The
Best Robot Vacuum That MopsNoah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers are an excellent option for those looking to cross mopping off the to-do list. Some of them have excellent mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free cleaning.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should pick if you are looking for a
robot cleaner with mop vacuum cleaner that also mop. It is smaller than other options and makes it easier to maneuver into tight spaces or under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of my favorite navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in robot vacuums. It has a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 mins when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.
It's extremely fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted areas extremely quickly, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in a single sweep. Its 8,000pa suction motor will quickly pick up dirt, droppings and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs and the double side brush assists in removing debris from corners.
The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by a lot. The rotating mop spins at a high velocity and pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scrubbing up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into difficult corners or on baseboards. The front arms can also be used to sweep larger objects, such as broken toys or books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest
robot vacuum cleaners best mop and vacuums I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when vacuuming or mopping. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's easy to install and performs well however, it's something you'll need to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum solely for the purpose of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile and ad-hoc cleaning machine.
The device is equipped with a powerful cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This allows it to map out the home and also identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean effectively and efficiently. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes baseboards,
Robot hoover corners and other hard to reach places. They also have a stretchy side brush that can extend to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads can be cleaned and dried to prevent build-up and reduce the odors.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the intensity of its suction and choose between a back-andforth or 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.
The device is costly, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It's important to note that it incurs regular costs, such as mopping supplies and maintenance. For example 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 the mop pads must be changed every three month.
This robotic vacuum cleaner is a top Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. These include the power button that serves as a general "Clean' button and a 'Home' button that will send it back to its base station once it has completed the cleaning process. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good choice for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time doing chores. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life make it simple to keep a clean home with little effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two components which include a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped out and in and a mopping unit that includes an elastomer pad. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming but it does mean you don't have to fret about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.
Our test participants discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate map of your floorplan that it uses to determine the path to follow when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture rug, furniture, and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option of setting "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which can help to shield certain areas of your home from being swept with mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up hair from pets. It was able capture a large amount of hair that our cats shed, and even was able to get into the nooks and crevices of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was quiet and had some lovely jingles to let you know when it was about to start or completing its task.
The biggest flaws were its simple app and the necessity to switch out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't save multiple maps. This could be an issue if your house has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can mop and vacuum.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robotic vacuum that is able to mop in our review, however it also has distinct features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its huge dock which doubles as a charging base and housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a clean sink, and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.
The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to start a cleaning task and then recall the
robot vacuum that vacuums and mops or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two of the buttons to switch on the child lock that is a great feature for parents who are worried about children playing with the vacuum.
The X1 Omni like other
robotic hoovers vacuums, utilizes its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system will map your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in recognising objects.
The X1 can be prone to get stuck if it gets caught in a hazard like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert on its app.
Another possible issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during cleaning. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad however, mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed the sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a major contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing view in a market that is dominated by bulky boxy models.
