Robots That Vacuum and Mop

A good combination bot will offer excellent navigation and obstacles avoidance. Look for models that can automatically empty their bin and fill up their water tank, and wash their mopping pads using a dedicated dock.
1. Eufy S1 Pro
It's one of the easiest robots to set up that we've tested. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, Autonomous vacuum (davadava.hateblo.jp) and a quick-start guide will have you up and running with a clean and complete dust bag, a hard floor solution and water tank in no time at all.
The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can vacuum and mop well. Its mops spin at high speeds and exert 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, which makes short work of pet hair, dirt and dried sticky spills. The vacuum comes with four power modes, a variety of brushes and attachments and a user-friendly application that lets you choose the kind of cleaning you'd like to have for each room.
For instance, you could opt for the robot to clean up the kitchen and living rooms but be careful with the spare bedroom. The S1 Pro has excellent front collision sensors and smart navigation technology. It can detect small obstacles that other models cannot. Its only minor issue is that it tends to smash into walls and other objects at full speed. However, just a glance at the history of cleaning in the app will tell you exactly what it's doing, where it's going and the obstacles it's avoided.
The docking station features a handy LCD screen that indicates when maintenance is needed, such as emptying debris and cleaning the dirty water tank. It can also mix detergent automatically into the water tank, by using a 600ml bottle filled with Eufy's own solution.
Both the S1 Pro vacuum and mop have plenty of run-time, with the mop capable of running for 184 minutes in Quiet mode and the vacuum able to do 136 minutes in standard mode before needing to recharge or return to the base to refill.

The hinged lid can be opened to reveal a 350ml dustbin and 200ml water tank. The water tank automatically empties and the bin auto-refills.
The only issue I have discovered with this model was that the VibraRise mop pad mount isn't movable. You can replace the mopping cloth when needed, but it's difficult to take the mount off for manual washing. I've noticed that any carpet that the robot touches will be in contact with the rough Velcro like fastener system on the mounts, which could cause scratches.
The S8 Pro Ultra is equipped with a variety of clever features that include support for Google Home and Amazon Alexa. You can set up and manage these via the Roborock app that is also home to its maps and advanced mopping settings.
