1. Eufy Omni S1 Pro
Eufy's gunmetal-and gloss black Omni S1 Pro is one of the most impressive robot vacuum and mop combos on the market. It uses lidar to navigate, and create maps of rooms and floors (even multiple levels), and works with the free Eufy Clean app to let you set up schedules and modify the S1's behaviour.
When I tried the S1, it was quick to locate our downstairs, which has linoleum flooring in the kitchen-diner and bathrooms, plus carpeting of medium-pile as well as a large area rug. It was able to drive close to walls without crashing into them and even managed to drive across thresholds for rooms that are raised without problem, although it sometimes was unable to navigate down stairs in a single move. The S1 also did a fantastic job of cleaning hard floors, with its mop driving effortlessly on its flat side against the floor and lifting its own weight when it reaches carpet or carpet.
After every mopping session, the docking station on the S1 automatically emptys its dust bin and refills the water tank onboard with clean ozonated filtered water. The dock also provides an extra-deep cleaning solution to the water. The S1 water tank can be able to accommodate 12 cleaning sessions, but this will differ depending on the frequency you use the mop.
The S1 requires regular maintenance, just like other 2-in-1 robots. You'll need to wash out the dirty tank to avoid it becoming clogged. You'll also need to clean the swivel wheels and sensors regularly to keep them from getting blocked by dirt or dust. Overall, the S1 requires less maintenance than other combos.
