3. Eufy X10

The Eufy X10 offers a wide range of features at an affordable cost. It can do everything you'd want an automated mop and vacuum cleaner to do at a reasonable cost.

This model can handle cleaning chores on the floor without assistance, such as sweeping, mopping and dusting. The base station needs some extra space than other models, requiring 50cm either side and a total of 150cm in front.

The smart navigation technology of the X10 is able to detect the layout and style of your home. It stores the information in its internal memory, without ever sending it to the cloud. Combining AI See with iPath laser mapping technology the X10 can efficiently remember the layout of rooms and optimize cleaning routes for efficiency and effectiveness.

The X10's smart object recognition system works well it allows the robot to quickly identify and avoid hazards such as power cords. It can be programmed to clean and recharge the battery on a regular basis, which is an excellent touch. The X10 gets stuck on thicker rugs. It slams into them with a loud roar and then the front brush is pushed into the rug.

Overall, this is a top-notch robo vacuum and mop that's let down by a somewhat confusing app. Eufy Clean's app is not as user-friendly as the iRobot App that guides you through the process of setting up your robot up and teaches you how to use it. It's still a great alternative but it also offers plenty of customizability for those looking to make the most out of its features.

The SwitchBot S10 vacuum cleaner robot is the perfect solution to home cleaning. It is a combination of the power of a vacuum cleaner and mopping. It is equipped with a unique design framework which allows it to collect dust and provide mopping water in the same machine.
