The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be ideal for those looking to get rid of mopping off their list of things to do. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and they can even wash and refill their mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should select if you're looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it some of my favorite navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in robot vacuums. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.
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 living room, and hallways in a single pass. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to remove dirt hair, pet hair, and droppings effortlessly. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help pull away debris from corners.
The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The mop rotates at a high velocity and pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, easily scrubbing up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is useful in difficult corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to sweep larger objects, such as broken toys and fallen books.
Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot mop vacuums and mops I've ever tried. It doesn't create as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It is easy to set up, and it works well. However should you purchase this robot vacuum solely to mop it is important to pay attention to this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners looking to purchase a highly effective, versatile and adaptable cleaning machine.
The device comes with an impressive and powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and methodically. This ensures a thorough and consistent clean and is also fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners or baseboards, as well as other difficult-to-access spots. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor close to the walls and other fixtures. In addition, the mop pads can be washed and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the smell.
App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction strength and select a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it should make, which will affect the speed at which the device can move around your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
The device comes with a expensive price, but is packed with a wide array of smart features. It's crucial to keep in mind that it has regular costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example brushrolls need to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads must be replaced every one to three months.
This robot vacuum that mops is rated highly on Amazon and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has a power button which doubles as a 'Clean button' and a Home button that allows it to go back home after cleaning. It also comes with a multifunctional dock that automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank and washes and drys its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a professional with a lot of work or just want to have a clean home without spending hours doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean home with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot cleaner vacuum and mop, that is, it can do both vacuuming and mopping. The robot has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. 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 bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.
Our test participants discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its best automatic vacuum cleaner feature is its precise floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs, and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.
We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture an enormous amount of hair shed by our cats and even found its way into the nooks and crannys of our stairs, where other robots struggled. The noise levels of the robot were low and there were nice jingles to inform you that it was in the process of getting its work done.
The app was too easy and you had to change the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't store multiple maps, which could be a problem when you live in a house with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want an intelligent robot that can perform both mopping and vacuuming.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it also has distinctive features that are worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that serves as an charging base for the robot vacuum with mop, a cleaning sink and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses the 2.5-liter dust bin as well as an 2.5 milliliter dust bin.
The base has a couple of buttons for control that let you manually start a cleaning task or recall the robot vacuum and mop, or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Press two of the buttons to toggle a child lock which is a great feature for parents who are worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to spot furniture and obstacles 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.
This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets entangled in an obstacle, such as the power cable that is draped over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. This was a rare occurrence however it was frustrating since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert in its app.
The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad, except that mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This could lead to mildew and 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 dreamed up its modern, sleek base and mopping pad. It's a significant contrast to the basic black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's an excellent choice for a market dominated by clunky boxy units.
