The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be a great option for those who are looking to get rid of mopping off their list of things to do. Some models have superior mapping and obstacle avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic automatic vacuum cleaner that also mop, this is the model to look for. It is smaller than other options which makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces or under furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar which, when paired with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best automatic vacuum navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robot mop automatic vacuum cleaner. It has a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 minutes when mopping and sucking is 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 fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It is able to vacuum carpeted rooms quickly, and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways in just one pass. Its 8,000pa suction motor will quickly pick up dirt, droppings and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects carpets and the double side brush assists in removing debris from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, but not by much. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've also noticed that the front arms stick out slightly more than other robots, which is helpful to maneuver around tight corners and on baseboards. The front arms can also be employed to clean larger objects, such as broken toys or books.

Another nice feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't make more 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, if you are buying this robot vacuum solely for mopping you must be aware of this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it a great choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile and ad-hoc cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map the home and identify furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean methodically and intelligently. This ensures a thorough and consistent clean and is also rapid.

In terms of mopping, the Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can be used to reach an array of surface areas. They can reach corners or baseboards, as well as other hard-to-reach spots. They also have a flexible side brush that can be extended to the floor in close proximity to walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads are able to be dried and washed to avoid build-up and lessen the smell.

Another notable feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can even choose to turn off the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.

It's expensive, but it comes with a lot of smart features. It is important to note, however, that the device is subject to regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example, a brushroll needs to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad should be replaced every one to three months.

The robot vacuum mop has an excellent Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The vacuum also has an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean' button' and a Home button that allows it to go back home after cleaning. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empties the dustbin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dry its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a busy professional or just want a cleaner home without spending much time doing chores, the Shark Matrix Plus is a good 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 vacuum is a 2-in-1 mop and vacuum. It is able to perform mopping and vacuuming. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir, and Robot Vacuums That Mop a separate mopping unit with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of the way. It's not the most modern thing to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping but it does mean that you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature was its precise map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine the path to follow when cleaning. It was easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.

We also found that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in picking up hair from pets. It was able capture some of the hair shed by our cats, and even made it into the nooks and crannies on our stairs, where other robots had struggled. The noise levels were low, and there were some lovely jingles that inform you that it was beginning and finishing its work.

Its biggest drawbacks were its simple app and the requirement to change out the modules whenever switching between mopping and vacuuming. The app can't hold multiple maps, which could be a pain for homes that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a excellent choice for those who want a device that can mop and vacuum.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it does have distinct features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as a charging base for the robot vacuums best, a cleaning sink and two 4-liter water tanks. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dustbin and an 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base comes with a couple of buttons for control that let you manually begin a cleaning task and then recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Hold down two of the buttons to switch on a child lock, which is a nice option for parents concerned about their children playing with the vacuum.

The Omni Omni like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to detect obstacles and furniture that are in its path. It will avoid them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni can occasionally become so entangled with an obstruction, such as the power cord that is draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you remove it manually. While this was rare however, it was a gruelling experience when it did happen particularly since the X1 Omni does not come with a "stuck" status alert in its application.

Another potential downside is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during cleaning. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad, except that mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

On the positive side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad apparatus. It's a huge difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for an industry dominated by boxy units.
