The Best robot vacuum that mops (published on Fkwiki)

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 robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers are a great option for those who wish to cross mopping off the to-do list. Some models have superior navigation and obstacles avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mops then this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than other models on this list, making it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar which, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers some of the best automatic vacuum and mop navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in robot vacuums. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It will even return to its dock to recharge its battery mid-clean.

It's very efficient and does a great 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 one go. The suction motor's 8,000pa will quickly pick up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects rugs and the dual side brushes help to clean debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The rotating mop spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a bit more than other robots. This is helpful when you're trying to get into difficult corners or along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to pick up larger debris like broken toys and books.

The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It is quieter and doesn't create more noise when vacuuming or mopping. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it needs to use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It is simple to install and performs well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum for mopping, you will need to be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want an extremely efficient, flexible, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device comes with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map your home and identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean effectively and efficiently. This will ensure an even and thorough clean and is also quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach spots. They also have a stretchy side brush that can extend to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and dry to remove odors and prevent buildup.

Another noteworthy feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it must make, which will affect how quickly the device can move through your home. You can also disable the side brush in order to protect your carpets from damage. rug.

This device is expensive but it comes with a lot of smart features. It's important to note that it incurs periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and maintenance. For example the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads must be changed every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops is rated highly on Amazon and offers a wide variety of physical automation features. The vacuum also has a power button which doubles as a 'Clean' button' and a 'Home button that allows it to go home after cleaning. It also comes with a multifunctional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank, and cleans and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good choice for busy professionals or anyone who needs to keep their home neat without spending too much time doing chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean home with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it can handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two parts, a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping module which is equipped with a microfiber pad. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping, but it does mean you don't have to fret about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our test participants found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map, which it uses to create an outline for cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which help to shield certain areas of your home from being scrubbed with a mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up pet hair. It was able to collect the majority of hair that shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crannies of our stairs while other robots struggled. It was quiet and had some pleasant jingles that indicated when it was starting or finished its work.

The app was too simple and you had to switch the modules each time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app is not able to keep multiple maps. This could be an issue if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want a smart robot that can do both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our test, but it has some unique features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its enormous dock that doubles as a charging base as well as housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink, and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.

The base comes with several control buttons, which allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are worried about their kids messing around with the automatic vacuum cleaner.

Similar to other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system will map your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more precise in recognising objects.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets entangled in a blockage, such as a power cable draped over a rug. It won't work until you manually untangle it. While this was rare however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't come with a "stuck" status alert on its app.

The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming mode during cleaning. You will need to manually swap between the two modes, which isn't an issue aside from the fact that mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between uses which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright 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 came up with its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad. It's a significant contrast to the basic black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for an industry dominated by boxy models.
