The best robot vacuum and mop Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.

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

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model to choose if you want an automatic vacuum mop cleaner robot cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than other models on this list, making it easier to maneuver in tight corners and under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of my favorite navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 mins when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It can even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through cleaning.

It's quick and does a great job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways in just one pass. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to pick up dirt, pet hair, and poop with ease. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it encounters rugs and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.

The mopping performance is less impressive, but not by much. The mop rotates quickly and utilizes 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful for getting into tight corners and along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger debris like books and broken toys.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't make as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for its mopping function and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is simple to install and performs well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely to mop, you will need to be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a variety of features.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and find furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean effectively and methodically. This ensures an even and thorough clean and is also fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. They can reach corners or baseboards, as well as other hard-to-reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor close to the walls or other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and can be dried to remove odors and prevent buildup.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo allows you to alter the amount of suction and select between a back-andforth, or a more 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 deactivate the side brush in order to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.

The device is costly, however it has many useful features. It's crucial to note that it incurs periodic costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For example 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 must be replaced every three to six months.

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

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a professional with a lot of work or just want an organized home that doesn't require a lot of time on chores, the Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent choice. It has powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home tidy with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it is able to handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot is divided into two components, a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module that includes microfiber pads. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming but it does mean that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our test subjects discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its best feature was its accurate floorplan map that it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs, and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which help to protect certain areas of your home from being swept with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of collecting hair from pets. It was able capture a large amount of hair that shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crannys of our stairs while other robots struggled. The noise levels were low and there were lovely jingles that inform you that it was starting and getting its work done.

Its main drawbacks were its simple app and the need to change out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app is not able to store multiple maps. This can be a problem if your home has several floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want a smart robot vacuums that mop that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it has certain unique features that make it worth looking into. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock that serves as the robot's charging base and housing for two water tanks, a clean sink, and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.

The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to start a cleaning job or recall the robot vacuum and mop or use the dock's automatic emptying process. Press two of the buttons to turn off the child lock, which is a nice feature for parents who are worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path and avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in finding objects.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally get caught up in obstacles, like a power cord draped across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you free it. Although this is not a common occurrence however, it was a gruelling experience when it happened and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't come with a "stuck" status alert in its app.

The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad except for the fact that mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between use which could lead to mildew or mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a significant change from the utilitarian all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing appearance in a market that is dominated by clunky boxy models.
