The X2 Omni robot vacuum-mop is the latest in Ecovacs range of hybrid robot vacuum mops.

The system uses dual-laser LiDAR similar to the kind is used in self-driving cars and is able to scan up to 32 feet wide by 270 degrees. This results in more precise mapping and faster response times and better cleaning accuracy.

It also comes with a rotating mopping mat constructed of chenille, making it much easier to scrub hard spots than traditional mop. In my testing the X2 Omni took just over a minute to wash its pad and get to work, and I noticed that it was more precise than previous models that seemed to follow a grid path around rooms. It was capable of navigating my room's with its corners and edges as well as make an "Zambani pattern" up and down the center of the room. It also returned to its OMNI station regularly to empty the dustbin and clean the mop using hot water prior to starting another cleaning job.

If you're looking for a strong combination of mopping and vacuuming then check out the EcoVACS Deebot T10 Omni. It is the most advanced of the T-line offered by the company and comes with the brand new OZMO Turbo2.0 mopping system, which uses dual-spinning brush for better cleaning than the traditional scrubbers.

The main flaw of the T10 Omni is that it can't switch between vacuuming and mopping in a single run. The T10 Omni comes with two modes that require you to attach mop heads to and from the vacuum according to your needs. This is fine for most households, but not so for those who lead busy lives.

The Deebot T10 is a great robot vacuum that gives impressive results. It vacuumed up more than 96% of the particles we tossed at it on our hardwood flooring, which is an outstanding performance. It also did an excellent job with tile and carpet, removing over 90% of dirt and debris.

This robot vacuum and mops has a large docking system that allows for automatic cleaning using cool mop pads. It also comes with an auto-emptying 3L bag that's easy to replace and hot air drying for quick and easy maintenance. It also has a huge water tank that permits frequent washing and drying between mopping runs.

3. RoboVac X8 Hybrid

This is the first model of mopping from Anker, which is known for its robot vacuums. It has upgraded smarts, multiple maps support, and LIDAR scanning, along with twin turbine suction technology that adjusts to the surface you're cleaning. It's a tempting mid-range robot vacuum cleaner although it can't quite deliver on its promise to be a one-stop shop for floor cleaning.

The X8 Hybrid looks like a traditional robotic vacuum cleaner from the top with its circular design with sweeping wheels and a raised space for sensors. On the other side you'll find a motorized floorbrush as well as a single side brush that moves dust from the edges into the main path of its'mouth.' It's smaller than the main brushes of the iRobot Roomba S9, which I discovered makes it easier to fit under sofas and chairs.

Its mapping system lets you define no-mop areas as well as specific cleaning zones. However, it has a tendency to get into things (including its charging dock) and isn't always great at climbing over carpets. It did a good job of removing pet hair on bare floors however, and in our tests, it picked up 89.5 percent of cat litter, which is higher than all but the most powerful robots we've examined.

The X8 Hybrid is controlled via an app, however it also has physical buttons at its base. These buttons let you choose a cleaning mode or turn off the robot. You can also use them to set no-go zones as well as see real-time maps. It's also a little chatty and will tell what it's going to do next (start cleaning) or notify you when something isn't right.

This high-tech model can pick up pet hair, kibble, and other debris with great effectiveness. It can also move effortlessly around furniture legs.

The device that is Wi-Fi-connected can be controlled best through the Neato App where cleaning schedules are set and maintenance requirements are tracked. The X2 Omni is an excellent option for homes with a large a mix of hard carpet and floors, but it requires some advanced planning to avoid getting stuck on power cords, toys or other obstacles that might be unexpected.

In our test of hardwood floors and kibble, this robot performed well and was able to take everything from a single grain of rice to multiple pieces of dog food in one go. It did have some issues with rugs, but generally this vacuum cleaner is ideal for rooms with both types of flooring as well as a mix of pets.

The A4s Pro is expensive however it's a great purchase for those who want to be able to leave the house without hands so that they can get out and do other things or do chores. The A4s Pro has a convenient auto-cleaning mode that boosts suction to get rid of tough dirt or spills. It also comes with a battery powered ElectroWall to define the boundaries of the robot.

This budget-friendly choice from a well-known brand is the most affordable robot we've tested to date and offers an outstanding value for money. The basic navigation system employs an extremely basic random pathing algorithm and lacks room mapping capabilities, making it less efficient than the other models on this list. However it's still able to reach under furniture and in corners, and its mopping mode was very effective during our tests, picking up stray pet hair and other debris easily.

5. Shark iQ

Shark's iQ isn't as robust as the Roomba S9, but it is superior in general at cleaning up pet hair on all surfaces. It is more effective of cleaning low-pile carpet and floors that are not covered. It also makes use of smart-pathing navigational software for greater mobility. It can be positioned to a specific location, and has a suite of advanced automation features, including no-go zones and schedules.

The iQ robot vacuum is well-built and feels solid. It works with an app on your smartphone that lets you change the vacuum's settings and schedule cleaning times ahead of time. The app allows you to view the iQ's remaining battery life and send push notifications for any problems it encounters during a cleaning process. You can make use of your voice to control it with an Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device If you do not have either of these devices, you can mark areas with physical boundary marker strips.

The iQ does a good job of cleaning floors and doing a fair job on shaggy and low-pile carpet however it lacks the same degree of autonomy as our top selections. It is also expensive and the cost of recurring use can increase.
