The Best Robot Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst for Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.
He reviews and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be a great option for those who want to remove mopping from their to-do lists. They are equipped with impressive mapping and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and they can even wash and refill their own mopping pads for a hands-off clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robotic vacuum that also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than the other models on this list making it easier to navigate through 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 navigation and object avoidance features I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It has a hefty 4600mAh battery that can last for up to 170-minutes when mopping and suction are set to standard mode (it is able to run longer in turbo). It can even return to the dock to top up its battery part way through cleaning.
It is very fast and does an excellent job of cleaning my two-bedroom apartment. It is able to automatic vacuum and mop carpeted rooms quickly and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways in just one motion. Its 8,000pa suction motor makes short work of picking up sand, dirt and pet hair. Carpet detection increases power automatically when it encounters rugs and the two side brushes help pull out dirt from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, isn't as impressive. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high speed and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scrubbing up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm sticks out a little more than other robots. This is helpful when you're trying to get into narrow corners or along baseboards. Those same front arms can be used to sweep larger pieces of debris, such as broken toys and fallen books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've used. It doesn't make as loud of a sound when mopping or vacuuming, and is quieter than the Narwal Freo X Ultra or RoboRock S7. The only drawback is that the S1 Pro must use a exclusive cleaning solution for mopping and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's simple to set up and works well however, this is something that you'll need to be aware of in case you're purchasing this vacuum for the sole purpose of it mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is a powerful cleaner with a variety of features.

Another notable feature is the customizable options available via apps. The Q Revo allows you to adjust the suction strength and select a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also adjust the number of passes it must make, which will determine how fast the device will move around your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to prevent damaging carpets and rugs.
The device comes with a expensive price, but is packed with a wide array of innovative features. It's crucial to note that it incurs regular costs, such as mopping supplies and maintenance. For example, the brushroll will need to be replaced after 300 hours or every six to 12 months. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads should be replaced every one to three month.

The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal option for busy professionals or anyone who wants to keep their home clean without spending too much time doing chores. It's a top-performing device, smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it easy to keep your home clean with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a two-in-one vacuum and mop. It is capable of vacuuming as well as mopping. It has two modules: a combined dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap into and out of position. Separate modules for vacuuming and mopping may appear a bit dated, but they do mean you don't have to worry about changing disposable bags or refueling the tank with water.
Our testers discovered that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its best feature was its precise floorplan map that it uses to draw an outline for cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app allows you to create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers to stop certain areas from being cleaned by mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a remarkable job at collecting pet hair. It was able to collect the majority of hair that shed by our cats and even got into the nooks and crevices of our stairs which other robots struggled. The noise levels were low and there were lovely jingles that signal that it was beginning and finishing its work.
The biggest flaws were its simplistic app and the need to switch between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app is not able to save multiple maps. This can be an issue if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a excellent choice for those who are looking for a smart device that can mop and vacuum.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive item in our review. However, it does have certain unique features that are worth a look. The X1 Omni's main draw is its enormous dock which doubles as a charging base as well as housing for two water tanks, a cleaning sink as well as the 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically eliminates.
The base has a few control buttons that let you manually start cleaning tasks, recall the robot or use the dock's auto-emptying procedure. Press two of the buttons to toggle a child lock, which is a nice option for parents concerned about children playing with the vacuum.
The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums, utilizes its camera to identify furniture and obstacles in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system can map your home 10 times faster than standard laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in recognising objects.
This can cause the X1 to become stuck if it gets entangled in a hazard, such as a power cable tangled over a rug. It won't function until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event however it was frustrating since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert on its application.
The X1 Omni cannot automatically switch from mopping mode to vacuuming mode during a cleaning session. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad but the mopping pad doesn't get cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.
On the bright side it's worth noting that the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuum that vacuums and mops thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who came up with its modern, sleek base and mopping pad apparatus. It's a big contrast to the utilitarian, black bases of competitors like Roborock and iRobot, and a welcome sight in a space that is dominated by bulky boxy models.
