You'll Never Guess This Best Robot Vacuum That Mops's Tricks

The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He conducts tests and reviews of cleaning appliances. His focus is on mopping and robot vacuum with mop vacuum combinations. These multitaskers can be an excellent choice for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. Some of them have excellent mapping and obstacle avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mops then this is the model to look for. It's smaller than other options on this list which makes it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It has 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 a robotic vacuum. It packs a powerful 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.

It's extremely fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, hallways, and living room in one go. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to clean dirt as well as pet hair and droppings with ease. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs, and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping performance is a little less impressive, but not by much. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a little more than other robots. This is helpful in difficult corners or along baseboards. The front arms can be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys or books.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've tried. It doesn't produce as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it has to use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It's easy to install and works well however this is something you'll need to be aware of if you're buying this robot vacuum solely for the purpose of mopping.

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 a great choice for homeowners looking to purchase an efficient, flexible, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device comes with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map your home and detect furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean efficiently and intelligently. This ensures a thorough and consistent clean, while also being relatively quick.

In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surface areas. This includes baseboards, corners and other hard to reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor near to the walls or other fixtures. In addition the mop pads can be washed and dried to avoid build-up and lessen odors.

Another noteworthy feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it must make, which will determine the speed at which the device can move through your home. You can also disable the side brush in order to avoid damaging carpets and rug.

The device is costly, but it comes with a lot of smart features. However, it's important to remember that it carries periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example, a brushroll needs to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad must be replaced every one to three months.

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

The Shark Matrix Plus

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

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a two-in-one 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 unit with microfiber pads that snap in and out of place. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping, but it does mean you don't need to worry about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.

Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature is its precise floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers that help to protect specific areas of your home from being swept with a mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair of pets. It was able to collect the majority of hair shed by our cats and even found its way into the nooks and crannies of our stairs while other robots struggled. It was relatively quiet and even had some nice jingles that indicated when it was beginning or finishing its work.

The biggest flaws were its lack of sophistication and the necessity to change between the modules to switch between mopping and vacuuming. The app can't keep multiple maps. This can be an issue if your house has several floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want an intelligent robot vacuums that mop that can do both vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it has some distinctive features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its massive 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 two bins: a 2.5-liter dustbin and an 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to manually start a cleaning task and then recall the robot or use the dock's automatic emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

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

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally become so entangled with an obstruction, such as an electrical cord dangling across a rug that it becomes stuck and stops working until you manually free it. While it was not common but it was a very frustrating experience when it happened, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert in its application.

Another possible issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during the cleaning process. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad but mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between use. This can lead to mildew and mold.

On the positive side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuum cleaners reviews, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its modern, sleek base and mopping pad apparatus. It's a huge departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for an industry dominated by boxy units.
