The Best robot vacuum uk Robot Vacuum That Mops

Noah Pinsonnault works as a product analyst at Good Housekeeping's Home Care and Cleaning Lab.

He reviews and tests cleaning appliances, focusing on mopping and robot vacuum combos. Multitaskers are a great option for those who are looking to remove mopping from their list of things to do. They have impressive mapping capabilities and obstacles-avoiding capabilities, and some wash and refill their mopping pads to ensure a hands-free clean.

The Eufy S1 Pro

If you're looking for a robot vacuum that can also mop, this is the model to look for. It's smaller than the other models on this list, [Redirect-Meta-1] 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, provides some of my favorite navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in a robotic vacuum. It comes with a massive 4600mAh battery that lasts 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 its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.

It's extremely efficient and does an outstanding job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It vacuums the carpeted rooms extremely quickly and the hardwood floors in the kitchen, hallways, and living room in one go. Its 8,000pa suction motor is quick at picking up sand, dirt and pet hair. Carpet detection boosts power automatically when it comes in contact with carpets and the dual side brushes help draw out dirt from corners.

The mopping efficiency, while still impressive, is not as effective. The mop rotates quickly and utilizes 2.2lbs to clean dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm protrudes out a bit more than other robots. This is useful when you're trying to get into tight corners or along baseboards. The same front arms can be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and fallen books.

Another great feature is that the S1 Pro is one of the quietest robot vacuums and mop I've tried. It doesn't create the same amount of noise 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 proprietary cleaning solution for mopping, and is sold separately from the vacuum. It's simple to install and is effective however, this is something that you'll need to keep an eye on if you're buying this robot vacuum for the sole purpose of mopping.

The Roborock Q Revo

The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a range of features.

The device comes with an efficient cleaning system that integrates LiDAR sensor technology with an RGB camera. This enables it to map out the home and also identify furniture and other obstacles. It then uses this information to clean efficiently and effectively. This will ensure a thorough and consistent clean and is also raphome clean with minimal effort.

The Matrix Plus is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop, which means it can handle mopping and vacuuming. The robot is divided into two parts which include a dry bin and water tank that can be snapped out and in and a mopping module which is equipped with microfiber pads. It's a little old-fashioned to have separate modules for vacuuming and mopping however it does mean that you don't have to fret about changing out disposable bags or refilling the tank with water.

Our testers found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming as well as mopping. Its greatest feature was its precise map of your floorplan, which it uses to determine an outline for cleaning. This made it a breeze for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture, rugs and other obstacles. The app also gives you the option of setting "No-Go zones" as well as virtual barriers, which help to protect certain areas of your home from being swept with a mop.

We also discovered that the Matrix Plus did surprisingly well at picking up hair from pets. It was able capture some of the hair that sheds from our cats. It even got into some of the nooks and crannies of our stairs, where other robots have struggled. Its noise levels were fairly low and there were nice jingles to let you know that it was starting and getting its work done.

The app was too basic and you had to alter the modules each time you changed between mops and vacuuming. The app is not able to save multiple maps. This could be an issue if your home has a variety of floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for a smart robot that can perform both vacuuming and mopping.

The Yiko X1 Omni

The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that mops in our test, but it also has unique features that make it worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's main draw is its massive dock which doubles as the robot's charging base and housing for two 4-liter water tanks, a clean sink and a 2.5-liter dust bin that automatically emptys.

The base also has a number of buttons to control the system. These allow you to manually start a cleaning job or recall the robot or run the dock's auto-emptying process. Hold down two buttons to turn off the child lock. This is a great feature for parents who are concerned about their children playing with the vacuum.

The X1 Omni like other robotic vacuums, uses its camera to spot obstacles and furniture in its path. It will steer clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in finding objects.

The X1 can be prone to become stuck if it is entangled in an obstacle like a power cable draped over a rug. It won't function until you manually untangle it. This is a rare event, but frustrating nonetheless, since the X1 does not have an "stuck status" alert on its application.

Another potential downside is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes during a cleaning session. You'll have to manually swap between the two modes, which isn't a big deal aside from the fact that the mopping pads aren't washed and dried between use which could lead to mildew or mold.

On the positive side the X1 Omni is a beautiful-looking robot vacuum uk, thanks to the design team at Jacob Jensen (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who dreamed up its modern and sleek base as well as mopping pad. It's a huge contrast to the basic black bases of competitors like Roborock or iRobot. It's also an impressive sight in the market that is dominated by boxes.
