The Best
Robot Vacuum That MopsNoah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He conducts tests and reviews of cleaning equipment. His focus is on mopping and robot vacuum combinations. Multitaskers are a great option for those looking to take mopping off their to-do list. Some models have superior mapping capabilities and obstacles avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free 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 the other models on this list, making it easier to navigate into tight corners and underneath furniture. It features a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the most effective navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It packs a powerful 4600mAh battery that lasts 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 is very quick and does a great job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted areas extremely quickly, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, hallways, and living room in one go. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to pick up dirt, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes into contact with rugs, and the dual side brushes help to tease out dirt from corners.
The mopping performance is less impressive, but not by much. The rotating mop spins at a high rate and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, easily cleaning up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful when getting into tight corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be used to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and books.
Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mops I've ever tried. It doesn't produce the same volume of 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 needs to use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to install, and it works well. However when you purchase this
robot hoover and mop vacuum solely to mop you must pay attention to this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of
robot vacuum cleaner uk vacuums which mops in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it a great option for homeowners looking for an efficient, flexible and ad-hoc cleaning machine.
The device comes with a powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the house and find furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and efficiently. This will ensure an even and thorough clean and is also fast.
In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads are capable of reaching many different surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other hard to reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to extend to the floor, close to the walls or other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to remove odors and prevent buildup.
App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction level and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it must make, which will affect how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also disable the side brush in order to prevent damage to carpets and rug.
It's expensive, but has many smart features. It's important to remember that it carries recurring costs in the form of mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad needs to be replaced every one to three months.
This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and includes a broad range of physical automation features. This includes a 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 multifunctional dock that automatically empties the dustbin and refills its water tank for mopping and washes and dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal choice for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home tidy without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life make it simple to keep 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 mopping and vacuuming. The
robot vacuum cleaners best is divided into two components which include a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped out and in and a mopping module that is equipped with a microfiber pad. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming might seem a bit outdated but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.
Our test subjects discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its best feature was its precise floorplan map that it uses to draw the path to follow when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs, and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of picking up hair from pets. It was able capture some of the hair sheds from our cats. It even got into the nooks and crannies on our stairs, where other robots have struggled. It was relatively quiet and had some nice jingles that signalled when it was starting or finishing its work.
The app was too easy and you had to alter the modules every time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't keep multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has several floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it has some unique features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's main draw is its massive dock which serves as the robot's charging base and the housing for two water tanks, a clean sink as well as an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically eliminates.
The base has a few control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks, recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two of the buttons to switch on a child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about children playing with the vacuum.
Like other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni uses its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate 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 precise in finding objects.
Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni could occasionally get caught up in an obstruction, such as an electrical cord dangling across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you remove it manually. While it was not common but it was a very frustrating experience when it did happen and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't come with an "stuck" status alert in its application.
Another issue that could be a problem is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You'll need to manually switch between the two, which isn't a big deal apart from the fact that the mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between uses, which can lead to mildew or 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 big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an impressive sight in a market dominated by clunky boxy models.
