The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops

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

He tests and evaluates cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot vacuums best vacuum combos. These multitaskers are a great choice for those who want to take mopping off their to-do list. Some models have superior navigation and obstacle avoidance. Others even wash and refill mopping pads themselves for a hands-free cleaning.

The Eufy S1 Pro

This is the model to select if you're looking for a robot mop vacuum cleaner that also mop. It's smaller than other options on this list which makes it easier to maneuver in tight corners and under furniture. It comes with a 220 degree Lidar that, when combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, gives it some of the best robot hoover navigation and object avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last up to 170 mins when mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It can even return to the dock to replenish its battery halfway through an efficient.

It's very quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the living room, and hallways in a single pass. Its suction motor of 8,000pa will quickly pick up dirt, crumbs and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it encounters rugs and the two side brushes help pull out dirt from corners.

The mopping performance is less impressive, but not by a lot. The mop's rotating mechanism spins fast and uses 2.2lbs to scrub dirt and stains. I've also noticed that the front arms extend out slightly more than other robots, which is helpful for getting into tight corners and on baseboards. Those same front arms can also be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and fallen books.

Another good thing is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've tried. It is quieter and doesn't produce more noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it has to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and is effective however, this is something that you'll have to be aware of if you're buying this robot 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 comes with a wide array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want an extremely efficient, flexible and ad-hoc cleaning machine.

The device is equipped with an extremely powerful and impressive cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensors and an RGB camera to map the house and identify furniture and other obstacles. It can thene a professional with a lot of work or someone who just wants to have a clean home without spending hours doing chores, the Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. Its incredibly fast performance, sophisticated navigation, and long battery life make it simple to maintain a clean home with little effort.

The Matrix Plus robot vacuum reviews automatic vacuum and mop robot is a two-in-one mop and vacuum. It is able to perform vacuuming as well as mopping. The robot has two modules: a combined dry bin and reservoir of water, and a separate mopping system with a microfiber pad that snaps into and out of the way. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping might seem a bit outdated however, they mean that you don't need to worry about changing bags for disposables or refilling the water tank.

Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job at both vacuuming and mopping. Its greatest feature was its accurate floorplan which it uses to create the path to follow when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate easily around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option to set "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which can help to protect specific areas of your home from being swept with a mop.

We also noticed that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well in removing hair of pets. It was able to capture many of the hair shed by our cats, and even got into some of the nooks and crannies on our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was silent and also had a few lovely jingles to indicated when it was starting or finished its work.

The app was too simple and you had to switch the modules each time you changed between vacuuming and mopping. The app cannot save multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot that can perform both mopping and vacuuming.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. However, it has distinct features that make it worth looking into. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its enormous dock that doubles as the robot's charging base and the housing for two water tanks, a sink for cleaning and the 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically eliminates.

The base has a few control buttons that allow you to manually start cleaning tasks and then recall the robot or run the dock’s auto-emptying procedure. Press two of the buttons to turn off a child lock that is a great option for parents concerned about kids tinkering with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to identify obstacles and furniture in its path. It will stay clear of them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.

This can cause the X1 to get stuck if it is entangled in a hazard like a power cable tangled over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. This was a rare incident however, it was a bit frustrating because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert on its app.

The X1 Omni isn't able to automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during cleaning. You'll have to manually swap between the two modes, which isn't an issue except for the fact that the mopping pads haven't been cleaned and dried between use and can cause mildew or 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 significant change from the utilitarian all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome sight in a space which is dominated by clunky, boxy units.
