The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

The Q Revo is a great option for those looking for an affordable robot vacuum and mop. It has a great mopping capability, but it lacks some of the features that are found in its more expensive counterpart.

In tests it was able to remove pet hair and dry oats out of medium-pile carpets. However, unlike other models, it doesn't utilize LIDAR to map out your home.

iRobot Roomba s9+

The iRobot Roomba S9+ is one of the top-rated robot vacuums. It has a lot of features and incredible cleaning power, including a dirt compartment that is integrated into the base of charging. This robot can recognize your habits for cleaning and suggest automated schedules that will give you a truly hands-free cleaning experience.

The iRobot Home App guides you through the process of setting up. Once the system is in place, you can start automated cleaning with a single button. You can opt for an overall clean that emphasizes cleaning up larger debris like rice and cereal or two thorough maps of your home to ensure that your home has a clean and tidy appearance.

This vacuum works well both on bare floors and carpets with a low pile. It is able to take large objects and does not lose suction as fast as other models do, and it can even remove pet hair without much difficulty. It does have a hard time with high-pile or plush carpet, but iRobot claims it will get better with future models.

The S9+ features a new design from iRobot, which is focused on enhancing edge and corner cleaning. It's the first Roomba to adopt a flat-fronted, D-shaped design, which it hopes will allow it to be able to swaddle walls and furniture. It's a great improvement over the hockey puck-like design of most robovacs, though we found it to be only marginally better than circular models.

iRobot also claims the S9+ has an improved filtering system that blocks tiny dust particles and allergens from recirculating in your home. We think this is a nice claim but not enough to justify a premium price.

Its smart navigation system utilizes sensors to store the arrangement of your home and vSLAM for mapping the interior. It can then clean your entire house efficiently by avoiding obstacles such as stairs and other obstacles. The iRobot Home App allows you to schedule cleaning times and set virtual boundaries so that the robot knows the areas that require attention.

2. Roborock Q Revo

Roborock Q Revo is a machine that combines mopping and vacuuming. Its vac settings are just as effective as those of more expensive models, and its mopping system is superior, as its spinning pads do a better job of scrubbing your floors than a stationary vibrating pad.

The only issue is that it does not have an additional rubber brush to allow to provide more thorough cleaning, but it's an acceptable cost to pay if want one of the best robots available. The dust tank of the robo-vac is bigger than most of its competitors. Filling it up only takes two or three times, even when you've got the most dirt.

For the mopping device, I was impressed by its ability to scrub off tough dirt from my floors. The two mopping settings that it has, which are less powerful than high-powered modes, produce very little noise, so you can work or watch television without getting distracted. It will gently hit furniture or walls and move on when it encounters one.

What really makes the Q Revo apart is that it's designed to operate almost autonomously with very little need for human intervention. The robo-vac features a multi-function dock that can automatically transfer physical trash to the hidden bin and washes and drys the mop pads and refills its clean water tank. The app is adept at nagging you only when something needs attention, such as the water tank being empty or a scheduled vacuuming session having been canceled due to a stuffed dust bin.

You can also create and merge actual rooms to customize the way that Q Revo manages your home. That's a handy feature for those who have multiple areas of the home with different flooring materials or if there's a lot of items that need to be cleaned out regularly, such as clothes, toys and books. The robot vacuum was also one of the top performers in my tests cleaning up debris from carpets as well as hardwood floors on the first attempt. It can even vacuum up wet spills but I would suggest cleaning them off with a cloth before sending the robot into.

3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni

The X2 Omni is a premium robot mop and vacuum combo that comes with all the features you could wish for. Like the iRobot Roomba S9+, it has an excellent vacuum that has powerful suction vacuum robot that cleans carpet and hard floors, and an omni-rotating mop that scrubs tough stains. It also comes with an auto-cleaning base station that automatically cleans and empty the mop pads, keeping them free of germs and ready to use again. It also comes with a sensor that can detect obstacles better and prevents it from falling onto furniture and other objects.

The most significant improvement over the ECOVACS The X1 Deebot is the sleeker, more modern design. This is due to Danish company Jacob Jensen Design, best known for their Bang & Olufsen product line. The robot is still large--it is more than two feet in 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 more efficient than the X1 as it charges faster and cleans 1,500 square feet in one charge. Additionally, it comes with a larger dustbin that is more durable and can hold more debris which makes it easier to empty it when needed.

The X2 Omni also has a more intuitive voice assistant and an app that works even when you're not at home. It also has more mopping modes and an intelligent routing feature that allows you to clean specific areas or rooms of your home instead just following a set route.

The Omni X2 Omni is the most effective mopping performance of any robot we've tested, due to its mop pads rotating to scrub away tough stains and a motor that produces plenty of downward pressure. Its vacuuming capabilities are excellent too and it increases suction when it senses carpet to ensure it does a thorough job. It also has a massive battery that can last for several weeks between charges and its mopping mode is as efficient as the ones we've seen on a consumer-grade robot.

4. Dreametech L10s Ultra

The Dreametech L10s Ultra is a top-quality robot vacuum and mop that comes with a host of features that you don't often see on robots in this price range. It is able to build detailed floor maps, detect different types of flooring and is one of the few to automatically wash and dry its mop pads. But while these functions are great, they also put the L10s Ultra in the category of luxury which could make it somewhat more expensive than some homeowners need.

The L10s Ultra looks like a modern floor cleaner. It's tall and slim and has a white-colored finish accented with silver elements and mirror plating. The front of the machine has a large bumper that protects the furniture and vacuum cleaner when you are moving around your home. Sensors are hidden behind the front pane which helps the L10s Ultra navigate around tight corners and avoid obstacles.

On the top of the vacuum, there is a single button which serves as an on/off switch. The button will activate the vacuum. Clicking it again will turn it off and transmit it to its base station. The control panel is the circular menu which lets you select cleaning modes, schedules, and preferences. The left and right buttons allow you to access the settings in the app, which allow you to customize how the L10s Ultra interacts with your home.

Similar to the iRobot Roomba S9+ and Roborock Q Revo, the L10s Ultra uses a combination of LIDAR and camera-based navigation technology to map out your home. This creates a precise floor plan that allows the robot vacuum and mop effectively without getting stuck in messy areas. The LIDAR also helps the robot vacuum recognize and avoid obstacles, which is a nice feature for households with pets or children.

The L10s Ultra has a solid vacuuming capability, clearing 98.4 percent of the debris from our hardwood floor test and removing all but the most stubborn juice stains. The mops also work well in removing 98.4 percent of the debris from our tile, carpet and wood tests. However, it wasn't quite as great at tackling sand on the hard floor and quaker oats on the carpet.
