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

The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.

He reviews and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum with mop vacuum combos. These multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. Some models have superior navigation and obstacles avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to select if you're looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It is smaller than other options, making it easier to maneuver in tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers one of my top navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It can even return to its dock to recharge its battery mid-clean.

It's extremely fast and does an excellent job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in one go. Its suction motor of 8,000pa is quick at picking up sand, dirt and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The rotating mop spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've also noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which is useful for getting into tight corners and along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger pieces of debris, such as books and toys that have been damaged.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest best robot hoover vacuums and mops I've ever used. It is quieter and doesn't produce as much noise when vacuuming or mopping. The only drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It is simple to install and performs well. However when you purchase this robot vacuum for mopping purposes, 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 is equipped with a broad array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want an efficient, flexible, and customizable cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out your home and also find furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This will result in an efficient, consistent clean that is also quite quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach areas. They also come with a stretchy side brush that extends to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads can be washed and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce odors.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the strength of suction, and choose between a back-andforth, or a more random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it must make, which will affect how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also turn off the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and carpets.

This device is expensive but has many smart features. However, it's important to keep in mind that it has recurring costs, such as mopping equipment and maintenance. For example brushrolls need to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads must be changed every three month.

This robotic vacuum cleaner has a high rating on Amazon and offers a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also has 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 which automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank and washes and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or someone who just wants a cleaner home without spending hours doing chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. Its powerful performance, smart navigation and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean house with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a two-in-one mop and vacuum. It is capable of vacuuming as well as mopping. It has 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 a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming however it does mean that you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its best automatic vacuum cleaner feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers that help to keep certain areas of your home from being scrubbed with a mop.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up pet hair. It was able capture a lot of the hair our cats shed, and even got into some of the corners and crevices of our stairs where other robots have struggled. It was fairly quiet and even had some lovely jingles to indicated when it was about to start or finishing its work.

The app was too basic and you had to change the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't save multiple maps. This could be an issue if your house has several floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those 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 comes with some unique features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its huge dock which serves as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a sink for cleaning and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.

The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to manually start a cleaning task, recall the robot, or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock, which is a nice option for parents concerned about children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to spot 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.

This can cause the X1 to become stuck when it gets caught in a hazard like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you manually untangle it. While it was not common, it was a frustrating experience when it did happen, especially since the X1 Omni doesn't come with a "stuck" status alert in its app.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You will need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't a big deal apart from the fact that the mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between use and can cause mildew or mold.

On the bright side it's worth noting that the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad. It's a major contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing sight in a space that is dominated by bulky, boxy units.
