Best Robot Vacuums and Mop Combos
The best method to keep your home tidy is to use a robot vacuum. It can remove pet hair, dust, and other debris on surfaces.
Some robots connect to smart assistants like Alexa and Google Assistant for a hands-free experience. Find models that recharge and pick up where they left off.
1. iRobot s8
This smart robot vacuum and mop is an excellent option for a wide range of homes. It can be used to vacuum and mop and is extremely navigable using both GPS and laser sensors, and offers a broad range of features and controls accessible via the app. It has a handy feature that lets you create Cleaning zones in areas that require additional attention, and also to create Keep Out zones in areas that you don’t wish it to go. It also gets software updates, similar to all Roomba products, that enhance it over time.
It’s costly but it’s also among the most advanced robot Vacuum sale vacuums that ZDNet has tested. It has a high-powered battery that can sweep an entire home in less than two hours, and it can switch between vacuuming and mopping with the press of one button. And unlike other self-emptying robots that require you to empty the bin after each run, it automatically emptys into a larger waste container above its charging dock.
It also has a number of other features, such as intelligent obstacle avoidance, which utilizes a camera along with processor-powered smarts to identify obstacles. It’s not often damaged or trapped during a cleaning cycle and is the best in avoiding power cables and other objects I’ve tested. It’s not as precise at detecting pet waste or other hazards.
2. Eufy RoboVac Hybrid X8
Eufy is owned by Anker It has become an iconic name in the world of low-cost robot vacuums. However, it didn’t provide a model that could also mop. That changes with the X8 Hybrid, which has an impressive array of modern features that can compete with more expensive models.
The laser navigation system is the primary selling point of this machine. The X8 makes use of the laser mapping system, which is more precise than the previous Eufy devices. It also takes significantly less time to create a comprehensive picture of your space and stores multiple maps, which is ideal for multi-floor homes.
The X8 is still a decent vacuum on bare floors and can sling debris over its side brushes and into its 400ml dust bin with ease. The Tyres of the X8, despite their circular shape, are very adept in grabbing corners and edges. Our tests revealed that it was able to remove 90 percent of the fur on hard floors.
The basic mopping mode uses the same water reservoir as the vacuuming mode. While this is a good option for loose spills however, you aren’t able to regulate the amount of water it uses, which will limit its effectiveness on more serious stains. That said, it does an admirable job of removing pet hair, and has a higher pickup rate than the Roborock S7.
3. Miele RX2
Known for quietly effective home appliances, Miele’s RX2 robot vacuum comes with outstanding cleaning power, beautiful design, and a great navigation. However, it has a few operational oddities that keep it from ranking as the top overall smart robot vacuum.
The RX2 is equipped with a dual-sensor mapping system that uses a LIDAR to map a room, and a pair 3D scanning cameras to detect and staying clear of obstacles (such as furniture legs or pet waste). Once the room is mapped the app allows you to designate virtual no-go zones and favorite sections that the robot will automatically clean. You can also manually change cleaning modes, start a manual clean or see live feeds from the cameras onboard from the main screen.
The RX2 is equipped with excellent sensors that detect furniture and other obstructions in a flash. Its sweeping and suction power are top-of-the-line, picking up surface litter from carpets of medium pile and dust on floors with no floor. It’s not the fastest robotics available. It’s not the greatest climber, and it has problems with metal threshold transition strips.
A lot of people purchase a robotic vacuum to enjoy the convenience of setting up a schedule using an app and not thinking about it for weeks at a time. It is essential for a robot able to do the job so our ZDNet team has tested and reviewed some of the most popular models in order to help you choose the best one for your house.
4. Shark ION
This budget robovac that looks just like the other, but comes with some extra features and a better performance. Its intelligent mapping system creates 3D and 2D maps of your home and makes use of to navigate and stay clear of obstructions. It can even detect common obstacles such as furniture legs and power cords in real-time. This combination of sensors together with a bump sensor, and an infrared sensor for dropping that keeps it away from the stairs make it one of the fastest vacuums we’ve tried.
In our tests, it was able to moved over large shag rug and didn’t get stuck on them (like the RoboVac 11s or Roomba 690). Its navigation capabilities were impressive. Its composite score for flooring and carpet was higher than the competition, and Robot vacuum sale it was able to pick up 98.5 percent of the pet hair from our laboratory test samples.
Its controls are a bit simpler than competitors. There’s an oblong cleaning button at the top, and you can start it from the app or by voice commands using Alexa or Google Assistant. You can also set a schedule for your daily or weekly cleans, create areas that are not allowed to be cleaned, and check its cleaning history. In a smart dark gray plastics, Ion feels sturdy and is attractive in your home. The rear dust bin is easy to access for emptying and removing the filter is the same.
5. Eufy 11S
Eufy 11S is a great option if you’re looking for an automated vacuum cleaner that is simple and simple at a low cost. It lacks some of the advanced features, like digital mapping and Alexa integration, which are found in higher-end models however, if you don’t require those functions you can save some money with this model.
This amarey robot vacuum is simple to use and set up. It doesn’t require a smartphone app or Wi-Fi pairing, but it does come with the ability to control the remote with a remote that lets you choose between different modes and alter the suction level. It also allows you to manually take the robovac off on a scheduled cleaning.
During our tests, we discovered that the 11S was extremely efficient in removing pet fur and dirt from carpets and floors with low pile. Its slim profile made it possible to get under low-hanging furniture and other objects that heavier robots were unable to get at. It was able to pass easily over thresholds of doorways and move from one floor type to another.

It also suggests that you clean the dustbin, change the filters and clean or change the brushes as required.
Roomba 990 by iRobot
The Roomba 980 is iRobot’s flagship robot vacuum. It’s costly but it’s an excellent performer and is arguably the most sophisticated robot vacuum you can buy. Its self-navigating features and environmental mapping are a wonder to behold. It is more sophisticated in its automation than its competitors, including the capability to set up virtual boundary markers using its mobile application. It’s a dependable robot vacuum, even if its application is a bit slow and the 980’s wheels spin out when rolling over cables.
We really like the 980 due to its iAdapt2.0 navigation sensors as well as visual simultaneity mapping and localisation (or vSLAM) to remember the floor plan of your home. It will then use the information to create a consistent and efficient cleaning path for every cycle. The result is cleaner floors and a more efficient robot vacuum cleaner than the majority of high-end robots.
The 980’s other features include dual multi-surface rubber brushes that pick up dirt from hard floors and carpet and the spinning brush that sweeps debris into the robotic vacuum’s bin. Its floor tracking sensors help it navigate across furniture and along edges, and Cliff Detect prevents the Roomba from falling down stairs. It will also return to the base station for simple charging between sessions. Although the 980’s battery lifespan and bin size aren’t as impressive as some other robot vacuums, it’s a reliable and solid machine that will keep your floors spotless for hours and hours.
