Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuums and mops can be customized with a specialized app to save the maps of your home setting cleaning schedules, and select mopping modes. They also allow you to alter suction power and fine-tune how much water and scrub action your mop makes use of.
A mapping function will help your robot navigate through rooms. An obstacle avoidance feature prevents it from running over wires, furniture, or stray toys. These are essential features for my house, filled with toys that are scattered about.
1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the flagship mop and vacuum cleaner, so it's a natural choice to be packed with features. It's able to both mop and sweep in one session and can raise its brushes and mop pads to prevent soft surfaces from getting too damp. It also can detect and avoid obstacles, thanks to the ability to identify pet toys, plants and other small objects.
The robot vacuum has a maximum suction power of 6,000 pascals, which is higher than any other robot vacuum we've tested to date. It also has PreciSense LiDAR Navigation to track its location, preventing it from getting stuck on a surface.
The mopping capabilities of the S8 Pro Ultra are also impressive. It can provide constant pressure to the pad that is more than 6 Newtons to give a thorough clean. It also has an automatic mop lifting system, which will lift the pad when it goes from laminate to tile hardwood, carpet and rugs, thereby avoiding soaking these types of soft surfaces.
Additionally, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying functions. The pad can be washed and then dried with the dock, and the dust bin is automatically emptied and returned to it. You can set it and forget about it. It is only necessary to refill the water tank, or change the dust bag every now and then.
robot vacuum cleaner of this is powered by a lithium-ion 5,200mAh battery. The S8 Pro Ultra ran on its normal vac- and mop-settings for about 160 minutes before beginning to run out of power and returned to its base to recharge. This is within the range of the 180 minutes Roborock claims, and is on par with other hybrids I've test.
This is a very robust and well-rounded product with the only drawback being the fact that it's expensive. But, the sheer number of features makes it a very tempting alternative for anyone who wishes to go away from their old stick vacuum and mops. We highly recommend this model if you can justify its cost.
2. Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra robot vacuum and mop is a premium combination. Its price is justified by its impressive feature set, which includes an impressive vacuuming capacity as well as two gyrating mops. It comes with an app-enabled smart controller and powerful obstacle-avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra is one of the most expensive robotic vacuum and mop sets available, at a recommended retail price of 999 euros. In my testing it was able to perform well in all areas of the home, removing 98.4 percent of debris from all floor types and managing to lift long hair with no knots. The mops also performed admirably and produced excellent results for cleaning with less effort than mid-range models. This was due to their rotational movement and a strong dose cleaning solution.
However, the L10S Ultra's real highlight is its docking station that is multi-functional. The dock empties its dustbin into a dirt bag, refills its water tank to enable the mopping function and even dries its mop pads for you. It also has an in-real-time system for detecting hazards and allows you to schedule regular cleaning sessions using its smart controls.
The L10S Ultra does not offer superior carpet debris removal performance when compared to the other hybrid vacuum mop I tried. Additionally the mops aren't capable at scrubbing away stubborn stains as those found in the top Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra's premium features, it requires regular maintenance. Its base station has to be cleaned out and the water tank and dust bag should be cleaned, emptied and dried regularly to prevent mildew and unpleasant odors. It is also important to note that the mop pads which are purchased separately, will need to be replaced periodically too.
With the L10S Ultra's pricey pricing and its extensive features I would highly recommend it to anyone with the money for it. If you're on a budget, I recommend a more basic model that will allow you to save money while still being able to enjoy hands-free cleaning at your home. It's worth noting that even it's true that the L10S Ultra is the best robot vacuum and mop you can find but its high cost and constant maintenance will eventually make it more of a wish rather than a requirement.
3. Eufy S1 Pro
If you're in search of a robot vacuum and mop that will pick up dirt and dust on your floors while taking care of wet mess look no further than the Eufy S1 Pro. This powerful robovac/mop combination is a mighty suction power of 8,000 Pa. It also has an enormous battery capacity that can be used for both mopping and vacuuming. And it is equipped with an excellent obstacle-avoidance system. It also comes with an automatic mop that cleans itself as it moves and makes the S1 Pro stand out from other models that need to return to their base station mid-cleaning to wash off the mop pad.
The S1 Pro uses a unique mopping system that is a big contrast to the microfiber pads and spinning discs that other robots. The roller is almost the entire length of the robot and it gets a constant supply of clean water that is filtered and ozonated from the dock. The roller scrubs the floor while collecting dirt. Any dry debris is removed using the side brushes, or swept into the front bumper. The S1 Pro then takes the mop water into its base station, where it is sucked up by the tank's heating elements, and is poured into a larger storage bin. The onboard tank is able to hold a large amount of water and can take on up to a dozen mopping sessions before rushing out.
The S1 Pro comes ready to use right out of the box as do other robotic vacuums and mops. It will need to be filled with clean water, but this is simple to do by cleaning the dock. You can also add cleaning solution to the dock, if you prefer to have the option of using your own brand of cleaner. If you decide to opt for this feature you'll have to purchase the cleaning solution from Eufy which is more expensive than other robot brands that permit you to use your personal cleaner of choice.
As with most robots that are available, the S1 Pro did well in the area of coverage and navigation efficiency. It was fast to map a room and it easily navigated around furniture. The only issue is that it got stuck a couple times on larger pile carpets and rugs in my tests however this can be improved when the software is upgraded. The S1 Pro is an all-in-one robot that has a lot of functionality at a reasonable cost.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry level vacuum and mop, but it still has some outstanding features. Its multi-function dock drains the robot's dirtbag and refills its water tanks, while washing and sanitizing mop pads as they go. The mopping system is able to clean a large area before returning to its dock. The vacuum's suction power is ideal for removing pet hair and other debris that accumulates on carpets.
The software that runs the appliance is quite dense, offering a wide choice of options for customizing the cleaning process. You can choose to manually start the full map and then clear everything that's been that is mapped by the device or you can choose individual rooms, expandable zones or even a routine you've created. There are many mopping options that include SmartPlan -an algorithm that uses the sensors of the mops to find the most efficient way to tidy your home as it maps the area.
Like all Roborock models we've examined The Qrevo is a great performer in our tests. Its navigation system is solid, mapping rooms quickly and cleaning them in a neat fashion. Its 'Normal' pathing setting does a great job of covering a space, with no major gaps or missing areas. Reactive Tech's hazard avoidance function works well, but it's not as advanced as the color camera systems on the Qrevo Master and the S8 Pro Ultra. It is able to detect dangers like carpets with thick padding, but may not be able detect smaller objects such as electrical wires and rug tassels.
The one glaring flaw of this model is the absence of a mop after vacuum option, which could be a problem for those who spend a lot of time vacuuming before cleaning their robot. Fortunately, there's a simple workaround: the app includes the option to "clean up" at the end of every vacuuming session. This allows you to use the vacuum's mopping capability to get rid of the last remnants of debris and dust that you've left behind from the vacuuming. This is a great feature that can help this robot clean a little better than its less expensive competitors.
