robots that vacuum and mop - blog post from xintangtc.com -
Robots that mop and vacuum offer the convenience of removing dry debris (dust dirt, grit) and wet mess (spills or staining) in one session without having to swap out devices. They can also reduce space in comparison to two separate units, particularly in smaller living areas.
A good combination bot will be able to navigate well and have excellent obstacles avoidance. Look for models that have docks that let them automatically empty their bins, fill their water tanks, and wash the mopping pads.
1. Eufy S1 Pro
It has plenty to offer for its low cost and is among the easiest robots we've tested to install. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, and an easy-to-follow guide will have you running with a clean and complete dust bag, a hard floor solution and water tank in no time.
The S1 Pro is a powerful small machine that can is able to clean up a storm and vacuums well too. The mops spin at high speeds and exert 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, making short work of pet hair, dirt, and dried sticky spills. The vacuum cleaner has four power settings, a variety of attachments and brushes and an intuitive app that lets you choose the type of cleaning you want for each room.
For example, you can decide to let the robot do a deep clean in the kitchen and living rooms but take it easy in the spare bedroom. The S1 Pro has excellent front collision sensors and smart navigation technology. It is able to recognize small obstacles that other models are unable to. The only drawback is that it is known to smash into walls and objects at full speed. However looking at the cleaning history on the app will show you exactly what the robot has completed, where it's traveling, and what obstacles he has run into or avoided.
The docking station has a handy LCD screen that shows the need for maintenance, such as emptying debris and rinsing the water tank that is dirty. It is also able to mix detergent into the water tank by itself with a 600ml of eufy solution.
Both the S1 Pro mop and vacuum have a long run time. The mop can run for 184 mins in Quiet Mode and the vacuum can run for 136 minutes in normal mode, prior to needing recharging or returning to the base. You can also view the complete cleaning details within the app, which is clearly laid out and easy to understand although we would like to be able to differentiate between a vacuum and a vacuum/mop clean when looking at a cleaned area in the history of cleaning.
2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the latest version of the company's most popular robot mop and vacuum. In contrast to the model of last year, this one features an agitator that doubles in its mopping pad which significantly improves its carpet cleaning capabilities. The S8 Pro Ultra also has an improved suction capacity, allowing it to remove fine hairs and other debris that other robotic cleaners might overlook.
The Roborock model, just like the other two I tried it has infrared and a reactive 3D obstacle avoidance technology to help it get around obstacles like walls, furniture, and other obstacles. The S8 Pro Ultra goes one step further by incorporating two cameras that can recognize objects, determining whether they are walls or other surfaces. It can then change its direction automatically and clean around the objects without missing a step.
It's the most expensive robot I've ever tested and it comes with the most features. Its sleek and angular design is attractive and it only has three physical buttons: the power button, which also resumes cleaning; a mop-only button that doubles as a child lock and a home button that can bring the robot back to its dock. The hinged lid opens to reveal a 350ml trash bin and 200ml tank of water. The water tank automatically empties and the bin auto-refills.
The only downside I found in this model was the VibraRise mop pads mount is not removable. It is possible to replace the mopping cloth when needed, but it's difficult to take the mount off for manual washing. I've observed that any soft carpet that the robot touches will come into contact with the Velcro-like fastener system on the mount, which could cause scratches.
The S8 Pro Ultra has a variety of smart features that include support for Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Siri. You can set up and manage these via the Roborock app which is also home to its maps and advanced mopping settings. The app allows you to schedule cleanings, monitor the battery life and maintain your components. But you'll need to jump through a few hoops to allow voice control with this model which is unfortunate considering the performance of this model.

It also lets the robot to get under furniture with a low profile, making it a great option for smaller apartments and condos with tight spaces. The side brush automatically lowers itself when it spots wet spots, which is a nice feature that helps the X40 to avoid causing damage to floors by repeated back-andforth movements.
Contrary to other robots which solely focus on one task, the X40 can do both vacuuming and mopping simultaneously or individually. It can be programmed to only mop the hard floors and skip carpeted areas, or vice versa.

The docking station will automatically empty the dustbin and wash mop pads before refilling them with fresh cleaning solution and water. It will also tell you whether the mop pad is at its maximum capacity and notify you of the situation before it overflows.
4. L20 Ultra
The L20 Ultra is a high-end robot that's one of the most expensive available however, it comes with a lot of extra features that make it stand out. Smart DuoScrub, a new feature of its mop, utilizes two mop heads that are high-speed to scrub floors more thoroughly. It also has a maximum suction force of 7,000Pa. This is significantly higher than the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra or Ecovacs Deebot T20 Omni, and it can automatic vacuum and mop robot up pet hair and small dirt particles in addition to removing spills and wet spots.
The mops are cleaned and dried at the base station every time they are used. This is an excellent feature because it prevents the growth of mould and unpleasant odours in the storage area, and it also makes mop systems more efficient. This is an option we haven't seen in other robot vacuum and mop models. It could be a great method to keep your home clean longer.
There's a wealth of settings available which include the ability to schedule cleaning times and adjust a number of different preferences. They can be set through the app or there are buttons that can be found on the device itself. The app is easy to use and offers a variety of options for customizing your cleaning routine. It also has many functions that are not available on other robots, such as the Clean Genius Mode, which automatically increases suction whenever it detects dust particles.
The L20 Ultra is also one of the most fashionable robots we've seen on the market, sporting metallic and white colors that looks classy and sophisticated. It's a bit heavier than the other two-in-one robots in this list - at 4kg - but it's not obscenely heavy, and it feels sturdy and well-built. The mopping design is also excellent and the double-rotating mop works well on hard floors as well as in corners. The MopExtend feature lets them extend up to 2mm below the baseboards.
