Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuum-mop combinations can be customized with a specialized application. You can save your home's maps as well as set up cleaning schedules and select the mopping mode you prefer. You can also alter the suction power and fine tune the amount of water and scrubbing action your mop uses.
A mapping feature helps your robot navigate rooms, while an obstacle avoidance feature will stop it from hitting wires, furniture, or even stray pet toys. These are essential features for my house, stuffed with strewn-about toys.
1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the top-of-the-line mop and vacuum cleaner, so it's a natural choice to be packed with features. It can sweep and mop simultaneously, and raise its brushes or mop pads so that soft surfaces don't get wet. It can also see and avoid obstacles, thanks to the ability to identify pet toys plants, small objects.
The robotic vacuum has a suction power of 6,000 pascals which is more than any other robot vac we've tested. It's also equipped with 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 apply constant pressure to the pad at over 6 Newtons to ensure a thorough cleaning. It also comes with an automatic mop lifting mechanism, that will raise the pad when it goes from tile to laminate hardwood, carpet and rugs to avoid soaking these types of soft surfaces.
In addition in addition, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying features. The pad can be washed and dried in the dock and the dust container will get emptied and automatically returned to it. This means that you can leave it in place and forget it, and only need to replace the dust bag or refill the water tank occasionally.
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 it began to run out of power and returned to its base to recharge. This is within the range of the 180 minutes Roborock claims and is comparable with other hybrids I've tested.
It's a robust, well-rounded product. The only issue is that it's pricey. However, its sheer abundance of features makes it a very tempting option for anyone who wants to get rid of their old stick vacuum and mop. We would highly recommend this vacuum if you can justify the cost.
2. 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 powerful features, which include a large vacuuming capacity and two gyrating mop mops. It also includes a smart, app-enabled controller and powerful obstacle avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra has a retail price of 999 euros, which is one of the highest robotic vacuum and mop combinations available. In agree with this was able to perform very well in all areas of the house, removing 98.4 percent of the debris on all types of floors and able to lift hair that is long without knots. The mops also performed well in delivering outstanding cleaning results with less effort than mid-range models, due to their rotational motion as well as a strong dose of cleaning solution.
The L10S Ultra's most significant highlight is its docking station that is multi-functional. The docking station empties the trash bin into a bag for dirt, then refills the water tank for mopping and even dries mop pads. It also has a real-time safety detection system and allows you to schedule regular cleaning sessions using its smart controls.
Unlike the other hybrid vacuum mops I've test, the L10S Ultra doesn't offer advanced debris pickup performance on carpets. Additionally it's not as efficient in removing stubborn stains as those found in the top Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra.
Despite the L10S Ultra's top-of-the-line features, it still requires regular maintenance. To avoid mildew and unpleasant smells, the base station dustbag, water and tanks must be cleaned, emptied and dried regularly. It is also important to note that the mop pads, which are purchased separately, will need to be replaced periodically too.
I would recommend the L10S Ultra to anyone with the money. 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. It's worth noting that even the L10S Ultra is the best robotic vacuum and mop combination you can buy but its high cost and constant maintenance will eventually make it more of a wish rather than a requirement.
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 powerful robovac/mop combo is a mighty 8,000 Pa suction power. It also has a large battery capacity that can be used for both mopping and vacuuming. It is also equipped with a top-quality obstacle-avoidance technology. It even comes with a roller mop that cleans itself as it goes, which makes the S1 Pro stand out from other models that require users to return to their base station mid-clean to wash off the mop pad.
The S1 Pro has a unique mopping mechanism that is different from the spinning discs and microfibre pads of other robots. The roller covers the entire length of the robot and it is supplied with a continuous supply of fresh water that is filtered and ozonated from the dock. As it rotates, the roller scrubs your floors while soaking up dirt, and any dry debris is picked up by the side brushes or swept into the front colision bumper. The S1 Pro then discharges the mop water that is dirty into its base station which is then absorbed by the tank's heating elements, and then pumped into a larger storage container. The onboard tank can hold a good amount of water and handle up to a half dozen mopping sessions before being emptied out.
Like many robotic vacuums and mop sets like the S1 Pro is ready to take it out from the box. The S1 Pro will need to be refilled with clean water. This is easily accomplished in the cleaning dock. If you'd like to make use of your own cleaner you can add a cleaning solution to dock. If you do opt for 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 own choice of cleaners.
The S1 Pro performed well in the coverage and efficiency of navigation tests, just like the majority of robots. It was quick to map the space and navigated around furniture. The only issue is that it got stuck a couple of times on longer pile carpets and rugs in my tests however this can be improved when the software is upgraded. The S1 Pro is an all-in-one robot that provides a lot of functionality at a reasonable cost.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry level mop and vacuum however it has several impressive features. The dock's multi-function function is emptying the robot's dirtbag, refilling its water tanks, as well as washing and sanitizing mop pads is done by the dock. The mopping system can sweep a large area before returning to its dock. The vacuum's suction power is ideal for removing pet hair and other debris from carpets.
The software 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 take care to clean everything that is that is mapped by the device or you can choose particular rooms, expandable zones or even a schedule you've created. SmartPlan is one of the mopping options. It utilizes the sensors on the mops to map out the space and determine the most efficient way to clean it.
Like all Roborock models we've tested, the Qrevo performs well in our tests. Its navigation system is reliable that can quickly map rooms and cleaning them in a systematic fashion. Its "Normal" pathing option covers the room thoroughly, without any major gaps or missing areas. Reactive Tech's hazard-avoidance feature works well, however it's not as advanced as the color camera systems found on the Qrevo Master and the S8 Pro Ultra. It is able to detect dangers like carpets with thick padding, but may not be able to identify smaller objects like electrical wires or rug tassels.
The one glaring flaw of this device is the absence of a mop after vacuum option that could be a problem for those who spend a lot of time vacuuming prior to cleaning with their robot. There's a simple solution: the app has an option that lets you "clean up" at the end of each vacuuming session. The vacuum's mopping functions to remove the dust and traces that were left behind after vacuuming. It's a nice touch, and it helps this robot make its clean better than its cheaper rivals.
