The Best Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

The Q Revo is an excellent option if you're looking to buy a mid-range mop and robot vacuum. It's got a fantastic mopping performance but lacks some of the features of its more expensive sibling.

In tests, it was able to tackle dry oats and dust on carpets with medium piles as well as pet hair on hard floors. But, unlike cheaper models, it doesn't employ LIDAR to map out your home.

Roomba s9+ iRobot from iRobot

The iRobot Roomba S9+ robot vacuum is one of the top-rated robots. It has a lot of features and impressive cleaning power, such as a dirt compartment that is built into the base of charging. The robot also learns your cleaning habits and suggest automatic schedules to ensure you have a hands-free experience.

The iRobot Home App guides you through the process of setting up. Once the system is set up you can begin the automated cleaning with a single button press. You can select an overall clean that focuses on cleaning up larger debris like rice and cereal, or opt for two detailed maps of your area to ensure that your home gets a proper look.

This robot vacuum is effective on both bare floors and carpets with low pile. It can pick up pet hair and also suck large objects up. It doesn't lose suction as fast as some other robot vacuums. It's not the best time with plush or high-pile carpet, however iRobot says it will get better in the future with new models.

The S9+ features a new design from iRobot that concentrates on enhancing edge and corner cleaning. It's the very first Roomba that uses an open-fronted, flat-fronted design. The company hopes that this will allow it hug furniture and walls. It's a significant improvement over hockey puck-shaped robovacs which are common however we found it to be just marginally superior to circular models.

iRobot also claims the S9+ comes with a superior filtering system that stops microscopic dust particles and allergens from circulating within your home. We like the statement, but not enough to justify a premium price.

Its smart navigation system utilizes sensors to store the layout of your home and vSLAM for mapping the interior of your home. This allows it to avoid obstacles like stairs and other barriers and to tidy up your entire home in the most efficient way possible. The iRobot Home App allows you to schedule cleaning times and also set virtual boundaries so that the robot can determine what areas require extra attention.
