When I tested the S1, it was quick to identify our downstairs, which has laminate flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms, plus carpeting with a medium-pile and an area rug. It was able to drive close to walls and even over thresholds that are raised without issue. However it had some issues getting down the stairs in one step. The S1 also did a fantastic job of cleaning hard floors, with its mop driving smoothly on the flat side against the floor, and then lifting its own weight when it reaches carpet or carpet.

Before each mopping session, the docking station on the S1 automatically emptys its trash bin and fills up its water tank onboard with filtered, clean water ozonated. The dock adds a deep-cleaning robot mop and vacuum solution to the water. The S1 water tank can be able to accommodate 12 mopping sessions, however this will differ depending on the frequency you use the mop.

Like all 2-in-1 robots the S1 requires periodic maintenance to keep it working well. It is necessary to regularly wash out the tank that has been contaminated to keep it from becoming clogged. You will also need to clean your sensors and swivel wheel regularly to avoid them getting clogged up with dust or dirt. Overall the S1 is easy to maintain, particularly compared to other combinations that require more care.
