Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos
Robot vacuums and mops are becoming more efficient, passing our cleaning tests and tackling a variety of floor types. Choose models that allow you to choose between multiple modes, self-empty and clean stairs.
Many of the best models work with your smartphone. Look for an app that allows you to save schedules, maps and choose cleaning modes.
1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
Eufy's gunmetal-and-gloss black Omni S1 Pro is one of the most impressive robot vacuum and mop combinations on the market. It uses lidar for navigation and creates maps of rooms and floors.
When I tested the S1 It was quick to map the downstairs area, which has laminate flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms, plus carpeting of medium-pile as well as a large area rug. It was able to drive right up to walls without hitting them, and was able to drive across raised room thresholds with no issue, though it occasionally had trouble navigating down stairs in a single step. The S1 also did an excellent job cleaning hard floors, with its mop driving smoothly on the flat side against the floor and then lifting itself when it was near carpet or rugs.
The docking station of the S1 automatically empties its dust bin and refills its onboard water tank with clean, ozonated water before every mopping session. The dock also includes a cleaning solution in the water for deep cleaning. The S1's water tank can hold enough water for about twelve cleaning sessions before needing to be empty, but this can vary based on how often you use the mop.
Like all 2-in-1 robots the S1 requires regular maintenance to ensure that it's operating efficiently. You'll need to periodically rinse out the tank that has been contaminated to prevent it from becoming blocked. Also, you'll need to clean your swivel wheel and sensors regularly to prevent them from getting clogged up with dust or dirt. Overall the S1 is easy to maintain, particularly compared to other models which require more effort to maintain.
2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete
This all-in-1 robot mop and vacuum combo from Ecovacs is a reliable option to meet your cleaning needs. Its robot vacuum has 8700Pa suction power, and comes with many advanced features like voice control and smart path scheduling that cleans furniture and eliminates obstacles. Its mopping capability is impressive, with rotating mops that actually lift and scrub the floor, instead of simply drag the pad across it. The mops can be cleaned and dried at the base station if needed.
This robot combo has a simple interface that guides you through the process. It also includes a hand vacuum that can be used to clean hard-to reach areas that the robot cannot reach. There are two water tanks that are automatically emptied or refilled. It comes with a range of useful settings that allow you to fine tune your cleaning preferences.
The Deebot X2 Combo Complete does excellent job of vacuuming, with strong suction that easily picks up all kinds of debris, including the smaller bits of dust that other robots struggle with. Its navigation capabilities are pretty good, too, even though it does sometimes get hung in the small rug or area mats I have in my home (which is something you can mitigate by creating a virtual border within the app). Its mopping capabilities are also excellent with a pair of spinning mop heads that can lift and scrub the floor instead of simply moving 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 required.
3. Dreame X40 Ultra
Dreame released the luxe X30 Ultra earlier this year, but their new flagship robot mop and vacuum comes with more impressive features. It boasts fantastic cleaning results and hands-off maintenance which makes it a strong contender for our top mop and robot vacuum list. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart recognition and a longer side brush guarantee a thorough, custom-designed clean.
The X40 Ultra vacuums well, getting rid of both large and fine debris. It is equally effective on carpets and hard floors. It cleaned the dirtiest places of our tests efficiently by avoiding pet hairs as well as other dirt. The sweeping power is enhanced by an additional side brush that automatically moves out to tackle difficult-to-reach corners, as well as an extended mop pad that can be placed alongside baseboards.
Its navigation is intelligent, navigating narrow spaces and negotiating stairways without missing a step. It can move from one room to another without having to reverse direction it is a useful feature for larger homes with several rooms. Its obstacle avoidance system is not as advanced than other models, however, and tends to leave a thick distance over obstacles, which can result in missed spots.
Its app has a streamlined and intuitive interface that will be user-friendly for both new and experienced users. The app lets you schedule and control cleanings. You can also adjust suction power, mop settings and view 2D and 3-D maps. You can control it through the app, Alexa or Google Assistant. You can even remotely control the X40 Ultra camera for real-time monitoring. However, you will require a stable Wi-Fi connection to operate it via the app as well as external controls.
4. Roomba Q5 pro
Robot vacuums are great in removing dirt and debris but they can't reach all dust. It's essential to clean your home frequently, every week. This is especially true for dust that collects in corners, on shelves and in the crevices of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro, a 2-in-1 robot that vacuums as well as mop, is made to accomplish this. It is easy to connect to your home WiFI network and it works with Alexa or Apple Siri.
The Q5 is a stripped-down version of the more expensive S-series models from the company, which includes the top-of-the-line Roborock S8 maxV ultra. It uses the same LIDAR mapping sensors, but it's less expensive because it doesn't come with mopping capabilities and has a plastic body.
Despite losing the ability to clean your floors, the Q5 still has some of the best vacuum and mopping performance we've seen from a robot in this price range. It has a suction power of 5500Pa and an automatic-empty system, so you don't have to empty the bin by hand each time. It also comes with a smart app that lets you select your floor type and schedule cleanings. It also has an automatic water tank refill and wash system that allows hands-free operation.
Its mops are also awe-inspiring, with 2700Pa of power to take on dust, dirt and pet hair on both hard floors and carpets. The Q5 was among the few robots that we tested that did not have a problem with high-pile area carpets and rugs. However, it could not remove kitty-poop or cable tangles. robotic hoovers www.robotvacuummops.uk isn't surprising as it doesn't include AI-powered obstacle-avoidance.
5. K10 Plus
K10 Plus is one of the quietest robot vacuums we have tested, it also has a unique method to map your home, which really helps it get into corners and tight spaces that other vacuums cannot reach. This device also collects more dust in a larger bin, so you don't have to empty it as often. It also has washable filters, which can further cut costs. The robot is also able to detect carpets and increase suction if needed. You can also mark off areas you would like to keep out of the app.
