The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He tests and evaluates cleaning robot mop and vacuum appliances, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance, and some wash and refill their own mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model to go for. It's smaller than other models and makes it easier to maneuver into tight spaces or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the best robot vacuum and mop navigation and object avoidance I've ever seen in a robot vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last for up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.

It's fast and does a fantastic job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single pass. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to remove dirt as well as pet hair and even droppings effortlessly. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs, and the dual side brush helps to remove debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, isn't as effective. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high rate and pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful in narrow corners or along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to collect larger debris like books and broken toys.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've ever used. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it has to utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and performs well however this is something that you'll need to be aware of in case you're purchasing this vacuum solely for the purpose of it mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a wide range of features.

The device is equipped with an impressive and powerful cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean intelligently and efficiently. This leads to a thorough, consistent clean that is also quite quick.

In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can reach a wide range of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach areas. They also come with a stretchy side brush that can be extended to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and can be dried to remove odors and prevent buildup.

App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the amount of suction and choose between a back-andforth or more randomized pattern. You can also select the number of passes which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.

This device has a fairly high price tag but has a variety of smart features. However, it's important to keep in mind that it has recurring expenses in the form of mopping supplies and maintenance. For example the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hrs, and the mop pads should be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum mop is a top Amazon rating and comes with many physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an power button that doubles as a 'Clean button' and a Home button that allows it to go home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the trash bin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who wants a cleaner home without spending a lot of time on chores, the Shark Matrix Plus is a good option. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation, and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean house with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is an all-in-one mop and vacuum. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir, and a separate mopping system with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping but it does mean that you don't need to worry about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.

Our test subjects discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its Best robot vacuum uk feature is its precise floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option of setting "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which can help to protect certain areas of your home from being scrubbed with a mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of collecting pet hair. It was able to collect the majority of hair that our cats shed and even found its way into the nooks and crannies of our stairs while other robots struggled. It was relatively quiet and had some lovely jingles to let you know when it was about to start or Robot vacuums best completing its task.

The app was too simple and you had to switch the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't save multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it has some unique features that are worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its massive dock that serves as a charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses a 2.5-liter dustbin and the 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning task or recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Press two of the buttons to toggle the child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system will map your home 10 times faster than laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in finding objects.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets entangled in an obstacle like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you remove it manually. This was a rare incident, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

Another potential downside is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll need to manually swap between the two, which isn't an issue except for the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between use which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the positive side it's worth noting that the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuum that vacuums and mops thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad apparatus. It's a big contrast to the utilitarian, black bases of competitors like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing appearance in a market which is dominated by clunky boxy models.
