The Best 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, with a focus on robot vacuums that mop (
120.92.38.244) vacuums and mopping combos. These multitaskers can be a great option for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. Some of them have excellent mapping capabilities and obstacles avoidance. Some wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model to pick if you are looking for a
robot cleaner with mop vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other models, making it easier to maneuver into tight corners or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar which, when paired with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it the
best robot cleaner navigation and object avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It will even return to the dock to replenish its battery part way through a clean.
It's very efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast, and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways with only one pass. Its 8,000pa motor is able to remove dirt, pet hair, and poop with ease. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects rugs and the dual side brush assists in removing debris from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as good. The rotating mop spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when getting into narrow corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like books and broken toys.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't make as loud of a sound while vacuuming or mopping and is much quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a proprietary mopping solution and is sold separately. It's simple to install and performs well, but this is something you'll need to be aware of when you purchase this vacuum for the sole purpose of it mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most
robot cleaner vacuums that mops in its class. It comes with a wide array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners looking to purchase a highly effective, versatile and ad-hoc cleaning machine.
The device is equipped with an efficient cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the house and also find furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean effectively and effectively. This ensures an even and thorough clean, while also being relatively fast.
In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads are capable of reaching a wide range of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach areas. They also come with a stretchy side brush that can extend to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads are able to be cleaned and dried to prevent build-up and reduce the odors.
App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction strength and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it should make, which will determine how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also decide to turn off the side brush to avoid damaging carpets and rugs.
The device comes with a expensive price, but comes with a large selection of smart features. It is important to remember, however, that the device is subject to periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and regular maintenance. For example brushrolls need to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter is recommended to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads should be replaced every one to three months.
The
robot vacuum mop is a top Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with an power button that doubles as a 'Clean button' and a Home' button to send it home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank, and cleans and drys its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be the ideal choice for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home clean with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1
robot vacuum cleaners uk vacuum and mop that is, it can do mopping and vacuuming. It has two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with a microfiber pad that snaps in and out of place. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming however it does mean you don't have to worry about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.
Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its most impressive feature is its accurate floorplan map, which it uses when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by 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 the corners and crevices of our stairs, where other robots struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low, and there were some nice jingles to inform you that it was starting and working towards its goal.
The app was too simple and you had to alter the modules every time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot save multiple maps. This can be a problem if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot that can do both vacuuming and mopping.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robotic vacuum that is able to mop in our test, but it comes with some distinct features that are worth considering. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that serves as an charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses the 2.5-liter dustbin and the 2.5 milliliter dust bin.
The base has a few control buttons, which allow you to manually begin a cleaning task or recall the robot, or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Press two buttons to toggle the child lock. This is a wonderful feature for parents who are worried about their children playing with the vacuum.
The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to detect obstacles and furniture that are in its path. It will avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more precise in finding objects.
This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets entangled in an obstacle, such as a power cable draped over a rug. It won't work until you remove it manually. Although this is not a common occurrence but it was a very frustrating experience when it happened and especially because the X1 Omni does not come with a "stuck" status alert in its application.
The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad however, the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between use. This can cause mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame), who created its sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a significant contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing appearance in a market which is dominated by clunky boxes and clunky models.
