Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos
Robot vacuums and mops are increasingly efficient, passing our tests of cleaning and tackling various floor types. Find models that allow you to select between several modes, utilize their charging dock to self-empty and clean the stairs.
Many of the top models are compatible with smartphones. Look for an app that allows you to save schedules, maps and select cleaning modes.
1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
The gloss black and gunmetal Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combinations available. It makes use of lidar to navigate and creates maps of rooms and floors.
When I tested the S1, it was able to identify the downstairs area, which has linoleum flooring in the kitchen-diner and bathrooms, as well as carpeting with a medium-pile and an area rug. It easily drove close to walls without crashing into them and even managed to cross thresholds that were raised in the room without problem, but it sometimes was unable to navigate down stairs in a single pass. The S1 performed admirably in cleaning hard floors. Its mop drove smoothly on its flat side and lifted itself when it came to carpets or rug.
Before each mopping session, the docking station of the S1 automatically emptys its trash bin and refills its water tank with filtered, clean water ozonated. The dock also adds a cleaning solution into the water for deep cleaning. The S1's water tank can hold enough water for around a dozen cleaning sessions before needing to be cleaned, although this will vary depending on how much you use the mop.
The S1 needs periodic maintenance, just like other 2-in-1 robots. To do this, you'll need to wash the dirty water tank regularly to keep it from becoming clogged. You'll also need to clean the swivel wheel and sensors regularly to prevent them from getting clogged by dirt or dust. Overall the S1 is easy to maintain, especially when compared to other combinations that require more hands-on maintenance.
2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete
This all-in-1 robot vacuum and mop combo from Ecovacs is a great choice for cleaning requirements. The Ecovacs robot vacuum comes with 8,700Pa suction power and comes with many innovative features including voice control and smart path scheduling that cleans furniture and avoids obstacles. The mopping capabilities of the robot are impressive. Rotating mop pads actually lift floors and scrub it, rather than just drag a pad across a surface. The mops are also cleaned and dried in the base station when needed.
This robot combo is easy to setup and use, and has a clear interface that walks you through the procedure. It also comes with a hand-vacuum that can be used to clean hard-to reach areas that the robot cannot reach. There are also two water tanks that are automatically filled or empty. It also comes with a variety of useful settings to fine-tune your cleaning preferences.
auto vacuum does excellent job of vacuuming, with strong suction that easily removes most of the debris, and even smaller pieces of dust that other robots struggle with. Its navigation capabilities are pretty solid as well, though it does sometimes get hung in the small carpets or area mats that I have in my house (which is something you can reduce by creating a virtual boundary in the app). The mopping capabilities are quite excellent, too, with a pair of spin mops that actually lift and scrub the floors, instead of simply dragging the pad across it. The mops are cleaned with heated water and dried in the base station when needed. Mops can also be replenished at the top of the station as required.
3. Dreame X40 Ultra
Dreame released the luxe X30 Ultra earlier this year and their new top-of-the-line robot mop and vacuum has more impressive features. It is a great cleaner, and it is easy to maintain. This makes it a contender for our list of the top robot vacuums and mop. Its superior mapping abilities, RGB AI smart detection, and an expanded side brush will ensure a thorough, customized clean is completed.
The X40 Ultra does an excellent job of vacuuming, picking up large and small particles from hard floors as well as carpets. It cleaned the dirtiest areas of our tests well, avoiding pet hairs and other messes. The sweeping power of the machine is enhanced by a sidebrush that automatically swings out in order to reach areas that are difficult to reach, and mop pads that run across baseboards.
Its navigation system is intelligent it can navigate narrow spaces and climbing the stairs without a hitch. It can move from one room to another without reversing direction, which is a handy feature for larger homes with many rooms. Its obstacle avoidance system is not as advanced than other models however, and tends to leave a wide space over obstacles, which can result in missed spots.
The app is streamlined, intuitive interface that should be easy to use for both new and experienced users. The app lets you schedule and manage cleanings, change mopping and suction power settings as well as view 3D and 2D maps, and much more. It can be operated through the app, Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri, allowing you to keep an eye on its progress from any location. You can even use the X40 Ultra's camera remotely to get real-time video supervision. However, you will require a reliable Wi-Fi connection to operate it via the app and external controls.
4. Roomba Q5 pro
Robot vacuums are excellent at picking up dirt and debris but they're not able to get every speck of dust. It is important to clean often, at least once a week. This is particularly important for dust that builds up in corners, on shelves, and in the crevices of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro, a 2-in-1 robot that vacuums and mops, is designed to accomplish this. It's easy to connect to your Wi-Fi at home network and integrates with Alexa and Apple Siri, making it an even more convenient addition to your cleaning routine.
The Q5 is a stripped-down version of the company's more pricier S-series models, including the top-of-the-line Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It has a similar LIDAR mapping sensor, but it saves cost by eliminating mopping functions and using a cheaper plastic body.
Although it's no longer able to clean your floors, the Q5 still offers the most impressive mopping and vacuum performance we've seen from a robotic in this price range. It has powerful 5500Pa suction and an auto-empty system so you don't have to manually empty the bin every time. It also comes with a smart application that lets you choose your floor's type and schedule cleanings, and an automatic water tank refill and wash system for hands-free operation.
Its mops also impress with their 2700Pa power to take on pet hair and dirt on carpets and hard flooring. The Q5 was among the few robots that we tested to not have a problem with high-pile area rugs and carpets. However, it did not pick up kitty-litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise as it doesn't include AI-powered obstacle-avoidance.
5. K10 Plus
K10 Plus is one of the quietest robovacs we have tested. It also utilizes a unique system to map your home this will allow it to enter the corners and tight spaces that other vacuums are unable to reach. The device also stores dust in a larger dustbin that means you have empty it less frequently. It also has washable filters which further reduces costs. This robot can detect carpets and increase suction if necessary. You can also mark areas you want the robot to avoid using the app.
