The Best robot vacuum with mop Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He conducts tests and reviews of cleaning equipment. His focus is on mopping and robot vacuum combinations. These multitaskers are an excellent option for those looking to take mopping off their to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and some even wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model to pick if you are looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver into tight corners and underneath furniture. It has a 220-degree lidar, which when combined with its 3D Matrix camera system gives it some of the best navigation and obstacle avoidance I've ever seen in a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery which can last up to 170 mins when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It can even return to its dock to recharge its battery mid-clean.
It's quick and does a great job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted rooms incredibly quickly and hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in one go. The suction motor's 8,000pa will quickly pick up sand, dirt and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes into contact with rugs, and the dual side brushes help pull out debris from corners.
The mopping performance is less impressive, but not by much. The mop rotates quickly and makes use of 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into tight corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to scoop up larger debris like broken toys and books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've tested. It doesn't make the same volume of 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's simple to install and is effective however this is something that you'll have to keep an eye on when you purchase this vacuum solely for the purpose of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuum reviews Vacuums That Mop [Minhngoc.Group] vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner 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 your home, find furniture and other obstacles.

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. These include corners and baseboards as well as other hard-to-reach areas. They also have a flexible side brush that extends to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. In addition the mop pads can be washed and dried to avoid build-up and lessen odors.
App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction intensity and choose an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes, which determines how fast it can move around your home. You can also turn off the side brush in order to prevent damage to carpets and rug.
The device is costly, however it has many useful features. It is important to remember that the device incurs regular expenses, such as mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example the brushroll needs to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to twelve months. The filter should be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pads must be changed every three month.
This robot vacuum mop has a high Amazon rating and comes with many physical automation features. These include the power button that can also function as a general 'Clean button, as well as a 'Home button that sends it back to its base station once it has completed its cleaning task.

The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good option for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time doing chores. It has powerful performance, intelligent navigation, and long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home clean with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it can handle both vacuuming and mopping. The robot is divided into two parts that include a dry bin as well as a water tank that can be snapped in and out and a mopping unit that has a microfiber pad. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean that you don't have to fret about changing disposable bags or refilling the tank of water.
Our test participants discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its best robot vacuum feature was its accurate map of your floorplan that it uses to create a route when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate between rugs, furniture, and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' or virtual barriers to prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.
The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of picking up hair from pets. It was able to capture an enormous amount of hair that our cats shed, and even got into the nooks and crannys of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels were low, and there were some pleasant jingles to signal that it was starting and getting its work done.
Its biggest drawbacks were its simplistic app and the necessity to change out the modules whenever switching between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot store multiple maps. This can be an issue 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 robot vacuum is the most expensive of our review. However, it has some unique features which are worth a look. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its enormous dock which doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two water tanks, a clean sink as well as the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically emptys.
The base has a few control buttons that let you manually start a cleaning task, recall the robot or run the dock's automatic emptying procedure. Press two of the buttons to turn off the child lock that is a great option for parents concerned about kids tinkering with the vacuum.
Similar to other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path and avoid them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more precise in recognising objects.
Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will sometimes get so entangled with an obstacle--such as the power cord that is draped across a rug that it becomes stuck and stops working until you manually free it. This was a rare occurrence, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have a "stuck status" alert on its app.
Another possible issue is one of the biggest drawbacks is X1 Omni's inability to automatically change between vacuuming and mopping modes during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad but mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can cause mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek modern, contemporary base and mopping pad. It's a big departure from the utilitarian, all-black bases that are used by rivals like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing sight in a space that is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
