The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. Some have great mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than other options on this list making it easier to navigate into tight corners and underneath furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it one of my top navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery in mid-clean.
It's extremely quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single pass. Its suction motor of 8,000pa will quickly pick up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs and the double side brush helps to remove debris from corners.
The mopping performance, while still impressive, isn't as impressive. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is helpful in difficult corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can 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 most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've ever tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when vacuuming or mopping. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for
cleaning robot mop and vacuum mopping and is separate from the vacuum. It is simple to install and works well. However should you purchase this robot
automatic vacuum and mop to mop it is important to be aware of this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a variety of features.
The device is equipped 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. This information can be used to clean efficiently and efficiently. This ensures an efficient and consistent cleaning, while also being relatively fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other difficult to reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to the walls or other fixtures. Additionally, the mop pads can be washed and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the odors.
Another notable feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction intensity and choose a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also alter the number of passes it will make, which will affect how quickly the device can traverse your home. You can also turn off the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and carpets.
The device is costly, but has many smart features. It's crucial to keep in mind that it has regular costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For instance the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads should be changed every one to three month.
This robot vacuum that mops is rated highly on Amazon and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The vacuum also has an power button that doubles as the 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it back 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 dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a busy professional or someone who just wants an organized home that doesn't require a lot of time on chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent choice. It's a top-performing device, smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home tidy with little effort.
The Matrix Plus robot
automatic vacuum cleaner is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two modules that include a dry bin as well as a water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module that includes an elastomer pad. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated however, they mean you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the water tank.
The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature is its precise floorplan map, which it utilizes when 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' and virtual barriers, which help to shield certain areas of your house from being swept with a mop.
We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair of pets. It was able capture a lot of the hair that sheds from our cats. It even made it into the nooks and crannies of our stairs where other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were nice jingles to signal that it was beginning and working towards its goal.
Its biggest drawbacks were its simple app and the requirement to swap between the modules to switch between mopping and vacuuming. The app isn't able to hold multiple maps, which could be a problem when you live in a house that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who are looking for a smart device that can mop and vacuum.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive
robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it also has unique features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni's main draw is its huge dock which doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a clean sink as well as the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.
The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These let you manually start a cleaning task, recall the
robot vacuum cleaner uk, or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents who are concerned about their kids messing around with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to detect obstacles and furniture that are in its path. It will stay 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 could sometimes get so entangled with an obstacle--such as the power cord that is draped across a rug, that it gets stuck and ceases to function until you remove it manually. While it was not common however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni does not have an "stuck" status alert on its app.
The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. 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 cause mildew and mold.
On the positive side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad apparatus. It's a significant contrast to the basic black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for a market dominated by clunky boxy models.
