5 People You Should Meet In The Robots That Vacuum And Mop Industry

Robots That Vacuum and Mop Robots that clean and vacuum offer the convenience of cleaning both dry debris and wet messes in one session without the need to switch devices. They also can save space when compared to two separate units, especially in smaller living areas. A good combination bot should have impressive navigation and obstacle avoidance. Look for models with docks that allow them to automatically empty their bins, refill their water tanks and wash the mopping pads. 1. Eufy S1 Pro It has a lot to offer for its modest price, and it's one of the easiest robots we've tested to install. Unpacking is simple, and the quick-start guide gets you running in no time. It comes with an entire dust bag, water tank, and a hard floor. The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can vacuum and mop well. The mops spin at high speeds and exert 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, making short work of dirt, pet hair and dried sticky spills. The vacuum cleaner has four power settings, as well as a selection of brushes and attachments, and an intuitive app which lets you choose the type of cleaning you'd like to do for each room. For instance, you could opt for the robot to clean up the kitchen and living rooms but be careful with the spare bedroom. The S1 Pro's front collision sensors and smart navigation tech are excellent too as the robot is able to detect tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. Its only minor issue is that it tends to crash into walls and objects at a high speed, but just a glance at the history of cleaning in the app tells you exactly what it's doing and where it's headed and the obstacles it's run into or avoided. A convenient LCD screen on the docking station tells you when maintenance tasks are required, such as emptying the debris tray and cleaning the dirty water tank. It can also mix detergent into the tank by itself with a 600ml of eufy solution. Both the S1 Pro vacuum and mop come with plenty of running time as well, with the mop being capable of running for 184 minutes in Quiet mode, and the vacuum capable of running for 136 minutes in normal mode before needing to recharge or return to the base to refill. You can view the entire cleaning information in the app, which is clearly laid out and easy to understand however we would like to be able to differentiate between a vacuum only or mop clean, when looking at a cleaned area in the history of cleaning. 2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is the most recent version of the company's most popular robot mop and vacuum. Unlike last year's model this one has an agitator that doubles in its mopping pad, which greatly improves carpet cleaning abilities. The S8 Pro Ultra has an improved suction capacity that allows it to remove smaller hairs as well as other debris other robotic cleaners may miss. Like the two other Roborock models I've tested the S8 Pro Ultra has a reactive 3D obstacle avoidance and infrared technology which can help to avoid furniture, walls and other obstacles. But the S8 Pro Ultra takes things an extra step by adding a dual camera which can recognize objects and determine whether they are a wall or another surface. It can then change its path in a way that is automatic and clean around them, without missing a step. It's the most expensive model I've tested however it also comes with the most features. Its sleek and angular design is eye-catching and it has only three physical buttons that include the power button which can also restart cleaning; a mop-only switch that doubles as a child lock and a home button to send the robot back to its dock. The hinged lid opens up to reveal a 350ml dustbin as well as a 200ml of water tank. The water tank self-empties and the bin is auto-filling. The only negative I discovered with this model is that the VibraRise mop pad mount isn't movable. You can change the mopping cloth if required, but it's not easy to remove the mount for washing manually. I've noticed that any plush carpet that the robot passes will be in contact with the rough Velcro-like fastener mechanism on the mount, and that can cause scratches. The S8 Pro Ultra is equipped with a range of smart features including support for Google Home and Amazon Alexa. You can manage and set up these through the Roborock app, which is also home to its maps and advanced mopping settings. The app also lets you to schedule cleanings, monitor the battery life and maintain your components. You'll have to go through some hoops to activate voice control on this model. This is a shame considering how efficient it is otherwise. 3.

It also lets the robot to get under low-profile furniture, making it a great option for smaller apartments and condos with tight spaces. The side brush tilts automatically down when it spots wet spots. This is a wonderful feature that helps the X40 to avoid damaging floors by the frequent back-and-forth movement.

Smart DuoScrub, a new feature of its mops, uses two high-speed mop heads to scrub floors more thoroughly. It also has a suction force of 7,000Pa. This is higher than the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra and Ecovacs Deebots T20 Omni. It can also vacuum up pet hair, small dirt particles, and clean up spills and dirty spots.

The app lets you make these settings or utilize the buttons on the device itself. The app is easy to use and has a lot of options for customizing the cleaning routine, and there are a lot of functions that other robots don't have – such as the Clean Genius mode that automatically increases suction power whenever it detects dust particles rather than using an individual setting. The L20 Ultra is also one of the most elegant robots we've seen in the market, with a white and metallic design that looks classy and sophisticated. It's a little heavier than some of the other two-in-one robots on this list – at around 4kg – but it's not obscenely heavy, and feels sturdy and well-built.
