The 5 best robot vacuum and mop combos in 2025 for every home and budget
A robot vacuum and mop combo, is the perfect one-two punch for hands-free cleaning. Keeping dirty messes from getting caked on with daily mopping can make a huge difference in the look and feel of your floors while simultaneously vacuuming rids floors of dust, hair, and other small debris. Robot mopping has improved greatly over the last several years, from its navigation prowess to overall cleaning effectiveness, so it's a feature worth seriously considering if you have hard flooring. Having the water capabilities usually doesn't increase the price much either, but if you're really against it, then we also tested the best robot vacuums. To get a sense of the best vacuum and mop combos, I tested and compared eight recently released models. I've also tested dozens of units over the last several years, from the high-end Roborock Saros Z70 with a robotic arm to the uniquely shaped Matic. All of this helps inform my understanding of the cleaning industry, which is ripe with innovation and continues to evolve rapidly. With the specific eight models considered in this testing round, vacuum and mopping performance were the main considerations, but everything from physical size, self-cleaning abilities, and smart features to app design was considered to recommend the best picks across a range of budgets and needs. As the dust settled, it became clear that the top pick should be the Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo because it combines effective wet and dry cleaning with an easy-to-use experience. Its mid-range price point, combined with some high-end features, makes it a terrific value for a wide range of people. If you're looking to truly upgrade, and want all the latest technological features, we recommend the Roborock Saros 10R because of its sophisticated navigation and the detailed settings available in its mobile app. Our picks of the best robot vacuum and mops Best overall: Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro - See at Amazon Best overall Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro Robot Vacuum The Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro packs a cleaning punch, vacuuming and mopping with a ferocity few robots can muster. And it does so at a reasonable price. Check price at Amazon Check price at Best Buy Check price at Shark What we like Excellent scrubbing and thorough vacuuming Detaches mop pad automatically when not needed Raises mop pad raises higher than most other robots around carpets What we don't like Noisy Oversimplified app Water reservoirs are smaller than competitors The Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro is a cleaning powerhouse masked as a generic-looking robot. It has solid vacuuming and mopping performance, along with nearly unmatched spot cleaning thoroughness. When I had it cleaning specific messes in my kitchen on hardwood floors, it picked up nearly 100% of the coffee grounds, flour, and crushed cereal pieces. It refused to be outdone by crumbs. The robot wasn't the quickest to finish spot cleans compared to other robots, but that's because it covered every inch of space, spinning around 360 degrees throughout, to make sure it wasn't leaving any spot untouched. Beyond its ability to tackle specific messes, I really liked that this value-priced cleaning assistant would leave its mopping pad behind at its docking station when it was only tasked with vacuuming duty. That's a feature previously reserved for higher-priced premium units. When it was tackling wet and dry tasks at the same time, it automatically lifted and angled its damp pad much higher than other devices when crossing over carpet. It cleaned corners well, getting nearly all of the test debris I put in a taped-off corner off the hardwood floors. It was better in this area than nearly all the other units I've used, minus the pricey Roborock Z70. While I can't vouch for its handling of pet hair, it avoided getting human hair tangled in its brushes. The PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro's base station is fully stacked with features, too. It accommodates liquid cleaning solution in the water tank (sold with one bottle) and has room for an odor-neutralizing pod (one included), but the station remains relatively compact. It's NeverTouch moniker isn't just for show. The station will wash and dry the mop pad. While this is an excellent cleaner with a lot of nice touches, it isn't flawless. I found it to be a little noisy, both when it's actually working and after it's returned to its dock. It didn't register the loudest decibel level compared to other units, but its plastic is a little creaky with noise coming from the wheels and moving parts, beyond the sound of suction. The Shark mobile app is another area where it could use a few tweaks. I like that the app tries to simplify the experience. Still, I wish it offered more control over settings like choosing the suction level and amount of water used for mopping, before a user-initiated job, like most other units do. Those are minor complaints, however, and I was more than satisfied to let it handle the wet and dry cleaning as it saw fit. For a retail price of $999, and often on sale for cheaper, the Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro is a terrific value and worth adding to most homes. Best budget iRobot Roomba 205 DustCompactor Combo Robot The Roomba 205 DustCompactor Combo ditches the base station in favor of a dustbin made to pack dirt in tightly. This approach isn't perfect, but this robot can help schedule routine cleaning work. Check price at iRobot What we like Strong vacuuming performance No bulky base station and can handle weeks of dust collection onboard What we don't like Mopping attachment takes effort to attach and refill Dustbin can be tricky to empty New Roomba app is a step back from old version Thicker profile keeps it from going under low profiles Specifics Suction:Not listed; four levels Dustbin:Up to 60 days Mop type:Single pad Self-cleaning:No Battery:120 minutes Navigation:LiDar App:iOS, Android Warranty:1 year The new iRobot Roomba 205 DustCompactor Combo is a new leaf turning over for the company as it tries to be more economical in building cleaning robots. This model is a good example as it ditches a base station to keep the product smaller and cheaper. Instead, it uses a dust bin compression system that allows it to house up to 60 days' worth of dirt inside the robot. The ultimate benefit is that it doesn't have multiple components taking up extra space. That means it can then be tucked into more areas around your home. In practice, I found this allowed it to be placed in my kitchen, where no other models with their stations were able to fit previously. In terms of cleaning performance, the Roomba 205 Combo busted my initial hesitations and ran through vacuuming and mopping tests with a high skill level. The mopping was its weakest point since it essentially drags a pad behind it. And yet, even in its basic form, it could still remove messes from dirty floors. In the wet and dry test with flour, coffee grounds, and crushed cereal, it removed almost 100% of the items. Of course, without a base station, there is more manual work associated with mopping. I found the exercise of hooking the microfiber mop pad and its water tank into the bottom of the unit annoying, and cleaning it mildly infuriating. For one thing, you'll need to be careful getting the pad to the sink, not dropping the dirt stuck to it. While the dust compression system is notable, and did work to stuff more dirt into its bin than normal, I had some initial hiccups with it. The most common was my inability to understand its orientation and correctly open it. There were a few times I separated the container from the wrong side, and the contents spilled out. That might be on me, but it's hard to remember how to use it when it happens so infrequently. The Roomba 205 Combo uses a brand new mobile app that's a step back from the previous one. It can now track real-time location of the robot in your home, but the app's layout could use a design overhaul. The functionality is there, but I found the new app's terminology and placement of items to be confusing. The 205 Combo will be best for people with more carpeted area than hard flooring, but who still want the ability to run a damp mop pad around occasionally. This device has regularly been on sale for $300. We think that's a reasonable price for some of its shortcomings but wouldn't recommend paying more for it. Instead, waiting for one of the other picks to go on sale will probably be a better value. Best mid-range The Roborock Qrevo Series, specifically the QV 35A, blends strong suction with a reliable mopping system and advanced navigation. It's ideal for households with mixed surfaces. The Roborock's overall performance and mid-range $599 price make it a killer combo without breaking the bank. The QV 35A often tackled testing challenges with the skills of more costly units. While vacuuming and mopping hardwood kitchen floors, the QV 35A cleaned coffee grounds, flour, and crushed cereal thoroughly. It managed to clear more than 90% in each of the staged food tests. Its mopping pads don't extend out, but they had enough force to clear normal kid spills. The downside is that it doesn't lift the pads very high when traversing carpet. Medium and high piles will probably touch the damp pads. You can get around that by having it vacuum before mopping. Its vacuum-only tests across a carpet had nearly identical results. It wasn't perfect with cleaning corners, grabbing around 70% of the test flour, but it did better than average. Its lack of extending brushes or pads might be a reason to consider pricier Roborock units with those. The base station can automatically wash the mop pads and air-dry them. Using cold air takes longer than hot air, so expect six to 10 hours, compared with two or three for hot air. When it comes time to perform some inevitable manual maintenance, there's a removable plate that can be cleaned in the kitchen sink. The biggest downside is that its base station is among the tallest and might present logistical challenges when placed in some homes. I was pleased with the QV 35A's navigation and object avoidance. It doesn't have the latest vision system that's present on the Roborock Saros 10R (more on that below), but while maneuvering around, it managed to avoid things like couch legs and shoes just fine. People buying their first robot vacuum and mop should be ecstatic about this cleaner's capabilities. It uses Roborock's polished app and is largely self-sufficient. However, it stops short of offering the latest technologies, a small tradeoff for its competitive pricing. Best splurge Roborock Saros 10R The Roborock Saros 10R is a work horse that offers a true hands-off, automated cleaning experience. It's Roborock's thinnest design yet to easily slide under furniture and has excellent obstacle avoidance tech. Check price at Amazon Check price at Roborock What we like Low-profile design with a sleek docking station Excellent cleaning performance on hardwood floors No-tangle brushes actually work Specifics Self-emptying:Yes Mopping:Yes Suction Power:Up to 20,000 Pa Dust bin capacity:270 mL on robot, 2L on dock Water tank:3L clean, 3L dirty Battery:180 minutes run time (6400mAh) Warranty:1 year The Saros 10R is one of the most refined robot vacuum and mop combos on the market. It has a sleek profile that's able to fit through dining room chair legs and under most toe kick areas. It moves nimbly and avoids objects with ease. In my testing, I found the robot's vision technology (StarSight Autonomous System 2.0) to be excellent at avoiding thin metal end table legs, wires, and other common household items. It has more sensors that can better understand 3D space, so it's also able to get close to furniture and baseboards without being harsh or damaging. It cleans well across hardwood and carpet and can even traverse high-pile rugs thanks to its lifting mechanics. The Saros 10R features a lot of the current technologies of the even more sophisticated Saros Z70, which has a first-of-its-kind mechanical arm to pick up small objects. Still, it isn't burdened with the extra cost of that part or the growing pains of this first-generation feature. The Saros 10R has a fully loaded docking station as well. It can wash and dry the mopping pads with hot water and hot air to keep them fresher than those using cool air and water. When it isn't mopping, the unit can detach the pads and leave them in the station. It even has an auto detergent dispenser to keep things from getting smelly. On the vacuuming front, I found the 10R's split brush design to be brilliant at keeping hair from getting tangled. Long human hair has a way of getting caught in most vacuum brushes, but after several months, I could barely find a trace of it lingering on the brushes. Best for small spaces eufy Omni C20 The eufy Omni C20 is more compact, both the robot and its base station, but it doesn't sacrifice auto-emptying dirt or auto-washing its mop pads. It's a solid alternative to the growing size of some combo units, at an approachable price point. Check price at Amazon What we like Compact unit and base station Solid navigation and path planning Strong scrubbing What we don't like Doesn't lift mop high enough to avoid touching thicker rugs Obstacle avoidance isn't quite as good as some others (as evident by one accident with a plant) Felt a little flimsy Hair wrapped around brush roll The eufy Robot Vacuum Omni C20 is a compact, affordable robot vacuum and mop combo that's ideal for apartments or tight spaces. It includes all the benefits of a dedicated base station that's able to collect dust and handle clean and dirty mopping water, but sheds a lot of the bulkiness found in similar products. It's important to note that there are smaller options — the Roomba 205 is one — but those units without self-emptying stations typically require more regular maintenance. Also worth noting, the vacuum and mop bot itself is trim at 3.3 inches, almost an inch less in width and half-inch shorter than the Ecovacs T50, so it can fit through narrower spaces. The Omni C20 sucked dirt and mopped well in general, but it performed better overall across hard surfaces than on carpet. Its mopping performance was better than I expected from its basic dual mopping pads with average rotations and force. It cleaned an average of 95% of the various food items spread in the testing space. Don't expect it to be a scrubbing demon, but it handled fresh spills and debris just fine. It also did well in the corner test despite not having brushes that extended, though it had a little trouble pulling test material from a rug, likely because its body is more lightweight and petite. I also noticed visible strands of hair wrap around the brush roll, and more would probably add over measuring the vacuum's volume on its max setting, it was quite loud compared to other units. It hit a peak level of 71 decibels near the top of all the vacuums tested. However, when using the Omni C20 on its lower, default settings, I didn't find it bothersome. What else we tested Ecovacs Deebot T50 Max Pro: This is a viable contender for large homes with bumpy terrain of rugs, and modest thresholds. It ran smoothly and generally mopped and vacuumed well on hardwoods, but it has a larger size with a bulky base station, didn't handle carpets as well as expected, and minor trouble with cleaning corners, which didn't put it ahead of some of the other choices. Narwal Freo x Ultra: If you can find it on sale, this is another one worth considering. It's an older model from early 2024 that Narwal has deprioritized in favor of the Flow and Freo Z10. Yet it's still highly capable (with AI dirt detecting features where it will keep cleaning until it senses the floors are clean) and one of the quietest cleaning robots we've seen. Instead of the base station serving as a place to offload debris, all debris stays within the robot using a dust compression system that contributes to its unobtrusive operation. Read our full Narwal Freo x Ultra review. Eureka J15 Pro Ultra: This is a well-rounded machine that didn't perform quite as well in wet or dry tests as some of the other units. Specifically, it was worse than competitors at picking up coffee grounds and cereal on carpet and cereal on hardwood. Dreame X50 Ultra: Dreame's flagship is a smooth-driving, top-of-the-line unit. Its extending side brush is fantastic, and its moving lidar sensor helps lower its overall height to get under low profiles. Weirdly, it had trouble driving over my kitchen rug without folding it up as it drove over, despite its ability to lift itself over massive thresholds. The X50 was also one of the louder ones on its max setting. Dreame X40: The predecessor to the X50, this highly capable machine can now be frequently found for half off. It's packed full of the expected features, plus home surveillance and top-tier obstacle detection and avoidance. In our tests, it was among the best at vacuuming and mopping, but it also operated loudly and struggled in corner cleaning. Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1: Shark's mopping technology has truly evolved from the swappable pulsing mop pad of the Shark Matrix. For its price, the Shark Matrix Plus is an impressive, versatile machine that vacuums and mops. It features a bagless self-empty base, and the mop head scrubs for a deep clean while vacuuming at the same time. Our reviewer liked it overall as an affordable self-emptying vacuum/mop combo. However, she found the app was buggy and didn't like how the dustbin doesn't empty into the base when in mop mode. Read our full Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 review. Bissell SpinWave Pet: The Bissell SpinWave has been around for years at this point, and was one of the early designs to include a spinning mop attachment. It's a budget buy, with none of the self-cleaning bases of today's best models or even home mapping, though it does have the necessary ability to differentiate between flooring and carpets. It vacuumed especially well in corners and on hardwood, and it operates quietly. However, it gets stuck easily, and you can't set no-go zones. What to consider when buying a robot vacuum and mop combo Floor type: Mopping can be an important part of cleaning hard flooring types, such as wood, tile, and vinyl. If the floor plan where you'll be using the cleaner is more than 50% hard material, then having a vacuum and mop combo is probably worth the investment. However, if your space is primarily carpet, then dealing with the clean and dirty water might not be worth the minor inconveniences. Mop type: Not all mop pads are created equally. If you constantly have spilled juice or sticky food bits on your kitchen floor, you'll want to consider mopping options with the strongest down-force pressure. We found the dual spinning mop pads to be plenty effective in various tests. Typically, more rotations and stronger down pressure force will result in better scrubbing performance. More advanced devices can also return to their stations after cleaning a particular room or square footage to keep the pads fresh before cleaning again. The most basic designs are microfiber pads, which are reusable, that drag behind the robot, and likely use either downward pressure or vibrations to agitate any stuck-on mess. The newer roller mops that clean and re-wet the brush during the cleaning process — like what you see in the best wet-dry vacuums — without needing to revisit the dock, show a lot of promise for even better performance. Mop lifting: A lot of mid-range to premium-priced robots advertise being able to lift damp mopping pads during the cleaning process. We've found that most of those still drag or touch on medium pile carpet and rugs. The Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro is one example that did a great job of angling its mop pad to avoid touching. The best solution here for delicate rugs is to look for a unit that can automatically detach its mopping pads in its station or vacuum before mopping. Navigation tech: Smarter mapping leads to more efficient cleaning and better coverage. Most companies have coalesced around LiDAR technology, which bounces light off objects to map rooms, but none are exactly the same. We've found Roborock to be one of the best at mapping and object avoidance, as its newest devices each year have more insights into the environment around them. Maintenance: Especially with a mopping combo unit, the first step to reducing manual maintenance is to get a unit with a self-emptying base station with water reservoirs. Adding air drying and other automated features can further push off the time that regular maintenance happens. Units without self-cleaning or warm air drying will need to be addressed directly after each mopping cycle to prevent any mold growth or bacteria from forming. Dust bin and water tank size: A larger tank can clean more space without refilling. Although this aspect is worth considering, nearly all of the models we've tested provided at least a week of modest mopping without needing to return. The self-cleaning robots have separate clean and dirty water tanks; the clean tanks are for mopping water and flushing the mop pads, while the dirty water tanks collect all the dirty water from the cleaning process. Special features: The coolest features will cost extra, but they can add new dimensions to your robot experience. The Saros 10R can patrol your house, without cleaning and use its camera for surveillance. This could be used for checking in on an animal, instead of buying a dedicated pet cam. Using voice assistants to initiate cleaning tasks is a popular bonus feature, although I've rarely had success remembering the exact commands or when to use them. The latest trend is to inject AI into robot cleaning. The most common is determining what rooms need to be cleaned, how often, and with which settings, or dirt detection features, like the ability to determine if a floor is clean based on water color. In fact, it's getting harder to avoid having the devices take over the cleaning order. How we tested I've been testing and writing about tech products since 2013. Since the rise of smart home appliances, I've covered dozens of robot vacuums. In addition to testing them and putting them through their paces, I've had the chance to talk with company representatives about these machines and ask probing questions. I've talked with consumers about these products to better understand their experiences and what's important to them. Either I or members of the Business Insider Reviews team have personally used all of these models we evaluated. Carpet cleaning: We poured a tablespoon each of flour, coffee grounds, and kitty litter (or crushed cereal) on 18-inch-square sections of carpeting. We also collected hair to place on the carpeting. We ran the vacuums on their most powerful mode for two cleaning cycles and compared before-and-after photos to estimate the percentage of each material picked up. Hardwood floor cleaning: This is the same as the carpet cleaning test on hardwood flooring. Corner cleaning: We poured a teaspoon of flour in a 4-inch radius in a hardwood corner. We photographed the messes before and after running the robot vacuums for two cleaning cycles to compare how much flour was left and how close to the corner each unit got. Mopping: When testing robots with mopping capabilities, we poured two ounces of sugary soda on linoleum and allowed it to dry overnight. Then, we compared photos before and after running the vacuums through two mopping cycles to determine how much soda they picked up. We also noted if the floor was sticky afterward. Obstacle avoidance: A stuck robot vacuum is annoying because you need to intervene to get it unstuck. Meanwhile, it makes error sounds and sends you notifications. Not to mention, running over a charging cable or sock can ruin both the robot and your items. Our test areas feature several obstacles, including stairs and a table with chairs. Noise: We used a sound meter to measure the decibel output of the vacuums from 12 inches away as they ran on the lowest and highest settings. Battery life: We ran each fully charged unit on its highest setting during long cleaning runs. Then, based on the time consumed and percentage remaining, we calculated the actual runtime to ensure it matched the manufacturer's estimates. Special features: Scheduling and automatically returning to the charging dock are must-have features. All of the tested bots include these features. We also looked for common higher-end options, including no-go zone programming, zoned cleaning, multi-floor mapping, self-emptying docks, self-cleaning, and home surveillance. Robot vacuum and mop FAQs What is a robot vacuum and mop combo? A vacuum and mop combo is a device that can perform both cleaning functions. Generally, these combo units can vacuum and mop simultaneously, or do them in various orders. Are robot vacuum and mop combos safe for hardwood floors? These devices can be used with pretty much every kind of flooring. The higher-end models can detect the type of flooring they're working on and adjust their mopping pressure and water usage. Other models can be manually adjusted in the app. I've used all of these models on real hardwood floors and never had one scratch or damage them. Can a robot mop replace manual mopping? While robot mops possess incredible cleaning performance, they likely aren't a replacement for the best mops. On the other hand, these machines are able to keep up consistent pressure, water flow, and rotating pads, so they may be better than doing a whole area by hand, but you should still hold on to a mop for cleaning tight areas like bathrooms or for heavy-duty targeted cleaning. Do robot mop vacuums clean carpets? The combo units will clean hard flooring, carpet, and rugs. The robots try to avoid wetting carpet and rugs by lifting their damp pads, vacuuming carpet first, before wetting the mop pads, or leaving damp mop pads behind at their base stations. How often should I clean the mop pad? For a unit like the Roomba 205, which doesn't have a base station, you'll want to manually clean the mop pad after each use by removing it and washing it in the sink. The higher-end units will clean the mopping pads with either cold, warm, or hot water, and then dry them with cool or hot air to avoid mold and bacteria. For those models, you shouldn't have to ever manually clean the mopping pads, but you will need to empty the dirty water tanks and regularly wipe the base station of any accumulated dirt.

Ultra-slim and highly intelligent: Roborock brings the Saros 10R to Australia
Roborock's slimmest model yet is designed to tackle family mess with precision and ease, marking a new era of household cleaning. SYDNEY, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Roborock, a global leader in ultra-intelligent home robotics, has officially launched its latest robotic vacuum for its flagship Saros series – the Roborock Saros 10R – in Australia. Following the model's launch earlier this year at CES 2025, after much anticipation Aussie households can now experience the intelligent cleaning power of Roborock's slimmest robot vacuum yet — which is available from Roborock's Official Online Store and Amazon Australia from today. Designed to easily glide under furniture and into tight corners, the Saros 10R is built for the realities of busy family life — effortlessly handling tangled cords, crumbs and clutter with powerful suction and intelligent design. That same performance extends to pet-friendly homes too, with the Dual Anti-Tangle System delivering a 100% hair removal rate and zero tangling[1] — making it ideal for the more than two-thirds[2] of Aussie households that own a pet. Smarter navigation for stress-free cleaningForget bumping into furniture or getting stuck on stray toys — the Saros 10R uses Roborock's most advanced navigation system yet, StarSight™ 2.0. Powered by AI and a combination of smart sensors and cameras, it can spot and dodge up to 108 different household objects[1], from socks to charging cables. Plus, the Saros 10R's VertiBeam™ Obstacle Avoidance helps it navigate these obstacles more effectively, using an additional vertical laser to improve its field of vision. This means fewer bumps into skirting boards, furniture, and cables, keeping your home intact while ensuring a more thorough clean, especially around edges and tight spaces. Ultra-slim body meets big powerAt just 7.98cm tall, the Saros 10R is Roborock's slimmest robot vacuum ever – designed to glide under low-profile furniture like beds, sofas, and sideboards. Despite its compact form, it delivers serious performance: 20,000Pa HyperForce® suction[3] – tackles embedded dust and pet hair with ease. AdaptiLift™ Chassis – automatically raises the vacuum by up to 10mm[1] to handle rugs, thresholds (up to 4cm), and uneven flooring. Dual Anti-Tangle System – combines a DuoDivide® main brush and FlexiArm Riser side brush to capture hair and debris while minimising maintenance. Mopping made easy with smart lift functionThe Saros 10R doesn't just vacuum – it mops too. Its dual spinning mops scrub hard floors with precision, then lift automatically when crossing carpets or transitioning between rooms. This prevents cross-contamination and keeps clean areas from being re-soiled. Perfect for busy households, pet owners, or anyone wanting a true 2-in-1 clean with zero hassle. The ultimate all-in-one charging and cleaning hub To complete the hands-free experience, the Saros 10R is compatible with the new Multifunctional Dock 4.0, which introduces significant upgrades to further streamline the user experience. Key features include: 80°C hot water mop washing[1] – for more hygienic cleaning Auto mop removal – detaches mops when switching to vacuum-only mode or carpet cleaning Fast charge (2.5 hours)[1] – gets the vacuum back to work quickly Smart power management – only charges what's needed and supports off-peak scheduling Together, these features reduce user input and increase cleaning efficiency, ensuring the Saros 10R is always ready to go.
