Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos

The majority of robot vacuum-mop combinations can be customized with a specialized application. You can save maps of your home and set up cleaning schedules and choose mopping modes. They also allow you to alter suction power and fine-tune the amount of water and scrub action your mop makes use of.

A mapping feature can help your robot navigate through rooms, while an obstacle avoidance feature will stop it from hitting wires, furniture or other pet toys. These features are vital for my home that is filled with toys.

1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra

The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the flagship mop and vacuum cleaner, so it is naturally with a host of features. It's able to both mop and sweep in one session and can raise its mop pads and brushes to stop soft surfaces from becoming too damp. It can also avoid obstacles by spotting pet toys, plants and other small objects.

The robot vacuum has a suction power of 6,000 pascals, which is more than any other robot vac we've tested to date. It's also equipped with PreciSense LiDAR navigation to track its position, which helps prevent it from getting stuck on objects.

Mopping capabilities are also impressive, with the S8 Pro Ultra able to apply a constant pressure of 6 Newtons to the mop pad to provide an intense clean. It also comes with an automatic vacuum cleaner and mop mop lifting mechanism, which lifts the pad as it moves from tile to laminate hardwood, carpet and rugs, thereby avoiding the possibility of soaking these soft surfaces.

In addition, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying functions. The pad can be washed and heat-dried within the dock, and the dust bin will get emptied and automatically returned to it. You can set it up and forget about it. You will only need to replenish the water tank or change the dust bag every now and then.

All of this is powered by a 5,200mAh lithium-ion battery. The S8 Pro Ultra ran on its normal mop and vac-settings for around 160 minutes before beginning to run out of power and returned to its base to recharge. This isn't far off from the 180-minute time that Roborock claims and is on par other hybrids I've tested.

This is a highly robust and well-rounded product with the only downside being the fact that it's expensive. The sheer amount of features makes it a very attractive option for anyone looking to replace their old mops and stick vacuums. If you can justify the cost, we highly recommend checking this one out.

2. Dreametech L10S Ultra

The Dreametech L10S Ultra is a premium mop and robot vacuum. The high price is justified by its robust features, which include a massive vacuuming capacity and two gyrating mop heads. It has an app-enabled smart controller as well as powerful obstacle-avoidance technology.

The L10S Ultra has a retail price of 999 Euros which is one of the highest robotic vacuum and mop combos available. In my testing it was able to perform well across all areas of the house, removing 98.4 percent of the debris on all floor types and managing to lift long hair without getting caught in. The mops were also great in delivering outstanding cleaning results with less effort than most mid-range models, due to their rotational motion as well as an incredibly strong cleaning solution.

The L10S Ultra's most significant selling point is its innovative multi-functional docking station. The dock empties its dustbin into dirt bag, then refills its water tank to enable the mopping function and even dries its mop pads for you. It features a real-time risk detection system, and its sophisticated controls allow you to schedule periodic cleaning sessions.

Unlike the other hybrid vacuum mops that I tested The L10S Ultra doesn't offer advanced dirt pickup on carpets. 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 premium features, it requires regular maintenance. Its base station needs to be cleaned as well as the water tank and dust bag should be cleaned, empty and dried regularly to avoid unpleasant odors and mildew. It is also important to keep in mind that the mop pads, that are bought separately, are required to be replaced on a regular basis too.

With the L10S Ultra's pricey pricing and its extensive features I would highly recommend it to anyone with the funds for it. If you're on a tight budget, I recommend a more basic model that allows you to save money and still enjoy hands-free cleaning at your home. Even it were the case that the L10S Ultra was the best automatic vacuum cleaner vacuum and robotic mop you could buy but its price and ongoing maintenance will make it seem more an option than a necessity.

3. Eufy S1 Pro

Eufy S1 Pro is the robot vacuum and mop that you require to get rid of messes and remove dirt from your hard floors. This powerful robovac and mop combo packs a strong suction force of 8,000 Pa, an impressively large battery capacity for both vacuuming and mowing and a top-of-the-line obstacles-avoiding. It even comes with a roller mop that cleans itself as it goes this makes the S1 Pro stand out from other models that require users to return to their base station mid-cleaning to wash off the mop pad.

The S1 Pro has a unique mopping mechanism that is a departure from the spinning discs and microfibre pads found in other robots. The roller is nearly the entire length of the robot vacuum cleaners uk and it receives a constant supply of clean water that is filtered and ozonated from the dock. While it spins the roller scrubs your floors while soaking up dirt and any dry debris is picked up by the side brushes or swept away into the front colision 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 canister. The onboard tank can hold a substantial amount of water and handle up to half a dozen mopping session before running out.

The S1 Pro comes ready to use right out of the box, just like most other robotic vacuums and mops. The S1 Pro does need to be filled with clean water. This can be accomplished in the cleaning dock. You can also add a cleaning solution to the dock, should you prefer the option of using your own cleaner. If you decide to opt for this feature, you'll need to purchase the brand-name cleaning solution from Eufy, which is more expensive than other robot brands that permit users to use their own choice of cleaners.

Like many 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 problem is that it got stuck a couple times on larger pile carpets and rugs during my testing, but this may be fixed when the software is upgraded. The S1 Pro is a very powerful robot that can be bought at a reasonable price.

4. Roborock Qrevo

The Qrevo is Roborock's entry-level vacuum and mop, but it still has some outstanding features. Its multifunction dock empties the robot's dirtbag, and refills its water tanks, while washing and sanitizing mop pads as it goes. The mopping system is capable of cleaning up a significant portion of a space before returning to its dock and the vacuum's high suction does a nice job of removing dirt and pet hair that accumulates on carpets.

The application that runs the appliance is quite dense, offering a wide choice of options for customizing the cleaning process. You can clean manually all areas that this device maps or choose individual rooms, expandable zone, or a routine you've created. There are a number of mopping options that include SmartPlan -- an algorithm that utilizes the sensors on the mops to find the most efficient method to clean your home while it maps the space.

The Qrevo did well during our tests, just like the other Roborock models we've tested. Its navigation system is robust, mapping rooms quickly and cleaning them in a neat manner. The 'Normal" pathing settings cover the room thoroughly, without any major gaps or missing 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 can detect dangers such as carpets with thick padding, but might not be able to identify smaller objects like rug tassels and electrical wires.

The one glaring flaw of this model is the absence of a mop-after-vacuum option which could be an issue for those who do a lot of vacuuming before cleaning with their robot. Thankfully, there's an easy alternative: the app has an option to "clean up" at the end of each session. You can make use of the vacuum's mopping capabilities to remove the dust and traces that remained after vacuuming. It's a nice addition and can help this robot vacuums with mop make its clean better than its less expensive competitors.
