You'll Never Guess This Best Robot Vacuum That Mops's Benefits

The best robotic mop and vacuum Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers can be a great option for those who are looking to get rid of mopping off their list of tasks. They have impressive mapping and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than the other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It uses a 220 degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery which lasts up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery in mid-clean.

It's efficient and does an outstanding job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single pass. Its 8,000pa suction motor is quick at picking up dirt, crumbs, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs, and the dual side brushes help to clean debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, isn't as effective. The rotating mop spins at a high speed and is pushed down with 2.2lbs of force, easily cleaning up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is useful when getting into difficult corners or along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger debris such as books and toys that have been damaged.

Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the most quiet robot vacuums and mops I've ever tried. 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 utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It is easy to install and works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum solely for mopping purposes, you will need to be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums that mop in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a wide range of features.

The device is equipped with a powerful cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This enables it to map out your home and detect furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean efficiently and effectively. This ensures an efficient and consistent cleaning, while also being relatively fast.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other hard to reach areas. The side brush can be stretched to reach the floor near to the walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are washable and can be dried to remove odors and prevent buildup.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also select the number of passes, which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also deactivate the side brush in order to avoid damaging carpets and rug.

The device comes with a high price tag but is packed with a wide array of smart features. It is important to note, however, that the device incurs recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll should be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad needs to be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops has an excellent rating on Amazon and comes with a wide array of physical automation features. This includes an energy button that serves as a general "Clean button as well as a Home button that sends it back to its base station after finishing its cleaning session. It also comes with a multifunctional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean home with little 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 is divided into two components, a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping module that includes a microfiber pad. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming, but it does mean you don't need to worry about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.

Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which help to keep certain areas of your home from being scrubbed with a mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair from pets. It was able to collect a lot of the hair sheds from our cats. It even got into some of the nooks and crannies on our stairs where other robots struggled. It was quiet and even had some nice jingles that signalled when it was about to start or finished its work.

Its biggest drawbacks were its lack of sophistication and the need to change between the modules to switch between mopping and vacuuming. The app doesn't have the capacity to hold multiple maps, which can be a problem if you have a home that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good choice for people who want a smart robot that is capable of vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum mop cleaner robot that mops in our review, however it has some distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its massive dock which serves as the robot's charging base and the housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a clean sink and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically empties.

The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning task or recall the robot vacuum with mop or run the dock's auto vacuum and mop-emptying process. Hold down two of the buttons to turn off a child lock that is a great option for parents concerned about children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the X1 Omni uses its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni could sometimes get so entangled with obstacles, like an electrical cord dangling across a rug--that it becomes stuck and stops working until you remove it manually. Although this is not a common occurrence, it was a frustrating experience when it happened particularly since the X1 Omni doesn't have an "stuck" status alert on its app.

Another possible issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually swap between the two, which isn't a big deal except for the fact that the mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between use, which can lead to mildew or mold.

The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a big departure from the utilitarian all-black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for an industry dominated by boxes.
