1. Eufy S1 Pro

It has a lot to offer for its relatively affordable price, and it's one of the most simple robots we've tested to install. Unpacking the S1 Pro is simple, and the quick-start guide will get you up and running with a clean, full dust bag, floor solution for hard floors and water tank in no time at all.

The S1 Pro is an incredibly powerful machine that can mop and vacuum well. The mops spin at high speeds and can apply 2.2 pounds (1kg) of force, which makes short work of pet hair, dirt and dried sticky spills. The vacuum comes with four power modes, a variety of attachments and brushes, and an intuitive app that lets you select the type of cleaning you'd like for each room.

For  robot vacuum cleaners , you can request the robot to clean the kitchen and living room thoroughly but leave the bedroom in its own space. The S1 Pro's front collision sensors and smart navigation tech are superb, with the robot being capable of detecting tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. Its only minor issue is that it tends to crash into walls and objects at a high speed, but a quick glance at the cleaning history in the app will tell you exactly what it's doing as well as where it's heading and the obstacles it's avoided.

The docking station comes with a handy LCD screen that displays the need for maintenance for cleaning up debris and cleaning the dirty water tank. It is also able to mix detergent into the water tank by itself by using a 600ml eufy solution.

2. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra

The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra, the latest version of Roborock's top-of-the-line robot vacuum and mop, is the most up-to-date version. The model of this year features an agitator that doubles as its mopping pad. This enhances the carpet cleaning capabilities of this model. The S8 Pro Ultra has an improved suction power that enables it to pull up smaller hairs and other particles other robotic cleaners could miss.

Like the other two Roborock models I've tested it also has a 3D obstacle avoidance and infrared technology to helps it avoid furniture, walls and other obstacles. The S8 Pro Ultra goes one step further and incorporates dual cameras that can detect objects, and determine if they are walls or other surfaces. It will then automatically alter its direction and clean them without skipping a beat.

It's the most expensive model I've tried and it comes with the most features. Its sleek, angular design is eye catching and comes with three buttons that are physically accessible. The power button, which also resumes the cleaning mop button, which doubles as a child lock and a home-button that can bring the robot to its dock. Lifting the hinged lid, you will find a 350ml dust bin and 200ml water tank. The water tank is self-emptying, and the bin is auto-refilling.

The only negative I discovered with this model was that its VibraRise mop pad mount isn't movable. Although you can change the mopping cloth (if it's required), it's a pain to remove the mount itself for manual washing. I've noticed that any plush carpet that the robot passes will be in contact with the rough Velcro-like fastener system on the mount, and could cause abrasions.

The S8 Pro Ultra has a variety of smart features, including support for Google Home, Amazon Alexa and Siri. You can manage and set up these using the Roborock app, which is also the home of its maps and advanced mopping settings. The app allows you to schedule cleanings and monitor the battery's lifespan. However, you'll need to jump through a few hoops in order to enable voice control with this model, which is a shame considering the performance of this model.
