Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuum-mop combinations can be customized using an application designed specifically for the purpose. You can save maps of your house as well as set up cleaning schedules and select mopping modes. They also allow you to alter suction power and fine tune the amount of water and the scrubbing action of your mop.
A mapping function helps your robot navigate around rooms. A feature for avoiding obstacles helps it avoid running over wires, furniture or other 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 naturally comes with features. It can sweep and mop simultaneously, and can even raise its mop pads or brushes so that soft surfaces don't get too wet. It also can avoid obstacles by finding pets, plants, and other small objects.
The robotic vacuum's maximum suction power is 6 000 pascals. This is higher than any vacuum we've tested so far. It also has PreciSense LiDAR navigation to track its location, which prevents it from getting stuck on objects.
Its mopping functionality is also impressive and the S8 Pro Ultra able to apply a constant pressure of 6 Newtons to the mop pad to provide an intense clean. It also features an automatic mop lifting system, that will raise the pad when it transitions from tile to laminate, hardwood to carpets and rugs to prevent getting soaked by these soft surfaces.
In addition to this, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying features. The pad can be used for rinsing and drying in the dock. The dust bin will automatically empty before returning to the dock. This means you can leave it in place and forget it, and only need to change the dust bag or refill the water tank occasionally.
This is all powered by a lithium-ion battery of 5,200mAh. I used it on its standard vac and mop settings for around 160 minutes before the S8 Pro Ultra started to get power hungry and then return to its base for a recharge. This isn't that far from the 180 minutes Roborock claims and is at the same level with other hybrids I've tested.
It's a well-rounded and capable product, with its only downsides being the fact that it's costly. Its sheer number of features make it a great choice for anyone looking to replace their old stick vacuums and mops. If you are able to justify the price, we highly recommend checking this one out.
2. Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra is a top-of-the-line mop and robot vacuum. The premium price is justified by the powerful features, which include a massive vacuuming capacity and two gyrating mop heads. It comes with an app-enabled smart controller as well as powerful obstacle-avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra has a retail price of 999 Euros, which is among the most expensive robotic vacuum and mop combinations available. In my tests, it performed admirably throughout the entire home. robot vacuum cleaners uk was able to remove 98.4% debris on any type of floor and was able to lift long hair without tangling. The mops also performed well and produced excellent cleaning results with less effort than most mid-range models, thanks to their rotational motion as well as the powerful cleaning solution.
The docking station is the main selling point of the L10S Ultra. It's multifunctional and modern. The dock empties its dustbin into dirt bag, fills its water tank for mopping, and dry its 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 superior carpet debris removal performance compared to the other hybrid mops I tested. In addition, its mops aren't as efficient in removing tough stains like those in the premium Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra’s high-end features it still requires regular maintenance. To avoid mildew and unpleasant odors, the base unit dustbag, water, and tanks must be cleaned regularly, emptied, and dried. It is also important to note that the mop pads, which are purchased separately, must be replaced on a regular basis too.
I would recommend the L10S Ultra to anyone with the money. If you're on a budget, I would suggest a less basic model that allows you to save money while enjoying the convenience of hands-free cleaning at home. It's worth noting that even if the L10S Ultra is the best robot vacuum and mop you can purchase but its high cost and maintenance costs will ultimately make it more of a want than a necessity.
3. Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robot mop and vacuum that will pick up dirt and dust on your hard floors, while cleaning up wet mess, then look no further than the Eufy S1 Pro. This powerful robovac/mop set-up has a powerful 8,000 Pa suction power. It also boasts a huge battery capacity that can be used for vacuuming as well as mowing. And it is equipped with an excellent obstacle-avoidance system. It comes with a roller-mop that cleans by itself which makes it stand out from other models that require you to return to the base station to wash off the mop pad.
The S1 Pro has a unique mopping system that is different from the spinning discs and microfibre pads found in other robots. Its roller runs almost the full width of the bot and is constantly filled with ozonated, clean water from its dock. The roller scrubs the floor while collecting dirt. Any dry debris is swept away with the side brushes, or swept away into the front bumper. The S1 Pro then dumps the dirty mop water into its base station, which is then absorbed by the tank's heating elements, and dumped into a larger storage bin. The onboard tank is able to hold a large amount of water and handle up to half a dozen mopping session before running out.
As with most robotic vacuums and mop sets like the S1 Pro is ready to roll out of the box. The S1 Pro does need to be filled with clean water. This is easily done using the cleaning dock. You can also add a cleaning solution to the dock in case you want to have the option of using your own cleaner. If you decide to use this feature, however, you will have to purchase the Eufy-branded cleaning solution that is more expensive than other robot brands, allowing users to select their own choice of cleaning products.
Like most robots that are available, the S1 Pro did well in accuracy in navigation and coverage tests. It was fast to map a room, and it was able to navigate around furniture. The only issue is that it was stuck a couple times on longer pile carpets and rugs in my tests however this can be rectified as the software is updated. The S1 Pro is a very capable all-in-one robot for affordable prices.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's basic mop and vacuum, but it still has some amazing features. The dock's multifunction allows emptying the robot's dirtbag, refilling its water tanks and washing and sanitizing mop pads is done by the dock. The mopping system is able to sweep a large area before returning to its dock. The vacuum's suction power is great for picking up pet hair and debris on carpets.
The app that runs the appliance is extensive, and provides a variety of options to customize the cleaning process. You can manually clean all areas that this device maps or select specific rooms, an expandable zone or a routine you've created. SmartPlan is one of the mopping options. It makes use of the sensors on the mops to map out the area and determine the most efficient method to clean it.
The Qrevo was a great performer in our tests, just like the other Roborock models we've tested. Its navigation system performs well in locating rooms quickly and cleaning in a neat way. Its "Normal" pathing option covers an area well, and doesn't leave any major gaps or missing areas. The Reactive Tech hazard avoidance system works fairly well, too, though it's not as sophisticated as the color camera system on the Qrevo Master or the S8 Pro Ultra. It can spot hazards such as thick carpets but it might not always be able to detect smaller items like rug tassels or electrical wires.
The machine has a major problem: it doesn't offer a mop after vacuuming. This could be a problem for those who vacuum a lot before using their robot. Fortunately, there's a simple alternative: the app has the option to "clean up" at the end of each vacuuming session. You can use the mopping features of the vacuum to get rid of the dust and dirt that are left behind after vacuuming. This is a great feature that helps this robot keep its cleanness a bit higher than its cheaper competitors.
