The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. These multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and some wash and refill their own mopping pads for a hands-off clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model you need to select if you're looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner and mop vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list making it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers some of my favorite navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can run longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery in mid-clean.

It is very fast and does an excellent job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in one go. Its 8,000pa motor is able to clean dirt, pet hair, and poop with ease. Carpet detection automatically increases power when it detects carpets and the double side brushes help to clean debris from corners.

The mopping performance, while still impressive, is not as impressive. The mop rotates at a high speed and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, easily scrubbing up dirt and staining. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a little more than other robots that vacuum and mop. This is helpful in narrow corners or along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to pick up larger debris like books and broken toys.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've ever used. It doesn't produce the same volume of sound while vacuuming or mopping and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for mopping and is separate from the vacuum. It is easy to install and works well. However when you purchase this robot vacuums that mop vacuum for mopping you must pay attention to this.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It has a robust suite of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for an efficient, flexible and ad-hoc cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with a powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the house and locate furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This leads to an efficient, consistent clean which is also relatively quick.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult 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. Additionally the mop pads can be dried and washed to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the smell.

App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you adjust the strength of suction and choose between a back-and-forth or slightly more random patterns. You can also choose the number of passes, which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can also turn off the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and rugs.

This device is expensive but it comes with a lot of smart features. It is important to note, however, that the device is subject to periodic costs in the form of mopping equipment and regular maintenance. For example, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad needs to be replaced every one to three months.

This robot vacuum that mops (look at this now) is rated highly on Amazon and offers a wide range of physical automation features. These include an energy button that can also function as a general 'Clean button as well as a Home' button that will send it back to its base station after completing its cleaning session. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically emptys the dustbin, refills its water tank and washes and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

If you're a professional with a lot of work or just want to have a clean home without spending much time doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a excellent option. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it easy to keep your home clean with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, that is, it can do mopping and vacuuming. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping module with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. Separate modules for mopping and vacuuming might seem a bit outdated but they're a good thing because you don't have to think about changing disposable bags or refilling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at vacuuming and mopping. Its Best robot vacuum cleaner UK feature was its precise floorplan map, which it uses to create a route 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 protect specific areas of your home from being cleaned with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at picking up pet hair. It was able to capture a lot of the hair shed by our cats, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots have struggled. It was quiet and even had some nice jingles that let you know when it was about to start or finishing its work.

The biggest flaws were its lack of sophistication and the need to switch out the modules when switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't save multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those who want an intelligent robot that can do both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, but it has some distinct features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni is notable for its massive dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks that are 4 liters in size. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dust bin as well as an 2.5 dust bin that is 2.5 liters.

The base also has a number 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 buttons to turn off a child lock which is a great touch for parents worried about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to detect obstacles and furniture in its path. It will steer clear of 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 if it gets caught in a blockage, such as a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't work until you manually untangle it. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its application.

Another potential downside is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You'll need to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't too bad however, the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.

On the bright side the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuum cleaners uk thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who dreamed up its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad. It's a huge contrast to the basic black bases of competitors like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an excellent choice for a market dominated by clunky boxy models.
