The best robot vacuum and mop Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at good robot vacuum Housekeeping.
He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances. His focus is on robot vacuums, and mopping combinations. These multitaskers can be a great option for those who are looking to eliminate mopping from their list of things to do. Some models have superior navigation and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should pick if you are looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than other models on this list which makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners and under furniture. It uses a 220 degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the most effective navigation and object avoidance that I've ever seen in a robot vacuum. It's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It will even return to the dock to top up its battery midway through cleaning.
It's extremely fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It can vacuum carpeted rooms fast, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways in just one pass. Its 8,000pa motor is able to pick up dirt, pet hair, and even droppings easily. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the double side brush helps to remove debris from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as effective. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and stains. I've also noticed that the front arms protrude out a bit more than other robots, which can be helpful to maneuver around tight corners and along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to pick up larger debris like books and broken toys.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tried. It doesn't make as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and is effective however this is something you'll need to be aware of if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaning machine with a variety of features.
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 identify furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and effectively. This will ensure an even and thorough clean, while also being relatively quick.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach places. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor close to the walls and other fixtures. The mop pads are also washable and can be dried to reduce odors and prevent buildup.
App-based customization is another notable feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the amount of suction and select between a back-andforth, or a more random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it should make, which will determine how quickly the device can move around your home. You can also decide to disable the side brush to prevent damaging rugs and carpets.
The device has a expensive price, but comes with a large selection of smart features. It's crucial to note that it incurs periodic costs, such as mopping supplies and maintenance. For instance, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and mop pads should be replaced every one to three months.
The robot vacuum mop has an excellent Amazon rating and includes a wide range of physical automation features. These include the power button that serves as a general "Clean button as well as a Home' button that will send it back to its base station once it has completed its cleaning session. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the trash bin, fills up its water tank, and cleans and dry its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a professional with a lot of work or someone who just wants an organized home that doesn't require much time doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent choice. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean house with little effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuums that mop (king-Wifi.win) autonomous vacuum is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop. It is capable of mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two parts, a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping unit that has microfiber pads. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming might seem a bit outdated, but they do mean you don't have to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.
Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map that it uses to create a route when cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture rug, furniture and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers, which help to protect certain areas of your house from being swept with mop.
We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair from pets. It was able to collect a lot of the hair our cats shed, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies on our stairs where other robots have struggled. It was relatively quiet and even had some pleasant jingles that let you know when it was about to start or completing its task.
The app was too simple and you had to change the modules each time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app can't keep multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for a smart robot that is capable of mopping and vacuuming.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our review, but it also has distinctive features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is most well-known for its enormous dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot, a cleaning sink and two water tanks of 4 liters. It also houses a 2.5-liter dust bin and a 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.
The base also comes with a set of control buttons that allow you to manually start cleaning, recall the robot, or use the dock's automatic vacuum and mop emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents worried about their 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.
The X1 can be prone to become stuck when it is entangled in a blockage like the power cable that is draped over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event however, it was a bit frustrating since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert in its application.
Another possible issue is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during cleaning. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad apart from 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 base and mopping pad. It's a big contrast to the basic black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for the market that is dominated by boxy models.
