The best robot vacuum and mop pet hair Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

For pets that shed fur A robot vacuum/mop combination is one of the best floor cleaning solutions. It can vacuum and mop and can even dry and clean its own mop pads.

It also has the most suction power of any robot we've examined, with 8,000Pa. It can also set up cleaning schedules and save maps of your home through its app.

1. Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni

The X2 Omni robot vacuum-mop is the latest in Ecovacs range of hybrid robot vacuum mops. This model is dry and wet. It is equipped with the latest AIVI 3D2.0 lidar system from Ecovacs, which provides improved mapping and obstruction avoidance. The system is equipped with dual laser LiDAR, similar to that found in self-driving vehicles. It can scan a space up to 32 feet across by the 270-degree angle. That translates into more precise mapping, faster response times, and higher cleaning accuracy.

It also has a rotating mopping mat made of chenille, making it much easier to scrub hard-to-clean areas than traditional mopping. During my testing, the X2 Omni took just over a minute to wash its pad before getting to work, and I noticed it was more precise than the previous models, which seemed to follow a gridded route around rooms. It was able navigate corners and edges of my rooms, and also create "Zambani patterns" both in and out of the middle of the room. It also returned to its OMNI station on a regular basis to empty the trash bin and clean the mop using hot water prior to starting another clean-up job.

The X2 Omni is just as simple to use and set up as the other Ecovacs products. It takes just a few minutes to snap the dock into position, plug it in and connect it to your Wi-Fi network at home. You can then launch the app to start your first cleaning project. I was able customize my floor plan within 15 minutes. This included creating restricted areas for sweeping and mopping, reworking the placement of furniture that is mounted on walls, and more. The X2 Omni performed impressively in my tests, achieving excellent scores for cleaning pet hair and debris cleaning and close to perfect results in cleaning crevices and edges.

2. Deebot T10 Omni

The ECOVACS T10 Omni is an extremely powerful mopping and vacuum machine. It is the most sophisticated of the T-line offered by the company and comes with the new OZMO Turbo2.0 mopping system, which makes use of a dual-spinning brush to provide better cleaning than the traditional scrubbers. It also comes with YIKO integrated, a first-of-its kind natural language processing tech that lets it respond to a wide range of voice commands. You can make use of the ECOVACS app to map your home, set up cleaning schedules and adjust settings.

The main flaw of the T10 Omni is that it can't switch between vacuuming and mopping in one run. Both modes require that you attach and remove the mop heads as needed, which is fine for most homes but not a good fit for people with busy lifestyles.

However, the Deebot T10 Omni is a fantastic robot vacuum that has impressive results in our tests on pet hair. It removed more than 96% of the debris from our hardwood flooring. This is an excellent performance. It also did a fantastic job on tile and carpet and tile, getting rid of more than 99percent of dirt and debris.

This robotic mop and vacuum has a large docking station that provides cool water cleaning for its mop pads, automatic emptying into a 3L bag that's simple to replace, and hot-air drying for quick and easy maintenance. It also comes with a large tank of water that allows it to be rinsed and dried more frequently between mopping sessions.

The Deebot T10 comes with a wash tray built into its base, similar to other mopping robots. It uses the wash tray to wash and dry the mop pads while using them. But it doesn't use a removable tray, which means that dirty water, dust and other grime slowly build up on the bottom of the tray over time.

3. RoboVac X8 hybrid

While Anker-owned Eufy is well-known in the world of Linsar Robot Vacuum: 2-in-1 with Powerful Suction vacuums This model is the first venture into the realm of mopping. It has enhanced smarts, multiple map support and LIDAR scanning, in addition to twin turbine suction technology that adapts to the surface you're cleaning. It's a great mid-range robotic vacuum cleaner, even if it doesn't exactly live up to its promise to be an all-in-one solution for floor cleaning.

The X8 Hybrid looks like a traditional robotic vacuum cleaner from the top with its circular shape, sweeping wheels and an elevated area for sensors. Flip it over, however, and you'll find an electric floor brush and one side sweeper brush that carries dirt from the edges into the main pathway of the robot's mouth. It's a bit smaller than the main brushes of the iRobot Roomba S9, which I found makes it easier to access under chairs and sofas.

Its mapping system is fairly sophisticated, allowing you to set no-mop zones and specific cleaning zones. However it is prone to bump into things (including its charging dock) and isn't the best in negotiating rug. It was effective in collecting pet hair off bare floors. In our tests it was able to pick up 89.5 percent of cat litter.

Although it's controlled through the app, the X8 Hybrid also comes with physical buttons on its base, which allow you to choose a cleaning mode, and turn the robot on/off. You can also use them to set no-go zones as well as see maps in real-time. It's a bit chatty, too, and will tell you what it's planning to do next ("start cleaning") or even warn you that something's wrong (it isn't able to charge, for example).

4. ILIFE A4s

This model is high-tech and sucks up pet hair, kibble and other debris with top-notch effectiveness and effortlessly moves around furniture legs. It comes with a set of features that is impressive, including two cleaning modes and an automatic docking station, and real-time obstacle avoidance technology. The device that is Wi-Fi-connected can be controlled best through the Neato App, where cleanings are scheduled and maintenance requirements are tracked. The X2 Omni is a great option for homes with large spaces with a mix of hard and carpet flooring. However, it will need some planning ahead to avoid getting caught by electrical cables, toys or other obstacles that might be unexpected.

In our test of hardwood floors and kibble the robot performed very well and was able to pick up everything from a single grain of rice up to many pieces of dog food in just one go. It had a bit of trouble transitioning to rugs, however, in general, this vacuum cleaner is perfect for large rooms with flooring of all kinds and a mix of pets.

The A4s Pro is expensive however it's a great option for those who wish to to leave the house hands-free so they can take on other tasks or perform household chores. The A4s Pro has a convenient auto-cleaning mode that increases suction to tackle difficult dirt or spills. It also has a battery-powered ElectroWall to define the boundaries of the robot.

This budget-friendly robot from a renowned new brand is the cheapest we've ever tested and offers incredible value for money. Its basic navigation system uses an extremely basic random pathing algorithm and lacks room mapping capabilities, which makes it less efficient than other models on this list. However it's still able to navigate under furniture and into corners and its mopping feature was very effective in our testing and was able to pick up pet hair and other debris effortlessly.

5. Shark iQ

Shark's iQ isn't as sturdy as the Roomba S9, but it does a better job overall in cleaning up pet hair on all surfaces. It cleans floors that are bare more thoroughly and does a fair job on carpets with a low pile and utilizes smart-pathing navigational technology to provide superior maneuverability. It also lets you transfer it to a particular area, and its advanced set of automation features include no-go zones and scheduling. It even lets you to pause and resume a cleaning session, so it's perfect for homes with pets.

Its self cleaning brushroll prevents knots and holds up to 30 days of dirt. It comes with angled side brushes to reach into corners, as well as a multi-stage filter system that captures dust, allergens, and dander.

This robot vacuum feels solid and well-built. It works with a smartphone app which lets you alter the settings for your vacuum and plan cleaning sessions ahead of time. The app also allows you to view the remaining battery life of the iQ and receive push notifications for any problems it encounters during its cleaning session. You can make use of your voice to control the device using an Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device If you don't have either devices, you can mark zones with physical boundary strips.

The iQ does a decent job of removing bare floors and doing a fair job with shaggy and low-pile carpet however, it doesn't have the same level of autonomy as our top picks. It's also expensive, and its recurring expenses can add up over time.
