My Source and Mop Combos
The Narwal Freo X Ultra robot vacuum and mop is among the most effective combos that I've ever tested. Its base station comes with an impressive water tank and dustbin, and its double rubber brush is less likely to cause tangles in hair than single bristles.
Its mopping performance is strong and its AI mapping excels at eliminating obstacles. It also has the capability to pause its cleaning job and resume where it was when it stopped.
1. Roomba Combo j9+
The Roomba Combo J9+ is an all-in-one robot mop and vacuum cleaner that is among the most sophisticated on the market. It comes with a sleek, self-emptying Clean Base that can accommodate up to two full mopping cycles. It is even designed to look like a small table. It's also the only robot mop we've tested that comes with a built-in water reservoir to automatically wash and refill the pads for cleaning after each vacuuming and mopping cycle.
The mopping arm is placed on the top of the unit until it is able to detect hard floors, and then lowers to begin scrubbing. It moves slowly over surfaces to prevent spreading wet or muddy spills across carpeted areas. It is capable in staying out of the path of furniture, cords, and other obstacles.
It's smarter than the majority of robot vacs, too due to the iRobot Home app, which allows you to modify the settings of your cleaner, prioritize rooms by dirtiness set cleaning times and schedules and more. The app also provides detailed maps of your home, seasonal suggestions, custom cleaning routines, and intuitive smart-home integrations.
The iRobot robot vac/mop utilizes the Imprint Smart Mapping Technology to identify objects like tables, sofas, and counters. It can also be controlled by Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri to make cleaning your home hands-free.
Contrary to other mopping and vacuum robots, the Roomba j9+ creates an entire map of your home 7x more quickly than previous models and labels 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 which increases suction in difficult areas. In addition, with iRobot's Dirt detective it can be able to learn your cleaning habits and preferences to automatically adjust cleaning priorities and settings, like mop scrubbing movements, for the dirtiest areas of your home.

The Yeedi M12 Pro+, with its user-friendly app and premium features is a powerful rival in the world of automated vacuum and mop robots. Its powerful suction capabilities and cutting-edge mopping technology make it the perfect cleaning partner for smart homes. Its smart automation and affordable price make it a good choice for households that are on a budget.
To get started with the M12 software, download and open the Yeedi app and follow the on-screen directions to connect to your Wi-Fi network. Once connected, the app will ask you to create a unique name for your new robot. It's important to remember that the M12 can only be used on 2.4 GHz networks only.
The M12 comes with a variety of cleaning modes, including mopping and vacuuming. Its intelligent design allows it to map a room in just six minutes and then adjust its cleaning path according to. Its advanced mopping functionality includes two spinning pads, with electronically controlled water as well as a "True Edge Adaptive Edge Mopping System" that ensures thorough cleaning of all edges of the floor.
Navigationally, the M12 makes use of LiDAR and IR to avoid obstacles. Its sensors are adept at detecting larger objects, like HVAC vents and furniture. They can struggle to detect smaller objects, such as cables or small rags. This could cause the robots to miss spots.
The M12 is also able to detect and navigate up stairs thanks to its built-in inclinometer. It can also automatically return to its OMNI station to dry and wash its mop brushes, and then refill its water tanks. When the batteries are depleted the OMNI station can even automatically empty the trash bin 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 variety of features in a small package. It comes with the largest mopping capacity and a camera that can be used for improved obstacle avoidance and a powerful vacuum with the ability to tell when it's sweeping over carpets. It also comes with advanced technology and voice assistant features.
It is a powerful vacuum and mop cleaner. It was able to complete our 1,500 square feet test area within 101 minutes, before the battery drained and it returned to its dock. Its mop is automatically cleaned between uses. This feature helps reduce the cost of maintenance while keeping the pads clean. In addition to this it has a dock sensor that senses the moment that the mop's pad gets dirty and triggers washing to keep it clean.
Like its predecessors and its predecessors, like its predecessors, the S8 MaxV Ultra features an intelligent system that can detect household objects like shoes and pet waste using a camera + LIDAR combo. It performed well in our test of obstacle avoidance with just one minor glitch during my testing (it got stuck in unwinding a ball of wool that was caught in its brush arm).
The S8 MaxV Ultra features a suction power of 10,000pa, which is more than twice more powerful than its predecessor. This makes it a great choice for homes with a lot of carpeting and various types of flooring. The vacuum can also be set to automatically increase suction when moving over crumbs or dirt.
Like previous models there are multiple docking stations that can be installed in different rooms to help in the process of cleaning and mopping. The docking station is connected to the home plumbing system, and it will drain and replenish the water tank when you're done.

The only noises are the occasional low hum of its motor, and short intervals of sucking during cleaning. Its navigation system is awe-inspiring, as it uses a camera, 3D structured light and multiple lasers to locate and avoid obstacles. this assists the X40 Ultra achieve one of the highest scores for obstacles in our tests.
5. Eufy S1 Pro
The Eufy S1 Pro is an extremely powerful vacuum and mop combo that has been designed to be user-friendly. The base station, which is gunmetal-colored, is self-emptying and refills its own tank with clean water, automatically empties the dust bin into a smaller one and cleans and dries its own mop pad during cleaning sessions. It also has an advanced feature set that allows it to switch between rugs and hard and effectively remove pet hair and dirt from carpets, and clear the thresholds of rooms that are raised.
The S1 Pro's navigation and maps are outstanding, and the internal dToF LiDAR system allows it to keep an unobtrusive appearance while providing top-quality objects avoidance. It drives close to walls without crashing and avoiding steps, and it also automatically raises its mop when driving over rugs and carpets with a short pile. However, it did struggle a little when encountering carpets with a longer pile and also some long, thick messes of dried-on debris.
Like many robots like it, the S1 Pro comes ready to roll out of the box, and requires only a quick initial mapping run to get it used to your home. The map will be displayed in the app, and you can add or merge rooms as you need to. You can also set up virtual boundaries, no-go zones and no-mop zones if you don't want the robot to get into certain items.
The S1 Pro is a great option for homes with different types of flooring as it can mop and vacuum. However, its reliance on a Eufy-branded cleaning solution (which is included in the box) makes it less flexible than other robots that let you create your own solutions. Its ability to mop and vacuum makes it an ideal option for homes with floors of both types but its dependence on a Eufy-branded cleaning product (which is included in the box) can make it less flexible than some other robots that let you create your own solutions.
