Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos
Robot vacuums and mop are getting more powerful. They pass our cleaning tests, and are able to handle various flooring. Find models that allow you to select from multiple modes, use their charging docks to self-empty and clean the stairs.
Many of the top models integrate with your smartphone. Look for an application that lets you save maps, schedules, and select cleaning modes.
1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
Eufy's gunmetal-and gloss black Omni S1 Pro is one of the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combinations on the market. It makes use of lidar to navigate, and create maps of rooms and floors (even multiple levels), and works with the free Eufy Clean application that lets you set schedules and alter the behavior of the S1.
The S1 was capable of mapping my downstairs quickly, which comprises linoleum flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms and also a large rugs and a medium-pile. It was capable of driving close to walls and even over raised thresholds without any problems. However, it had some difficulty getting down the stairs in one step. The S1 also did an excellent job of cleaning hard floors with its mop that moved smoothly on the flat side against the floor and lifting itself when it was near carpet or carpet.
After every mopping session, the docking station on the S1 automatically emptys its dust bin and refills the water tank with clean ozonated filtered water. The dock adds a deep-cleaning solution for the water. The S1's water tank holds enough water for around 12 cleaning sessions before needing to be empty, but this can vary based on how much you use the mop.
Like all 2-in-1 robots the S1 requires periodic maintenance to ensure it is operating well. To do this, you'll need to clean the dirty water tank occasionally to prevent it from clogging. It is also necessary to clean your sensors and swivel wheel regularly to avoid them getting clogged up with dirt or dust. Overall the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.
2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete
Ecovacs All-in-one robotic vacuum and mop provides a powerful solution for your cleaning requirements. Its robot vacuum boasts 8,700Pa of suction and offers numerous innovative features, including full home mapping, voice control, and smart path-planning to avoid obstructions and cleans furniture. Its mopping capability is impressive. Rotating mop pads actually lift floors and scrub it, rather than just drag a pad across a surface. Mops can also be cleaned and dried at the base station when needed.
This robot combination is simple to install and use, with a clear interface that walks you through the process. It also includes a hand vacuum which can be used to clean those hard-to reach areas that the robot is unable to reach. There are two water tanks that are automatically emptied or filled. It also has a number of useful settings to fine-tune your cleaning preferences.
The Deebot X2 Combo Complete does well at vacuuming, and has a powerful suction that easily picks up all kinds of debris, including the tiny dust particles that other robots struggle with. robot vacuum cleaner are also quite good, though it can get stuck on small mats and rugs at my home (which you can alleviate by creating virtual boundaries within the app). Its mopping capabilities are also quite good and include a pair of mops which are able to lift and scrub floors instead of drag the pad across it. The mops can be cleaned with hot water and dried in the basestation as needed. The mops are also filled from the top of the base station as needed.
3. Dreame X40 Ultra
Dreame released the luxe X30 Ultra earlier this year however their latest top-of-the-line robot mop and vacuum comes with more impressive features. It boasts fantastic cleaning results and hands-off maintenance, making it a clear contender for our top mop and robot vacuum list. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart detection and a larger side brush will ensure an effective, customized cleaning is accomplished.
The X40 Ultra vacuums well, it can remove both large and fine debris. It works equally well on carpets and hard floors. It cleaned the dirtiest areas of our tests with ease while avoiding pet hairs and other dirt. The sweeping power of the machine is boosted by a sidebrush that automatically swings out in order to reach hard-to-reach areas, and mop pads that extend along baseboards.
Its navigation is smart, navigating narrow spaces and climbing the stairs without a hitch. It can easily move from one room to another without having to reverse direction, which is a handy feature for larger homes with many rooms. Its obstacle avoidance technology isn't as advanced than some competitors however, and tends to leave a thick space over obstacles, which can result in missed spots.
The app is streamlined user interface that is designed to be user-friendly for both new and experienced users. The app lets you schedule and control cleaning tasks. You can also adjust suction power, mop settings as well as view 2D and 3-D maps. It is accessible via the app, Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri and allows you to monitor its progress from anywhere. You can also use the X40 Ultra's camera remotely to get real-time video monitoring. You'll require a stable WiFi connection to use the app and external controls.
4. Roomba Q5 pro
A robot vacuum does a great job of picking up dirt and debris however, it's not able to reach every last bit of dust. It is important to clean often, at least once a week. This is especially important for dust that accumulates in corners, on shelves and in the crevices of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro, a 2-in-1 robot that vacuums as well as mops, is designed to do just that. It's easy to connect to your Wi-Fi at home network and integrates with Alexa and Apple Siri, making it an even more practical addition to your routine of cleaning.
The Q5 is a stripped-down version of the company's more expensive S-series models. It includes the flagship Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. robot hoover is equipped with the same LIDAR mapping sensors, but it's less expensive because it does not have mopping capabilities and comes with an aluminum body.
Despite losing the ability to clean your floors, the Q5 has the most impressive mopping and vacuum performance we've seen from a robotic in this price range. It has a strong suction of 5500Pa, and an automatic empty system that means you don't have to empty the bin by hand each time. It also features a smart app that lets you select your floor type and schedule cleanings, and an automatic water tank refill and wash system to allow hands-free operation.
Its mops also impress with their 2700Pa power to combat pet hair and dirt on carpets and hard floors. The Q5 was one of the few robots we tested to not have problems with high-pile carpets and rugs. However, it did not pick up kitty-litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise, since it does NOT contain AI-powered obstacle avoidance.
5. K10 Plus
K10 Plus is one of the most quiet robovacs that we've tested. It also has a unique method to map your home this allows it to get into the corners and tight spaces that other vacuums can't reach. The device also collects dust in a bigger dustbin which means you have empty it less frequently. It also has washable filters which can further cut costs. The robot can recognize carpets, and increase suction if necessary. You can also mark off areas you would like to be able to keep from using the app.
