The best robot vacuum that mops (from the Meetme blog)

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment. His main focus is mopping robots and vacuum combinations. These multitaskers are an excellent option for those looking to take mopping off their to-do list. Some of them have excellent navigation and obstacle avoidance. Some even wash and refill mopping pads for a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mop, this is the model you should go for. It's smaller than the other options on this list making it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar that combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best navigation and object avoidance that I've ever seen in a robot vacuum. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery that lasts for up to 170-minutes, if mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it is able to run longer in turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.

It's quick and does a great job cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It vacuums carpeted rooms extremely quickly and hardwood floors in the hallways, and living room in one go. Its 8,000pa suction motor makes short work of picking up dirt, droppings and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the dual side brushes help pull away debris from corners.

The mopping performance is less impressive, though not by much. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arms extend out a bit more than other robots, which is useful for getting into tight corners and on baseboards. The front arms can be used to sweep up larger debris, like broken toys or books.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've tried. It doesn't create as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming and is much 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 its mopping function and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's easy to install and performs well however this is something that you'll need to be aware of if you're buying this robot vacuum cleaner reviews vacuum for the sole purpose of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a wide range of features.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the home and locate furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean intelligently and efficiently. This will ensure an efficient and consistent cleaning and is also rapid.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad is capable of reaching many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards and other difficult to reach areas. 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.

Another noteworthy feature is the app-based customization options. The Q Revo lets you adjust the strength of suction and choose between a back-andforth, or a more 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 prevent 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 that the device incurs periodic costs in the form of mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For instance the brushroll needs 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 must be replaced every three to six months.

The robot vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and comes with a wide range of physical automation features. The vacuum also has a power button which doubles as a 'Clean button' and a 'Home button that allows it to go back home after cleaning. It also comes with a multifunctional 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 a good choice for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home clean without spending too much time on chores. Its powerful performance, smart navigation, and long battery life allow you to maintain a clean home with little effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it can handle 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 module which is equipped with microfiber pads. 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 disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan map, which it uses to draw a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting 'No-Go zones' and virtual barriers, which can help to keep certain areas of your house from being cleaned with mop.

The Matrix Plus also did a amazing job of collecting hair from pets. It was able to collect an enormous amount of hair our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots struggled. It was relatively quiet and even had some nice jingles that indicated when it was beginning or completing its task.

The app was too easy and you had to switch the modules every time you switched between vacuuming and mops. The app doesn't have the capacity to hold multiple maps, which could be a pain when you live in a house with a mix 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 is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our review, however it also has distinctive features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its massive dock, which doubles as a charging base and the housing for two 4 liter water tanks, a sink for cleaning as well as an automatic 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.

The base has a few control buttons that allow you to manually start a cleaning task and then recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Press two of the buttons to toggle a child lock that is a great touch for parents worried about children playing with the vacuum.

Like other robotic vacuums the Omni Omni utilizes its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path and eliminate them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in finding objects.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will sometimes get so entangled with an obstacle--such as a power cord draped across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you remove it manually. This was a rare occurrence however it was frustrating because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert in its app.

The X1 Omni is unable to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You will need to manually swap between the two, which isn't too bad apart from the fact that mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between uses and can cause mildew or mold.

On the bright side, the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot cleaner with mop thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its sleek, modern-looking 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.
