You'll Never Be Able To Figure Out This Best Robot Vacuum That Mops's Benefits

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. His focus is on robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. Multitaskers can be ideal for those who are looking to remove mopping from their to-do lists. They are equipped with impressive mapping and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some even wash and refill their own mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to select if you're looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list making it easier to navigate through tight corners and under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it some of the best robot vacuum cleaner and mop navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last for up to 170 minutes if cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through an efficient.

It's fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single pass. Its 8,000pa motor is able to remove dirt, pet hair, and droppings easily. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help pull out dirt from corners.

The mopping performance is a little less impressive, but not by much. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms extend out slightly more than other robots, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can also be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and fallen books.

Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping and is separate from the vacuum. It's easy to install and works well however this is something you'll have to keep an eye on in case you're purchasing this vacuum solely for the purpose of it mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuum cleaner vacuums that mop in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a range of features.

The device is equipped with a powerful cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This allows it to map out your home and also identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This ensures a thorough and consistent clean, while also being relatively quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach places. They also have a flexible side brush that extends to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. In addition, the mop pads can be washed and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce odors.

Another feature worth mentioning is the customization options that are available through apps. The Q Revo allows you to alter the intensity of its suction and select between a back-andforth or more random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it will make, which will determine the speed at which the device can traverse your home. You can even choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.

This device has a fairly expensive price tag, but it has a variety of advanced features. It is important to keep in mind that the device will incur recurring expenses in the form mopping equipment and regular maintenance. For example the brushroll should be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad should be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops has a high rating on Amazon and comes with a wide range 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 home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, 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 choice for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home tidy without spending too much time on chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean house with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot cleaner vacuum is an all-in-one vacuum and mop. It can do both vacuuming as well as mopping. It has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping system with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming may seem a bit old-fashioned but they're a good thing because you don't have to think about changing bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its best automatic vacuum feature was its precise floorplan, which it uses to determine a route when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs, and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture some of the hair that sheds from our cats. It even got into the corners and crevices of our stairs, where other robots had struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some lovely jingles that inform you that it was starting and getting its work done.

Its main drawbacks were its simple app and the necessity to change out the modules whenever switching between mopping and vacuuming. The app is not able to keep multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who want a device that can vacuum and mop.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robotic vacuum that is able to mop in our review, but it also has distinctive features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's main draw is its huge dock that doubles as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink as well as the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.

The base also has a variety of buttons to control the system. These allow you to start a cleaning job or recall the robot or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Press two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of 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 sometimes get so entangled with an obstruction, such as the power cord that is draped across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you free it. This was a rare incident however it was frustrating since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually swap between the two, which isn't an issue apart from the fact that mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between use, which can lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot hoover and mop thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its modern, sleek base and mopping pad. It's a significant departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for a market dominated by clunky boxy units.
