The best automatic vacuum cleaner robot vacuums That mop [morphomics.science] Vacuum That Mops
Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on robot vacuums and mopping combos. Multitaskers can be ideal for those who want to remove mopping from their list of things to do. They are equipped with impressive mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance capabilities, and some wash and refill their mopping pads to give themselves a hands-off clean.
The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should pick if you are looking for an automatic vacuum and mop robot vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than the other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver in 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's powered by a 4600mAh battery that can last up to 170 mins when cleaning and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer on turbo). It can even return to its dock to replenish its battery during the cleaning.
It's efficient and does a great job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It is able to vacuum carpeted rooms quickly, and hardwood floors in the living room, kitchen and hallways with only one sweep. Its suction motor of 8,000pa is quick at picking up dirt, droppings, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it comes in contact with carpets and the two side brushes help pull out debris from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as effective. The rotating mop spins at a high velocity and it pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly cleaning up dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a little more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into tight corners or along baseboards. The front arms can also be used to scoop up larger objects like books and broken toys.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mop and vacuums I've used. It is quieter and doesn't make more noise when mopping or vacuuming. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it has to use a mopping solution that is proprietary and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and works well however, it's something you'll need to be aware of if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from most robot vacuums that mops in its class. It is equipped with a broad array of features that make it an ideal choice for homeowners who want a highly effective, versatile, and customizable cleaning machine.
The device is equipped with a powerful and impressive cleaning system that combines LiDAR sensors with an RGB camera to map your home and detect furniture and other obstacles. This information can be used to clean efficiently and efficiently. This results in an effective, consistent cleaning which is also relatively quick.
In terms of mopping, Q Revo's DuoRoller mop pads can reach an array of surfaces. This includes baseboards, corners and other difficult to reach places. They also have a stretchy side brush that extends to reach the floor near walls and other fixtures. The mop pads can also be washable and dry to eliminate odors and stop buildup.
App-based customization is yet another noteworthy feature. The Q Revo lets you alter the suction level and select a back-and forth or slightly random pattern. You can also set the number of passes it should make, which will determine how fast the device will traverse your home. You can also choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
The device comes with a high price tag but has a variety of smart features. It is important to remember, however, that the device will incur recurring expenses in the form mopping supplies and regular maintenance. For instance brushrolls need to be replaced every six to 12 months or after 300 hours. The filter will need to be cleaned after 150 hours, and the mop pad should be replaced every one to three months.
This robotic vacuum cleaner has a high Amazon rating and comes with many physical automation features. It has an energy button that doubles as a general 'Clean button as well as a Home button that sends it back to its base station after finishing its cleaning session. It also has a multi-functional dock that automatically empty the dustbin and refills its water tank to mop and washes and dry its mop pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus
If you're a professional with a lot of work or someone who wants an organized home that doesn't require hours doing chores then the Shark Matrix Plus is a solid choice. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that allows you to keep your home clean with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, that is, it can do mopping and vacuuming. The robot vacuum with mop comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping system with microfiber pads that snap into and out of the way. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean that you don't have to worry about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.
Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its best feature is its precise floorplan map, which it utilizes when cleaning. The Matrix Plus was able to navigate effortlessly through rugs, furniture and other obstacles. The app lets you create 'No-Go Zones' as well as virtual barriers that prevent certain areas from being cleaned by mopping.
The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of picking up hair from pets. It was able capture an enormous amount of hair shed by our cats and even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots struggled. It was fairly quiet and even had some nice jingles that indicated when it was beginning or finished its work.
Its biggest drawbacks were its simplistic app and the requirement to swap between the modules to switch between mopping and vacuuming. The app can't contain multiple maps, which can be a hassle for homes with multiple floors. The Matrix Plus robot is a ideal choice for people who want a smart device that can vacuum and mop.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni robot vacuum is the most expensive in our review. However, it does have certain unique features that make it worth looking into. The X1 Omni's biggest draw is its huge dock, which serves as the robot's charging base and the housing for two water tanks, a clean sink as well as an automatic vacuum and mop 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically emptys.
The base also comes with a set of buttons to control the system. These allow you to manually start cleaning, recall the robot, or start the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to toggle the child lock, which is a nice touch for parents worried about children playing with the vacuum.
Like other robotic vacuums, the X1 Omni uses its camera to spot furniture and obstacles in its path, and then avoid them. True Mapping 2.0 navigation maps your home up to four times faster than laser detection systems.
This can cause the X1 to get stuck if it gets caught in a hazard, such as a power cable tangled over a rug. It will not work until you untangle it manually. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, because the X1 doesn't have an "stuck status" alert on its app.
Another issue that could be a problem is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during the cleaning process. You'll have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad but the mopping pad isn't cleaned or dried between uses. This can lead to mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed the sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a big contrast to the utilitarian, all-black bases used by competitors like Roborock and iRobot and is a refreshing sight in a space which is dominated by clunky boxy models.
