The best robot cleaner 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 appliances, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are ideal for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. Some have great mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking to buy a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than other models and makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It has 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 comes with a massive 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It can even return to the dock to replenish its battery part way through an efficient.

It's extremely efficient and does an outstanding job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single sweep. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to pick up dirt hair, pet hair, and even droppings effortlessly. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the double side brushes help to clean debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The rotating mop spins at a high speed and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms stick out slightly more than other robots, which is useful to maneuver around 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 most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It doesn't make the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's easy to install and performs well however it's something you'll need to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum for the sole purpose of it mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums that mop in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for a highly effective, versatile and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the home and identify furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean efficiently and effectively. This will ensure an even and thorough clean and is also rapid.

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 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 eliminate odors and stop buildup.

Another notable feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the amount of suction and choose between a back-andforth, or a more random pattern. You can also select the number of passes which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also disable the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rug.

The device has a expensive price, but is packed with a wide array of innovative features. It is important to remember that the device is subject to periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll should be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and the mop pads must be replaced every one to three month.

This robot automatic vacuum and mop that mops has a high rating on Amazon and includes a broad variety of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an energy button that doubles as the 'Clean button' as well as a 'Home button to send it home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good option for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. It's a top-performing device, smart navigation, and a long battery life that allows you to keep your home clean with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it is able to handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot comes with two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with a microfiber pad that snaps in and out of place. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated, but they do mean you don't have to think about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its best robot cleaner feature was its precise map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine the path to follow when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' and virtual barriers to prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in picking up pet hair. It was able to collect a large amount of hair that shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crevices of our stairs while other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were pleasant jingles to inform you that it was beginning and working towards its goal.

The app was too easy and you had to change the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app doesn't have the capacity to store multiple maps, which could be a pain for homes that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops - great site - in our review, but it also has distinct features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its huge dock, which doubles as a charging base as well as housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a sink for cleaning as well as a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.

The base comes with a few control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Press two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path. It will avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than laser detection systems and is four times more precise in recognising objects.

Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni could occasionally get caught up in an obstacle--such as an electrical cord dangling across a rug, that it gets stuck and stops working 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 app.

Another potential downside is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad, except that mopping pads don't get washed 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 base and mopping pad. It's a big change from the utilitarian all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome appearance in a market that is dominated by bulky boxes and clunky models.
