The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances. His main focus is robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. Multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who are looking to remove mopping from their list of tasks. Some of them have excellent mapping capabilities and obstacles avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free cleaning.
The Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking to buy a robot Vacuums That mop vacuum that also mop, this is the model to go for. It's smaller than the other models on this list making it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar that, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of the best navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh which can last up to 170 minutes when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to the dock to replenish its battery halfway through an efficient.
It is very quick and does a great job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways with only one motion. Its 8,000pa suction motor will quickly pick up dirt, droppings and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the double side brush helps to remove debris from corners.
The mopping performance is less impressive, though not by a lot. The mop rotates at a high velocity and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms extend out slightly more than other robots, which is helpful for getting into tight corners and along baseboards. The front arms can be used to sweep up larger debris, like broken toys or books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot vacuum that mops mops and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't produce as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It is simple to install and performs well. However, if you are buying this automatic vacuum cleaner and mop solely 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 machine for cleaning with a wide range of features.
The device comes with an impressive and powerful cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and identify furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean methodically and intelligently. This leads to an effective, consistent cleaning that's also fairly quick.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other hard to reach places. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads are able to be cleaned and dried to prevent build-up and reduce odors.
App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction level and select either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
The device has a expensive price, but comes with a large selection of advanced features. However, it's important to keep in mind that it has regular costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For example, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad must be replaced every one to three months.
This robot vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and includes many physical automation features. The vacuum also has an power button that 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 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 a good choice for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home tidy without spending too much time on chores. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life allow you to keep a clean home with minimal 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 comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping but it does mean that you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.
Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture rug, furniture and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers that help to keep certain areas of your house from being swept with a mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of picking up hair from pets. It was able to collect a large amount of hair that our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels were low, and there were some lovely jingles that signal that it was in the process of getting its work done.
Its main drawbacks were its simplistic app and the requirement to switch between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't store multiple maps, which could be a hassle when you live in a house with a mix of floors. The Matrix Plus robot vacuum cleaner reviews is a great choice for those who are looking for 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, but it also has distinctive features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its enormous dock which doubles as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a clean sink as well as a 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.
The base also has a variety of control buttons that allow you to manually start cleaning and then recall the robot or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are worried about their children playing with the vacuum.
The Omni Omni, like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify obstacles and furniture that are in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in recognizing objects.
This can cause the X1 to get stuck if it gets caught in an obstacle like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. While it was not common, it was a frustrating experience when it happened, especially since the X1 Omni does not have an "stuck" status alert in its application.
Another potential downside is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during a cleaning session. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad, except that the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between use. This can cause mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. And it's an impressive sight in a market dominated by clunky boxy units.
