice for a market dominated by clunky boxy models.
