The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and Robot Vacuums That Mop (1Moli.Top) vacuum combos. These multitaskers are a great option for those who wish to get mopping off their to-do list. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and they can even wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you need to choose if you want an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than other options on this list which makes it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the Best robot vacuum uk navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery mid-clean.
It is very fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms quickly, and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways with only one sweep. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to remove dirt as well as pet hair and even droppings easily. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it encounters rugs and the dual side brushes help draw out dirt from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as good. The rotating mop spins fast and utilizes 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms stick out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful to get into tight corners and along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to pick up larger debris like books and broken toys.
Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It doesn't make the same volume of sound while vacuuming or mopping and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's simple to install and works well however this is something that you'll have to keep an eye on in case you're purchasing this vacuum solely for the purpose of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a range of features.
The device has a powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map your home and locate furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean efficiently and efficiently. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other difficult to reach areas. The side brush can be stretched out to extend to the floor, close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and dry to reduce odors and prevent buildup.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction level and select a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also select the number of passes, which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also choose to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.
The device comes with a high price tag but has a variety of innovative features. However, it's important to keep in mind that it has periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example, a brushroll needs to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hrs, and the mop pads must be replaced every one to three months.
This robot vacuum mop has an excellent Amazon rating and includes a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with a power button which doubles as a 'Clean' button' and a Home button that allows it to go home after cleaning. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the dustbin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. Its powerful performance, intelligent 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 vacuum and mop, which means it can handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot vacuum cleaner reviews comes with two modules: a dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping unit with a microfiber pad that snaps in and out of place. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may seem a bit old-fashioned but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.
Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan, which it uses to create the path to follow when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which help to protect certain areas of your home from being swept with a mop.
We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair of pets. It was able to collect a large amount of hair shed by our cats and even found its way into the nooks and crannys of our stairs which other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some pleasant jingles to signal that it was starting and finishing its work.
The biggest flaws were its lack of sophistication and the necessity to swap out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot save multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want an intelligent robot mop that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our test, but it comes with some distinct features that are worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock that doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink, and a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.
The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to manually start a cleaning job or recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents worried about their children messing around with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to spot obstacles and furniture that are in its path. It will avoid 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 accurate in recognising objects.
Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni will sometimes get so entangled with an obstacle--such as an electrical cord dangling across a rug, that it gets stuck and stops working until you manually free it. This was a rare occurrence however, it was a bit frustrating since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its app.
Another potential downside 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 too bad however, the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between use. This could 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 base and mopping pad. It's a major departure from the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing appearance in a market that is dominated by bulky, boxy units.
