Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuum-mop combinations can be customised using a specialized application. You can save your home's maps as well as organize cleaning schedules, and select mopping modes. You can also adjust the suction power, as well as how much water your mop uses.
A mapping function can help your robot navigate around rooms. A feature for avoiding obstacles will stop it from running into wires, furniture, or stray toys. These features are vital in my house that is filled with toys.
- Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the flagship mop and vacuum, so it is naturally packed with features. It's able to both mop and sweep in one session and can raise its brushes and mop pads to stop soft surfaces from becoming wet. It can also stay clear of obstacles by spotting pet toys, plants and other small objects.
The robotic vacuum has a maximum suction power of 6,000 pascals which is more than any other robot vacuum we've tested. It also has PreciSense LiDAR navigation, which tracks its location, which prevents it from getting stuck on objects.
The S8 Pro Ultra's mopping capabilities are also impressive. It can continuously apply pressure to the pad of over 6 Newtons for a thorough clean. It also comes with mop lifter that lifts the pad automatically when it transitions between tile and laminate hardwood, carpet or rugs, to avoid soaking the soft surfaces.
The S8 Pro Ultra also has self-washing, and self-drying features. The pad can be washed and heat-dried within the dock and the dust container will get emptied and automatically returned to it. This means you can just leave it in place and forget it, and only need to change the dust bag or refill the water tank occasionally.
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 approximately 160 minutes before beginning to lose power and returned to its base to recharge. This isn't too far off of the 180 minutes that Roborock claims, and is on par with other hybrids that I've tried.
This is a very complete and robust product, with its only downsides being the fact that it's costly. Its sheer number of features make it a great choice for anyone who is looking to replace their old mops and stick vacuums. We would highly recommend this vacuum for those who can afford its price.
- Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra is a top-of-the-line robot vacuum and mop combination. Its high-end price is justified by its robust feature set, which includes the capacity to vacuum large volumes and two gyrating mops. It also includes an app-based, smart controller and a powerful obstacle avoidance system.
The L10S Ultra has a retail price of 999 Euros, which is one of the highest robotic vacuum and mop combos on the market. In my tests, it did well across all areas of the home, removing 98.4 percent of debris from all floor types and managing to lift long hair without getting caught in. The mops also performed well, achieving excellent cleaning results with less effort than many mid-range models. This was due to their rotational movement and an effective dose of cleaning solution.
The L10S Ultra's most significant highlight is its multifunctional docking station. The dock emptys its dustbin into dirt bag, then refills its water tank for the mopping function and even dry its mop pads for you. It features a real-time risk detection system, and its intelligent controls allow you to schedule periodic cleaning sessions.
The L10S Ultra does not offer better performance for removing carpet debris in comparison to the other hybrid vacuum mop I tested. The mops on the L10S Ultra aren't as effective in removing stubborn staining as the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra's top-of-the-line features, it still requires regular maintenance. Its base station has to be cleaned out and the water tank and dust bag must be emptied, cleaned and dried regularly to avoid unpleasant odors and mildew. The mop pads sold separately will need to be changed periodically.
I would recommend the L10S Ultra to anyone with the money. If you're looking to save money I suggest a more basic model that will allow you to save money while still being able to enjoy hands-free cleaning at your home. Even if the L10S Ultra was the best robotic mop and vacuum combination you could find, its high cost and constant maintenance will make it more of a want than need.
- 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 taking care of wet mess take a look at the Eufy S1 Pro. This powerful robovac/mop combo is a mighty 8,000 Pa suction power. It also has a huge battery capacity that can be used for both vacuuming as well as mowing. And it is equipped with a top-quality obstacle-avoidance technology. It even has a roller mop that cleans itself while moving this makes the S1 Pro stand out from other models that have to return to their base station mid-cleaning to wash off 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. The roller is almost entire width of the robot, and it is constantly dosed with clean, ozonated water from its dock. The roller scrubs the floor while soaking up dirt. Any dry debris is swept away with the side brushes or swept away into the front collision bumper. The S1 Pro dumps dirty mop water in its base station where it is sucked by the heater elements of the tank and emptied into a larger storage container. The tank that is onboard holds a good amount of water and can handle about half a dozen mopping sessions before running dry.
The S1 Pro comes ready to use right out of the box as do most robotic vacuums and mops. It must be filled with clean water, however this is easy to do in the cleaning dock. If you'd like to use your own cleaner you can add a cleaning solution to dock. However, if you do select this option you'll have to purchase the brand-name cleaning solution from Eufy which is more expensive than other robot brands that permit you to use your own choice of cleaners.
As with most robots like it, the S1 Pro did well in the area of coverage and navigation efficiency. It was quick to map a area and moved around furniture. It got stuck on carpets with longer piles a couple of times during my tests. However, this could be improved by updating the software. The S1 Pro is a very powerful robot that can be bought at an affordable price.
- Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry level vacuum and mop however it has some outstanding features. The dock's multifunction allows emptying the robot's dirtbag and refilling its water tanks, as well as washing and sanitizing mop pads is done by the dock. The mopping system itself is capable of cleaning up a significant portion of an area before returning to its dock, and the vacuum's extreme suction is capable of picking up debris and pet hair on carpets.
The app that runs the appliance is dense, and offers many options to customize the cleaning process. You can set it up manually to start the full map and then 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 makes use of the mops' sensors to determine the most efficient way to clean your home while it maps the area.
The Qrevo did well during our tests, just like all the Roborock models that we've test. Its navigation system is robust that can quickly map rooms and cleaning them in an organized fashion. The default pathing setting is excellent at covering a space, with no major gaps or missed areas. The Reactive Tech hazard avoidance system works fairly well, too although it's not as sophisticated as the color camera system found on the Qrevo Master or the S8 Pro Ultra. It can detect dangers like thick carpets however it won't always detect small things such as rug tassels or electrical wires.
The most obvious flaw with this model is the absence of a mop after vacuum option which could be a problem for people who do a lot of vacuuming before cleaning their robot. There's an easy solution: The app offers an option that allows you to "clean up" at the conclusion of each session. You can make use of the vacuum's mopping functions to remove the last traces and dust that remained after vacuuming. This is a nice feature that can help this robot keep its cleanness a bit higher than its cheaper competitors.
