The Narwal Freo X Ultra is one of the top robot vacuum and mop combos I've ever tested. Its base station features a large dustbin and water tank and its dual rubber brushes are less prone to hair tangles than single bristles.
Its mopping efficiency is exceptional and its AI mapping is a success in the midst of obstacles. It can also pause the cleaning process and resume from where it left off.
1. Roomba Combo j9+
The Roomba Combo j9+ is one of the most advanced 2-in-1 mop and robot vacuum cleaners available on the market today. It has a sleek, self-emptying Clean Base which can be used to store up to two mopping cycles. It is designed to look just like a desk. It is also the only robot we have tested with an onboard reservoir that automatically washes and replenishes the pads for cleaning after each mopping and vacuum cycle.
The mopping arm sits unobtrusively on top of the unit until it detects hard floors, and then it lowers to begin scrubs. It moves slowly and carefully over surfaces to ensure that it doesn't accidentally spill wet spills or mud on carpeted areas. It is capable of staying out of the way of cords, furniture, and other obstacles.
The iRobot Home App is smarter than many robot vacuums. It allows you to customize the settings of your cleaner and prioritize rooms based on dirtiness, schedule cleaning time, and much more. The app also provides comprehensive maps of your home, seasonal tips, custom cleaning routines, and a variety of smart-home integrations that are easy to use.
The iRobot robot vac/mop utilizes the Imprint Smart Mapping Technology to recognize objects such as sofas, tables, and counters. And it can be controlled by Alexa, Google Assistant, or Siri to ensure that your home is clean and tidy.
The Roomba J9+, unlike other vacuum and mopping robots, creates a map of your house 7 times faster than the previous models. It also labels each area according to floor type to ensure that it will remember where you want it to vacuum or mop. It also comes with the Turbo Mode that boosts suction in difficult areas. In addition, with iRobot's Dirt detective it can be able to identify your habits of cleaning and preferences, allowing it to automatically adjust your cleaning priorities and settings, such as mop scrubbing for the dirtiest parts of your home.
2. Yeedi M12 Pro+
With its top-quality features and user-friendly app controls and user-friendly app controls, the Yeedi M12 Pro+ is a strong competitor in the field of automatic vacuum and mop robots.

Download and launch the Yeedi App and follow the directions on screen to connect your M12 to your Wi-Fi Network. Once connected the app will ask you to choose a unique name for your new robot. It is important to know that the M12 can only be used on 2.4 GHz networks only.
The M12 offers several different cleaning modes for vacuuming and mopping. Its innovative design allows the M12 to identify a space within six minutes and adjust its cleaning path accordingly. Its advanced mopping features include two spinning pads that are electronically controlled water and a "True Edge Adaptive Edge Mopping System" that helps ensure thorough cleaning of all edges of the floor.
In terms of navigation in terms of navigation, the M12 uses LiDAR, IR, and 3D structured light to avoid obstacles. Its sensors do an excellent job of detecting large objects, such as HVAC vents and furniture. However, they may struggle with smaller objects like cables and rags that are small, which could cause the robot to miss certain spots.
The M12 can also detect and navigate stairs thanks to its built-in inclinometer. It also has the ability to automatically return to its OMNI Station to dry and wash mop brushes and to refill its water tank. When the batteries are depleted it can OMNI station can also automatically empty the trash bin and clean itself.
3. Roborock S8 maxV Ultra
The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra robot cleaner is at the forefront of robotic cleaning. It packs a lot 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 sense the carpet it is stepping on. It also has advanced technology and voice assistant features.
It performs impressively as a vacuum and mop, completing our 1,500-square foot test area in a mere 101 minutes before running out of battery and returning to its dock. Its mop automatically cleans itself between uses. This reduces maintenance costs while keeping the pads clean. Additionally, there is a dock sensor that detects when the mop's pad is dirty and prompts washing to keep it clean.
Like its predecessors as well, like its predecessors, the S8 MaxV Ultra features an intelligent system that recognizes household objects including pet waste and shoes using a camera + LIDAR combination. It did well in our test of obstacle avoidance with just one minor glitch in my testing (it was stuck when unwinding a wool ball that was wrapped around its brush arm).
The S8 MaxV Ultra has a new 10,000pa suction power, more than double its predecessor. This makes it a great option for homes with lots of carpeting and different kinds of flooring. The vacuum can also be set to automatically increase suction when moving dirt or crumbs.
Like previous models, multiple docking stations can be set up to automate the cleaning and mopping process. It can also be connected to the plumbing of your home using a special docks that drain and refills the tank automatically after it's finished.
4. Dreametech X40 Ultra
The Dreame X40 Ultra robot vacuum and mop is the company's latest flagship model. It has several distinct features that the less expensive models do not. It is a powerful suction and mop floors effortlessly. It also comes with many advanced features, such as self-detangling roller brushes and auto-extending mop heads. These features make it a great option for hands-free cleaning. The X40 Ultra offers automatic cleaning of its base station and dust collector filter.

It has some advanced options for customising the cleaning schedule, such as selecting a time to start and end each cycle, or deciding if it should vacuum carpets prior to mopping. It can be programmed to clean up areas that are dirty and to increase its suction around pet litter and food bowls. The X40 Ultra is programmable to perform specific tasks, for example, cleaning a bathroom toilet or kitchen sink. It can be programmed to automatically lift the front side brush whenever it detects wet spots, and to clean up debris from 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 many corded vacuums. The only noises are the occasional low hum of its motor, and short intervals of sucking during cleaning. Its navigation system, which makes use of cameras, 3D structured lights, multiple lasers and a 3D structured light to locate and avoid obstructions and obstacles, is awe-inspiring. This makes the X40 Ultra receive one of the top scores in our assessments of obstruction avoidance.
5. Eufy S1 Pro
The Eufy S1 Pro is an extremely powerful vacuum and mop combo that has been designed to be easy for users. The base station, which is gunmetal-colored, is self-emptying and refills its own tank with clean water. It automatically emptying the dust bin into a smaller container, and washes and dries its own mop pad between cleaning sessions. It also has an advanced feature set that allows it to switch between hard and rugs, effectively remove dirt and pet hair from carpets, and clear the thresholds of rooms that are raised.
The S1 Pro has excellent navigation and mapping capabilities, thanks to its internal dToF system. It is able to maintain a low-profile while still providing excellent detection of objects. It can be driven close to walls without hitting them and avoiding steps, and it can also raise its mop when it drives over rugs and short-pile carpets. However, it did struggle in the presence of carpets with a longer pile and also several large, thick piles of dried-on debris.
The S1 Pro is ready to be used right straight out of the box and it only needs just a few minutes of mapping to learn about your home. After that, the map is displayed in the app and rooms can be added or joined as needed. You can also set virtual boundaries and no-go or no-mop zones if there's something you don't want the robot to be able to touch.
The S1 Pro does a great job of cleaning up spills from hard floors due to its rotating mop head that puts 2.2lbs (1kg) of downward pressure on the floor. Its ability to vacuum and mop is a great choice for homes that have two types of flooring. However, its reliance on Eufy cleaning solutions (which are included in the box) could make it less flexible as other robots that permit you to include your own cleaning solutions.
