Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner and Mop
Robot vacuum cleaners and mops are a great method to quickly clean up mess. The top robot vacuums and mop I test had superior mapping and navigation. They picked up Cheerios and fake dog turds as well as wires that were strung up.
They're also simple to use with an application that lets you plan cleaning tasks and track what they're doing.
1. Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra
The Roborock S8 MaxV is the best robot mop and vacuum combination. It comes with the most recent features. This high-end vacuum is fast and agile, and it picked up pet hair and human dander almost flawlessly in our Debris Pickup Test. It also has a smart-looking app interface with a mini map of your house and some on-screen buttons for manual control.
The S8's Dirt Detection Technology enables it to adjust the cleaning mode according to the amount of dirt. It will clean its mopping pads more frequently when it encounters dust. Carpeted areas get priority for mopping using mopping pads that are damp.
The mop's roller has a number of other smart features, such as docks that can be connected to your home's plumbing system to wash and clean it without having to manually refill the mop. You can even use voice commands to control the built-in voice assistant of the S8, saying "Hey Rocky" to specify the cleaning of your room, modes, and granular controls using just your voice.
2. Yeedi Cube
The Yeedi Cube offers a variety of options for those who want a hands-free robot vacuum that can also mop. It's part of a plethora of robot vacuums with mops, however it's priced at a cheaper price than most of the competition.
As with most robovacs the Yeedi Cube also requires some work to get it up and running. This involves setting up an account on the app and connecting the device to your WiFi network. Once you've completed this, the robot will begin to vacuum and mop effortlessly.
It is important to remember that the mapping process may take a while and the Yeedi Cube may need a couple of attempts before it can get a good picture of your space. In addition, object detection can be difficult to determine; it was able to get around furniture and other obstacles, but was stuck on a looser tassel rug and had to turn it over to get free. These are minor flaws and the Yeedi Cube remains a great choice for those in need of a cleaning companion that does everything.
3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete
The Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete is a three-in-one home cleaning solution. Its mopping technology is advanced and features a rotating motion like hand scrubbing which results in floors that are actually cleaned and not just cleaned. Its detachable stick-vacuum is a game changer that allows you to reach spots even robot vacuums can't.
This model is nearly identical to the popular X2 Omni but with a slightly increased suction power of 8,700Pa as well as a few additional features that are smart. The upgraded RGBD sensor is able to learn your home's layout better and provide dynamic obstacle avoidance. The smart app lets you customize the settings of your choice, including scheduling, AI cleanings, and setting virtual boundaries.
The X2 Combo is also self-prepping by having both the robot vacuum and the mop returning to their charging station after each task to wash their pads, empty their dust bins and put the waste in the self-sealing bags. This helps keep the system clean and prevents allergens from recirculating. The battery's life is enough to remove large areas without the need for an additional charge during cleaning.
4. Eufy S1 Pro
As one of the premium robot vacuum and mop models that we have reviewed, the Eufy S1 Pro offers impressive features for the price. It features powerful 8,000 Pa suction, a moving floor brush for carpets and a fantastic obstacle avoidance. It also has an unique mopping method that uses a roller constantly misting with water to capture dirt, and then dump it in the water tank.
Its navigation system performed well. It stayed clear of the stairs and was able to navigate close to walls without crashing. It was unable to handle fine debris and didn't always clear the thresholds in rooms. Its operating noise is also quite high, and it could be less of a "set-and-forget" model than some.
The S1 Pro, like most robotic vacuums, comes with docking systems that allow it to refill its clean water tank, empty the dust bin and wash and dry the mop, and then empty its mop pad. This makes upkeep easy and allows the S1 Pro to spend more time cleaning floors on an ongoing basis. You can manage all of its functions using the Eufy app, which gives an easy overview and lots of configuration options.
5. Freo X Ultra
The Freo X Ultra robot vacuum/mower is among the top mowers and vacuums available that are available. It offers impressive vacuuming and mopping results. The LIDAR mapping sensors can detect furniture legs, obstacles and other obstacles with a reasonable accuracy. The app lets users fine-tune the coverage of the map, establish no-go zones, or alter the cleaning preferences. The Freo's main roller brush is also designed to prevent hair from wrapping around it, which can be an issue for many robotic vacuums.
The Mop Mode also impresses, with Reuleaux triangular mop heads that rotate at 180 RPM and apply up to 12N downward pressure. The mopping system also incorporates intelligent carpet detection, which lifts these pads upwards when they're close to soft surfaces, preventing them from contaminating the carpet.
The docking station that is all-in-one functions as a hands-free maintenance centre, automatically washing and drying the mops before refilling them with water and detergent. The base station comes with an integrated dust processing system that compacts dust, which allows seven weeks of maintenance-free operation.
6. S10
This robot is just a few hundred dollars more than the S8 and does a great job of keeping my home office clean. It is also able to reach the corners of my tiny apartment. It uses laser mapping and a camera to build a map of your space and knows where to stay away from. It also has a detector for objects and obstructions that can block things like dog bowls and toys (but not poop), unlike many vacuums.
Other great features include a self emptying dustbin as well as a mop that's self-washing, adjustable for water temperature, and a side-reaching mops that can reach areas that other mops miss. automated vacuum cleaner can also set up cleaning schedules within the app and adjust the settings for each room of your home.
It features the same multi-room smart mapping feature as the S8 and can distinguish between laminate and carpets with high-pile rug. It also lets you skip mopping rooms that are not filthy if you're trying to save time. It's a great option if you have a mix of flooring in your home but aren't looking to spend the money to buy a Roborock with advanced mapping features.
7. Q5 Pro
This robot is a great choice when you're looking for a versatile robot that can perform regular maintenance on a daily basis as well as touch-ups to wet messes. It comes with a wide range of features such as a self-emptying dustbin, a separate dock for refilling water, and customizable settings via the app. It's surprisingly quiet and easily moves around furniture legs or socks. However, it can't take care of the tangled tassels of rugs, and its battery drains faster than other models we tested in our tests.
The Q5 Pro, with a price of less than $250, is a powerhouse that provides a powerful suction and convenient automation, all in a sleek and stylish. It didn't perform as well as the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra in our tests for vacuuming, but overall it did very well. It has a variety of cleaning modes, from the low power 'Quiet mode for light debris to the powerful Turbo mode for carpeted areas. It also has the capability to automatically remove and reattach its mop pads, without getting your carpets wet.
8. K10 Plus
The K10 Plus is an excellent robot mop and vacuum that can be used in small areas. It's extremely quick and quiet, and it can navigate tight spaces well. It also does a nice job of getting pet hair off carpeting.
It's smaller than its rivals, but doesn't sacrifice any features. It has a good amount of suction power and it can be configured to take a photo of any object it comes across (i.e., chew toys or socks) and mark them as 'not found' in the app so that they won't be removed during subsequent cleanings. The photos are secure, and not tied to you account.
It is great at vacuuming, but not as great at mopping. It makes use of disposable wet wipes that you clip to the bot's bottom, and then it drags them around the floor. Compare this to the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra and Narwhal models, which have water reservoirs that can automatically wash and reattach their mophead.
