Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos Robot vacuums and mops have become more capable, acing our tests of cleaning and tackling various floor types. Find models that let you choose from multiple modes, use their charging dock to self-empty, and clean up stairs. A lot of the top models are compatible with your smartphone. Look for an app that lets you save maps, set schedules and select cleaning options. 1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro The black and gloss gunmetal Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is one of most impressive robot vacuums and mop combos available. It uses lidar for navigation making maps of rooms and floors. When I tested the S1, it was quick to identify our downstairs, which has laminate flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms, along with medium-pile carpeting and a large area rug. It was able to drive right up to walls without crashing into them and even managed to drive across thresholds for rooms that are raised without problem, but it sometimes struggled to get down the stairs in one move. 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 then lifting its own weight when it reaches carpet or rug. The docking station on the S1 automatically emptys its dust bin and refills its water tank onboard with clean, ozonated waters prior to every mopping session. The dock adds a deep-cleaning solution for the water. The S1 water tank can hold enough for 12 cleaning sessions, but this will differ dependent on how often you use the mop. The S1 requires regular maintenance, just like other 2-in-1 robots. It is necessary to regularly wash out the dirty tank to prevent it from becoming blocked. It is also necessary to clean your sensor and swivel wheel frequently to avoid them becoming blocked by dirt or dust. Overall the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos. 2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete This all-in-1 robot vacuum and mop combo from Ecovacs is a powerful option to meet your cleaning needs. The robot vacuum is rated at 8700Pa of suction and comes with a number of innovative features, including full home mapping, voice control, and smart path-planning to avoid obstacles and cleans furniture. Its mopping ability is impressive. Rotating mops actually lift the floor and scrub it instead of simply drag a pad across a surface. Mops can also be cleaned and dried at the base station if needed. The robot comes with a simple interface that guides you throughout the process. It comes with an electric hand vacuum that can be recharged for those areas that the robot isn't able to reach as well as two water tanks that are automatically emptied and filled when required. It also has a number of useful settings to fine-tune your cleaning preferences. The Deebot X2 Combo Complete does a good job at vacuuming, with a strong suction that effortlessly picks up most debris and even the smaller pieces of dust that other robots struggle with. Its navigation capabilities are quite good, though it can get stuck on small area mats and rugs in my home (which you can reduce by creating virtual boundaries within the app). The mopping feature is pretty good as well, with two spinning mops that actually lift and scrub floors, instead of just dragging the pad over it. The mops are cleaned with heated water and dried in the base station as needed. Mops are also refilled from the top of the base station when required. 3. Dreame X40 Ultra Dreame's X30 Ultra robot vacuum and mop was released earlier this year. However, their latest flagship model has even more impressive features. It has fantastic cleaning results and is simple to maintain. This makes it a contender for our list of the top robot vacuums and mop. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart recognition, and an extended side brush guarantee an efficient, customized clean. The X40 Ultra does an excellent job of vacuuming, picking up large and fine particles from both hard floors and carpets. It also cleaned our tests' most filthy areas well, and keeping pet hairs from getting caught in knots and other dirt. The sweeping capability of the machine is enhanced by a sidebrush which automatically moves out to reach areas that are difficult to reach, and a mop pad that extends along baseboards. Its navigation is nimble, navigating narrow spaces and climbing stairs without missing a beat. It can move from one area to another without changing direction which is a great feature for homes with many rooms. Its obstacle avoidance system is less advanced than some competitors, and leaves a huge margin around obstacles. This can result in missing spots. The app is streamlined, intuitive interface that should be easy to use for both new and experienced users. The app allows you to schedule and manage cleanings, adjust suction power and mopping settings as well as view 3D and 2D maps, and much more. You can control it through the app, Alexa or Google Assistant. You can even tap into the X40 Ultra's camera remotely for live video surveillance. You'll require a reliable WiFi connection to use the app and external controls. 4. Roomba Q5 pro A robot vacuum can do a fantastic job of picking up debris and dirt, but it can't always reach every last piece of dust. It's important to vacuum 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's simple 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 daily cleaning routine. The Q5 is a stripped down version of the more expensive S-series models from the company, such as the top-of-the-line Roborock S8 maxV ultra. It is equipped with a similar LIDAR mapping sensor, but it saves cost by eliminating mopping and using a lower-cost plastic body. Although it's no longer able to mop floors, the Q5 still offers the most impressive mopping and vacuum performance we've seen on a robot at this price. It's got a powerful suction power of 5500Pa and an auto-empty system, so you don't have to manually empty the bin every time. It also has a clever application that lets you choose your floor type and schedule cleanings, as well as an automatic water tank refill and wash system to allow hands-free operation. Its mops also impress with their 2700Pa power to take on pet hair and dirt on carpets and hard flooring. The Q5 was one of the few robots that we tested to not have problems with high-pile rugs and carpets. However, it could not handle kitty litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise, since it does NOT have AI-powered obstacle-avoidance features. 5. K10 Plus K10 Plus is the quietest robovac we have ever tested. automated vacuum uses an innovative mapping system that helps it reach tight corners and corners that other vacuums can't. The device also stores dust in a bigger dustbin which means you need empty it less frequently. Furthermore, it comes with washable filters that further lower the costs associated with using the device. The robot is able to detect carpets and increase suction if necessary. The app allows you to mark areas that you want it to avoid, which is a nice feature.
