Best Automatic Vacuum and Mop Combos
The Narwal Freo X Ultra is one of the best robot vacuums and mops I've ever tested. Its base station comes with a large water tank and dustbin, and its double rubber brush is less likely to tangle hair than single bristles.
Its mopping efficiency is exceptional and its AI mapping is a success in avoiding obstacles. It also has the capability to pause its cleaning work and then resume where it began.
1. Roomba Combo j9+
The Roomba Combo j9+ is one of the most advanced 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop cleaners available on the market today. It comes with an elegant self-emptying Clean Base that can handle up to two full mopping cycles. It is even designed to look like a small table. It's also the sole robot mop we've tested that comes with a built-in water reservoir that automatically cleans and refills the cleaning pads after each mopping and vacuum cycle.
The mopping arm is placed on top of the unit. It lowers when it senses hard surfaces, and it begins to scrub. It is able to move slowly and with care over surfaces so it doesn't accidentally splash wet spills or mud on carpeted areas. It does a great job of staying out of the path of furniture, cords, and other obstacles.
It's smarter than most robot vacuums due to the iRobot Home app, which allows you to modify your cleaner's settings and prioritize rooms based on dirtiness setting cleaning times and schedules and much more. The app comes with precise maps of your home with seasonal suggestions, custom cleaning routines as well as smart home integrations that are intuitive.

Unlike other vacuum and mopping robots, the Roomba j9+ creates a complete map of your home seven times faster than previous models and categorizes each area by floor type, ensuring that it'll always remember to vacuum or mop where you want it. It also comes with a Turbo Mode that boosts suction for difficult spots. And with the full details , it will identify your habits of cleaning and preferences, and automatically adjust cleaning priorities and settings, such as mop scrubbing movements, for the most soiled areas of your home.

The M12 offers a variety of cleaning modes, including mopping and vacuuming. Its intelligent design allows it to create a floor plan in just six minutes and alter its cleaning route accordingly. Its advanced mopping functionality includes dual spinning pads with electronically controlled water and a "True Edge Adaptive Edge Mopping System" that ensures thorough cleaning of all floor edges.
In terms of navigation In terms of navigation, the M12 makes use of LiDAR, IR, and 3D structured light to avoid obstacles. The sensors are capable of finding larger objects, like HVAC vents, and furniture. However, they struggle with smaller objects, like cables and rags that are small, which could cause the robot to miss certain spots.
The M12's built-in inclinometer enables it to detect and navigate stairs. It can also be programmed to return to its OMNI station to wash and dry mop brushes and replenish its water tanks. When the batteries are depleted it can OMNI station can even automatically empty the bin of dust and clean itself.
3. Roborock S8 maxV Ultra
The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra robot cleaner is at the cutting edge of robotic cleaning. It packs a lot of features in a tiny package. It comes with the largest mopping capacity, a camera for enhanced obstacles to avoid and a powerful vacuum with the ability to tell the carpet it is stepping on. It also comes with advanced intelligence and voice assistant features.
It is an extremely powerful mop and vacuum cleaner. It was able to complete our 1,500 square foot test area in just 101 minutes, but the battery drained and it returned to its dock. Its mop automatically cleans itself between uses. This feature reduces costs for maintenance while keeping its pads clean. In addition to this the dock sensor that can detect when the mop pad is dirty and triggers a wash cycle to keep it clean.
Like its predecessors and its predecessors, like its predecessors, the S8 MaxV Ultra features an intelligent system that can recognize objects of the home, such as shoes and pet waste with a camera + LIDAR combo. It did well in our test of obstacle avoidance with just one minor glitch in my testing (it was stuck while unwinding a ball of wool that was caught in its brush arm).
The S8 MaxV Ultra comes with a suction force of 10,000pa which is nearly twice more powerful than its predecessor. This makes it an excellent option for homes with carpeting in abundance and various types of flooring. The vacuum can be programmed to automatically increase the suction as it passes over crumbs or dust.
Similar to previous models, there are multiple docking stations that can be positioned in different rooms to in the process of cleaning and mopping. It can even be connected to the plumbing of your home using a special docks that drain and fills up the water tank automatically after it's finished.
4. Dreametech X40 Ultra
The Dreame X40 Ultra is the latest flagship robot vacuum and mop from Dreame and comes with several features that the company's less expensive models do not have. It is a powerful suction system and can mop floors with ease. It has many advanced features such as auto-extending mop head and self-detangling rollers for brush. The X40 Ultra offers automatic cleaning of its base station as well as a dust collector filter. The mop pads are cleaned with hot water and drained, and the dirty water tank is automatically emptied after every cleaning session.
It provides advanced options to tailor the cleaning schedule. For instance you can select a specific start and end time for each cycle or whether it should vacuum carpets first before mopping. It can also be told to clean areas that are particularly filthy and choose to boost its suction power around litter boxes for cats as well as pet food bowls. The X40 Ultra is programmable to accomplish specific tasks, like cleaning the bathroom toilet or kitchen sink. It can be programmed to automatically lift the front side brush whenever it detects wet spots, and clean up debris around corners and baseboards.
The X40 Ultra has a simple user interface that offers a variety of features. It is easy to use and set up. It is quieter than other corded vacuums. The only noises are the occasional low hum of its motor, and short intervals of sucking during cleaning. Its navigation system, which uses cameras, 3D structured lights, multiple lasers and a 3D-structured light to identify and avoid obstructions and obstacles, is impressive. This assists in helping the X40 Ultra receive one of the top scores in our assessments of obstacles to avoid.
5. Eufy S1 Pro
The Eufy S1 Pro is an amazingly powerful vacuum and mop combination that was designed to be easy for users. The gunmetal base station automatically fills up its own tank with clean water, empties the dustbin into a smaller container and ishes and drys its own mop pads between cleaning sessions. It also has an advanced feature set that allows it to switch between rugs and hard, effectively remove dirt and pet hair from carpets, and clear high thresholds in rooms.
The S1 Pro's navigation and mapping capabilities are excellent, with the dToF LiDAR system in the internal unit allowing it to maintain the appearance of a slim profile while providing top-quality objects avoidance. It can drive close to walls without crashing, and avoids steps, and also raises its mop automatically when driving over rugs or short-pile carpets. However, it struggled with longer-pile carpets and large, thick messes of dried-on debris.
Like all robots, the S1 Pro comes ready to take off from the box, and requires only an initial mapping session to learn its way around your home. The map will then be displayed in the app and you can add or join rooms as needed. You can also set virtual boundaries as well as no-go zones or no-mop zones in case there's something you don't want the robot to be able to touch.
The S1 Pro does a great job of removing messes from hard floors due to its rotary mop head that exerts 2.2lbs (1kg) of downward pressure on the floor. Its ability to vacuum and mop makes it a good option for homes with both types of flooring, but its reliance on a Eufy-branded cleaning product (which is included in the box) can make it less flexible than other robots that allow you to create your own solutions.
