The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

The Q Revo is an excellent option if you're looking to buy a mid-range mop and robot vacuum. It has a great mopping performance but lacks some of the features found in its more expensive sibling.

In tests it was able to remove pet hair and dry oats from medium-pile carpets. It does not use LIDAR, however, as other models do to locate your home.

Roomba s9+ from iRobot

The iRobot Roomba S9+ robot vacuum is among the top-rated robots. It comes with a variety of features and incredible cleaning power, including the dirt compartment built into the base of charging. It can also learn your habits of cleaning and suggest automated schedules for a truly hands-free experience.

The iRobot Home App guides you through the setup process. Once the system is in place it can begin cleaning automatically with just one button. You can select the general clean option which focuses on the elimination of larger pieces of debris like cereal and rice. You can also opt for two thorough mappings to ensure that the entire home is completely cleaned.

This vacuum works well on both floors with no carpet and carpets with a low pile. It can remove pet hair and sucks large objects up. It doesn't lose its suction as quickly as other robot vacuums. It has a difficult time with high-pile or plush carpet, but iRobot says it will improve with the next models.

The S9+ is a new design from iRobot that is focused on improving the edge and corner cleaning. It's the first Roomba to adopt a flat-fronted D-shaped design, which it hopes will allow it to fit into furniture and walls. It's a great improvement over the traditional hockey puck shape of the majority of robovacs. However, we discovered it to be only marginally better than circular models.

iRobot also claims that the S9+ comes with an improved filtering system that stops tiny dust particles and allergens from recirculating in your home. It's a nice claim however, we're not convinced that it's enough to justify the high price cost.

Its smart navigation system uses sensors to remember the structure of your home, and vSLAM for mapping the interior of your home. It can then clean your entire home efficiently by avoiding obstacles like stairs and other barriers. The iRobot Home App allows you to schedule cleaning times and also set virtual boundaries to ensure that the robot is aware of which areas need extra attention.

2. Roborock Q Revo

When it is about robots that can combine mopping and vacuuming the Roborock Q Revo is a standout. Its vac settings are just as effective as those on higher-end models and its mopping system is better still--its spinning pads do a much more impressive job of scrubbing floors than a stationary vibrating pad.

The only drawback is the absence of a second brush to allow for deeper cleaning. However, it's not a problem for those who want to own one of the top robots on the market. The robo-vac's dust tank is also larger than many of its rivals and takes only two or three cycles to fill it, even at the highest dirt level.

In terms of the mopping system, I was impressed by its ability to scrub tough dirt off my floors. The two lowest mopping settings that are less powerful than high-powered modes, produce very little noise, so you can work or even watch television without getting distracted. If it comes into contact with a wall or piece of furniture it gently smacks into it and then moves forward.

The Q Revo is unique in that it runs almost entirely on its own, requiring only minimal user involvement. The robo-vac features a multi-function dock that automatically moves physical garbage into the bin hidden in the background, as well as washes and drys the mop pads, and refills its clean water tank. The app is good at nagging you only when something needs attention, such as the water tank being empty or a scheduled cleaning session being cancelled because of a full dust bin.

You can also create or merge rooms to customize the way that Q Revo manages your home. This feature is helpful when you have different flooring in different areas of your house or if you need to regularly remove clutter, such as toys, clothes, and books. The robot vacuum is also efficient and was among the best self-emptying robot vacuum top performers in my tests, removing debris from both carpets and hardwoods in its first run. It is able to even clean up spills that are wet, though I recommend cleaning them off using a clean cloth before bringing the robot in.

3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni

The X2 Omni is a premium robot mop and vacuum combo that has all the features you can wish for. Like the iRobot Roomba S9+, it is a top-quality vacuum that has powerful suction that cleans carpets and hard floors, as well as the mop's rotating design that can scrub tough staining. It also has an auto-cleaning base station that automatically cleans and empty mop pads, keeping them clean and ready for use again. It also comes with a brand new sensor system that is able to better recognizes obstacles, giving it the ability to avoid falling over furniture and other objects.

The biggest improvement over the ECOVACS The X1 Deebot is the sleeker, modern design. This is due to the Danish company Jacob Jensen Design, best known for their Bang & Olufsen product line. The robot is still quite large. It measures over two feet in the height and depth and weighs almost four pounds. However the robot and its base are smaller than the Roborock Q Revo or iRobot j7.

This version is also more efficient than the X1 one, because it has a faster charging speed for batteries and can handle a full cleaning of around 1,500 square feet with just one charge. It also has a bigger dustbin that is more durable to hold more debris, making it easier to empty it when needed.

Finally lastly, the X2 Omni has a more intuitive app as well as a voice assistant that works offline, which means you can use it even if you're not home. It also comes with additional mopping modes as well as an intelligent routing feature that allows you to clean certain rooms or areas of your home instead just following a specific route.

The Omni X2 Omni is the most effective mopping performance of any robot we've tested, because of its rotating mop pads that clean tough stains away and a motor that produces plenty of downward pressure. The vacuuming capabilities are also top-notch, and it boosts suction when it senses carpets to ensure thorough cleaning. It also has a massive battery that can last for several weeks between charges and its mopping mode is as efficient as any we've seen in a consumer-grade robot.

4. Dreametech L10s Ultra

The Dreametech L10s Ultra is a premium mop and vacuum robot that comes with a host of features that you don't often see on robots of this price range. It can make detailed floor maps and identify different types of flooring. It's also among the few robots that can automatically clean and dry its mop pad. While these features are nice to have, they also put the L10s Ultra in the luxury category and could mean it's somewhat more expensive than some homeowners need.

Created to look like a contemporary floor cleaner designed to look like a modern floor cleaner, the L10s Ultra is a tall and slim device that has an elegant white finish enhanced by mirror-plated silver elements. The front of the machine is dominated by an enormous bumper that helps protect furniture and vacuum cleaners from damage when moving through the home. In the pane in the front is additional navigation technology in the form of sensors that aid the L10s Ultra navigate tight corners and avoid obstacles.

On the top of the screen, you'll find one button that basically acts as an on/off switch. Clicking this will turn on the vacuum, and pressing it again will turn off the vacuum and return it to its base station. The central control panel includes an oblique menu that lets you select cleaning modes or schedules, as well as preferences. The left and right buttons open the settings of the app which allow you to customize how the L10s Ultra interacts with your home.

The L10s Ultra, like the iRobot Roomba S9+ or Roborock Q Revo uses a combination LIDAR and cameras-based navigation technology to map out your home. This produces a precise floor plan that helps the robot vacuum and mop effectively without getting stuck in areas with clutter. The LIDAR also assists the robot vacuum to recognize and avoid obstacles and obstacles, which is a wonderful feature for families with pets or children.

The L10s Ultra is an extremely powerful vacuum cleaner, removing 98.4% debris from our test on hardwood floors and taking out all but stubborn juice staining. The mops are also efficient, taking away 98.4 percent of the debris that was found on our tile, wood, and carpet tests. However, it wasn't as efficient in dealing with sand on the hard floor and Quaker oats on carpet.
