8. yeedi cube
ECOVACS and yeedi unite to bring you the cube vacuum-mop combo. This hybrid robot features self-emptying, self-washing, and self-drying.
How it cleans
The base has a short L-shaped tunnel design to collect 99% of dust within a mere 10 seconds while minimizing noisiness. The base can carry up to two months of dirt.
The cube uses sonic mopping technology, so it executes 2,500 vibrations a minute. When a carpet is encountered, the mop is lifted in order to avoid it, and the suction is boosted. When transitioning between carpets and floors, thresholds can be surpassed.
The robot cleaner can clean hard floors, which include marble and tile. With dual edge brushes, the vacuuming of debris, dirt, and dust becomes more efficient. After a mopping session, the dirty mops are cleaned and dried to prevent smells.
Movement methods
The cube utilizes vSLAM, and if the bot is ever stuck, visual & laser fusion navigation come into play in order to get the robot unstuck.
How to control it
You can use the yeedi app for better control. For voice control, you have Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Siri.
Summary:
Strong vacuum
Strong mop
Self-cleaning

6. ILIFE T10S
The ILIFE T10S is a robot vacuum-mop combo that self-empties after 60 days of dirt accumulation. It has LDS radar navigation to scan your home and create a map of your rooms fast, so you can select specific rooms to clean at certain times while blocking out certain zones. You can also tell the T10S to intensely clean a certain place, which is further supplemented by the SLAM algorithm that optimizes the T10S’ efficiency.
Great mapping
This is a LiDAR robot vacuum-mop too, meaning great mapping & navigation even when in the dark, avoiding obstacles and such. It is good at reaching far corners as well. Back to mapping, it can generate up to five maps.
Cleaning skills
The T10S is here to clean the likes of dust, dirt, debris, and pet hair on your floors & carpets, even medium-pile carpets. You can have your T10S vacuum, mop, or vacuum-mop together. Three water volume levels are available to pick from. The suction levels are quiet, standard, strong, and max.
When its battery is low, the T10s redocks in order to recharge. This usually happens after covering more than 2,000 square feet. After recharging, the T10S resumes cleaning from where it paused.
Thresholds can be climbed, such as when transitioning from a floor onto a carpet. Also, suction is automatically boosted when on carpets. The T10S is quieter than average due to its low suction noise in addition to having rubber wheels.
The T10S moves in zigzag patterns when vacuuming and takes a Y-shaped path when mopping. The T10S’ mopping is above average, and it can shine one’s floors. It can go under furniture if needed due to its low height.
Controlling it

2. ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI
The DEEBOT X2 OMNI is a sequel of the X1 OMNI, and probably the most noticeable difference is that this robot vacuum has a bit of a D-shape, which is good for shimmying alongside walls.
Vacuum details
The X2 OMNI is a self-emptying robot vacuum that can hold up to 90 days of dirt. Its water tank is refilled to mop up to more than 4,000 square feet. After each use, hot air dries the mops to prevent smelling.
The four cleaning modes are vacuum only, mop only, vacuum & mop, and vacuum first before mopping. There is a washable filter in addition.
With impressively high suction, the X2 OMNI has a main brush that is made of rubber to reduce hair tangles. Hair, dust, and crumbs can be picked up from your carpets or hard floors. If you have any pets, the X2 OMNI can be of service.
Mop details
When a carpet is detected during mopping, the mops of the X2 OMNI rise so that your carpets are not mopped. When vacuuming your carpets, suction is boosted.
The OZMO Turbo 2.0 Rotating Mopping System is supposed to mop floors like a human. Two mops are used, and the performance is better than that of many competitors.
Perimeter awareness
Through AIVI 3D 2.0 Obstacle Avoidance that is AI-controlled, the X2 OMNI strives to evade as many obstacles as possible, including moving pets and walking people. The bot can move around when it is dark as well.
The X2 OMNI has LiDAR, and its LiDAR is reportedly the first dual-laser kind in the industry. Objects can be detected even if they are about 10 meters away. Also, the X2 OMNI can glide under furniture if needed. Moreover, detailed 3D maps can be produced.
Control methodologies
The YIKO 2.0 assistant of the X2 OMNI allows you to do things like scheduling cleaning with your voice. Furthermore, you can monitor your home by way of the onboard camera, and you can even have two-way calls with whomever is at home.
There is an app as well, and the AI housekeeper analyzes & recommends the best cleaning methodologies. There is also what is called the 3D Map 2.0 that allows you to drag and drop the X2 OMNI wherever needed.

1. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra
The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is a full-stack solution for cleaning your home. This robot vacuums, mops, and self-empties too. It dries the mop to prevent mildew and mold from developing. As for the self-emptying of the dirt, it happens due to the large dust bag that allows up to seven weeks of piling up. The RockDock Ultra also cleans itself, refilling the water tank for you to extend the mopping range to more than 3,000 sq ft.
Various modes
The self-emptying modes include light, balanced, smart, and max. As for the washing modes, those include light, balanced, and max with drying modes that include two, three, or four hours.
System of brushes
Thanks to Roborock’s updated dual rubber brush system, cleaning happens to a higher extent in only one session, and hair tangling happens less often. The likes of hair, dust, and debris are picked up while moving seamlessly between floors & carpets despite any thresholds between them.
System of mops
The VibraRise 2.0 Mopping System is here to upgrade the vibration module from one area to two areas to guarantee a wider dual sonic mopping zone with up to 3,000 times per minute of high speed scrubbing. Furthermore, there is consistent mopping pressure so that stains are guaranteed to be taken care of.
Autonomous behavior
In order to separate vacuuming from mopping, the DuoRoller Riser brushes rise whenever needed, and the mop will be lifted on carpets when needed too, operating alongside the Roborock Carpet Boost+ System for enhanced carpet suction. For very high thresholds that are otherwise tough to go over, both the brushes and the mop can be lifted.
Navigation & more
Reactive 3D Obstacle Avoidance technology involves 3D structured light and infrared image technology, which makes the S8 Pro Ultra intelligent enough in order to identify unknown objects on your floors to then determine their location and size, enabling a smooth bypass of them, even if it is dark. Add to that LiDAR navigation & detailed 3D Mapping 2.0, and you are set.
Control options
You can control the bot in different ways, such as by the user friendly Roborock App to:
- Control the robot.
- Engage auto-emptying mode.
- Activate mop washing-and-drying mode.
- Adjust the suction.
- Adjust the water flow.
- Schedule a cleaning.
- Add furniture to the layout.
