The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He conducts tests and reviews of cleaning equipment. His main focus is robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. Multitaskers are an excellent choice for those who are looking to remove mopping from their list of tasks. Some models have superior mapping capabilities and obstacles avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking to buy a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model to go for. It's smaller than other options on this list making it easier to navigate in tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best navigation and object avoidance that I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh which can last up to 170 minutes when mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery in mid-clean.
It's quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in a single sweep. The motor's 8,000pa power allows it to clean dirt, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help to tease out debris from corners.
The mopping performance is a little less impressive, but not by a lot. The rotating mop spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms protrude out slightly more than other robots that vacuum and mop, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and on baseboards. The same front arms can also be employed to clean larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and books.
Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mops I've ever used. It doesn't produce the same volume of sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only downside is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform its mopping function and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's simple to install and works well however, it's something you'll have to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums best vacuums that mops in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for an extremely efficient, flexible and adaptable cleaning machine.
The device has an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the house and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean effectively and methodically. 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 hard to reach places. They also have a stretchy side brush that extends to reach the floor close to walls and other fixtures. Additionally, the mop pads can be cleaned and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the smell.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction strength and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it will make, which will affect how quickly the device can move through your home. You can also turn off the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and rug.
It's expensive, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It is important to remember that the device will incur regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll should be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad needs to be replaced every three to six months.
This robotic vacuum cleaner is a top Amazon rating and comes with an array of physical automation features. It has a power button that doubles as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home button that will take it back to its base station after finishing the cleaning process. It also comes with a multi-functional dock which automatically empty the trash bin, fills up its water tank, and cleans and drys its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a professional with a lot of work or someone who wants to have a clean home without spending much time doing chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent 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 automatic vacuum cleaner and mop is a two-in-one mop and vacuum. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping but it does mean you don't need to worry about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.
The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map that it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate between rugs, furniture, and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option to set "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which help to keep specific areas of your home from being cleaned with mop.
We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up pet hair. It was able to capture the majority of hair our cats shed, and even was able to get into the nooks and crevices of our stairs, where other robots struggled. The noise levels of the robot vacuum cleaner were low and there were lovely jingles that inform you that it was starting and working towards its goal.
The app was too basic and you had to change the modules each time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't save multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a excellent choice for those who want a smart device that can mop and vacuum.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive in our review. However, it has some unique features which are worth a look. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its massive dock that serves as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a clean sink and the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically empties.
The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to start a cleaning task, recall the robot, or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two of the buttons to turn off a child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.
Like other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.
The X1 can be prone to get stuck if it gets entangled in a blockage like a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't work until you manually untangle it. This was a rare incident however it was frustrating since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert in its app.
The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during the cleaning process. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad however, the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a major change from the utilitarian all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing appearance in a market that is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
