Robots That Vacuum and Mop

robots that vacuum and mop - please click the next post, offer the convenience of cleaning both dry debris (dust dirt) and wet mess (spills and staining) in one go without the need to switch out devices. They can also save space in comparison to two separate units, particularly in smaller living areas.

A good combination bot will offer excellent navigation and obstacles avoidance. Look for models with docks that let them automatically empty their bins, refill their water tanks and machine-wash the mopping pads.

1. Eufy S1 Pro

It's one of the simplest robots to set up that we've ever tested. Unpacking is easy, and the quick-start guide can get you running in no time. You'll have a a full dust bag, water tank and hard floor solution.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. Its mops spin at high speeds and can apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, which makes short work of dirt, pet hair, and dried sticky spills. The vacuum cleaner comes with four power settings, as well as a selection of attachments and brushes and an intuitive app that lets you choose the type of cleaning you'd like to do for each room.

You can, for example ask the robot to clean the kitchen and the living room thoroughly, but leave the bedroom to itself. The S1 Pro's front colision sensors and smart navigation technology are excellent too and the robot is able to detect tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. The only problem is that it is known to smash into walls and objects at full speed. However an inspection of the history of cleaning on the app will show you exactly what the robot done, where it is going, and which obstacles it has encountered or avoided.

A convenient LCD screen on the docking station tells you when maintenance tasks are required like emptying the debris tray and washing the water tank that is dirty. It's also capable of mixing detergent automatically into the water tank with a 600ml bottle of Eufy's own solution.

Both the S1 Pro vacuum and mop come with plenty of running time and the mop is capable of running for 184 minutes in Quiet mode, while the vacuum is capable of running for 136 minutes in normal mode, before having to recharge or return to the base to replenish. You can view the full cleaning details in the app, which is intuitively laid out and easily understood however we would like to be able to distinguish between a vacuum and a vacuum/mop clean when looking at a cleaned area in the history of cleaning.

2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra

The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the most recent version of Roborock's flagship robot vacuum and mop, is the most up-to-date version. It's not like the model from last year it comes with a double agitator in its mopping pad which significantly improves its carpet cleaning abilities. The S8 Pro Ultra has an improved suction power that enables it to pull up smaller hairs and other particles other robotic cleaners could miss.

This Roborock model, like the other two models I tested it has infrared and a reactive 3D obstacle avoidance technology that helps it avoid obstacles such as walls, furniture, and other obstacles. The S8 Pro Ultra goes one step further by incorporating two cameras that can recognize objects, and determine if they're walls or other surfaces. It can then automatically change its path and clean around them without missing a beat.

It's the most expensive of the three models I've reviewed, but it's also feature-packed. Its sleek, angular design is striking and only has three physical buttons. The power button, which also resumes the cleaning mop function, a button for cleaning that doubles up as a child-lock and a home-button that can send the robot to its dock. The hinged lid opens up to reveal a 350ml trash bin and 200ml tank of water. The water tank will empty itself and the bin auto-refilling.

The only downside I've found with this model is that the VibraRise mop pad mount isn't movable. While you can replace the mopping cloth (if it's required) however, it's a hassle to remove the mount itself to wash manually. I've noticed that any carpet that the best robot vacuum cleaner and mop touches will be in contact with the rough Velcro like fastener on mounts, which can cause scratches.

The S8 Pro Ultra is equipped with a range of intelligent features that include support for Google Home and Amazon Alexa. You can manage and set up these using the Roborock app, which is also home to its maps and advanced mopping settings. The app also allows you to schedule cleanings, monitor the life of batteries and maintenance on components. You'll need to go through a few steps to enable voice control on this model. It's a shame considering how efficient it is otherwise.
