Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
Most robot vacuum-mop combos can be customized with an application that allows you to save the maps of your home, set cleaning schedules and select mopping modes. You can also alter the suction power, as well as the amount of water the mop is using.
A mapping feature can help your robot navigate through rooms and obstacles, while an obstacle avoidance function will stop it from hitting wires, furniture or other pet toys. These are essential features to have in my home, which is filled with strewn-about toys.
1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the top-of-the-line vacuum and mop, is packed with features. It can mop and sweep simultaneously, and even lift its brushes or mop pads to ensure that soft surfaces don't get wet. It can also see and avoid obstacles, thanks to the ability to recognize pets plants, small objects.
The robot vacuum's maximum suction power is 6 000 pascals. This is higher than any vacuum we've examined to date. It also comes with PreciSense LiDAR Navigation, which tracks its location, preventing it from becoming stuck on objects.
The mopping capabilities of the S8 Pro Ultra are also impressive. It can continuously apply pressure to the pad that is more than 6 Newtons to give a thorough clean. It also comes with mop lifter technology that will lift the pad automatically when it transitions between tile and laminate, hardwood and carpet or rugs, to avoid soaking soft surfaces.
In addition, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying capabilities. The pad can be used for rinsing and heat-drying within the dock. The dust bin will automatically empty before returning to the dock. This means that you can leave it in place and forget it, only needing to replace the dust bag or refill the water tank on occasion.
All of this is powered by a lithium-ion 5,200mAh battery. The S8 Pro Ultra ran on its standard mop and vac-settings for about 160 minutes before it started to run out of power and returned to its base to recharge. This is not far off of the 180-minute time that Roborock claims and is comparable with other hybrids I've tested.
This is a highly robust and well-rounded product with its only downsides being the fact that it's expensive. But, the sheer number of features makes it a very appealing choice for anyone looking to get rid of their old stick vacuums and mops. If you can afford the hefty price tag, we highly recommend checking this one out.
2. Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra robot vacuum and mop is a premium combination. The price is justified by the powerful features, including a large vacuuming capability and two mop heads that gyrate. It also includes a smart, app-enabled controller and a mighty obstacle avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra is one of the most expensive robotic vacuums and mop sets available at a recommended retail price of 999 euros. In my tests, it performed admirably across the house. It was able to eliminate 98.4 percent of the debris on all types of floors and managed to lift long hair without getting caught in. The mops also performed admirably with excellent cleaning results with less effort than mid-range models. This was thanks to their rotational motion and a strong dose cleaning solution.
The L10S Ultra's most significant selling point is its innovative multifunctional docking station. The dock emptys its dustbin into dirt bag, then refills its water tank for mopping, and dry the mop pads for you. It is equipped with a real-time danger detection system, and its sophisticated controls allow you to schedule periodic cleaning sessions.
The L10S Ultra does not offer the best performance in removing carpet debris in comparison to the other hybrid vacuum mop I tried. In addition, its mops aren't as adept at removing staining that is as strong as those in the top Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra's numerous high-end features, it still requires regular maintenance and care. The base station must be emptied and the water tank and dust bag must be emptied, cleaned and dried on a regular basis to avoid mildew and unpleasant odors. It is also important to keep in mind that the mop pads, that are bought separately, will need to be replaced periodically too.
I would recommend the L10S Ultra to anyone with the money. For those who are on a smaller budget, I suggest considering an easier model that will allow you to save money while enjoying hands-free cleaning at your home. It's worth noting that even the L10S Ultra is the best robotic vacuum and mop combination you can find however, its cost and constant maintenance will ultimately make it more of a desire than a need.
3. Eufy S1 Pro
Eufy S1 Pro is the robot vacuum and mop that you need to clean up messes and get rid of dirt from your floors. This high-powered mop and robot vacuum combo comes with an impressive 8,000 Pa of suction power, an impressively large battery that can be used for mopping and vacuuming and top-quality obstacle-avoiding. It has a mop with a roller that is self-cleaning, making it stand out from models which require you to return to the base station to wash the mop pad.
The S1 Pro has a unique mopping mechanism that is distinct from the spinning discs and microfibre pads of other robots. The roller covers the entire width of the robot, and it receives a constant supply of fresh, ozonated filtered water from the dock. When it turns, the roller scrubs your floors while soaking up dirt, and any dry debris is removed by the side brushes or swept away into the front colision bumper. robotic hoovers takes the mop water into its base station which is then sucked up by the tank's heating elements before being is poured into a larger storage container. The tank that is onboard holds plenty of water and can handle about half a dozen mopping sessions before going dry.
As with most robotic vacuums and mop combos like the S1 Pro is ready to take it out from the box. The S1 Pro does need to be refilled with clean water. This can be done in the cleaning dock. You can also add cleaning solution to the dock in case you want to have the option of using your own brand of cleaner. If you decide to choose to use this feature, you'll need to purchase the cleaning solution from Eufy, which is more expensive than other robot brands that allow you to use your personal choice of cleaners.
Like most robots like it, the S1 Pro did well in navigation efficiency and coverage evaluations. It was quick to map the area and moved around furniture. It sat on carpets with larger piles several times during my tests. However it could be improved by re-updating the software. The S1 Pro is a very capable all-in-one robot for an affordable price.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry-level mop and vacuum but it does have some outstanding features. Its multifunction dock empties the robot's dirtbag and replenishes its water tanks, while washing and sanitizing mop pads as it goes. The mopping system is able to sweep a large area before returning to its dock. The vacuum's extreme suction is perfect for picking up pet hair and other debris from carpets.
The application that runs the appliance is quite dense, and offers many options to customize the cleaning process. You can clean manually every area that is that are mapped by this device, or select individual rooms, zones that can be expanded, or a routine you've developed. SmartPlan is one of the mopping options. It uses the sensors on the mop to map the space and determine the most efficient way to clean it.
The Qrevo performed well during our tests, just like all the Roborock models that we've tested. Its navigation system works well in locating rooms quickly and cleaning them in a well-organized way. The 'Normal' setting for pathing is excellent at covering a space, with no major gaps or missed areas. The Reactive Tech hazard avoidance system works fairly well, too however it's not as advanced as the color camera system found on the Qrevo Master or the S8 Pro Ultra. It can detect hazards such as thick carpets however it won't always detect small things like rug tassels, or electrical wires.
This device has a major problem: it doesn't offer a mop after vacuuming. This could be a problem for those who vacuum frequently prior to using their robot. Fortunately, there's a simple workaround: the app includes the option to "clean up" at the end of each vacuuming session. This lets you use the mopping feature of the vacuum to eliminate the last remnants of debris and dust left behind by the vacuuming. It's a nice feature, and it helps the robot make its clean better than its cheaper rivals.
