The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo For pets that shed fur A robot vacuum/mop set-up is among the best floor cleaning solutions. This machine can vacuum, mop and clean its own dual mop pad. It also has the greatest suction power of any robot we have tested, at 8,000Pa. It also can save your home's maps and set cleaning schedules from its app. 1. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni The X2 Omni is the latest model in Ecovacs' line of hybrid robot vacuums and mops. This wet-dry model is equipped with the company's upgraded AIVI 3D 2.0 lidar system that offers better mapping and obstacles avoidance. The system is equipped with dual laser LiDAR, similar to that found in self-driving vehicles. It can scan an area up to 32 feet across by 360 degrees. This means more precise mapping and faster response times and better cleaning accuracy. best robot vacuum for pet hair and carpet comes with a rotating mopping mat made of chenille, making it easier to scrub hard spots than conventional mop. During my testing the X2 Omni took just over a minute to clean its pad and begin work. I also noticed that it was more precise than other models that were able to follow a grid-like path around rooms. It was able to navigate the corners and edges of my rooms, and also create “Zambani patterns” both in and out of the middle of the room. It returned to its OMNI Station regularly to empty the dust bin and clean the mop using hot water prior to beginning another cleaning task. Like other Ecovacs products The X2 Omni is a breeze to set up and begin using. It takes just minutes to put the dock in place, plug it in and connect it to your Wi-Fi network at home. Then, you can launch the app to begin your first cleaning task. I was able to customize my floor plan in less than 15 minutes. This included creating limited areas for sweeping and mopping and rearranging the layout of furniture on the wall, and more. The X2 Omni did a great job in my tests, achieving excellent scores in the removal of pet hair and debris cleaning and near-perfect results in edge and crevice cleaning. 2. Deebot T10 Omni The ECOVACS T10 Omni is a powerful mopping and vacuum cleaner. It is the most sophisticated of the T-line offered by the company and features the brand new OZMO Turbo2.0 mopping system that utilizes a dual-spinning brush for superior cleaning than traditional scrubbing. It has YIKO, a natural language processing technology that is the first of its kind. It can respond to various voice commands. The ECOVACS App lets you plan your home, make cleaning schedules and adjust settings. The T10 Omni's biggest flaw is that it cannot switch between vacuuming and mopping in a single operation. The T10 Omni has two modes that require you to attach mop heads to and from the vacuum depending on your requirements. This is fine for most households, but not for those who lead busy lives. The Deebot T10 is an excellent robot vacuum that produces impressive results. It was able to vacuum up more than 96% of the dust we threw at it on our hardwood floors, which is an outstanding performance. It also did a fantastic job on carpet and tile cleaning up more than 90% of dirt and dust. This robotic mop and vacuum has an enormous docking station which offers cool water cleaning for the mop pads, automatic emptying into a 3L disposable bag that's simple to replace, and hot air drying for quick and simple maintenance. It also has a huge water tank that allows for more frequent rinses and dries between mopping runs. The Deebot T10 comes with a wash tray that is built into its base, which is similar to other mopping robots. It uses the wash tray to wash and dry its mop pads when it is using them. But it doesn't use a removable tray, which means dirty water dust, dirt, and other grime gradually build up on the bottom of the tray over time. 3. RoboVac X8 hybrid This is the first mopping model from Anker which is well-known for its robot vacuums. It comes with enhanced smarts, multiple map support and LIDAR scanning, in addition to twin-turbine suction technology that adapts to the surface you're cleaning. It's a mid-range robot cleaner that's stylish, even if its claim of being a one-stop shop for floor cleaning doesn't come true. The X8 Hybrid looks like a regular robotic vacuum cleaner from the top with its circular design with sweeping wheels and an elevated space for sensors. On the opposite side there's a motorized floorbrush as well as a single side brush that pushes dust from the edges into the main path of its'mouth.' It's smaller than the main brushes of the iRobot Roomba S9, which I discovered makes it easier to access under couches and chairs. Its mapping system allows you to set up no-mop areas and specific cleaning zones. It is prone to hitting objects such as its charging station, and isn't very good at climbing over carpets. It was great at collecting pet hair off the floor. In our tests, it picked up 89.5 percent of kitty litter. The X8 Hybrid is controlled via an app, but it also has physical buttons located at the base of the. These buttons allow you to select a cleaning mode or turn off the robot. You can also use them to set no-go zones and view real-time maps. It's also a bit chatty, and will let you know what it's planning to do next (start cleaning) or notify you if something is wrong. 4. ILIFE A4s This model is high-tech and sucks up pet hair, kibble, and other particles with top-quality effectiveness and effortlessly moves around furniture legs. It also comes with an impressive feature set that includes two cleaning modes and a self-emptying dock and a real-time obstacle-avoiding technology. The Wi-Fi enabled device can be controlled best through the Neato App where cleaning schedules are set and maintenance needs are monitored. The X2 Omni is an excellent option for homes with a large hardwood floors and carpet, but it requires some planning ahead to avoid getting stuck on electrical cords, toys, or other unexpected obstacles. In our hardwood floor and kibble tests, this robot performed well and was able to pick up everything from a single grain of rice to several pieces of dog food in just one sweep. It did have some issues with rugs but, generally the vacuum cleaner is perfect for large rooms that contain floors of different types and a mix of pets. The A4s Pro is a bit expensive, but it's a great buy for people who want to be able to leave the house without hands so that they can get out and do other things or take care chores. The A4s Pro also offers a handy auto cleaning mode that automatically increases suction power to deal with tough spills and dirt and it comes with a battery-powered ElectroWall which allows you to define boundaries where the robot is not allowed to enter. This budget-friendly robot from a renowned brand is the cheapest we've ever tested and offers incredible value for money. Its navigation system is basic and uses a super-basic random pathing algorithm that isn't equipped with room mapping capabilities, which makes it less efficient than the other models on this list. It's still able to navigate under furniture and into the corners. And its mopping mode was very effective in our tests by picking up hairs and other debris. 5. Shark iQ Shark's iQ may not be as sturdy as the Roomba S9, but it does better overall at getting rid of pet hair from all surfaces. It does a better job of cleaning carpets with low piles and floors that are not covered. It also makes use of smart-pathing navigational software for greater mobility. It can be directed to a specific area, and comes with a range of advanced automation options, including no-go zones and schedules. It lets you stop and resume cleaning sessions making it ideal for homes with pets. Its self-cleaning brushroll is able to prevent tangles and can hold up to 30 day's worth of dirt. It comes with of angled side brushes that can reach into corners, as well as a multi-stage filter system that collects dust, allergens, and dander. The robot vacuum is built well and feels solid. It has a smartphone application that lets you change the vacuum settings and schedule cleaning sessions ahead of time. The app allows you to view the remaining battery life of the iQ and send push notifications about any issues it encounters during a cleaning process. You can control it using your voice using an Amazon Alexa device or Google Assistant device. If you don't own either of these devices you can mark out areas by using physical boundary markers. The iQ is great in cleaning floors with no dirt, and is able to do well on carpets that are sagging and low-pile. However, it doesn't offer the same level of autonomy as our top picks. It's also costly and the cost of recurring use can add up.
