The
Best Robot Vacuum That MopsNoah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He evaluates and tests cleaning appliances. His main focus is mopping and robot vacuum combinations. Multitaskers are a great option for those looking to get mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some wash and refill their own mopping pads for a hands-off clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model to choose if you want a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than other options which makes it easier to maneuver in tight spaces or under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of my favorite navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it can last longer in turbo). It can even return to the dock to top up its battery midway through cleaning.
It's quick and does a great job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms quickly and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room and hallways in just one pass. Its motor of 8,000pa is able to clean dirt, pet hair, and droppings with ease. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help pull away debris from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as impressive. The rotating mop spins fast and makes use of 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stain. I've also noticed that the front arms extend out a bit more than other robots, which is helpful to get into tight corners and on baseboards. Those same front arms can also be used to sweep larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've tested. 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 only drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a specific cleaning solution to perform mopping and is separate from the vacuum. It is simple to install, and it works well. However, if you are buying this
robot hoover vacuum to mop you must be aware of this.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo is different from other
robot hoover vacuums in its class. It has a robust suite 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 a powerful cleaning system that incorporates LiDAR sensor technology and an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the house, find furniture and other obstacles. It can then use this information to clean methodically and efficiently. This results in a thorough, consistent clean that's also fairly fast.
The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach a variety of surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other hard to reach areas. They also have a flexible side brush that extends to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. The mop pads can also be washable and dry to remove odors and prevent buildup.
Another notable feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also select the number of passes which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
The device has a expensive price, but has a variety of innovative features. It is important to remember, however, that the device is subject to regular expenses, such as mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For example the brushroll has to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter must be cleaned after 150 hours and the mop pad should be replaced every three to six months.
This robotic vacuum cleaner is rated highly on Amazon and comes with a wide variety of physical automation features. These include an energy button that can also function as a general 'Clean' button and a 'Home' button that will send it back to its base station after completing its cleaning task. It also comes with a multifunctional dock which automatically empty the dustbin, refills 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 just wants a cleaner home without spending much time doing chores The Shark Matrix Plus is a solid option. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean home with little effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a two-in-one vacuum and mop. It can do both vacuuming as well as mopping. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping unit with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of the way. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming, but it does mean that you don't need to worry about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank of water.
The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its
best automatic vacuum and mop feature was its accurate floorplan map, which it uses to determine a route when cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mop.
We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair of pets. It was able to capture a large amount of hair shed by our cats and even was able to get into the nooks and crannys of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels of the robot were low and there were nice jingles to inform you that it was beginning and getting its work done.
The biggest flaws were its simple app and the requirement to change between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app can't keep multiple maps. This can be an issue if your house has several floors. The Matrix Plus
robot vacuum cleaners reviews is a excellent choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive in our review. However, it does have distinct features that make it worth considering. The X1 Omni's main draw is its massive dock that doubles as the robot's charging base and the housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a cleaning sink and an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.
The base also has a number of control buttons that let you manually start cleaning and then recall the robot or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to toggle the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents who are worried about their children messing around with the vacuum.
Like other robotic vacuums, the Omni Omni uses its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more precise in finding objects.
The X1 can be prone to become stuck when it gets caught in a hazard, such as a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you untangle it manually. While this was rare but it was a very frustrating experience when it happened and especially because the X1 Omni doesn't come with an "stuck" status alert on its app.
The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You will need to manually switch between the two, which isn't too bad except for the fact that mopping pads aren't cleaned and dried between uses and can cause mildew or mold.
