Robots That Vacuum and Mop

Robots that vacuum and mop offer the convenience of cleaning both dry debris (dust dirt, grit) and wet mess (spills or stains) in one session without having to swap out devices. They also can save space compared to two separate units, especially in smaller living spaces.

A good combination bot must have impressive navigation and obstacles avoidance. Look for models that can automatically empty their bin and refill their water tank, and machine-wash their mopping pads with an appropriate dock.

1. Eufy S1 Pro

It's one of the simplest robots to set up that we've ever tested. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, and an easy-to-follow guide will have you up and running with a clean, full dust bag, a hard floor solution and water tank in a matter of minutes.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. Its mops spin at high speeds and can apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, allowing for quick removal of pet hair, dirt, and dried sticky spills.

You can, for example request the robot to clean the kitchen and living room thoroughly, but leave the spare bedroom alone. The S1 Pro has excellent front collision sensors and smart navigation technology. It is able to recognize small obstacles that other models can't. The only issue it has is that it can smash into walls and other objects at a high speed, but an instant glance at the history of cleaning in the app will tell you exactly what it's doing and where it's headed, and which obstacles it's run into or avoided.

A convenient LCD screen on the docking station informs you when maintenance jobs need to be done including emptying the debris tray, and rinsing its dirty water tank. It also mixes detergent into the water tank in a controlled manner with a 600ml of eufy solution.

Both the S1 Pro mop and vacuum come with a long-running time. The mop can operate for 184 mins in Quiet Mode and the vacuum can run for 136 minutes in standard mode, before needing recharging or returning to the base. And you can see the entire cleaning information in the app, which is well laid out and is easy to comprehend however we would like to be able to differentiate between a vacuum and mop and vacuum clean when looking at a clean area in the cleaning history.

The hinged lid opens to reveal a 350ml dustbin as well as a 200ml of water tank. The water tank automatically empties and the bin fills up automatically.

The only downside I found in this model was the VibraRise mop pads mount isn't movable. It is possible to replace the mopping cloth if required, but it's not easy to remove the mount for washing manually. I've found any plush carpet that the robot vacuum cleaner uk crosses will be in contact with the rough Velcro like fastener system on the mounts, which can cause abrasions.

The S8 Pro Ultra is equipped with a variety of smart features that include support for Google Home and Amazon Alexa. The Roborock app lets you manage and set up these smart features.
