The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He evaluates and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuum reviews vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to cross mopping off the to-do list. They feature impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and they can 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 best vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than the other options, making it easier to maneuver in tight spaces or under furniture. It features a 220-degree Lidar that, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, provides some of the best rated robot vacuum navigation and object avoidance features I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It has a 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170 minutes when mopping and sucking is set to standard mode. (It can be more efficient when using turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.

It is very 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 suction motor of 8,000pa makes short work of picking up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes into contact with rugs, and the two side brushes help draw out dirt from corners.

The mopping efficiency is less impressive, though not by much. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to remove dirt and stain. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into narrow corners or on baseboards. The same front arms can also be used to sweep larger objects, such as broken toys and books.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've ever used. It is quieter and doesn't make as much noise when mopping or vacuuming. The only issue is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for mopping and is separate from the vacuum. It's easy to install and performs well however, this is something you'll need to keep an eye on if you're buying this robot vacuum solely for the purpose of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo is different from other robot vacuums in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it an ideal option for homeowners looking for a highly effective, versatile and adaptable cleaning machine.

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

The Q Revo DuoRoller mop pad can reach many surfaces. This includes corners, baseboards, and other hard-to-reach spots. The side brush can be stretched out to reach the floor near to the walls and other fixtures. Additionally the mop pads are able to be cleaned and dried to prevent the build-up of dust and reduce the odors.

App-based customization is a different interesting feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction level and select an back-and-forth or random pattern. You can also choose the number of passes which will determine the speed at which it can move around your home. You can also disable the side brush to prevent damage to carpets and rug.

The device comes with a high price tag but comes with a large selection of smart features. It is important to note that the device is subject to recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies as well as regular maintenance. For example, a brushroll needs to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad should be replaced every three to six months.

The robot vacuum mop is a top Amazon rating and comes with many physical automation features. The robot vacuum also comes with a power button which doubles as the 'Clean button' and a 'Home button to send it home after cleaning. It also comes with a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin, refills its water tank, and wash and drys its mop pads.

The Shark Matrix Plus

The Shark Matrix Plus will be a good option for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home clean without spending too much time doing chores. Its powerful performance, intelligent navigation and long battery life make it easy to maintain a clean house with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it is able to handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two parts, a dry bin and water tank that can be easily snapped in and out and a mopping module that is equipped with microfiber pads. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated but they're a good thing because you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refueling the water tank.

The Matrix Plus performed well at both vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its precise floorplan map, which it uses to create the path to follow when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which can help to keep certain areas of your home from being cleaned with a mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair from pets. It was able capture the majority of hair that our cats shed and even found its way into the nooks and crannys of our stairs which other robots that vacuum and mop struggled. It was quiet and even had some pleasant jingles that let you know when it was about to start or finished its work.

The app was too basic and you had to switch the modules every time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app doesn't have the capacity to hold multiple maps, which could be a hassle if you have a home that has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a great choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can vacuum and mop.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our review, but it has some distinct features that make it worth a look. The X1 Omni is notable for its enormous dock that doubles as an charging base for the robot, a sink for cleaning and two water tanks of 4 liters. It also houses two bins: a 2.5-liter dust bin and a 2.5 liter dust bin.

The base also comes with a set of buttons to control the system. These let you manually start cleaning and then recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents worried about their children playing with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to detect furniture and obstacles in its path. It will avoid 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 precise at finding objects.

Unfortunately, this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally get caught up in 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. This is a rare event however, it was a bit frustrating because the X1 doesn't have an "stuck status" alert on its application.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually swap between the two, which isn't an issue except for the fact that mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between uses which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the bright side the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who conceptualized its sleek, modern-looking base and mopping pad. It's a big change from the utilitarian all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and a pleasing view in a market that is dominated by bulky boxy models.
