Best robot vacuum mops of 2026: Expert tested

2 months ago 26

ARTICLE AD BOX

I began using robot vacuum-and-mop combinations over seven years ago to check some chores off my to-do list. It is truly possible to sit back and relax while one of these machines handles all the hard work. These robots significantly evolved from dragging a soggy microfiber pad across your floors to self-washing, rotating mop pads and mop rollers, and self-emptying dustbins.

Why we like it: The Eufy Omni S2 is the best robot vacuum and mop we've tested so far. With excellent suction power that effectively tackles big challenges like pet hair and deep-seated dirt, and the best mopping feature on a robot, the Omni S2 is the top performer in the category.

Eufy took its fantastic mop to an expert level, making the necessary improvements to position its latest robot vacuum and mop in the number one spot. The roller mop uses hydrolyzed water to clean your floors and scrubs away 99,99% of bacteria and germs.

Review: Eufy Omni S2

Who it's for: This robot vacuum and mop is the right fit for homes with mostly hard floors like tile, hardwood, or vinyl planks. It will vacuum carpets as well, but buying the Omni S2 solely to clean carpets would be a waste of its excellent mopping feature. The robot is a good fit for homes with kids and pets, as it picks up pet hair and easily cleans sticky messes.

Who should look elsewhere: The Omni S2 is cost-prohibitive for many budgets. It's regularly priced at $1,600, but currently on sale for $1,400. With such a fantastic mop, this robot is not designed to be a carpet-only cleaner, though it can do that as well. Spending that much money buys you a cleaner that'll be around for the foreseeable future, without the need to upgrade in a couple of years.
