The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

For pets with shedding fur A Bagotte 4-in-1 Robot Vacuum Cleaner: Mop - Boost And Navigation vacuum/mop combination is among the best floor cleaning solutions. This machine can mop, vacuum and clean its own mop pad with dual mop pads.

It also has 8,000Pa suction, the most of any robot that we've evaluated. It also allows you to set up cleaning schedules and save maps of your home from its app.

1. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni

The X2 Omni robot vacuum-mop is the latest in Ecovacs line of hybrid robot vacuum mops. This wet/dry model comes with the upgraded AIVI 3D2.0 lidar system Ecovacs, which gives improved mapping and obstruction avoidance. The system is equipped with dual laser LiDAR, which is similar to that used in self-driving vehicles. It can scan a space up to 32 feet across by 360 degrees. That translates into more precise mapping, quicker response times, as well as better cleaning accuracy.

It also comes with a rotating mopping pad made of chenille fabric, which makes it easier to scrub hard areas than traditional mop. In my tests, the X2 Omni washed its pad in just over a second and was ready to go. I noticed that it was more accurate than other models that seemed to follow the grid of rooms. It was adept at navigating my rooms by the corners and edges as well as make an "Zambani pattern" that ran up and down the middle of the room. It also returned to its OMNI station on a regular basis to empty the trash bin and clean the mop using hot water before starting another clean-up job.

The X2 Omni is just as easy to use and set up as the other Ecovacs products. It takes just minutes to snap the dock into position, plug it in and connect to your home Wi-Fi network. You can then launch the app to start your first cleaning project. I was able dive into the settings and modify my floor plan in about 15 minutes, which included creating restricted areas for mopping and sweeping as well as reworking my wall-mounted furniture placements, and so on. The X2 Omni performed impressively in my tests, achieving excellent scores for the removal of pet hair and debris cleaning, as well as near-perfect results in cleaning crevices and edges.

2. Deebot T10 Omni

The T10 Omni from ECOVACS is a powerful mopping and vacuum machine. It is the most advanced of the T-line offered by the company and comes with the brand new OZMO Turbo2.0 mopping system that utilizes a dual-spinning brush for superior cleaning than conventional scrubbers. It has YIKO, a natural language processing technology that is a first of its kind. This allows it to respond to various voice commands. The ECOVACS App lets you map your house, create cleaning schedules and adjust settings.

The main drawback of the T10 Omni is that it can't switch from mopping to vacuuming in a single run. The two modes require that you attach and remove the mop heads as you need to which is great for most homes, but isn't a good fit for robot vacuum mops people who have a busy schedule.

The Deebot T10 is a great robot vacuum that delivers impressive results. It removed more than 96% debris from our hardwood flooring. This is a fantastic performance. It did a great job on tiles and carpets cleaning up 99percent of dirt.

This robot vacuum and mops has large docking systems that allows for automatic cleaning using cool mop pads. It also comes with an auto-emptying 3L bag that's easy to replace, and hot air drying for quick and simple maintenance. It also has a large tank of water that allows it to be washed and dried more frequently between mopping sessions.

As with other mopping robots such as the Deebot T10, this one comes with a wash tray at its base that rinses and dry its mop pads when it uses them. However, it doesn't come with an open tray, which means that dirty water dust, dirt and other grime slowly builds up in the bottom of the tray over time.

3. RoboVac X8 hybrid

While the Anker-owned Eufy is well-known in the world of robot vacuums but this model is its first venture into the realm of mopping. It features upgraded intelligence, multiple map support, LIDAR scanning and twin-turbine technology that automatically adjusts to the surface you are cleaning. It's a mid-range robotic cleaner that's appealing even if its claim of being a one-stop shop for floor cleaning doesn't quite be realized.

The X8 Hybrid appears to be an ordinary robotic cleaner from the top. It has a circular shape with the sweeping wheels, as well as an elevated sensor. Turn it upside down, however you'll see a motorised floor brush plus one side sweeper brush that carries dirt from the edges into the main pathway of the robot's 'mouth'. It's a bit smaller than the main brushes on the rival iRobot Roomba S9, which I found to be easier to fit under chairs and sofas.

Its mapping system is reasonably sophisticated and allows you to set no-mop zones, as well as specific cleaning zones. It has a habit of hitting things such as its charging station, and isn't the best in climbing over carpets. It was good at getting pet hair off of the floor. In our tests, it picked up 89.5 percent of kitty litter.

The X8 Hybrid is controlled via an app, but it also has physical buttons on its base. These buttons allow you to select a cleaning mode or turn the robot on/off. These buttons can be used to establish zones that are not allowed to be visited and to view real-time maps. It's a bit chatty and will tell you what it's going to do next ("start cleaning") or even warn you that something's not right (it doesn't have enough power to charge, for example).

4. ILIFE A4s

This high-tech model sucks up pet hair, kibble and robot vacuum mops other messes with remarkable effectiveness and effortlessly moves around furniture legs. It also comes with an impressive feature set that includes two cleaning modes, a self-emptying dock, and real-time obstacle avoidance technology. It's Wi-Fi enabled and best controlled through the Neato app which allows cleaning to be scheduled and overall maintenance needs be monitored. The X2 Omni is a great choice for large homes with a mix of carpet and hard floors. However, it will need some planning in advance to avoid getting caught on electrical cables, toys or other unexpected obstructions.

The robot performed well in our tests of hardwood floors and kibble. It ate everything, from one rice grain to several dog food pieces with just one pass. It had a bit of difficulty transitioning to carpets, however, in general, this vacuum cleaner is ideal for rooms that have flooring of all kinds and a mix of pets.

The A4s Pro is expensive but it's an excellent option for those who wish to be able to leave the house hands-free so they can get out and do other things or do chores. The A4s Pro has a convenient auto-cleaning mode that increases suction to get rid of the most difficult spills or dirt. It also comes with a battery powered ElectroWall to set boundaries for the robot vacuum and mop for pet hair.

This budget-friendly option from a popular upstart brand is the cheapest model we've tested to date and offers an incredible value for money. The basic navigation system employs a super-basic random pathing algorithm, but it doesn't have room mapping capabilities, which makes it less efficient than other models on this list. It's still able to navigate under furniture and into the corners. And its mopping mode performed very well in our tests, picking up stray hair and other debris.

5. Shark iQ

Shark's iQ isn't quite as well-built as the Roomba S9, but it does a better job overall in cleaning up pet hair on all surfaces. It does a better job of cleaning carpets with low piles as well as floors that are not covered. It also makes use of smart-pathing navigational software for greater maneuverability. It can be sent to a specific area, and has a suite of advanced automation features including no-go zones and schedules. It allows you to stop and resume cleaning sessions which is ideal for homes with pets.

Its self-cleaning brushroll is able to prevent knots and holds up to 30 days of dirt. It has a set of side brushes that are angled to reach into corners, as well as a multi-stage filter system that captures dust, allergens and dander.

The robot vacuum is built well and feels solid. It is compatible with a smartphone application that allows you to change the vacuum's settings and schedule cleaning sessions ahead of time. The app allows you to see the remaining battery life of the iQ and also receive push notifications in the event of any issues during a cleaning session. You can also control it using your voice using an Amazon Alexa device or Google Assistant device. If you don't own either of these devices you can mark the boundaries of your area by using physical boundary markers.

The iQ is good in cleaning floors with no dirt and does an adequate job with carpets that are sagging and low-pile. However it doesn't provide the same level autonomy as our top selections. It's also expensive and the cost of recurring use can increase.
