1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
The black and gloss gunmetal Omni S1 Pro from Eufy is among the most impressive robot vacuums and mop combinations available. It uses lidar for navigation, creating maps of rooms and floors.
The S1 was capable of mapping my downstairs quickly, which includes linoleum flooring in the dining area, kitchen, and bathrooms and a medium-pile and a large rug. It was able to drive right up to walls without crashing into them, and even managed to cross thresholds for rooms that are raised without problem, but it sometimes had trouble navigating down the stairs in one move. The S1 also did a fantastic job cleaning hard floors, with its mop driving smoothly on its flat side against the floor and lifting itself when it reached carpet or rugs.
Before each mopping session, the docking station of the S1 automatically emptys its trash bin and refills the water tank with clean filtered ozonated water. The dock also adds a cleaning solution to the water to ensure deep cleaning. The S1's water tank holds enough for about 12 cleaning sessions before it has to be empty, but it will differ based on how often you use the mop.
The S1 requires periodic maintenance, just like other 2-in-1 robots. You'll need to wash out the dirty tank to keep it from becoming blocked. Also, you'll need to clean the swivel wheels and sensors frequently to avoid them from becoming clogged with dust or dirt. Overall the S1 is simple to maintain, particularly compared to other models which require more effort to maintain.

The mops are also cleaned using heated water and dried in the base station when required. The mops are also filled from the top of the base station as needed.
3. Dreame X40 Ultra

4. Roomba Q5 Pro
A robot vacuum does an excellent job of removing dirt and debris but it's not always able to reach every last bit of dust. It is important to clean often, at least once a week. This is especially true for dust that accumulates in corners, on shelves and in crevices in your couch. Roborock's Q5 Pro, a 2-in-1 robot that vacuums and mop, is made to do exactly that. It is simple to connect it to your WiFI network at home and also works with Alexa or Apple Siri.
The Q5 is an unadorned version of the company's more expensive S-series models, which include the flagship Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra. It is equipped with the same LIDAR mapping sensor, but saves on cost by removing the mopping functionality and by using a less expensive plastic body.
The Q5 remains one of the most powerful vacuums and mopping machines we've seen at this price even though it's not able to wipe your floor. It has a powerful suction of 5500Pa and an auto-empty system so you don't need to empty the bin by hand each time. It also features a smart app that lets you set the type of floor and schedule cleanings, and an automatic refill of the water tank and wash system that allows hands-free operation.
The mops also stand out with their 2700Pa power to combat pet hair and dirt on carpets as well as hard floors. The Q5 was among the few robots we tested to not have a problem with high-pile area rugs and carpets. However, it was able to not handle kitty litter or cable tangles. This isn't a surprise as it doesn't include AI-powered obstacle-avoidance.
