Best Robotic Mop and Vacuum Combos
The majority of robot vacuum and mop combinations can be customised using a specialized application. You can save your home's maps, create cleaning schedules and select mopping modes. They also allow you to alter suction power and fine-tune how much water and the scrubbing action of your mop.
A mapping function can help your robot navigate through rooms. A feature for avoiding obstacles prevents it from running over wires, furniture, or stray toys. These features are essential for my home that is filled with toys.
1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the flagship vacuum of the company and mop, is packed with features. It's able to both mop and sweep in one session and even raise its brushes and mop pads to stop soft surfaces from getting too damp. It can also avoid obstacles by looking for pet toys, plants and other small objects.
The robotic vacuum's maximum suction power is 6,600 pascals. This is higher than any robot vacuum we have tested so far. It also comes with PreciSense LiDAR Navigation that tracks its position, which prevents it from becoming stuck on objects.
The mopping function is impressive and the S8 Pro Ultra able to apply constant pressure of over 6 Newtons to the mop pad for a deep clean. It also has a mop lifter system which lifts the pad automatically when it changes between tile and laminate or hardwood flooring, as well as carpet or rugs to prevent soaking soft surfaces.
In addition to this, the S8 Pro Ultra has self-washing and self-drying functions. The pad can be washed and dried in the dock and the dust container is automatically emptied and returned to it. This means you can just put it away and forget about it, only having to clean the dust bag and refill the water tank on occasion.
All of this is powered by a 5,200mAh lithium-ion battery. I used it on its standard vac and mop settings for approximately 160 minutes before the S8 Pro Ultra started to run low on power and return to its base to recharge. This isn't that far from the 180-minute time that Roborock claims and is on the same level as other hybrids I've tried.
This is a very well-rounded and capable product, with the only downside being that it's costly. Its sheer number of features makes it an appealing choice for anyone looking to replace their old stick vacuums and mops. If you can justify the cost, we highly recommend checking this one out.
2. Dreametech L10S Ultra
The Dreametech L10S Ultra is a high-end robot vacuum and mop combination. Its high-end price is justified by its powerful feature set, which includes a large vacuuming capacity and two gyrating mops. It also includes an app-based controller that is smart and a mighty obstacle avoidance technology.
The L10S Ultra has a retail price of 999 Euros, which is among the most powerful robotic vacuums and mop combinations available. In my tests, it performed well across the home. It removed 98.4 percent of the debris on all types of floors and was able to lift long hair without tangling. The mops also performed admirably and produced excellent results for cleaning with less effort than many mid-range models. This was due to their rotational motion and the powerful cleaning solution.
The docking station is the main selling point of the L10S Ultra. It's multifunctional and sophisticated. The dock emptys its dustbin into dirt bag, then refills its water tank for mopping, and dry its mop pads for you. It also comes with a real-time hazard detection system and lets you schedule regular cleaning sessions using its smart controls.
Unlike the other hybrid vacuum mops that I tried The L10S Ultra doesn't offer advanced debris removal on carpets. The mops in the L10S Ultra aren't as effective at removing stubborn stains as the 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 must be emptied, cleaned and dried regularly to prevent unpleasant odors and mildew. It is also important to note that the mop pads which are bought separately will need to be replaced regularly too.
With the L10S Ultra's pricey pricing and its extensive features I would highly recommend it to anyone who has the money for it. 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 buy, its high price and ongoing maintenance will make it more of an item to have than one that you actually need.
3. Eufy S1 Pro
If you're looking for a robotic mop and vacuum that can pick up dirt and dust on your hard floors while cleaning up wet mess then take a look at the Eufy S1 Pro. This powerful robovac/mop combo has a powerful suction power of 8,000 Pa. It also has a huge battery capacity that can be used for mopping and vacuuming. It's also fitted with an excellent obstacle-avoidance system. It has a mop with a roller that cleans itself, making it stand out from 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 major departure from the microfibre pads and spinning discs of other robots. Its roller runs almost the full width of the bot, and it is constantly dosed with ozonated, clean water from its dock. When it turns 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 takes the mop water into its base station which is then sucked up by the tank's heating elements, and dumped into a larger storage canister. The tank onboard holds a decent amount of water, and can handle a half dozen mopping sessions before going dry.
Like many robot vacuums and mop combinations, the S1 Pro is ready to take it out from the box. It must be filled with clean water, however this is a simple task by cleaning the dock. If you want to use your own cleaner you can include a cleaning solution to the dock. If you decide to use this feature, however, you will be required to purchase the Eufy brand cleaning solution which is more expensive than other robot brands allowing you to choose your preferred brand of cleaning products.
The S1 Pro performed well in the coverage and efficiency of navigation tests, as did most robots. It was quick to map a room and it was able to navigate around furniture. It was stuck on carpets with larger piles a couple of times during my tests. However it could be improved by re-updating the software. The S1 Pro is a very powerful robot that can be bought at affordable prices.
4. Roborock Qrevo
The Qrevo is Roborock's entry-level vacuum and mop but it does have some outstanding features. Its multifunction dock empties the robot's dirtbag and replenishes its water tanks, as well as washing and sanitizing mop pads as it goes. The mopping system can clean a large area before returning to its dock. The vacuum's extreme suction is ideal for removing pet hair and other debris that accumulates on carpets.
The application that runs the appliance is quite extensive, and provides many options for customizing the cleaning process. You can choose to manually clean all areas that this device maps or choose individual rooms, zones that can be expanded, or a routine you've developed. SmartPlan is one of the mopping options. It makes use of the sensors on the mop to map the space and determine the most efficient method to clean it.
The Qrevo did well in our tests, like all the Roborock models that we've test. Its navigation system is efficient, mapping rooms quickly and cleaning in an organized way. The 'Normal' setting for pathing does a great job of covering a room, with no major gaps or missing areas. Reactive Tech's hazard avoidance works well too, but it's not as sophisticated as the color camera systems on the Qrevo Master and the S8 Pro Ultra. It is able to detect dangers like thick carpets but may not be able to recognize smaller items such as rug tassels and electrical wires.
One of the biggest flaws 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 before cleaning with their robot. There's a good solution: the app offers the option to "clean up" at the end of each vacuuming session. This lets you use the vacuum's mopping capability to get rid of the last traces of debris and dust left behind by your vacuuming. This is a nice feature that helps this robot clean a little better than its cheaper competitors.
