We suggest getting a robot mop and a vacuum that comes with a user-friendly base station. This allows you to wash or replace cleaning pads as well as empty and clean the soiled water tank.

Also consider a model that connects to Wi-Fi, so you can set automated/set run times and map your home and use mop/vacuum switching features.

1. Roborock S7 Max Ultra

It has a powerful suction, and even dispensing detergent. However, all that functionality is a cost of $1200. It's the most expensive robot vacuum and mop I've reviewed so far.

From the beginning out of the box, the S7 Max Ultra is very easy to set up. When you plug it into the outlet, it will prompt you to map your home using sensors and will continue to make use of this information to avoid obstacles. In our tests it did not get stuck on power cords, long curtains and even dog toys. It's not perfect but it occasionally encountered obstacles such as tangled wires or some odd book or toy.

The S7 Max Ultra can be operated via its smartphone app. This is where you can find all the sophisticated features that set it apart from other robot vacuums and mops. These include room-specific cleaning and mopping settings, a time planner, mopping and vacuuming power ranges, as well as integrations with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa for smart home integration. The S7 Max Ultra's vast feature set allows it to perform everything a standard robot can do however at a fraction of the cost.

The S7 Max Ultra vacuuming is amazing. It did a great job picking up pet fur, dirt and other particles, both on hard floors and carpets. The automatic emptying feature of the dustbin was flawless during our tests. This was and reassuring. It also boasts 5100 Pa HyperForce power, which is significantly higher than the 2,500Pa power of the S6MaxV and S7.

The S7 Max Ultra's mopping capability was also good, though not the most impressive we've seen. It used a special microfiber mop pad that absorbs liquids and self-emptying robot vacuum utilizes sonic vibration technology to scrub your floors up to 3000 times per minute, which was a little quicker than the X1 Omni's circular pads that spin at a speed of 180 revolutions per minute. The S7 Max Ultra's ReactiveAI 2.0 obstruction recognition system is very good. During our tests, it did not get stuck on anything and stayed clear of power cords, curtains, and other potential obstructions 100% of the time.

We're glad to see that a lot of manufacturers are introducing self-emptying vacuum robots that make the whole process much easier and less stressful.

The Narwal Freo, the newest addition to the robotic cleaners category, comes with a number of enhancements to software, sensors and hardware that are designed to keep it on the top of its game. The patented DirtSense Technology and the Smart-Swing feature both work to better recognize the surface that is being cleaned, and adjust the cleaning mode based on the floor type. The Freo also monitors the level of dirtiness and automatically washes its mops when they are full, which increases the effectiveness of subsequent cleaning sessions, as they are not returning to soiled areas.

The Freo is also a step forward over its predecessor in that it is controlled directly by the touchscreen LCD at its base station. This is in addition to the app for smartphones. This is the first time for a robot vacuum and mop combo and is definitely a welcomed change if you'd rather skip the hassle of using the app. You can even optimize your routing during the session by using the controls on the LCD screen. You can also make sure that the robot is doing exactly what you would like it to accomplish.

The Narwal Freo also does a decent job of keeping the noise down when it is working and registering just 64dB in suction mode. Despite this, maintenance on the Freo isn't completely hands-free as you will need to periodically clean various components like the main brush roll and side brushes.

In our tests we discovered the T9+ to be exceptionally adept in navigating around obstacles. It does tend to take a slightly manic route around the home. This often meant that it ended up in the exact location where it began cleaning few minutes earlier. It didn't happen very often however enough to be noticed.

The T9+ comes with a selection of accessories like the robot cleaner, docking station and an automatic emptying station. The mopping unit, as well as the replacement dustbin are sold separately.

4. iRobot Combo j7+

The iRobot Combo j7+ robot is a great option for cleaning floors. It's a vacuum and mop, all in one, and it comes with excellent obstacle avoidance and home navigation. It can map your home and clean areas, without bumping into walls or furniture. The app lets you set up zones to indicate areas that need to be cleaned and areas you don't want to clean. You can also establish zones for no-mop or no-sweep zones.

IRobot's iAdapt 2.0 technology is a big part of what makes the Combo J7+ so intelligent. The front camera on the majority of the robots made by iRobot is used to avoid hazards such as pet waste and power cords. iAdapt 2.0 also allows the Combo J7+ robot to determine dirt levels, and focus more on those areas.

When the Combo j7+ detects that it's on a floor that requires mopping and a small robot arm that has mop pads is lifted from under the vacuum. It then mop the floor until the mopping pad is dry, which takes about 90 seconds.

The Combo j7+ is also able to sense carpeting, which is a nice feature for homes with a mix of hard floors and rugs. It won't try to push the rug through it, but instead will pull away if it senses it is not able to traverse the space without harming the carpet or itself.

The Combo j7+ is easy to control using the mobile application that is user-friendly and well-designed. It also works with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa which means you can tell it to start cleaning with a voice. The only downside was the small water tank on the Combo J7+, which means that you have to refill it frequently or limit its mopping to smaller spaces and run it more frequently in eco-mode.

Another drawback is that the Combo J7+'s dust bin is tiny, and you have to empty it manually. The Combo mop pads were also less efficient than other brands. This is a shame as this robot is otherwise a great machine.
