The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to get mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robot vacuum that also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than other options which makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It uses a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best navigation and object avoidance I've ever seen in a robot vacuum mop cleaner robot. 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 last longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.

It's extremely efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single sweep. The suction motor's 8,000pa will quickly pick up sand, dirt, and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it encounters rugs and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, is not as good. The rotating mop spins at a high velocity and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, easily scrubbing up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into difficult corners or on baseboards. The front arms can also be used to pick up larger objects like broken toys and books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tested. It is quieter and doesn't produce more noise when vacuuming or mopping. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for its mopping function and is separate from the vacuum. It's simple to set up and is effective however, this is something that 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 is different from other robot vacuum cleaner vacuums in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a range of features.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This allows it to map out your home and find furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This will ensure an efficient and consistent cleaning and is also fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards, and other hard-to-reach areas. They also have a stretchy side brush that can extend to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads are able to be washed and dried to prevent build-up and reduce odors.

Another noteworthy feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also select the number of passes which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.

This device is expensive however it has many useful features. However, it's important to remember that it carries recurring costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For instance, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hrs, and the mop pads should be replaced every one to three month.

This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. These include an energy button that can also function as a general 'Clean button as well as a Home' button that will send it back to its base station after completing its cleaning task. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the trash bin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dries its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home tidy without spending too much time doing chores. Its powerful performance, smart navigation and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean house with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is an all-in-one vacuum and mop. It is able to perform vacuuming as well as mopping. The robot is divided into two modules that include a dry bin as well as a water tank that can be 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 however it does mean that you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.

Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map which it uses to determine a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by a mop.

We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing pet hair. It was able to collect the majority of hair our cats shed and even was able to get into the nooks and crannies of our stairs while other robots that vacuum and mop struggled. It was silent and also had a few lovely jingles to indicated when it was starting or finishing its work.

The app was too basic and you had to change the modules each time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't store multiple maps, which could be a hassle when you live in a house that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops, visit the following webpage, in our test, but it comes with some distinct features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its massive dock, which doubles as the robot's charging base and the housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a clean sink and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.

The base has a few control buttons that allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Press two buttons to toggle the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.

Similar to other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path, and then 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 in recognizing objects.

Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally get caught up in an obstruction, such as the power cord that is draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you manually free it. While it was not common but it was a very frustrating experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert in its application.

Another potential downside is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad, except that the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.

On the bright side it's worth noting that 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 competitors like Roborock or iRobot. It's also a welcome sight for a market dominated by clunky boxy units.
