The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo
The Q Revo is a great option if you're looking for a robot vacuum and mop that is middle-of-the-road. It offers a great mopping experience, but it lacks the advanced features of its more expensive sibling.
In tests, it was able to take on dry oats and dust on carpets with medium piles and pet hair on hard floors. But, unlike cheaper models, it doesn't utilize LIDAR to help you map your home.
1. iRobot Roomba S9+
The iRobot Roomba S9+ is one of the most highly-rated robot vacuums. It comes with a variety of features and impressive cleaning power, including an area for dirt that is built into the base of charging. This robot can learn your habits for cleaning and suggest automatic schedules to provide you with an effortless cleaning experience.
The iRobot Home App guides you through the process of setting up. Once everything is connected, you can begin the automated cleaning process at the push of one button. You can choose an overall clean, which prioritizes the removal of larger particles like rice and cereal. You can also select two detailed mappings to ensure that your entire home is completely cleaned.
This vacuum works well both on bare floors and carpets with low pile. It is able to pick up pet hair and sucks large objects up. It doesn't lose suction as fast as some other robot vacuums. It has a difficult time with plush or high-pile carpet, however iRobot promises it will improve 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 that uses an open-fronted, flat-fronted design. The company hopes this will allow it to fit into walls and furniture. It's a step up from the hockey puck-shaped robovacs that are common, but we found it to be just marginally superior to circular models.
iRobot also claims that the S9+ has an advanced filtering system that stops microscopic dust particles and allergens from recirculating within your home. It's a nice claim but we're not convinced it's enough to justify the high price price.
Its smart navigation system employs a combination of sensors to keep track of your home's layout, and vSLAM technology to map the interior. It can then clean your entire home with ease by avoiding obstacles such as stairs and other obstacles. The iRobot Home app lets you control the robot and set cleaning times, and establish virtual boundary markers, so that it can recognize areas that require extra attention.
2. Roborock Q Revo
Roborock Q Revo is a robotic that combines mopping and vacuuming. Its vacuum settings are just as good as those found on more expensive models. And its mopping system is better as its spinning pads scrub your floors much more efficiently than a vibrating pad.
The only issue is the lack of a second brush for deeper cleaning. However, it's not a major issue if you want to own one of the best robots available. The dust tank on the robo-vac is bigger than most of its competitors. Filling it up only takes two or three cycles even when you've got the most dirt.
In terms of the mopping system, I was impressed by its ability to scrub hard dirt off my floors. Its two mopping modes at the lowest that are less abrasive than the higher-powered ones produce little noise, allowing you to work or watch TV without interruption. If it comes into contact with an object, such as a wall or piece of furniture, it gently bumps into it before moving along.
What really makes the Q Revo apart is that it's designed to operate almost completely autonomously, requiring only a little for user intervention. The dock of the robo-vac is multifunctional and automatically transfers garbage into a bin hidden. It also cleans and dries the clean water tank. The app is adept at nagging you only when something is in need of 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 combine or create actual rooms to alter the way Q Revo treats your home. This feature is helpful if you have different flooring in different areas of your house or in the event that you have to regularly remove clutter, such as toys, clothes and books. The robot vacuum is also efficient and was among the top performers during my tests, taking debris from carpets as well as hardwoods in its first run. It is able to even vacuum up wet spills but I would suggest drying them using a clean cloth before bringing the robot into.
3. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni
The X2 Omni has all of the features you'd expect from a top-quality robot vacuum and mop and more. Similar to the iRobot Roomba S9+, it has an excellent vacuum with a powerful suction to clean carpet and hard floors, plus the mop's rotating design that can scrub tough stains. It also has a self-cleaning base station that automatically empties and washes the mop pads, keeping them germ-free and ready for use again. It also has a sensor that detects obstacles more accurately, allowing it to avoid falling onto furniture and 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 Bang & Olufsen products). Although it's still quite large--it's more than two feet high and deep and weighs in excess of four pounds--the entire robot and its base are less bulky than the Roborock Q Revo or iRobot J7.
This model is more efficient than the X1 as it charges faster and can clean up 1,500 square feet in a single charge. It also has a larger and more durable dustbin that can hold more debris. This makes it easier to empty.
The X2 Omni also has a more intuitive voice assistant and an app that works even if you are not at home. It also comes with a smart routing function that lets it clean specific rooms or areas of your home, instead of following a set path.
The X2 Omni has the best mopping performance of any robot we've tested, thanks to its mop pads rotating to remove tough stains and a motor that produces plenty of downward pressure. Its vacuuming performance is top-notch, and it boosts suction when it detects a carpet to ensure a thorough cleaning. It is equipped with a large, rechargeable battery that lasts up to a week. The mopping mode of the robot is also powerful.
4. Dreametech L10s Ultra
The Dreametech L10s Ultra robot mop and vacuum is a premium model that comes with a variety of features that aren't often found on robots in this price range. It can build detailed floor maps, identify various flooring types, and it's one of the few robots that automatically wash and dry its mop pads. While these features are nice to have however, they also put the L10s Ultra in the luxury category, which might make it slightly more expensive than the average homeowner need.
Created to resemble a modern floor cleaner The L10s Ultra is a tall and slim machine with an elegant white finish that's accented by mirror plating and silver elements. The front of the machine is dominated by a large bumper, which protects the vacuum and furniture from damage while moving around the home. In the pane in the front is additional navigation technology with sensors that help the L10s Ultra navigate around tight corners and avoid obstacles.
On the top, there's a single button that essentially acts as an on/off switch. By pressing this button, you can activate the vacuum, and pressing it again will turn off the vacuum and send it back to its base station. The circular menu located in the middle of the control panel lets you to select cleaning modes, schedules and preferences. The left and right buttons on the screen will bring up the app's settings menu where you can alter the way that the L10s Ultra works with your home.
The L10s Ultra, like the iRobot Roomba S9+ or Roborock Q Revo uses a combination of LIDAR and cameras-based navigation technology to map out your home. This helps the robot clean and mop efficiently, without getting stuck. The LIDAR also lets the robot vacuum recognize and avoid obstacles and obstacles, which is a wonderful feature for families with children or pets.
The L10s Ultra has a solid vacuuming capability which clears 98.4% of debris from our hard-floor test and removing all but the most stubborn robotic hoovers juice stain. The mops also work well in removing 98.4 percent of debris from our tile, carpet and wood tests. However, it wasn't quite as effective in removing sand from the floor or quaker oats on the carpet.
