Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combos
Robot vacuums and mops are becoming more adept, passing our tests for cleaning and taking on various floor types. Look for models that allow you to select between several modes, utilize their charging docks to automatically empty and clean the stairs.
Many of the top models are compatible with your smartphone. Look for an app that lets you save schedules, maps and choose cleaning modes.
- Eufy Omni S1 Pro
The black and gloss gunmetal Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is one of most impressive robot vacuums and mop combos available. It makes use of lidar to navigate and create maps of floors and rooms (even multiple levels) and integrates with the free Eufy Clean app that lets you set schedules and customize the S1's behaviour.
When I tested the S1 It was quick to map our downstairs, which is home to laminate flooring in the kitchen, dining room and bathrooms, along with carpeting with a medium-pile and an area rug. It was able to drive close to walls and even cross raised thresholds without issue. However it had some issues navigating down the stairs in one go. The S1 also did an excellent job of cleaning hard floors by dragging its mop effortlessly on its flat side against the floor and lifting itself when it reached carpet or rug.
The docking station of the S1 automatically empties its trash bin and fills its water tank on board with clean, ozonated water before each mopping session. The dock adds a deep-cleaning solution to the water. The S1 water tank is able to hold up to 12 mopping sessions, however this will differ depending on the frequency you use the mop.
Like all 2-in-1 robots the S1 requires periodic maintenance to ensure that it's operating well. You'll need to periodically rinse out the dirty tank to avoid it becoming blocked. Also, you'll need to clean the swivel wheel and sensors regularly to keep them from becoming clogged with dust or dirt. Overall, the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.

The Deebot X2 Combo Complete does a good job at vacuuming, and has a powerful suction that easily removes most debris and even the tiny dust particles that other robots struggle with. Its navigation capabilities are decent, but it can get stuck on small mats and rugs in my home (which you can alleviate by defining virtual boundaries in the app). Its mopping capabilities are also excellent with a pair of spinning mop pads that lift and scrub the floor, rather than just moving the pad across it. The mops are cleaned with heated water and dried in the base station as required. The mops are also refilled from the top of the base station when required.
- Dreame X40 Ultra
Dreame's X30 Ultra robot vacuum and mop was launched earlier this year. But their new flagship model is packed with impressive features. It delivers outstanding cleaning results and is easy to maintain. This makes it a worthy contender for our list of the best mops and robot vacuums. Its superior mapping capabilities, RGB AI smart detection and a larger side brush ensure an efficient, custom-designed clean is achieved.
The X40 Ultra does an excellent job of vacuuming, picking up fine and large debris from both hard floors and carpets. It also cleaned our test's most soiled areas efficiently, while eliminating pet hairs that are tangled and other messes. The sweeping power is enhanced by a side brush that moves out to tackle difficult-to-reach corners, and an extendable mop pad that deploys alongside baseboards.
Its navigation is smart it can navigate tight spaces and negotiating the stairs without a hitch. It is able to move from one room to another without needing to reverse the direction. This is useful for large homes with multiple rooms. Its obstacle avoidance system is less advanced than its competitors, however, and tends to leave a thick distance over obstacles, which can result in missed spots.
The app's interface is intuitive and well-organized. It should be simple to use for novice and experienced users. The app lets you schedule and manage cleanings. You can also alter the suction power, mop settings and view 2D and 3-D maps. It is accessible via the app, Alexa, Google Assistant or Siri and allows you to keep an eye on its progress from any location. You can also remotely control the X40 Ultra camera for real-time monitoring. You'll require a stable Wi-Fi connection to operate it via the app and external controls.
- Roomba Q5 pro
A robot vacuum does a great job of picking up debris and dirt, but it can't always reach every last piece of dust. It's essential to clean your home regularly, robotvacuummops.uk once a week. This is especially true for dust that accumulates in corners, on shelves, and in crevices in your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro, a 2-in-1 robot that vacuums and mops, is designed to accomplish this. It is easy to connect to your home WiFI network and works with Alexa or Apple Siri.
The Q5 is a stripped down version of the more expensive models in the S-series from the company, which includes the top-of-the-line Roborock S8 maxV ultra. It has the same LIDAR mapping sensor, but saves on cost by removing mopping and using a lower-cost plastic body.

It also comes with a smart app that lets you select your floor type and schedule cleanings. It also has an automatic refill of the water tank and wash system to allow hands-free operation.
The mops also stand out with its 2700Pa power to combat pet hair and dirt on carpets as well as hard floors. The Q5 was among the few robots we tested to not have issues with high-pile rugs and carpets. However, it did not pick up kitty-litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise because it doesn't contain AI-powered obstacle avoidance.

K10 Plus is the quietest robot vacuum we've ever tested. It also has a unique mapping system that helps it reach tight corners and corners that other vacuums are unable to. The device also stores dust in a bigger dustbin which means you need to empty it less often. Additionally, it has washable filters, which reduces the costs associated with using the device.
