11 Ways To Fully Redesign Your Robot Vacuum And Mop

Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos

Robot vacuums and mops are becoming more efficient, passing our cleaning tests and tackling various floor types. Choose models that allow users to select between different modes, including self-emptying and clean stairs.

Many of the best automatic vacuum models are compatible with smartphones. Look for an app that allows you to save maps, schedules and select cleaning modes.

1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro

The gunmetal and gloss black Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combinations available. It uses lidar to navigate, create maps of floors and rooms (even multiple levels), and works with the free Eufy Clean application that lets you set schedules and customize the S1's behavior.

When I tested the S1, it was able to identify the downstairs area, which has linoleum flooring in the kitchen-diner and bathrooms, plus carpeting with a medium-pile and an area rug. It was able to drive close to walls and even cross raised thresholds without any problems. However it was a bit difficult traversing the stairs in one pass. The S1 performed admirably in cleaning hard floors. The mop sped along on its flat side and swung up when it reached carpets or carpets.

Prior to each mopping session the docking station on the S1 automatically emptys its dust bin and refills its water tank onboard with clean ozonated filtered water. The dock provides a deep-cleaning solution for the water. The S1 water tank can be able to accommodate 12 cleaning sessions, but this will vary based on how often you use the mop.

Like all 2-in-1 robots, the S1 requires regular maintenance to ensure it is operating efficiently. In order to do this, you'll have to wash the water tank that is dirty regularly to prevent it from clogging. Also, you'll need to clean your swivel wheel and sensors regularly to avoid them getting blocked by dirt or dust. Overall, the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.

2. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo Complete

Ecovacs All-in-one robotic vacuum and mop is an effective solution for your cleaning requirements. The Ecovacs robot vacuum has 8700Pa of suction and comes with many innovative features, including full home mapping, voice control and smart path-planning that avoids obstacles and cleans around furniture. Its mopping capability is remarkable, with mops rotating that actually lift and scrub the floor rather than simply moving the pad across it. The mops are also cleaned and dried at the base station, as needed.

The robot comes with an easy-to-use interface that guides you through the process. It includes a hand vacuum that recharges to reach those areas the robot can't reach, as well as two water tanks that are automatically emptied and replenished whenever needed. It has a variety of settings that can be used to fine-tune your cleaning preferences.

The Deebot X2 Combo Complete is a good vacuum cleaner. It has a powerful suction which can easily pick up dirt and other debris that other robots that vacuum and mop have difficulty with. Its navigation capabilities are solid as well, though it can sometimes get caught up on the tiny area mats or rugs that I have in my house (which is something you can control by creating a virtual border within the application). The mopping feature is pretty excellent, too, with two spinning mops that actually lift and scrub the floors, as opposed to just dragging the pad over it. The mops can be cleaned with hot water and dried in the basestation whenever required. The mops are also replenished at the top of the station if they are required.

3. Dreame X40 ultra

Dreame launched the luxurious X30 Ultra earlier this year and their new top-of-the-line robot vacuum and mop has even more impressive features. It delivers outstanding cleaning results and is simple to maintain. This makes it a worthy contender for our top list of mops and robot vacuums. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart detection and a larger side brush ensure an efficient, custom-designed clean is accomplished.

The X40 Ultra does an excellent job of vacuuming and removing large and small particles from hard floors as well as carpets. It cleaned the dirtiest places of our tests efficiently while avoiding pet hairs and other mess. The sweeping performance is augmented by an additional side brush that automatically extends to reach hard-to-reach corners, and an extending mop pad that can be placed alongside baseboards.

Its navigation system is intelligent it can navigate narrow spaces and climbing stairs without missing a beat. It can go from one room to another without needing to reverse the direction. This is useful for homes with a lot of rooms. Its obstacle avoidance is not as advanced than the ones of other competitors and leaves a large margin around obstacles. This can lead to missing spots.

The app's interface is intuitive and well-organized. It should be easy to use for novice and experienced users. The app lets you schedule and manage cleanings, change mopping and suction power settings, view 2D and 3D maps, and more. It is accessible via the app, Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri and allows you to keep an eye on its progress from anywhere. You can even remotely control the X40 Ultra camera for real-time monitoring. You'll require a stable Wi-Fi connection to operate it through the app and external controls.

4. Roomba Q5 Pro

A robot vacuum does an excellent job of picking up debris and dirt but it's not always able to get every last particle of dust. This is why it's important to make use of your regular vacuum once a week, especially to pick up dust in corners and on shelves and in the corners of your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop robot that was designed to accomplish exactly that. It's easy to connect it to your home Wi-Fi network and works with Alexa and Apple Siri, making it an even more useful addition to your routine of cleaning.

The Q5 is an edgier version of the company's more expensive S-series models. It includes the flagship Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It uses the same LIDAR mapping sensors, but it is cheaper because it doesn't have mopping capabilities and has a plastic body.

Even though it's not able to mop floors, the Q5 still has some of the most impressive mopping and vacuum performance we've seen on a robot vacuum cleaner best in this price range. It features a powerful suction of 5500Pa and an auto-empty system, so you don't have to empty the bin manually every time. It comes with a smart app that lets you schedule cleaning and choose the floor type. It also features an automatic water tank filling and washing system for hands-free operation.

The mops also stand out with its 2700Pa capacity to take on pet hair and dirt on carpets as well as hard flooring. The Q5 was among the few robots that we tested did not show a problem with high-pile area carpets and rugs. However, it could not handle kitty litter or cable tangles. This isn't too surprising because it doesn't contain AI-powered obstacle avoidance.

5. K10 Plus

K10 Plus is the quietest robot vacuum we've ever tested. It also uses a unique mapping system that lets it reach corners and tight places that other vacuums cannot. This device also collects dust in a bigger dustbin which means you have empty it less frequently. It also has washable filters which reduces the cost. This robot can detect carpets, and boost suction when needed. You can also mark areas you want to be able to keep from using the app.
