The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and cleaning robot mop and vacuum Lab.

He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers can be ideal for those who want to eliminate mopping from their to-do lists. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and they can even wash and refill their own mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to pick if you are looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than other models, making it easier to maneuver into tight corners or under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it one of my top navigation and object avoidance features I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to recharge its battery in mid-clean.

It's quick and does a great job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in one go. Its suction motor of 8,000pa makes short work of picking up dirt, crumbs and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs and the dual side brushes help to clean debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The rotating mop spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when getting into narrow corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be employed to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys or books.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've ever tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It's easy to install and works well however, this is something that you'll have to keep an eye on when you purchase 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 reviews vacuums which mops in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want an efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device comes with a powerful cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the home and detect furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean effectively and intelligently. This results in an efficient, consistent clean that's also fairly quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. They can reach corners, baseboards, and other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor near to the walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads are able to be dried and washed to prevent build-up and reduce odors.

Another feature worth mentioning is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction level and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also decide to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.

The device has a expensive price tag, but it is packed with a wide array of smart features. It's crucial to keep in mind that it has recurring costs, such as mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad must be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and offers a wide range of physical automation features. This includes a power button that can also function as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home' button that will send it back to its base station after finishing its cleaning task. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who just wants a cleaner home without spending much time doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a good option. Its powerful performance, smart navigation, and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean house with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop that is, it can do both vacuuming and mopping. The robot is divided into two parts, a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped out and in and a mopping unit that includes a microfiber pad. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refueling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map, which it uses to create a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which can help to shield specific areas of your home from being cleaned with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture a lot of the hair that sheds from our cats. It even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were pleasant jingles to let you know that it was in the process of working towards its goal.

The app was too simple and you had to switch the modules every time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app can't contain multiple maps, which can be a hassle if you have a home that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a excellent choice for those who want a device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. However, it has distinct features that make it worth looking into. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its enormous 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 a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.

The base comes with a few control buttons that allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch on the child lock which is a great option for parents concerned about children playing with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to spot obstacles and furniture in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more accurate at recognising objects.

The X1 can be prone to get stuck if it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. This was a rare occurrence however it was frustrating because the X1 doesn't have an "stuck status" alert in its app.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually switch between the two, which isn't an issue aside from the fact that the mopping pads aren't washed and dried between use which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright 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 modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad apparatus. It's a huge difference from the utilitarian black bases of competitors like Roborock or iRobot. And it's an impressive sight in a market dominated by clunky boxes.
