The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo
The Q Revo is an excellent choice if you're looking for an affordable robot vacuum and mop. It gives a great mopping experience, but it lacks the features that make up its more expensive sibling.
In the course of testing, it was able to handle dry oats and dust on medium-pile carpet as well as pet hair on hard flooring. However, like cheaper models, it doesn't utilize LIDAR to determine the layout of your home.
1. IRobot Roomba S9+
The iRobot Roomba S9+ robot vacuum is among the best-rated robots. It has impressive cleaning power and plenty of features, including a self-emptying dirt compartment built into its charging base. This robot can also learn your cleaning habits and suggest automatic schedules to provide a hands-free and effortless experience.
The iRobot Home App guides you through the process of setting up. Once the system is in place you can begin the automated cleaning with a single button. You can choose the general clean option which focuses on the elimination of larger particles like rice and cereal. You can also select two detailed mappings to ensure that your entire home is cleaned thoroughly.
This vacuum works well on both floors with no carpet and carpets with a low pile. It sucks up large items and does not lose suction as fast as other models do and can clean up pet hair without much difficulty. It does have a hard time with plush or high-pile carpet, but iRobot promises it will improve with the next models.
The S9+ is a new design by iRobot that is focused on improving edge and corner cleaning. It's the first Roomba to adopt an open-fronted, flat-fronted design, which will allow it to hug walls and furniture. It's a nice change from the traditional hockey puck shape of the majority of robovacs. However, we found it to be marginally better than circular models.
iRobot also claims that the S9+ has an advanced filter system that prevents tiny dust particles and allergens from recirculating in your home. It's a nice claim however, we're not convinced it's enough to justify the price cost.
Its intelligent navigation system makes use of sensors to store the layout of your home and vSLAM 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 manage the robot and plan cleaning times, and create virtual boundaries, so it is aware of areas that require more attention.
2. Roborock Q Revo
When it is about robots that combine vacuuming and mopping, the Roborock Q Revo is a standout. Its vac settings are as effective as those on higher-end models and its mopping system is superior, as its spinning pads do a much better job of scrubbing floors than a stationary vibrating pad.
The only issue is the absence of a second brush to allow for more thorough cleaning. However, that's not a problem when you're looking to purchase one of the top robots on the market. The dust tank on the robovac is larger than its competitors. Filling it takes just two or three cycles, even when you've got the most dirt.
In terms of the mopping device, I was amazed with its ability to scrub off tough dirt from my floors. Its two mopping modes at the lowest that are less abrasive than the high-powered ones, produce minimal noise, allowing you to work or even watch television without interruption. If it comes into contact with an object, such as a wall or piece of furniture it gently bumps into it and moves along.
The Q Revo is unique in that it runs almost completely on its own, with no user involvement. The dock of the robo-vac can be multi-functional and will automatically move garbage into a bin hidden. It also cleans and dries, as well as refills the clean water tank. The app is good at nagging you only when something needs attention, such as the water tank being empty or a scheduled cleaning session having been canceled due to a stuffed dust bin.
You can also combine or create actual rooms to personalize the way Q Revo handles your home. This is an excellent feature if you have multiple areas of the home with different flooring materials or there's a lot of items that need to be cleaned out regularly, such as clothes, toys, and books. The robot vacuum was also one of the top performers in my test and was able to remove debris from carpets and hardwood floors in the first pass. It can vacuum up even wet spills. I suggest drying the area with a towel prior to sending it in.
3. robot vacuum black friday Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni
The X2 Omni is a premium robot mop and vacuum combo with all the features you can want. It comes with a rotating mop and a powerful vacuum that can clean carpets as well as hard floors. It's akin to the iRobot Roomba S9+. It also has an automatic cleaning station that washes and empties the mop pads, keeping them fresh and ready for reuse. It also comes with a sensor that recognizes obstacles better, allowing it to avoid falling on furniture or other objects.
The biggest difference over the ECOVACS Deebot X1 is that it is sleeker and more modern design due to Danish firm Jacob Jensen Design (best known for Bang & Olufsen products). The robot is still quite large. It is more than two feet in both height and depth, and weighs in at least four pounds. However the robot and its base are smaller than the Roborock Q Revo or iRobot J7.
This version is more efficient than the X1 since it charges faster and can clean 1,500 square feet in a single charge. It also has a bigger and more robust dust bin that can hold more debris. This makes it easier to empty.
Finally lastly, the X2 Omni has a more user-friendly app and a voice assistant that works offline, which means you can use it even if you're away from home. It also has more mopping options and a smart routing feature that gives it the flexibility to clean specific rooms or areas of your home instead of just following a specific route.
The Omni X2 Omni has the top mopping performance of any robot we've tested, thanks to its mop pads rotating to clean tough stains away and a motor that generates plenty of downward pressure. Its vacuuming capabilities are excellent too and it enhances suction when it senses carpets to ensure that it does an excellent job. It comes with a huge rechargeable battery that lasts up to a week. The mopping feature of the robot is also very effective.
4. Dreametech L10s Ultra
The Dreametech L10s Ultra robot mop and vacuum is a high-end model that has a range of convenience features not often found on robots in this price range. It can make precise floor maps and recognize different flooring types. It's also among the few robots that automatically clean and dry its mop pad. But while these functions are nice to have, they also push the L10s Ultra into the category of luxury and could mean it's a little more expensive than some homeowners require.
Designed to resemble a modern floor cleaner, the L10s Ultra is a tall and slim machine with an elegant white finish that's enhanced by mirror plating and silver elements. The front of the machine is adorned with a large bumper that protects the vacuum cleaner and furniture as you move around your home. Sensors are concealed behind the front panel, which helps the L10s Ultra navigate around tight corners and avoid obstacles.
On the top of the vacuum, there is a single button that is used as an on/off switch. By pressing this button, you can activate the vacuum, and clicking it again will shut off the vacuum and send it back to its base station. The circular menu located in the middle of the control panel allows you to choose cleaning modes as well as schedules and preferences. The left and right buttons on the screen will open up the app's settings menu where you can tweak the way that the L10s Ultra integrates with your home.
Like the iRobot Roomba S9+ and Roborock Q Revo, the L10s Ultra uses a combination of LIDAR and camera-based navigation techniques to map out your home. This creates a precise floor plan that helps the robot vacuum and mop efficiently, without getting stuck in messy areas. The LIDAR also lets the robot vacuum to recognize and avoid obstacles which is a great feature for households with children or pets.
The L10s Ultra is an extremely powerful vacuum cleaner, which removes 98.4 percent of debris from our test on hard floors and taking out all but stubborn juice stains. The mops also work well, removing 98.4 percent of debris from our tile, carpet, and wood tests. However, it wasn't as effective in removing sand from the hard floor and the quaker oats that are on carpet.
