Robots that mop and vacuum offer the convenience of removing dry debris (dust dirt, grit) and wet messes (spills or stains) in one session without having to swap out devices. They can also save storage space compared to having two separate units, particularly in smaller living spaces.
A good combination bot will provide excellent navigation and obstacle avoidance. Look for models that have docks that let them automatically empty their bins, fill their water tanks and machine-wash the mopping pads.
1. Eufy S1 Pro
It's one of the easiest robots to set up that we've ever tested. Unpacking is easy and the quick-start guide can get you running in no time. It comes with a full dust bag, water tank and a hard floor solution.
The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. The mops are spun at a high speed and utilize 2.2 pounds (1kg of force) to quickly remove dirt, pet hair and sticky dried spills. The vacuum cleaner has four power settings, a range of attachments and brushes and an intuitive app that lets you choose the type of cleaning you'd like to do for each room.
For instance, you can opt for the robot to do a deep clean in the kitchen and living rooms but take it easy in the spare bedroom. The S1 Pro has excellent front collision sensors and smart navigation technology. It can detect small obstacles that other models can't. Its only drawback is that it can smash into walls and other objects at full 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 the obstacles it's run into or avoided.
A handy LCD screen on the docking station informs you when maintenance tasks need to be done including emptying the debris tray, and cleaning the dirty water tank. It's also capable of mixing detergent automatically into the water tank, using a 600ml bottle of Eufy's own solution.
Both the S1 Pro vacuum and mop are able to run for a long time and the mop is able to operate for up to 184 minutes in quiet mode, while the vacuum is able to do 136 minutes in normal mode, before needing to recharge or return to the base to refill. You can view the complete cleaning details within the app, which is well laid out and easily understood however we would like to be able to differentiate between a vacuum and mop clean, when examining a cleaned area in the cleaning history.
2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the most recent version of Roborock's most popular robot vacuum and mop is the most up-to-date version. It's not like the model from last year, this one features a double agitator in its mopping pad, which significantly improves its carpet cleaning abilities. The S8 Pro Ultra has an improved suction capacity that enables it to pull up smaller hairs as well as other debris other robotic cleaners may miss.
Like the other two Roborock models I've tried, this one has reactive 3D obstacle avoidance and infrared technology which helps it avoid furniture, walls and other obstacles. But the S8 Pro Ultra takes things a step further by incorporating a dual camera that can recognize objects and determine whether they're a wall or another surface. It is able to change its path automatically and clean around them without missing a step.
This is the most expensive of the three models I've reviewed but it's also loaded with features. Its sleek and angular design is striking and only has three buttons that are physically accessible. The power button, which also restarts the cleaning mop button, which doubles up as a child-lock, and a home-button to take the robot to its dock. The hinged lid can be opened to reveal a 350ml dustbin as well as a 200ml tank of water. The water tank automatically emptys and the bin auto-refills.
The only downside I found to this model was that the VibraRise mop pads mount isn't movable. It is possible to replace the mopping cloth when required, but it's a challenge to remove the mount for manual washing. I've found any plush carpet that the robot vacuum reviews touches will come into contact with the rough Velcro like fastener system on mount, which can cause abrasions.
The S8 Pro Ultra has a number of smart features that include support for Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Siri. The Roborock app lets you manage and configure these features. It also has maps and advanced mopping options. The app also lets you to schedule cleanings, track the life of batteries and maintenance on components. You'll need to jump through a series of steps to activate voice control on this model. It's a shame, considering how efficient it is otherwise.

It also allows the robot to reach under low-profile furniture which makes it a great choice for small apartments and condos with limited space. The side brush automatically swivels downwards when it detects wet spots, which is a nice addition that assists the X40 avoid damaging floors with the frequent back-and-forth movement.
