The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. Some have great mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance. Some even 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 go for. It's smaller than other models 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 hoover navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic cleaner and mop vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery during the cleaning.
It's very efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast, and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways with only one pass. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to pick up dirt hair, pet hair, and poop easily. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.
The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as good. The mop rotates quickly and uses 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful in difficult corners or along baseboards. Those same front arms can be used to clean larger objects, such as broken toys and fallen books.
Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't make as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a proprietary cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is simple to install, and it works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum to mop it is important to pay attention to this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a variety of features.
The device comes with a powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the home and identify furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean effectively and efficiently. This ensures an efficient and consistent cleaning, while also being relatively quick.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. These include corners or baseboards, as well as other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched to extend to the floor, close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and dry to remove odors and prevent buildup.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the intensity of its suction, and choose between a back-andforth or more random patterns. You can also choose the number of passes which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also decide to turn off the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.
The device has a high price tag but comes with a large selection of innovative features. It is important to note, however, that the device is subject to regular expenses, such as mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For example the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads should be changed every one to three month.
This robot vacuum mop is a top Amazon rating and includes many physical automation features. The vacuum also has a power button which doubles as the 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it back home after cleaning. It also has a multifunctional dock that automatically empties the trash bin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dries its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a professional with a lot of work or someone who wants a cleaner home without spending a lot of time on chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a good choice. Its powerful performance, smart navigation and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean home with little effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop which means it is able to handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot is divided into two components which include a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module that is equipped with an elastomer pad. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming but it does mean you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.
The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature is its precise floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily between rugs, furniture, and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers that help to shield specific areas of your home from being swept with mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of collecting hair of pets. It was able to collect a lot of the hair that shed by our cats, and even got into the nooks and crannies on our stairs, where other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some pleasant jingles to signal that it was beginning and working towards its goal.
The app was too basic and you had to change the modules each time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app can't contain multiple maps, which can be a pain when you live in a house with multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot vacuums that mop (visit) is a great choice for those who want a smart device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robotic vacuum that is able to mop in our review, however it comes with some unique features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that serves as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses the 2.5-liter dust bin as well as an 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.
The base has several control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks, recall the robot or run the dock's automatic emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch on the child lock, which is a nice touch for parents worried about kids tinkering with the autonomous vacuum.
The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer 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 finding objects.
This can cause the X1 to become stuck when it gets entangled in a blockage, such as a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you manually untangle it. This was a rare occurrence, but frustrating nonetheless, because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert on its application.
The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You will need to manually switch between the two, which isn't a big deal apart from the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between use, which can lead to mildew or mold.
On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its sleek, modern-looking 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 a welcome sight in a space that is dominated by clunky boxes and clunky models.
