The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra is the cutting-edge in robot cleaning, packing an amazing amount of features into a sleek package. It comes with a large mopping capacity as well as cameras to assist in avoiding obstacles. It also has a powerful vacuum that can sense when it is sweeping over carpets. It also includes advanced intelligence and voice assistant capabilities.
It performs impressively as a vacuum cleaner and mop, and can complete our 1,500 square foot test area in just 101 minutes before running out of battery and returning to its dock. The mop is washed between uses, which lowers maintenance costs and helps keep its pads clean. A dock sensor detects when a mop pad becomes dirty and initiates the wash cycle.
The S8 MaxV Ultra, like its predecessors, has an intelligent system that can recognize things that are commonplace, like shoes and pet waste by using a combination of a camera and LIDAR. It performed well in our test of obstacle avoidance with just one minor glitch during my tests (it was stuck when in unwinding a ball of wool that was caught in its brush arm).
The S8 MaxV Ultra has a new 10,000pa suction power, which is more than double its predecessor. This makes it a great option for homes with a lot of carpet and a mix of flooring kinds. The vacuum can be programmed to automatically increase suction as it passes over dust or crumbs.
Similar to previous models, there are docking stations that can be positioned in different rooms to automate the process of cleaning and mopping. The docking station is connected to the plumbing system and will drain and refill the water tank after you're done.

It is quieter than other corded vacuums, and has only occasional low hums from its motor, and occasional bursts of suction when cleaning. Its navigation system, which utilizes cameras, 3D structured lights, as well as multiple lasers and a 3D structured light to detect and avoid obstacles, is impressive. This helps the X40 Ultra receive one of the highest scores in our evaluations for obstruction avoidance.
5. Eufy S1 Pro
The Eufy S1 Pro has been designed as an efficient vacuum and mop combo that is also user-friendly. The gunmetal base station fills its own tank with clean water, then empty the dustbin into a smaller bin and washes and dries its own mop pads during cleaning sessions. It has advanced features that allow it to switch between carpets and hard surfaces, and eliminate pet hair from carpets and clean thresholds for rooms that are raised.
The S1 Pro has excellent navigation and mapping capabilities, thanks to its internal dToF system. It can keep the appearance of a low-profile, while offering top-notch object detection. It is able to drive close to walls and avoid steps without falling. It also raises the mop when driving on short-pile carpets. However, it did struggle a little when encountering carpets with a longer pile and also large, thick messes of dried-on debris.
The S1 Pro is ready to start right straight out of the box and it only needs just a few minutes of mapping to learn about your home. The map will then be displayed in the app and you can join or add rooms as you need to. You can also set virtual boundaries as well as no-go zones or no-mop zones in case there's something you do not want the robot to be able to touch.
The S1 Pro is a great choice for homes with flooring of both types, because it can mop and vacuum. However its dependence on an Eufy-branded cleaning system (which is included in the box) makes it less flexible than other robots that allow you to create your own solutions. Its ability both to vacuum and mop is a great choice for homes that have two types of flooring. However, its reliance on Eufy cleaning solutions (which are included in the box) could make it less versatile than other robots which allow you to add your own cleaning solutions.
