robots that vacuum and mop (More suggestions)

Robots that vacuum and mop offer the convenience of cleaning dry debris (dust dirt) and wet mess (spills, staining) in one time without the need to switch out devices. They can also save storage space compared to having two separate units, especially in smaller living spaces.

A good combination bot will have excellent navigation and obstacles avoidance. Look for models that automatically empty their bin and fill up their water tank, and wash their mopping pads with the dock that is specifically designed for them.

1. Eufy S1 Pro

It's one of the easiest robots to set up that we've ever tested. Unpacking is easy and the quick-start guide gets you running in no time. It comes with an entire dust bag, water tank and hard floor solution.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can vacuum and mop well. The mops spin at high speeds and can apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, making short work of pet hair, dirt, and dried sticky spills. The vacuum has four power modes, a range of brushes and attachments and an intuitive app that lets you choose the kind of cleaning you'd like for each room.

You can, for example ask the robot to clean the kitchen and the living room thoroughly, but leave the spare bedroom alone. The S1 Pro's front collision sensors and its smart navigation technology are excellent too, with the robot being capable of detecting tiny obstacles that other models have difficulty overcoming. Its only drawback is that it can smash into walls and other objects at a high speed, but an instant glance at the history of cleaning in the app will tell you exactly what it's doing, where it's going, and which obstacles it's avoided.

The docking station has an LCD display that indicates the need for maintenance, such as emptying debris and rinsing the dirty water tank. It is also able to mix detergent into the tank by itself by using a 600ml eufy solution.

Both the S1 Pro mop and vacuum have a long run time. The mop can operate for 184 mins in Quiet Mode and the vacuum can last for 136 minutes in normal mode, prior to having to recharge or returning to the base. You can also view the entire cleaning information in the app, which is intuitively laid out and is easy to comprehend however we would have liked to be able to distinguish between a vacuum only or mop and vacuum clean when examining a cleaned area in the history of cleaning.

2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra

The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the latest version of the company's flagship robot mop and vacuum. In contrast to the model of last year, this one features a double agitator in its mopping pad, which greatly improves carpet cleaning abilities.

As with the other two Roborock models I've tested the S8 Pro Ultra has a reactive 3D obstacle avoidance and infrared technology that help it avoid furniture, walls and other obstacles. The S8 Pro Ultra goes one step further and incorporates a dual-camera that can identify objects, determining if they're walls or other surfaces. It can then automatically change its path and clean the objects without a pause.

It's the most expensive of the three models I've reviewed, but it's also feature-packed. Its sleek, angular design is eye catching and only has three buttons that are physically accessible. The power button, which also restarts the cleaning mop function, a button for cleaning that doubles as a child lock, and a home-button to send the robot to its dock. Lifting the hinged lid, you will find 350ml of dust bin and 200ml water tank. The water tank self-empties and the bin is auto vacuum and mop-filling.

The only drawback I could find to this model was that the VibraRise mop pads mount is not removable. It is possible to replace the mopping cloth when required, but it's a challenge to take the mount off to wash it manually. I've observed that any soft carpet that the robot passes will come into contact with the Velcro-like fastener system on the mount, which could cause abrasions.

The S8 Pro Ultra has a number of smart capabilities which include support for Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Siri. The Roborock app lets you manage and configure these features. It also includes maps and advanced mopping options. The app lets you schedule cleanings and monitor the battery's lifespan. However, you'll need to jump through a few hoops to enable voice control with this model which is unfortunate considering the performance of this model.
