    Best Mop and Vacuum Hybrid

    Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni

    4.5 Outstanding

    Pros & Cons

      • Vacuums and mops effectively
      • Roller mop limits cross-contamination
      • Side brush and mop extend into corners
      • Dispenses detergent automatically
      • Lifts itself over hurdles
      • Battery lasts longer than two hours
      • Expensive
      • Occasionally gets lost
      • Auto-generated maps may require manual edits

    Why We Picked It

    The Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni features an innovative mop design, similar to a paint roller, that scrubs your floors with 4,000Pa of pressure while spinning at 200rpm. The relatively unique mop keeps itself clean as it works, as a scraper whisks away the dirty water while it spins, and 16 nozzles keep it doused with fresh water and cleaning solution. It can also keep your floors clear of dust and pet hair, with 18,000Pa of vacuum suction power. It can lift its mop over the carpet, or you can set it to vacuum the carpet first before wetting its mop. When back at the base, it empties its own dustbin and washes and dries its own mop to prepare for the next run.

    Who It's For

    People who want it all: If you don’t want to put any effort toward cleaning your floors, and you’re willing to pay for that convenience, the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni should be at the top of your list thanks to its effective roller mop, strong suction power, and useful self-maintenance features.

    Homes with a mix of flooring types: With excellent sweeping and scrubbing performance, it's a top choice for homes with a mix of carpet and hard flooring. It navigates efficiently, making it a good fit for large homes with extensive floor space.

    Pet owners: The Deebot X8 thoroughly removes pet hair without tangles, making it an ideal choice for those with furry roommates. Moreover, it applies sufficient pressure with its mop to remove grime from hard flooring, and the roller design helps limit cross-contamination.

  • iRobot Braava Jet m6
    Best Standalone Robot Mop

    iRobot Braava Jet m6

    4.0 Excellent

    Pros & Cons

      • Quiet. Small. Solid navigation capabilities. Compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
      • Expensive. Deep stains still require some elbow grease.

    Why We Picked It

    Made by one of the most respected names in the robotic floor cleaner market, the iRobot Braava Jet m6 is among the best standalone robot mops. When mopping, the M6 sprays a specific area with a cleaning solution (or plain water) and goes over it a few times before moving on and repeating the process, picking up a lot more dirt and grime than we expected. It can detect and automatically avoid carpeting, and it rarely gets stuck. Moreover, it's easy to use, supports app and voice control, and maps out your home for targeted room cleaning.

    Who It's For

    Homes with mostly hard floors: The Braava Jet m6 is an excellent standalone robot mop for homes with mostly hardwood, laminate, or tile flooring. It doesn't vacuum, but it thoroughly scrubs hard floors. With its long battery life and the ability to cover up to 1,000 square feet on a single charge, the m6 is suitable for both apartments and larger homes.

    Roomba fans: This makes a nice addition to your cleaning repertoire if you already own an iRobot Roomba i, j, or s series robot vacuum. You can link them in the app and configure the mop to start a run once the vacuum finishes cleaning your floors.

  • Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone
    Best Battery Life

    Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone

    4.0 Excellent

    Pros & Cons

      • Cleaned for three consecutive hours in testing
      • Standout mopping performance
      • Excellent large particle pickup
      • Never got stuck in testing
      • No disposable dust bags
      • Fine particle pickup could be better
      • Emptying dust from the base is tedious
      • One unit malfunctioned in testing

    Why We Picked It

    The Ecovacs Deebot X11uses quick charging technology to juice up its battery when it returns to its base station mid-run to empty its dustbin or wash its mop. Thanks to these pit stops, it cleaned continuously for three hours in testing, the longest of any robot vacuum we've reviewed. It also aced our mopping stress test, cleaning up raspberry jelly with little remaining residue and then removing all traces of the sticky mess from its mop after the run.

    Who It's For

    Homes with lots of floor space: Thanks to its quick-recharge capabilities, the Deebot X11 can just keep cleaning and cleaning. If you have lots of space to cover in your home, the X11 should be able to clean it all in a single run.

    Uncompromising buyers: If price is no object, the Deebot X11 earns its keep with excellent mopping performance and stellar battery life. The thick nylon fibers on the mop scrub stains, and the roller design limits cross-contamination by cleaning itself as it spins. It also vacuums thoroughly and skillfully avoids obstacles, so it's a good fit if you want a robot floor cleaner that does it all, and does it well.

  • Roborock Qrevo Curv
    Best for Multi-Level Floors

    Roborock Qrevo Curv

    4.0 Excellent

    Pros & Cons

      • Excellent cleaning performance
      • Side brush and mop pads extend into corners
      • Lifts itself over hurdles
      • Detachable mop pads
      • Built-in voice assistant and security camera functionality
      • Ran over obstacles in testing
      • Lacks a detergent dispenser
      • May drag mops over carpet

    Why We Picked It

    The Qrevo Curv uses spinning mop pads to great effect. Both the mop pads and the side brush extend outward, helping it clean tight spots along walls and in corners where some other robots miss. The Curv also stands out for its ability to lift itself over small thresholds, which can help it avoid getting stuck and traverse multi-tiered floor plans. Otherwise, the Curv offers all the features you'd expect from a high-end hybrid, including a camera that serves double duty as a security robot, a self-emptying base station that washes and dries the mop pads, and a stylish design.

    Who It's For

    Homes with multi-tiered floors: The Roborock Qrevo Curv is a top premium 2-in-1 model for homes with tall thresholds and/or multi-level floors. Each of the robot’s two main side wheels can independently raise its body up to 0.4 inches off the ground. This lets the robot clear obstacles that others might get stuck on and allows it to climb thresholds up to 1.6 inches tall.

    Allergy sufferers: Dust and pet hair tend to collect along walls and in corners, and the Curv is particularly adept at cleaning those areas. It also empties its own dustbin, so you can avoid coming into contact with the particles. It even mops well enough to remove the grime your pet leaves behind.

  • Eufy Omni E28
    Best for Carpet and Upholstery Stain Removal

    Eufy Omni E28

    3.0 Average

    Pros & Cons

      • Unique deep cleaning attachment
      • Self-cleaning roller mop
      • Capable large particle pickup
      • Automatic detergent dispenser
      • Poor pickup of stubborn debris
      • Dampens area rugs
      • Runs over obstacles
      • Cumbersome design

    Why We Picked It

    One of the few models with a roller mop design, the Eufy Omni E28 offers serious scrubbing power. The roller mop cleans itself as it works, limiting cross-contamination, and the base station does a good job of giving it a thorough wash between runs. The E28 is also a versatile hybrid model, featuring an attached handheld deep cleaner that removes stains from both carpet and upholstery. It also offers a lofty 20,000Pa of suction, as well as app controls and integrations with Alexa or Google Assistant for voice controls.

    Who It's For

    Parents and pet owners: The Eufy E28’s standout feature is its FlexiOne deep cleaner, a portable handheld device meant for tackling wet messes and set-in stains on carpet and furniture, making it a strong choice for homes with little hands and paws. If the deep cleaner appeals to you, the Eufy Omni E28 backs up its unique hybrid design with excellent mopping performance.

Buying Guide: The Best Robot Mops for 2026


Which Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo Works Best?

Every robot mop has a few things in common. They generally come with reservoirs that need to be filled with water or cleaning solution, microfiber cloths that scrub your floors and pick up dirt, and sensors to help them navigate autonomously around your furniture.

Robot mops generally come in one of two flavors: single-purpose or hybrid. Single-purpose mops, like the iRobot Braava Jet m6, can't vacuum your floors. Some can, however, perform a dry sweep to clear the area before they start mopping.

Hybrid models, as you might expect, can mop and vacuum. They typically have attachments for microfiber cloths that wipe or scrub your floors as the robot runs around your home. Some feature an interchangeable dustbin and water tank and don't require any presoaking before cleaning.

Hybrid models are typically more expensive, but they also offer features such as app control via your phone, voice control via Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, and even interactivity with other smart home devices.

In our reviews, we note which models are hybrids and test their functionality accordingly.


How We Test Robot Mops

We test robot mops in our actual homes, keeping the following criteria in mind: battery life, navigation, ease of setup and operation, and performance.

The primary purpose of robotic cleaners is to automate the cleaning process for you. Having to intervene defeats the purpose. To that end, we look to see whether the robot can handle different floor types, such as tile and wood, with equal ease. We also check to see if it avoids textiles like rugs and carpeting or if it comes with peripheral features like virtual walls (or app controls) to make this easier.

Battery life is also important; the size of your home determines what is sufficient. The longer the robot mop can run on one charge, the better it is for larger homes. We consider a battery life of 60 minutes to be sufficient for small homes and apartments; ideally, we would like to see results in the 90-minute range. We fully charge the robot to test battery life before running a cleaning cycle. We then let it run for as long as it takes to completely drain the battery.

Setup is another factor we consider. Most involve charging your robot and filling up water tanks. Once again, you want these processes to be as simple as possible. And although not every robot mop works with an app, hybrid models often do. In these instances, we assess the app's intuitiveness and the benefits it offers.

We then test how well a robot mop cleans in real-life conditions. We consider factors such as whether it uses a cleaning solution or just water. We see how well it tackles dry stains versus wet on various surfaces. We also ensure that it doesn't scuff tile or wood, and at the end of every cleaning session, we inspect the microfiber cloth to assess its level of dirtiness.

Finally, we put the mop through a stress test. We put 0.25 ounces of raspberry jelly on a single spot on the floor in a closed room and see what happens. Of course, we note whether the mop is powerful enough to remove the stain, but we also let you know if it spreads sticky residue or seeds elsewhere on the floor.


Are Robot Mops Worth It?

As with robot vacuums, robot mops do a sufficient job of keeping your floors clean, but they aren't complete substitutes for a little elbow grease. They're great for maintenance and fresh spills. Deep-set stains, however, still likely require some manual scrubbing.

The robot mop market is still a growing category. See our reviews for a detailed analysis of each model listed here. Check back soon, as we continually review new ones. When you find the right one for you, read up on our top tips for robot vacuums, many of which also apply to mops.

About Our Expert

Senior Writer, Smart Home and Wearables

My Experience

I’m PCMag’s senior writer covering smart home and wearable devices. I’ve been reporting on tech professionally for nearly a decade and have been obsessing about it for much longer than that. Prior to joining PCMag, I made educational videos for an electronics store called Abt Electronics in Illinois, and before that, I spent eight years covering the smart home market for CNET. 

I foster many flavors of nerdom in my personal life. I’m an avid board gamer and video gamer. I love fantasy football, which I view as a combination of role-playing games and sports. Plus, I can talk to you about craft beer for hours and am on a personal quest to have a flight of beer at each microbrewery in my home city of Chicago.

The Technology I Use

I tend to like mixing flavors from various companies. My personal computer is an Apple MacBook Pro. My phone is a Google Pixel 7a. On my wrists are an ever-rotating lineup of the latest smartwatches, and I sometimes wear two at once for testing and extra style. The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is a mainstay on my wrist because I use it as a control for evaluating the accuracy of other devices' fitness metrics. 

I spend plenty of time in front of my entertainment center, which features a 55-inch LG OLED TV, a Yamaha soundbar, a Nintendo Switch, and a PS5. (I insisted on getting the PS5 with the disc slot when they were hard to come by and haven’t used the feature in more than a year.) I thought I’d have given in to temptation and snagged an Xbox to play Starfield by now, but Baldur’s Gate 3 saved me money by distracting me long enough for the Starfield hype to blow past.

I have two cats and sneeze plenty, so I have a Shark Air Purifier to help me fight back against their dastardly, shedding ways.

I use my aforementioned Pixel 7a and a Nest Hub for Google Assistant, an iPhone 16e and AirPods to talk to Siri, and an Amazon Echo Show 5 and Echo Show 15 for Alexa, so I’m not in danger of losing touch with any of the big three digital assistants.
