The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo
The Q Revo is a great choice if you're looking for a robot vacuum and mop that's priced in the middle. It offers a great mopping experience but lacks the advanced features of its more expensive counterpart.
During testing it was able to tackle dust and dry oats on medium-pile carpet as well as pet hair on hard flooring. It doesn't use LIDAR however, as other models do, to locate your home.
1. iRobot Roomba S9+
The iRobot Roomba S9+ is one of the top-rated robot vacuums. It has impressive cleaning power and plenty of features, including a self-emptying dirt compartment built into its charging base. This robot can learn your cleaning habits, and recommend automatic schedules that will give you a truly hands-free cleaning experience.
The iRobot Home App guides you through the setup process. Once everything is connected, you can start the automated cleaning functions with the touch of the button. You can choose an overall clean that focuses on getting rid of larger pieces of debris such as cereal and rice, or opt for two detailed maps of your home to ensure your entire home gets a proper look.
This robot vacuum is effective on floors that are unfinished and carpet with a low pile. It sucks up large items and does not lose suction as fast as other models do, and it can even clean up pet hair with ease. It's a challenge with high-pile carpets or plush carpets however iRobot says that future models will be more efficient.
The S9+ is a new design by iRobot that concentrates on enhancing corner and edge cleaning. It's the first Roomba to adopt an open-fronted, flat-fronted design, which will allow it to be able to swaddle walls and furniture. It's a great improvement over the hockey puck-like design of the majority of robovacs. However, we discovered it to be only marginally better than circular models.
iRobot claims that the S9+ also comes with superior filtration which blocks tiny particles and allergens from circulating in your home. It's a nice claim, however, we're not convinced it's enough to justify the premium price tag.
Its intelligent navigation system makes use of a combination of sensors to remember your home's layout and vSLAM technology for mapping the interior. It then cleans your entire home with ease by avoiding obstacles like stairs and other barriers. The iRobot Home app lets you control the robot and schedule cleaning times, and create virtual boundaries, so it is aware of areas that require extra attention.
2. Roborock Q Revo
Roborock Q Revo is a robotic that combines vacuuming and mopping. Its vacuum settings are as good as those on more expensive models. And its mopping system is superior because its spinning pads clean your floors more effectively than an ordinary pad that vibrates.
The only drawback is the absence of a second brush to allow for more thorough cleaning. But that's not a problem when you're looking to purchase one of the best robots available. The robo-vac's dust tank is larger than many of its competitors, and it takes just two or three cycles to fill it, even with the highest dirt level.
For the mopping system, I was awestruck by its ability to scrub tough dirt off my floors. Its two mopping modes at the lowest, which are less aggressive than the more powerful ones, create very little noise, which allows you to work or even watch television without interruption. If it encounters an object, such as 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 comes with a multi-function dock that automatically moves physical trash into the bin hidden in the background, as well as washes and dry the mop pads and refills its clean water tank. The app is good at alerting you when something requires attention, like the clean water tank running low or a scheduled cleaning session being cancelled due to a full dust bin.
You can also create and merge actual rooms to alter how the Q Revo treats your abode. That's a handy feature for those who have multiple areas of the home with different floor materials or if there's items that need to be cleaned out frequently, such as toys, clothes and books. The robot vacuum was also among the best performers in my test, picking up debris on carpets and hardwood floors on the first attempt. It can also vacuum up wet spills but I would suggest wiping them dry with a cloth before sending the robot into.
3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni
The X2 Omni is a premium robot mop and vacuum that has all the features you can wish for. Like the iRobot Roomba S9+, it has an excellent vacuum that has a powerful suction to clean hard and carpet floors, as well as an omni-rotating mop that scrubs tough stains. It also has an auto-cleaning base station that automatically empty and cleans the mop pads, keeping them clean and ready for use again. It also comes with a sensor that can detect obstacles better and prevents it from falling on furniture or other objects.
The most significant improvement over the ECOVACS Deebot X1 is that it has a sleeker, more modern design thanks to Danish firm Jacob Jensen Design (best known for its Bang & Olufsen products). The robot is still quite large. It measures over two feet in both height and depth, and weighs almost four pounds. However the robot and its base are smaller than the Roborock Q Revo and iRobot J7.
This model is more efficient than the X1 as it charges faster and cleans 1,500 square feet in a single charge. Additionally, it comes with a larger, more durable dustbin to hold more debris and is easier to empty when needed.
Finally it is worth noting that the X2 Omni has a more user-friendly app and voice assistant that operates offline, allowing you to control it even when you're away from home. It also has more mopping options and an intelligent routing feature which allows it to clean specific rooms or areas of your home instead of simply following a predetermined route.
The Omni X2 Omni has robot cleaner with mop the top mopping performance of any robot we've tested because of its rotating mop pads that remove tough stains and a motor that produces plenty of downward pressure. Its vacuuming performance is outstanding too, and it boosts suction when it senses carpet to ensure it does the job well. It also has a huge battery that can last for weeks between charges, and its mopping mode is as efficient as any we've seen in the market for a consumer robot.
4. Dreametech L10s Ultra
The Dreametech L10s Ultra robot mop and vacuum is a top-quality model that has a range of features that aren't typically found on robots in this price range. It can build precise floor maps, recognize different types of flooring, and it's one of the few robots that automatically wash and dry its mop pads. Although these features are nice to have, they also push the L10s Ultra into the luxury category and could mean it's slightly more expensive than what 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 machine with an elegant white finish highlighted by silver elements and mirror plating. The front of the machine features an enormous bumper that shields the vacuum cleaner and furniture while moving around your home. Sensors are hidden behind the front pane which helps the L10s Ultra navigate tight corners and avoid obstacles.
On the top, there's a single button that essentially acts as an on/off switch. Clicking this will turn on the vacuum, and clicking it again will shut off the vacuum and send it back to its base station. The circular menu at the center of the control panel lets users to select cleaning options as well as schedules and preferences. The left and right buttons will open the settings of the app where you can alter the way the L10s Ultra interacts with your home.
The L10s Ultra, like the iRobot Roomba S9+ or Roborock Q Revo uses a combination of cameras and LIDAR technology to map out your home. This helps the robot clean and mop efficiently, without getting stuck. The LIDAR also lets the robot vacuum to recognize and avoid obstacles and obstacles, which is a wonderful feature for households with children or pets.
The L10s Ultra is a powerful vacuum cleaner, removing 98.4 percent of the debris we test on hard floors, and taking out all but stubborn juice staining. Its mops also do a great job, removing 98.4 percent of the debris from our carpet, tile and wood tests. However, it wasn't quite as efficient in dealing with sand on the floor or quaker oats on the carpet.
