The
Best Robot Vacuum That MopsNoah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be a great option for those who are looking to get rid of mopping off their list of things to do. Some models have superior mapping capabilities and obstacles avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads themselves to ensure a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robot vacuum that also mops then this is the model to look for. 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 the best navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a
robotic hoovers 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 run longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.
It's extremely fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways with just one sweep. Its suction motor of 8,000pa is quick at picking up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the dual side brush helps to remove debris from corners.
The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The mop rotates quickly and uses 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into tight corners or on baseboards. The front arms can be used to sweep larger objects, such as broken toys and fallen books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't create more noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is easy to set up and performs well. However should you purchase this robot vacuum to mop you must pay attention to this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most
robot cleaner with mop vacuums that mops in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want an extremely efficient, flexible, and customizable cleaning machine.
The device is equipped with an impressive and powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the house and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean intelligently and efficiently. This results in an effective, consistent cleaning which is also relatively fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other hard to reach places. The side brush can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and dry to eliminate odors and stop buildup.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the strength of suction and select between a back-andforth or more random patterns. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will affect the speed at which the device can traverse your home. You can also choose to turn off the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
The device comes with a expensive price, but is packed with a wide array of advanced features. It's important to remember that it carries periodic costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and the mop pads should be replaced every one to three month.
The
robot vacuum with mop vacuum that mops is rated highly on Amazon and comes with a wide variety of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean button' as well as a 'Home button to send it home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and dry its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a busy professional or just want a cleaner home without spending a lot of time on chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean house with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it can handle both vacuuming and mopping. The
Robot Vacuums That Mop has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping system with a microfiber pad that snaps in and out of place. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean you don't have to fret about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.
Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs, and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers that help to shield specific areas of your home from being swept with a mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of collecting hair from pets. It was able to collect a large amount of hair that shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crevices of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was relatively silent and also had a few lovely jingles to let you know when it was starting or finishing its work.
The biggest flaws were its simple app and the requirement to switch between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app isn't able to contain multiple maps, which could be a problem for homes with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus
robot vacuum cleaner is a excellent choice for those who want a device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it does have certain unique features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its massive dock, which doubles as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a sink for cleaning as well as a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.
The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These let you manually start a cleaning job and then recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to toggle the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.
The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will stay clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more precise in recognizing objects.
Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni could occasionally get caught up in an obstacle--such as a power cord draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and stops working until you remove it manually. This was a rare occurrence however, it was a bit frustrating since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.
Another issue that could be a problem is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad however, mopping pads don't get washed 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 its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a significant departure from the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing view in a market that is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
