Best Robot Vacuums and Mop Systems
This robot vacuum-mop makes an excellent choice for those who live in apartments as it has a smaller docking system and carries its own rubbish bin. The app lets you set up various modes and monitor the cleaning. The mopping function is also impressive.
Its mapping capabilities and obstacle avoidance are impressive, and it is able to mops extremely well and removes pet hair, spillages, and dirt. It also self-empties and cleans and refills its water tank.
iRobot Roomba Combination
The iRobot Combo is an iRobot that can vacuum and mop. It doesn’t quite unseat our current Editors’ Choice, the Deebot X1 Omni, which is more efficient and has an app that is easier to use on mobile devices but it does make for a strong alternative. It is able to pick up dirt from hard floors and carpets. Its obstacle avoidance isn’t as advanced as other systems, such as LiDAR and structured light, but it is able to avoid most collisions.
The Combo has many of the same features that the J7 Plus does, including onboard acoustic sensor to determine the floor’s type and AI-powered Navigation. However, it doesn’t have the ability to control suction power using a hand. It’s also less compact than its vac-only counterpart, and it doesn’t have an auto-empty dock.
In my experience, the Combo is a great choice for most homes, and its sleek design is easily one of the most attractive in the industry. The matte black finish is more elegant than the glossy or metallic finishes of the majority of competitors. iRobot also adds some more elegant features, such as a leather tab for opening the onboard bin, and a shelf to store bags that are not in the dock. The iRobot Combo makes it simple to create maps and establish Keep-Out Zones.
Roborock
While Roborock is relatively new to the robot vacuum and mop market, it’s already earned a name for itself thanks to a suite of innovative cleaning techniques. The brand’s vacuums have industry-leading suction, and its mopping systems utilize vibrating mops that scrub floors clean. You can also alter the cleaning routine of the bot by making use of a variety of scheduling and mapping options.
Roborock’s obstacle avoidance feature allows the robot to see objects that are smaller than its own height. This is particularly beneficial for the most well-known Roborock models, such as the Qrevo Master, which is top of the line in terms of navigation because of vSLAM and LiDAR. Other Robovacs are often seen to crash into furniture and run over pet faeces, without even noticing however the Qrevo Master solves this issue with a Reactive AI system that makes use of twin cameras to discern objects in the room.
Roborock robots also come with a number of convenience features that reduce day-to-day maintenance, including auto-empty capable docks and multifunctional mop washing stations. They eliminate the need to manually empty bins and wash mops, making for an entirely hands-free ownership experience. The app is simple to use due to its simple design and lag-free connection to the robot.
Hobot Legee D8
With a wide range of cleaning options and advanced mopping options, the Hobot Legee is among the best robot vacuums/mops for both dry and wet floors. Its advanced navigation system combines five technologies to plan and execute the most efficient route. It can also identify different flooring materials, as well as obstacles with pinpoint accuracy. It can even lift itself 7mm to glide across carpets. The smart spray system uses the proper amount of water to get rid of staining without leaving ugly water marks.
The Legee is a Gen 4 Robot, competes directly against the Eufy Robovac X9 or Ecovacs Deebot T20. Both robots cost more. It has more features, including a flexible D-shaped robot that can clean corners and under cabinets more effectively than the round version. Its sensors include 360deg 3D (Lidar, Encoder, Gyro E-compass, and Encoder) four forward-facing and one right-side-facing FDS (IR ToF sensors for distance) and two pairs of cliff detectors front and back (most robots only have one pair). Additionally, it comes with Legee SLAM that helps to reduce the bump-and-grind issues that cause problems for Gen 4 Robots.
Unlike most other robots, unlike other robots, the Legee comes with a built-in trash compactor and supports the less noisy 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. The LuLu mop cleaner station cleans, refills and dries the mop’s ‘cloth’. The mop can be used up to six times longer than other mops. It also reduces the amount of waste and frequency at which bins are emptied.
Karcher RCV 5
Popular for its pressure washers and garden tools, Karcher has been dabbling in robot vacuums for quite a time and it’s the most technologically advanced model. It is powered by LiDAR and creates maps of your home and can be programmed to mop or vacuum. It can also distinguish between hard floors and carpets to ensure that you don’t end up with puddles on your precious pile.
Its navigation is top-quality, avoiding furniture and rugs effortlessly and even lowering itself up steps. The robot can be customized by adjusting different settings, such as cleaning schedules and the rooms it should clean. It also has an emergency button that can force the robot to return to its base in the event that it is unable to supply power and can be programmed to automatically turn itself off when it is a threat of storm.
The RCV 5 is easy to use and, while heavy at almost 4kg, it’s hardly difficult to maneuver around furniture. Parents of small children will appreciate the safety features such as sensors that warn it to avoid stairs. After being charged it takes just a few hours to charge and the two buttons on the top will blink in green to let you that it is now ready to use.
Mova E30 Ultra
The Mova E30 Ultra is a robot vacuum cleaner that balances modern cleaning technology with affordability. It’s a rival to models such as the Dreame L10 Ultra or Roborock’s bestseller Q Revo. Despite its lower price tag it is worth the price. Mova E30 Ultra offers features that other models can’t beat. It utilizes sensors to adjust the settings for different floors and surfaces and also to find areas with dirtier surfaces. It also moves at a slow speeds to avoid damage to furniture and walls.
You can also see the map of your home within the app. You can also mark rooms and objects you would like the vacuum to stay away from. The vacuum will slow down when it detects an obstruction and will avoid bumping into it. It is also equipped with smart dustbins that notify you when it’s empty, so you can empty it in time.
The Mova E30 Ultra offers a cost-effective option for those who wish to delegate their daily cleaning tasks. It doubles as a robot vacuum and mop which allows you to keep your floors spotless without lifting a finger. It also features a clever design that boosts corner cleaning efficiency by as much as 60%. It has suction power of up to 7,000 Pa and a RoboSwing arm, which can be controlled via the app or voice assistants like Alexa or Siri.
Beko RCV3
The Beko RCV3 is a stylish and well-equipped hybrid robot vacuum/mop that does a fantastic job of keeping floors spick and span. It isn’t able to lift its mop to clean carpets or rug, as does the Roborock S8 MaxV ultra, but it is very good at cleaning hard floors. It also has an auto-emptying bin, provides a good level of suction power, and offers a number of mopping options and can be controlled by a top quality app that is compatible with both iOS and Android.
It’s smaller than the competition, and its main brush is smaller but it still managed an impressive job in our test room. The revolving edge brush on the side is a great addition. While it didn’t remove dirt as effectively as other competitors, it still did a great job.
The device can be programmed to have individual cleaning parameters for each room. It then creates detailed maps using LiDAR’s built-in navigation. It’s easy to control using the app and a range of voice output options can inform you about the condition of your home robot. Regular updates to the software can improve and enhance its performance. The app can be used to remotely control the RCV3 even when you’re away from home.
