Noah Pinsonnault is a product review analyst for the Home Care and Cleaning Lab at Good Housekeeping.
He reviews and tests cleaning equipment, with a focus on mopping and robot auto vacuum and mop combos.

The Eufy S1 Pro
This is the model you should select if you're looking for an automatic vacuum cleaner that can also mop. It's smaller than other models on this list, which makes it easier to maneuver through tight corners and under furniture. It has a 220 degree Lidar that, combined with the 3D Matrix Camera System, offers some of my favorite navigation and avoidance capabilities I've seen in the form of a robotic vacuum. It's got a battery of 4600mAh that can last up to 170 minutes if mopping and sucking are set to standard mode. (It can run longer when it is set to turbo). It will even return to its dock to replenish its battery mid-clean.
It's quick and does an excellent job of cleaning my two bedroom apartment. It cleans the carpeted areas extremely quickly, and hardwood floors in the kitchen, living room, and hallways in one go. Its 8,000pa suction motor is quick at picking up sand, dirt, and pet hair. Carpet detection automatically boosts power when it detects carpets and the double side brush assists in removing debris from corners.
The mopping performance, though still impressive, is not as good. The mop's rotating motor spins at a high velocity and pushes down with 2.2lbs of force, effortlessly scraping away dirt and stains. I've noticed that the front arm extends out a little more than other robots. This is useful in difficult corners or along baseboards. Those same front arms can also be employed to clean up larger debris, like broken toys and books.
The S1 Pro is also one of the quietest robot mops and vacuums I've used. It is quieter and doesn't create more noise when vacuuming or mopping. The S1 Pro is only limited by the fact that it must utilize a specific mopping solution and is sold separately. It's simple to set up and works well, but it's something you'll have to be aware of when you purchase this vacuum for the sole reason of mopping.
The Roborock Q Revo
The Q Revo stands apart from the majority of robot vacuums which mops in its class. It is a powerful machine for cleaning with a variety of features.

Another noteworthy feature is the customization options that are available through apps. The Q Revo lets you adjust the suction level and select either a back-and-forth or a random pattern. You can also select the number of passes which will determine how quickly it can move around your home. You can even choose to disable the side brush to avoid damaging rugs and carpets.
This device has a fairly expensive price, but comes with a large selection of smart features. It is important to keep in mind, however, that the device incurs regular expenses, such as mopping equipment and regular maintenance. For example brushrolls need to be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours. The filter is to be cleaned every 150 hours, and mop pads must be replaced every one to three months.
This robotic vacuum cleaner has a high rating on Amazon and includes a broad variety of physical automation features. The robot vacuum uk vacuum also comes with an energy button that doubles as a 'Clean button' as well as a 'Home button that allows it to go back home after cleaning.

The Shark Matrix Plus
The Shark Matrix Plus will be an ideal option for busy professionals or anyone looking to keep their home tidy without spending too much time doing chores. It is a powerful machine with smart navigation, and a long battery life that makes it simple to keep your home clean with minimal effort.
The Matrix Plus robot vacuum is a 2-in-1 mop and vacuum. It is capable of vacuuming as well as mopping. The robot comes with two modules: a dry bin and water reservoir and a separate mopping unit with microfiber pads that snap in and out of place. It's a bit old-fashioned to have separate modules for mopping and vacuuming, but it does mean you don't have to fret about changing the bags for disposables or refilling the tank with water.
Our test subjects found that the Matrix Plus did a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Its most impressive feature was its accurate floorplan map which it uses to create an outline for cleaning. This made it easy for the Matrix Plus to navigate around furniture carpets, rugs and other obstacles. The app also offers the option of setting "No-Go zones" and virtual barriers, which can help to shield certain areas of your house from being swept with mop.
The Matrix Plus also did a surprising job of collecting hair of pets. It was able to collect a large amount of hair that shed by our cats and even got into the nooks and crannies of our stairs which other robots struggled. It was relatively silent and also had a few pleasant jingles that signalled when it was about to start or finished its work.
Its biggest drawbacks were its simple app and the requirement to swap between the modules to switch between vacuuming and mopping. The app is not able to keep multiple maps. This could be a problem if your home has multiple floors. The Matrix Plus is a good option for those looking for an intelligent robot cleaner that can perform both vacuuming and mopping.
The Yiko X1 Omni
The X1 Omni is the most expensive robot vacuum that can be found in our test, but it also has distinct features that are worth taking into consideration. The X1 Omni's most appealing feature is its enormous dock, which doubles as the robot's charging base as well as housing for two water tanks, a clean sink as well as the 2.5-liter dust bin that is automatically eliminates.
The base also has a number of control buttons that allow you to manually start a cleaning job, recall the robot, or use the dock's automatic emptying process. Hold down two buttons to switch off the child lock. This is a nice feature for parents worried about their kids messing around with the vacuum.
The X1 Omni, like other robotic vacuums uses its camera to detect obstacles and furniture in its path. It will stay clear of them. Its True Mapping 2.0 navigation system maps your home 10 times faster than conventional laser detection systems and is four times more accurate in finding objects.
Unfortunately this means that the X1 Omni will occasionally get caught up in obstacles, like an electrical cord dangling across a rug--that it becomes stuck and ceases to function until you free it. This is a rare event however it was frustrating because the X1 doesn't have a "stuck status" alert in its application.
Another issue that could be a problem is another issue is the X1 Omni's inability to automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes during a cleaning session. You will have to manually switch between the two modes, which isn't that bad however, mopping pads don't get cleaned or dried between use. This can lead to mildew and mold.
The X1 Omni looks great, thanks to the Jacob Jensen design team (of Bang & Olufsen fame) who designed its sleek modern base and mopping pad. It's a big difference from the utilitarian black bases of rivals such as Roborock or iRobot. And it's a welcome sight for the market that is dominated by boxy units.
