robots that Vacuum and mop (https://nativ.media:443/wiki/index.php?kevincrack252)

Robots that vacuum and mop offer the convenience of cleaning dry debris (dust dirt) and wet messes (spills and staining) in one go without the need to change devices. They can also reduce space compared to two separate units, particularly in smaller living spaces.

A good combination bot should be able to navigate well and have excellent obstacle avoidance. Find models that automatically empty their bins and fill up their water tank and machine-wash their mopping pads from a dedicated dock.

1. Eufy S1 Pro

It's one of the easiest robots to install that we've tested. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, and the quick-start guide will get you up and running with a clean, complete dust bag, a hard floor solution and water tank in a matter of minutes.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. The mops spin at fast speeds and can apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, which makes short work of pet hair, dirt, and dried sticky spills. The automatic vacuum cleaner cleaner has four power settings, as well as a selection of attachments and brushes and an intuitive app that lets you choose the type of cleaning you want for each room.

For instance, you could choose to have the robot do a deep clean in the kitchen and living rooms but take it easy in the spare bedroom. The S1 Pro's front colision sensors and its smart navigation technology are also excellent, with the robot being capable of detecting tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. Its only minor issue is that it can hit objects and walls at full speed - but a quick glance at the cleaning history within the app will show you exactly what it's doing, where it's going and what obstacles it's run into or avoided.

The docking station has a handy LCD screen that shows the need for maintenance, such as emptying debris and cleaning the water tank that is dirty. It's also able to mix detergent automatically into the water tank, by using a 600ml bottle filled with Eufy's own 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 automatic vacuum cleaner and mop can last 136 mins in standard mode, before needing recharging or returning to the base. The app is easy to use and intuitive that lets you see every aspect of the cleaning.

2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra

The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the most recent version of Roborock's most popular robot vacuum and mop, is the most up-to-date version. It's not like the model from last year it comes with an agitator that doubles in its mopping pad, which significantly enhances its carpet cleaning capabilities. The S8 Pro Ultra also has an improved suction capacity, allowing it to remove small hairs and other particles that other robotic cleaners may be unable to pick up.

The Roborock model, like the other two I tested, has infrared and reactive 3D obstacle avoidance technology to help it overcome obstacles like walls, furniture and other obstacles. However, the S8 Pro Ultra takes things an extra step by having a dual camera that can detect objects and decide whether they're a wall or another type of surface. It can then change its path automatically and clean around them, without missing a step.

This is the most expensive of the three models I've reviewed but it's also the most packed with features. Its sleek, angular design is eye catching and comes with three buttons that are physically accessible. The power button, which also resumes the cleaning mop button, which doubles as a child-lock and a home-button that can bring the robot to its dock. Lifting the hinged lid reveals 350ml of dust bin and 200ml water tank. The water tank self-empties and the bin auto-filling.

The only negative I found with this model is that the VibraRise mop pad mount isn't removable. While you can swap out the mopping cloth (if needed) however, it's a hassle to take off the mount to wash manually. I've found that any plush carpet that the robot cleaner touches will come into contact with the rough Velcro-like fastener system on the mount, and that can cause scratches.

The S8 Pro Ultra has a variety of smart features, including support for Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Siri. The Roborock app is where you can manage and set up these features. It also includes maps and advanced mopping options. The app also lets you to schedule cleanings and monitor battery life and component maintenance. You'll need to go through some hoops to activate voice control on this model. This is a shame considering how efficient it is otherwise.

3. Dreame X40

The Dreame X40 is an industry-leading robot hoover and mop vacuum and mop with outstanding suction power, advanced mowing capabilities, and a variety of innovative features. Its smart design allows you to customize and efficiently clean while reducing time.

The X40 is the first robotic vacuum cleaner to deliver 12,000 Pascals of cleaning power, which easily makes it one of the best alternatives available. This powerful vacuum can clear up pet hair as well as crumbs and other dry mess. It also has a high-quality mop that leaves hard floors sparkling clean, even with a wet pad. Additionally the X40 is quiet in operation, only producing occasional bursts of sound when switching between modes or completing self-maintenance tasks.

Another noteworthy feature is the X40's extendable and liftable side brush, which allows it to get into difficult-to-access corners and clean furniture, such as tables and chairs' legs. It also lets the robot to access furniture with a low profile which makes it a great option for smaller apartments and condominiums with small spaces. The side brush also automatically tilts down when detecting wet spots. This is a nice addition that helps the X40 keep floors safe from damage caused by the frequent back-and-forth movement.

Unlike other robots, which are restricted to a single task, the X40 can mop and vacuum simultaneously. It can be programmed to only mop the hard floors, and skip carpeted areas or vice versa. It can be controlled through the Dreame app or by using Alexa, Siri, and Google Home to ensure a smooth voice-controlled operation.

The app is easy to use and intuitive, and the X40 comes with a variety of smart features that are easy to configure. Users can program the X40 to clean at specific times, alter suction power and mode, look at floor plans and maps and manage mopping settings. The X40 can also track its progress and inform you when it's finished.

The X40 is easy to maintain and comes with numerous features that make it an excellent option for busy families. The docking station will automatically empty the dustbin and wash the mop pads, then refill them with fresh cleaning solution and water. It will also tell you whether the mop pad has reached its capacity to the max and alert you to the situation before it overflows.

4. L20 Ultra

The L20 Ultra robot is one of the most expensive models on the market. However, it has a number of features that make it stand out. Smart DuoScrub is a brand new feature on its mop, utilizes two mop heads with high-speed motors to scrub floors more thoroughly. It also has a suction force of 7,000Pa. This is much higher than that of the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra or Ecovacs Deebot T20 Omni and can clean pet hair and small dirt particles in addition to removing spills and wet spots.

The mop is cleaned and dried at the base station every time they are used. This is a great feature because it prevents the growth of mould and unpleasant odours in storage, and it also makes the mop system 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 are many choices, including the possibility to schedule cleanings and change preferences. The app allows you to set these preferences or utilize the buttons on the device itself. The app is easy to use and provides a number 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 when it detects any dust particles.

The L20 Ultra has a stylish design that has a white-and-metallic look that looks elegant and sophisticated. It's a little heavier than some of the other two-in-one robots on this list, at 4kg however it's not overly heavy, and it feels robust and well built. The mopping design is also excellent and the double-rotating mops work well on hard floors as well as in corners. They can even reach down to 2mm of baseboards due to the MopExtend feature which is a nice feature.
