The
Best Robot Vacuum That MopsNoah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who want to remove mopping from their to-do lists. Some have great mapping and obstacles 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 to go for. It's smaller than the other models on this list, making it easier to navigate in tight corners and under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers one of my top navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It can even return to its dock to recharge its battery mid-clean.
It's very quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single sweep. Its 8,000pa suction motor is quick at picking up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the double side brush assists in removing debris from corners.
The mopping performance is a little less impressive, though not by a lot. The mop rotates quickly and uses 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which is useful to get into tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like books and broken toys.
Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest
Best robot vacuum uk vacuums and mop I've ever tried. 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 drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping, and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's simple to install and performs well, but it's something you'll need to keep an eye on if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole purpose of it 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 choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile, and customizable cleaning machine.
The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out your home, find furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean effectively and intelligently. This will ensure an even and thorough clean, while also being relatively quick.
In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads are capable of reaching many different surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other hard to reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to extend to the floor, close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to remove odors and prevent buildup.
Another noteworthy feature is the customization options that are available through apps. The Q Revo allows you to alter the amount of suction and select between a back-andforth or more randomized pattern. You can also alter the number of passes it must make, which will determine how fast the device will move around your home. You can even choose to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.
It's expensive, but has many smart features. It is important to note, however, that the device incurs regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads should be changed every one to three months.
The robot
auto vacuum and mop mop is a top Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with a power button which doubles as a 'Clean button' as well as a 'Home' button to send it back home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock which automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank, and cleans and drys its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal choice for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home tidy without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation, and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean house with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a 2-in-1 mop and vacuum. It is able to perform mopping and vacuuming. The robot has two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping module with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of position. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming may appear a bit dated however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.
Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature is its precise floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly 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 mop.
We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair from pets. It was able capture a large amount of hair that our cats shed and even found its way into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels of the robot were low, and there were some lovely jingles that let you know that it was in the process of working towards its goal.
The app was too basic and you had to switch the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't store multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has several floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. It does however, have distinct features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that serves as an charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses a 2.5-liter dustbin and the 2.5 milliliter dust bin.
The base also comes with a set of control buttons that let you manually start a cleaning job or recall the robot or use the dock's
automatic vacuum and mop emptying process. Press two of the buttons to turn off a child lock which is a great option for parents concerned about children playing with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to identify obstacles and furniture 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 occasionally get caught up in an obstruction, such as the power cord that is draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and stops working until you manually free it. While this was rare, it was a frustrating experience when it happened, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't come with a "stuck" status alert in its application.
The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You will need to manually switch between the two, which isn't an issue except for the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between uses and can cause mildew or 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, sleek base and mopping pad. It's a big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. It's also a welcome sight for an industry dominated by boxy units.
