The best robotic mop and vacuum Robot Hoover

The best automatic vacuum robot hoover can vacuum and mop without needing your attention. It leaves your floors spotless. Its low cost and top-of-the-line features (such as dirt detection) are a plus.

Make sure to check your robot's brushes regularly for tangled debris as well as hair. Wash them if needed. Some models will automatically empty their onboard dust bin into a larger bin in the base, which decreases the amount of fine dust released into the air.

1. Roomba Q5 Pro

The Q5 Pro and its sibling, the more expensive Q7 Max Series, are among the most powerful robot vacuums we've test. They are equipped with motors that are top of the quality and can suction up to 5,500 Pascals. Like other top iRobot models (including the top pick), they use intelligent mapping technology to create precise floor plans and eliminate household obstacles such as cords and furniture legs. They also come with a feature called carpet boost which boosts the robot's power when it spots an abundance of dirt on the carpet, allowing it cleaned up quickly.

The Q5 and Q7 Max Series both scored extremely well in our tests of floors with no carpet They are also adept in removing hair from dogs. There are some issues, however, that prevent them from being our top option. One of the weaknesses of the Q5 is its navigation system doesn't include AI-powered obstacle avoidance. It's thus susceptible to become stuck on socks and shoes, and it couldn't navigate densely packed rooms very well in our tests. It also doesn't have cameras that let it see the corners of a room.

It's still a good deal particularly if your home or office has lots of unfinished floors and you're looking to save money. It's also extremely quiet and works while you are at work or at school. The only thing it lacks that you won't find in the pricier iRobot Roomba X30 is edge-to-edge vacuuming on floors that aren't clean. It's also less effective at mopping, relying on disposable wet wipes that don't hold on well and aren't able to deal with dried-on debris. The Q5 does have a self-emptying dock, though. And, if you have to, you can switch the mopping pad to dry ones in just a few minutes.

2. iRobot Roomba

The iRobot Roomba X30 packs impressive vacuuming and mopping capabilities into an elegant, compact package. Its smart cleaning maps and nimble navigation make it easy to clean, and effective in tackling larger particles like pet hair. It also features an impressive suction system and self-emptying bin. It's the best robot cleaner robot hoover for carpets, although it isn't as efficient as some of its competitors in deep cleaning.

This high-performance vacuum and mops utilizes sensors to avoid obstacles and pet waste. It also learns the layout of your home over time and offer more efficient cleaning. The app allows you to modify zones and alter the cleaning schedule. It comes with a battery life that is comparable to other models.

If the X30 Ultra is in a carpeted space, you can tell it to pull back and extend its mops. This will help prevent cross contamination. Its flex arm can also be used to reach under furniture with low levels and along baseboards. It's not as efficient on the washboard as our other Editors' Choice Picks, the Ecovacs Ozmo N8Pro+ and the iRobot Combo j9+.

During testing during testing, the X30 Ultra was the fastest robot vacuum/mop in the market to clean an entire home, and it did so with 66 percent of its battery left. It also did a good job of cleaning a mix of rooms and floors with mixed flooring types, including some area carpets. Its obstacle detection was top-notch and it swiftly eluded fake dog turds, socks, shoes, and bundles of cables.

It's a little more expensive than the iRobot Combo v9+ and iRobot Roomba j9+, however, it comes with superior suction, an onboard dustbin that automatically empties into its base, and also supports voice commands using Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. It can clean the floor even after it has vacuumed. This is a feature we haven't seen before on other robot vacuum/mop combination.

3. iRobot Roomba X40

This robot vacuum and mop combination features a sleek, circular design that looks more like a regular Roomba model than the boxy models of the rivals. It's one of our most appealing looking robot vacuums. iRobot’s latest flagship model is also among its most advanced. It features advanced features, like Enhanced Dirt Detection as well as future compatibility (another company's robot that can wash mop pads autonomously).

It's also the only robot vacuum/mop to score the perfect 10/10 out of 10 in our tests. This is thanks to a mix of high-tech sensors including a structured light system, camera and multiple lasers. The X40 Ultra was the only robot we tested that could fill and empty its basestation in a self-contained manner. It also boasted an industry-leading suction of 12,000Pa and self-cleaning mop mops.

The X40 is, like the other iRobot products, is easy to use. It comes with an intuitive mobile application interface, and it integrates with Amazon Alexa and Apple HomeKit. The only downside is that the X40 is still a noisy unit. This can be a concern in the mornings prior to work or at night when you are trying to sleep.

It's also a bit expensive, although it's not as expensive as the Ecovacs Omni or the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra, both of which are equally capable and look better. If you're willing with a little more noise and a little more cost, this is a very capable two-in-one that should please almost everyone.

iRobot L20 Ultra

The L20 Ultra is a top-of-the-range robot vacuum and mop, with many advanced features that will let you forget about your chores. The L20 Ultra is a hands-free cleaning device, similar to Ecovacs top-of-the-line X2 Omni or Roborock's S8 Pro Ultra. It comes with a multi-function dock that will automatically emptys the bin of the vacuum, refills the water tank, and washes and drys mop pads.

The smart robot makes use of an array of LIDAR and structured light to draw out the floor plan and detect obstacles, navigating more intelligently than its top rivals. It also has a front mounted camera that can detect hazards in real-time but this wasn't 100% reliable in our tests and could be confused with power cords or obstructions.

Its vacuum cleaner has an maximum suction of 7,000 Pascals which is more than enough to complete the task. It also comes with "Intelligent Dirt Detection", that regulates the amount of time the vacuum works and also adjusts the frequency of cleaning for different areas of your home in accordance with the degree of dirt they are.

If you have a bigger home, you should consider choosing a model that has spot or zone cleaning mode. This allows you to inform the robot of which area of your home needs to be cleaned by using the app or voice control. If you have a lot of furniture, a stairway mode is also a good option. For families that are busy, a recharge function and resume feature that allows your robot hoover and mop vacuum to resume where it left off could be extremely useful.

iRobot RX3

The RX3 is more advanced than the price suggests. It vacuums well and was able to remove 55% of debris in our tests. (It was second to the Roomba Q5 Pro). It also mops using one pad, which uses an oscillating motion robots that vacuum and mop cleans better than most of the other robot mop cleaners we've tested. It's also highly self-sufficient, with a fully-featured application, and a self emptying base that is washable.

The well-designed iRobot app guides you through an initial mapping run that gathers information about your floorplan as well as any "no-go" areas you set on the map. It can be used to design cleaning schedules, or to set up a spot-clean. You can also use it to rank your most filthy areas for better performance. The app also gives access to a variety of features, such as seasonal suggestions, custom maps, and advanced settings for your cleaning.

It also has the ability to reach corners and under furniture more easily because its shape is more rectangular. It also has a powerful suction of 8,000 Pascal suction and combs with intelligent technology for pet hair. You can also set up a spot-clean that thoroughly cleans an area.

The Miele Scout RX3 Home Vision HD is a sleeker and more affordable alternative to the iRobot Roomba. It's got a more attractive, Dolce & Gabbana-esque design and its twin cameras look like cute eyes. It is great at vacuuming, however it is more likely to get stuck on low thresholds. It is also louder than other top robot vacuums that we've test. It also has a less intuitive app and a small base station that doesn't double as an emptying bin.
