Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuum-mop combinations can be customized with an app that can save maps of your home as well as set cleaning schedules and choose 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 feature aids your robot navigate through rooms and obstacles, while an obstacle avoidance function helps it avoid hitting furniture, wires or stray pet toys. These features are essential in my home, which is full of toys.
1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the flagship vacuum of the company and mop, comes packed with features. It can sweep and mop simultaneously, and even lift its brushes or mop pads to ensure that soft surfaces don't get wet. It also can detect and avoid obstacles, thanks to the ability to recognize pet toys, plants and other small objects.
The robotic vacuum's maximum suction power is 6,000 pascals. This is more than any robot vacuum we have tested to date. It's also equipped with PreciSense LiDAR navigation, which tracks its position, preventing it from getting stuck on objects.
The mopping capabilities of the S8 Pro Ultra are also impressive. It can provide constant pressure to the pad of more than 6 Newtons for a thorough clean. It also comes with mop lifter technology which lifts the pad automatically as it changes between tile and laminate or hardwood flooring, as well as carpet or rugs, to avoid soaking soft surfaces.
In addition to this it is also the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying features. The pad is capable of rinsing and then drying within the dock. The dust bin will automatically empty and return to the dock. You can set it up and forget about it. It is only necessary to refill the water tank or replace the dust bag on occasion.
All of this is powered by a 5,200mAh lithium-ion battery. The S8 Pro Ultra ran on its usual mop- and vac-settings for approximately 160 minutes before beginning to lose power and returned to its base to recharge. This isn't far off from the 180-minute time that Roborock claims and is on the same level with other hybrids I've tested.
This is a highly complete and robust product, with the only downside being the fact that it's costly. But, the sheer number of features makes it a very tempting alternative for anyone who wishes to ditch their old stick vacuum and mops. If you can justify the cost we recommend you check this one out.
2. Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra is a premium mop and robot vacuum. The price is justified by its robust features, which include a massive vacuuming capability, as well as two mop heads that rotate. It also comes with an app-based, smart controller and powerful obstacle avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra is one of the most expensive robotic vacuums and mop sets available with a suggested retail price of 999 euros. In my testing it did well across all areas of the home, taking out 98.4 percent of debris from all floors and managing to lift long hair without knots. The mops were also great in delivering outstanding cleaning results with less effort than most mid-range models, due to their rotational motion and the powerful cleaning solution.
The docking station is the primary selling aspect of the L10S Ultra. It's multifunctional and advanced. The docking station empties the trash bin into a bag to collect dirt, fills up the water tank to use for mopping and even dries mop pads. It also has an in-real-time system for detecting hazards and lets you schedule periodic cleaning sessions via its intelligent controls.
The L10S Ultra does not offer better performance for removing carpet debris when compared to the other hybrid mop I tried. In addition it's not as efficient in removing staining that is as strong as those in the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, which is the most expensive model. Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra's top-of-the-line features, it requires regular maintenance. The base station must be cleaned out, and the water tank and dust bag should be cleaned, emptied and dried regularly to avoid mildew and unpleasant odors. The mop pads that are sold separately will require changing regularly.
I would recommend the L10S Ultra to anyone with the money. If you're on a budget I suggest a more basic model that allows you to save money while still being able to enjoy hands-free cleaning at your home. updated blog post noting that even if the L10S Ultra is the best robotic vacuum and mop combination you can purchase however, its cost and maintenance costs will ultimately make it more of a desire than a necessity.
3. Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robot mop and vacuum that will clean up dust and dirt on your hard floors, while taking care of wet mess then you should look no further than the Eufy S1 Pro. This powerful robovac/mop combination has a powerful suction power of 8,000 Pa. It also boasts an enormous battery capacity that can be used for both mopping and vacuuming. It is also equipped with a top-notch obstacle-avoidance system. It has a mop with a roller that is self-cleaning and makes it stand out from other models which require you to return to the base station to wash the mop pad.
The S1 Pro uses a unique mopping system that is a big contrast to the microfiber pads and spinning discs used in other robots. Its roller runs almost the full width of the bot, and it is constantly filled with clean, ozonated water from its dock. The roller scrubs the floor while taking in dirt. Dry debris is picked up with the side brushes or swept into the front collision bumper. The S1 Pro dumps mop water that is dirty into its base station, where it is sucked by the tank's heater elements and empty into a larger storage container. The onboard tank holds plenty of water and can handle a half dozen mopping sessions before going dry.
Like most robot vacuums and mop combinations like the S1 Pro is ready to take it out of the box. The S1 Pro needs to be filled with clean water. This is easily done in the cleaning dock. You can also add cleaning solution to the dock, if you prefer to have the option of using your own cleaner. If you opt for this option, however, you will need to buy the Eufy-branded cleaning solution, which is more costly than other robot brands that allow you to use your choice of cleaners.
Like most robots, the S1 Pro did well in navigation efficiency and coverage evaluations. It was quick to map out a area and moved around furniture. It got stuck on carpets with thick piles a couple of times during my tests. However, this could be improved by updating the software. The S1 Pro is a very capable all-in-one robot for a reasonable price.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry-level mop and vacuum cleaner however it has some outstanding features. The dock's multifunction emptying the robot's dirtbag, refilling its water tanks, and cleaning and sanitizing the mop pads is performed by the dock. The mopping system is able to be able to clean a large area prior to returning to its dock. The vacuum's suction power is perfect for picking up pet hair and debris on carpets.
The application that runs the appliance is quite dense, with a wide choice of options for customizing the cleaning process. You can set it up manually to start an entire map and clear everything that's been that is mapped by the device or you can choose individual rooms, expandable zones, or even a routine that you've set up. There are a number of mopping options that include SmartPlan -an algorithm that uses the sensors on the mops to determine the most efficient way to clean your home as it maps the area.
The Qrevo was a great performer in our tests, just like all the Roborock models we've tested. Its navigation system is solid, mapping rooms quickly and cleaning them in a neat way. The 'Normal" pathing settings cover the room thoroughly, without any major gaps or missed areas. The Reactive Tech hazard avoidance system is also quite effective although it's not as advanced as the color camera system found on the Qrevo Master or the S8 Pro Ultra. It is able to detect dangers like thick carpets 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 an issue for people who do a lot of vacuuming prior to cleaning with their robot. Fortunately, there's a simple solution: the app offers the option to "clean up" at the end of each session. You can use the vacuum's mopping capabilities to remove the dust and traces that are left behind after vacuuming. This is a nice feature that helps this robot to clean up a bit better than its less expensive competitors.
