The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuums that mop vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers can be a great option for those who want to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. They have impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to pick if you are 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 features a 220 degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to recharge its battery during the cleaning.

It's extremely quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single pass. Its 8,000pa motor is able to pick up dirt, pet hair, and droppings with ease. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it encounters rugs and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.

The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as good. The mop rotates quickly and utilizes 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful in narrow corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be used to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and fallen 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 create as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to set up and performs well. However, if you are buying this vacuum solely for mopping, you will need to pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want an efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the house and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean effectively and efficiently. This will result in an effective, consistent cleaning that is also quite quick.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach many different surface areas. This includes corners, baseboards and other hard to reach areas. They also have a flexible side brush that can be extended to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to eliminate odors and stop buildup.

Another noteworthy feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the intensity of its suction, and choose between a back-and-forth or slightly more random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also deactivate the side brush to protect your carpets from damage. rugs.

It's expensive, but has many smart features. It's important to remember that it carries regular costs in the form of mopping supplies 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 hours, and the mop pads should 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 comes with a power button which doubles as a 'Clean' button' as well as a 'Home button that allows it to go back 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 an ideal choice for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home neat without spending too much time doing chores. Its powerful performance, smart navigation, and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean home with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it is able to handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may seem a bit old-fashioned however, they mean you don't have to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine the path to follow when cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs, and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers that help to shield certain areas of your home from being cleaned with a mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing pet hair. It was able to collect an enormous amount of hair shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels of the robot were low, and there were some lovely jingles that inform you that it was in the process of finishing its work.

The app was too simple and you had to change the modules each time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app isn't able to store multiple maps, which could be a pain for homes with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want a smart robot cleaner that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive in our review. However, it has distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as a charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses the 2.5-liter dustbin and a 2.5 milliliter dust bin.

The base has a couple of buttons for control that let you manually start a cleaning task, recall the robot or run the dock's automatic hoover emptying procedure. Press two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents worried about their kids messing around 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 standard laser detection systems and is four times more accurate at recognizing objects.

The X1 can be prone to become 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. While it was not common but it was a very frustrating experience when it happened particularly since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert on its application.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. 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 use. This can lead to 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 conceptualized its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad. It's a major contrast to the utilitarian, black bases of competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing sight in a space that is dominated by bulky boxes and clunky models.
