1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro

The gunmetal and gloss black Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive mop and robot vacuum combos available. It uses lidar for navigation, creating maps of floors and rooms.

The S1 was able to map my downstairs quickly, which comprises linoleum flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms and also a carpet in the middle and a large area. It was able to drive close to walls and even across raised thresholds without any problems. However it was a bit difficult navigating down the stairs in one pass. The S1 also did a fantastic job of cleaning hard floors with its mop that moved smoothly on its flat side against the floor and lifting itself when it was near carpet or rug.

The S1's docking station automatically emptys its dust bin and refills its onboard water tank with clean, ozonated waters prior to each mopping session. The dock also provides an extra-deep cleaning solution to the water. The S1 water tank can be able to accommodate 12 cleaning robot mop and vacuum sessions, but it will differ based on how often you use the mop.

The S1 requires regular maintenance, just like any other 2-in-1 robots. In order to do this, you'll have to rinse out the dirty water tank occasionally to prevent it from clogging. You'll also need to clean the swivel wheel and sensors regularly to keep them from getting blocked by dirt or dust. Overall, the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.

Mopping capabilities are quite good with a pair of spinning mop heads that lift and scrub the floor, rather than just dragging the pad across it. The mops are also cleaned with heated water and dried in the base station when needed. The mops are also filled from the top of the base station when needed.

4. Roomba Q5 Pro

A robot vacuum does a great job of removing debris and dirt but it's not always able to be able to reach every particle of dust. It is important to clean frequently, every week. This is particularly important for dust that accumulates in corners, on shelves, and in crevices in your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop robot that was designed specifically for this purpose. It's easy to connect to your home Wi-Fi network, and is compatible with Alexa and Apple Siri, making it an even more practical addition to your cleaning routine.

The Q5 is an edgier version of the company's more pricier S-series models, including the top-of-the-line Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It is equipped with the same LIDAR mapping sensors, but it's less expensive because it doesn't come with mopping capabilities, and also has a plastic body.

The mops are also quite impressive, with 2700Pa of power to take on dust, dirt, and pet hair on both carpets and hard floors. The Q5 is one of the few robots we tested that didn't have any trouble with high-pile carpets and area carpets, but it didn't clean up kitty litter or cable tangles that's not a surprise considering it doesn't include AI-powered obstacle avoidance.
