Robot vacuums and mops are getting more powerful. They pass our cleaning tests, and can handle different floors. Look for models that allow you to select between several modes, utilize their charging dock to self-empty and clean the stairs.

Many of the Best robot vacuum cleaner UK models work with smartphones. Check for an application that lets you save maps, set schedules, and choose cleaning modes.

1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro

The gloss black and gunmetal Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combinations available. It makes use of lidar to navigate, create maps of floors and rooms (even multiple levels) and integrates with the free Eufy Clean app to let you set schedules and alter the S1's behaviour.

When I tested the S1, it was quick to locate our downstairs, which has Linoleum flooring in the kitchen/dining room and bathrooms, plus medium-pile carpeting and a large area rug. It was able to drive close to walls and even across raised thresholds without any problems. However it had some issues navigating down the stairs in one go. The S1 performed well in cleaning hard floors. Its mop drove smoothly on its flat side and raised itself when it was near carpets or rugs.

Before each mopping session, the docking station of the S1 automatically empties its dustbin and fills up its water tank with clean ozonated filtered water. The dock provides a deep-cleaning solution to the water. The S1 water tank is able to hold up to 12 mopping sessions, however this will differ based on how often you use the mop.

Like all 2-in-1 robots the S1 requires periodic maintenance to keep it working efficiently. You'll need to wash out the dirty tank to prevent it from becoming blocked. You will also need to clean your sensor and swivel wheel frequently to avoid them getting blocked by dust or dirt. Overall, the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.

2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete

Ecovacs all-in-one robotic vacuum and mop provides a powerful solution to your cleaning needs. The robot vacuum has 8700Pa of suction power and comes with many innovative features including voice control and smart path scheduling that cleans furniture and avoids obstacles. Its mopping capability is impressive, with rotating mops that actually lift and scrub the floor rather than simply dragging the pad across it. The mops are cleaned and dried in the base station when required.

This robot combination is simple to install and use, with a simple interface that guides you through the procedure. It includes a hand vacuum that recharges for those hard-to-reach areas that the robot isn't able to reach and two water tanks that are automatically emptied and filled as needed. It also has a range of useful settings to fine-tune your cleaning preferences.

The Deebot X2 Combo Complete does a good job at vacuuming, and has a powerful suction that easily picks up most of the debris, and even tiny dust particles that other robots struggle with. Its navigation abilities are also decent, but it can be stuck on small mats and rugs around my home (which you can reduce by creating virtual boundaries within the app). Its mopping capabilities are also excellent and include a pair of mops which lift and scrub the floor instead of drag the pad across it. The mops are cleaned with heated water and dried in the base station as needed. Mops can also be filled at the top of the station when needed.

3. Dreame X40 Ultra

Dreame launched the high-end X30 Ultra earlier this year and their new flagship model of robot mop and vacuum has more impressive features. It boasts fantastic cleaning results and hands-off maintenance, making it a clear contender on our top robot vacuum and mop list. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart recognition and a longer side brush guarantee a thorough, custom-designed clean.

The X40 Ultra vacuums well, it can remove both large and fine debris. It is equally effective on hard floors and carpets. It cleaned the dirtiest areas of our tests with ease while avoiding pet hairs and other mess. The sweeping power is enhanced by an additional side brush that automatically extends to reach hard-to-reach corners, as well as an extended mop pad that can be placed alongside baseboards.

Its navigation system is nimble that can navigate small spaces and negotiating stairways without stepping back. It can move from one room to another without having to reverse direction which is a great feature for homes with many rooms. Its obstacle avoidance technology isn't as advanced than its competitors However, it tends to leave a thick distance around obstacles, which can result in missed spots.

The app features a simple and intuitive interface that will be user-friendly for both new and experienced users. The app allows you to schedule and manage cleaning tasks. You can also alter suction power, mop setting, and look up 3-D and 2-D maps. You can control it through the app, Alexa or Google Assistant. You can even remotely control the X40 Ultra camera for real-time monitoring. You'll require a reliable Wi-Fi connection in order to operate it via the app and external controls.

4. Roomba Q5 Pro

A robot vacuum does an excellent job of removing debris and dirt however, it's not able to get every last piece of dust. This is why it's important to use your regular vacuum once every week, and especially to remove dust from corners, on shelves, and in the crevices of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop designed to accomplish exactly that. It's easy to connect to your home Wi-Fi network and works with Alexa and Apple Siri, making it an even more practical addition to your cleaning routine.

The Q5 is a stripped down version of the more expensive models in the S-series from the company, which includes the flagship Roborock S8 maxV ultra. It is equipped with the same LIDAR mapping sensor, but it saves cost by removing the mopping functionality and by using a lower-cost plastic body.

Despite losing the ability to mop floors, the Q5 still has some of the most impressive mopping and vacuum performance we've seen from a robotic cleaner and mop in this price range. It has a strong suction of 5500Pa, and an automatic empty system that means you don't have to empty the bin manually every time. It also comes with a smart application that lets you choose your floor's type and schedule cleanings. It also has an automatic refill of the water tank and wash system for hands-free operation.

Its mops also impress, with a 2700Pa power to tackle dirt and pet hair, on both carpets and hard flooring. The Q5 was among the few robots we tested did not show issues with high-pile carpets and rugs. However, it was able to not handle kitty litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise, since it does NOT contain AI-powered obstacle avoidance.

5. K10 Plus

K10 Plus is the quietest robot vacuum we've ever tested. It also has an innovative mapping system that allows it to reach tight spaces and corners that other vacuums can't. It also collects more dust in the larger bin, meaning that you don't need to empty it as often. Additionally, it has washable filters, which reduces the costs associated with using the device. The robot can recognize carpets, and boost suction when needed. The app also allows you to mark off areas you want to stay clear of, which is a nice feature.
