I am wondering how much texture your floors have. I have a few vac mops and steam mops and rotating brush mops and it just took me using all of them to get the deep dirt in the textured part of my floor. Only steam and rotation got the dirt out of the textured part and even then I needed to wipe the dirt up with a cloth after that and mop again.

[@VacuumWars]

Glad we could come through! Thank you for your patience!

[@Jessie-sp1dg]

Love this Chanel Have to say though I love my G1. I’ve been using it for 6 months. I use it one a week for a full house clean and then a few times a day in the kitchen to spot clean (twin toddlers that throw food and this thing has saved my sanity). Even with the heavy use I’ve only had the tray fall out once when I didn’t insert it while it was in the stand 🤷‍♀️

[@juistb2]

My kitchen floors get greasy from splatter from my stovetop. My robot vacuum (Dreame L10s Ultra) stands no chance in mopping up all that and just ends up spreading it around the floor whereas my hard floor cleaner (Narwal S20 Pro) sucks it all up and makes the floors look spotless. I think that's really the value proposition for the hard floor cleaners: they are able to pull up a lot more grime before becoming soiled themselves, whereas the robot vacuums have a very finite amount that they're able to pick up at a time

[@VacuumWars]

super input! Thank you!

[@bouncingsquare-jx4xy]

I wonder if a robot such as the eufy s1 could yield similar results given the similar mopping system to the hard floor cleaners

Agreed for me with a Labrador in the UK every time I let him out and back in there a lot of dirt on my hard floor. The standalone hard floor mop is able to deal with more dirt in one go than a robot vacuum.

[@benwhittle7204]

What I would like to see in these tests, is an equivalent "crevice" test, AKA how well do they clean grout between tiles.

[@shane250]

Yes! A crevice test for the mop would be VERY helpful.

[@resetgang6638]

I have the Tineco S5, one of my biggest complaints is that it sucks at cleaning grout

[@marambula]

good idea. they most likely contribute to dirtier grout. juts like all mopping would without specific grout cleaning. Grout cleaning whether by hand or by counter rotating brush or rotary cleaner uses bristles which will better physically contact the grout lines vs these rolling microfiber hard floor cleaners.

[@niloo5973]

i agree so much.. I got the roborock s8 pro ultra on Facebook marketplace for 200 bucks like new because the person didn't know how to use it... thing is a life changer

[@itsthecolt]

I purchased my Tineco Floor One S5 Steam in August of 2024 and LOVE it. I own several robot vacuums, but neither of them have any real effective mopping abilities (the Switchbot K10+ can mop, but with a wet pad like a Swiffer). My house is 100% hard floors and I have a pet, so being able to mop so effectively with only distilled water is wonderful.

[@bennyaries973]

You're not wrong! Since I got my Roborock Q7 Max (a model that's not even particularly good at mopping) I never pull out my Bissell crosswave anymore. Prior to having a roborock, I was a huge promoter of vac mops like the crosswave. Even before your very good test, I just noticed my floors look great, and I didn't need to pull out the Bissell crosswave. And the robot is so much easier to maintain than the crosswave.

[@seanhepner7813]

@@bennyaries973 this is great to hear, I am almost in your same boat, except i currently have the crosswave hydrosteam. I bought the Qrevo Pro, and it will be here on Tuesday. You make me hopeful it can fully replace my hydrosteam. Do you have tile/how deep is your grout?

[@anasevi9456]

Yeah the only time I pull out my Tineco is to clean up big spills that even that fancy Eufy that has a dirty water collection couldnt have the space to do. And my roborock is also an older middling active mop robovac.

[@jacobpeacock5782]

I think the big difference is that robot vacuums can only pick up as much dirty water as the pads can absorb (Plus maybe a small amount in the vacuum). Comparatively the floor cleaners wash the floor and then suck up that dirty water allowing you pick up more of the dirt rather than just spreading it around. We've seen this to some extent in the old glow in the dark liquid tests where robot vac mops would eventually become overloaded and then proceed to drag that liquid around the rest of the area. In the end I think that if you have a self cleaning station robot vac/mop and start with a clean floor and daily cleanings it likely won't matter too much but if you have heavy traffic, don't run the machine everyday, winter salt water slush, etc then I think that's where the floor cleaner will shine.

[@seanhepner7813]

@@jacobpeacock5782 one could always program their robot mop routine to go over an area multiple times as well, say the kitchen or entryway. Roborock can do this, and you can also set intervals on their mops for how long they should go inbetween each mop washing.

[@marambula]

good points. This test doesn't address use cases and the strengths and weaknesses of using them in a house. It's too focused on the arbitrary scoring system, even if it is a well constructed test.

[@cgfgsks201]

I personally have a Robo rock s7 with the ultra dock and it does a great job on the perfectly flat surfaces. But my house is older with some bigger gaps in the tile and when something gets into those cracks the robot doesn't have a chance. That is when I pull out the crosswave. Also if it is a larger liquid mess I don't want the robot to try to vacuum and dry it. I will use the dedicated wet mop for that.

[@seanhepner7813]

@@cgfgsks201 Many of VW’s top rated robots have spinning mop pads, and the S7 has the vibrating one. I imagine the pads should work with grout/crevices a little better.

[@NoExceptionsGuy]

The review is missing out on main hard floor cleaner brands and models such as Dreame Roborock and Narwal. Other than that the channels keeps providing valuable information.

[@helloitsme8265]

I own Tineco Floor One S5 Steam (thanks to this channel), my use case for it (over potentially a robot vacuum cleaner) is that I don't need to think about the objects on the floor that will possibly get the robot stuck each time it runs. When I am using Tineco each cleaning run I can decide on the spot do I move a particular item or no (depending on how dirty I think the area is) avoiding manula work of just picking up and movig somewhere every item every time the robot is scheudled for a cycle. Also in my experience long hair was getting stuck badly in the robot vacuum cleaner I used to have, detangling the brush was a nighmare, in Tineco because of the thick brush it is very easy to deal with that and not very much gets stuck on the thinner sides (where the brush attaches to the vaccuum). Also using the steam version of hard floor cleaner gives me a little more assurance about the cleanliness of my floor without use of chemicals.

[@jasonwiltjer9]

I have the s5 steam and the narwal Freo Z Ultra, and tbh the z ultra is amazing with obstacle avoidance. Almost no need to clean up before sending it out. It also has the best anti tangle brush. So it's great for day to day cleaning. That said, the s5 steam is better for tough dried on messes. Can't beat being blasted with steam.

[@paulalarsen7697]

I have a tineco s5 cordless and I love it. I also have a Bissell Crosswave, corded, and find that's more of a deeper clean but also louder and uses far more water. I highly recommend either one.

[@GershyRapp]

So I have the Narwal S20 Pro - and I love it. I also have the DREAME X40. I think the usecase is slightly different. When I have a quick spot that I want cleaned, b/c a mess was made, or if it's something that is a little bit more messy, the mop vac I think is more suited. For the daily use case, of having my house cleaned every morning, I agree, the robot is king. I use them both regularly. Also, when there is a lot of people around, the robot can be annoying to work with as it has to dodge everyone etc.

[@marleenc8668]

A robot vacuum isn't an option for us because of our older home with a lot of period features such as... a lot of high thresholds 😅 he was continuously screaming that he was stuck. Whereas our hard floor doesn't have this issue. Absolutely love our Tineco❤

[@tyrionlanister-uu7ic]

We have a Qrevo MaxV & a Tineco S5, the qrevo does an excellent job but it cant fully replace the tineco, we mainly use the tineco to clean up after our toddler, when some part of the food ends on the floor. as i explained to my wife, the qrevo is like a an army platoon for large scale daily tasks, where the tineco is a special forces squad that's indented for special assignments :)

[@emilyl1853]

Well, thanks to you and your reviews I bought myself a dreame x40 ultra and now my bissell crosswave pet pro is sitting in the broom closet with nothing better to do but collect dust. I do plan to pull it out once in a while to clean the area and levels that I don’t use the robovac on. I still have a canister vac as I have wall to wall carpet in my basement. I believe each one will stay with me as I use them differently but if I could afford to have a robovac on each level of my house I would definitely do that! I see no reason to buy a robovac that doesn’t empty itself and clean its own mop pads. Let it do all the work! My husband and I were down in the gym and came upstairs to our little Rhoda cleaning our floors for the night. Yes, I named her. That used to be me. We have pets. Every night vacuuming and mopping was necessary. Not anymore!

Interesting to hear about the falling tray on the Dyson G1. I have it as well (for about a month now) but I seem to have a different experience, in that getting the tray out of the machine requires some effort on my part to take it off.

[@Vacuum_dad]

I have a robot mop and a vacuum mop. I use the vaccum mop for big spills since we have kids and dogs. I use the vacuum mop to maintain my floors. I think the upright vacuum mops will always have a place unless vacuum mops like the eufy s1 pro become competitively priced and a slight more advanced

[@NGiggles]

I just bought a tinco i3 and love it! I had to take into consideration the time it takes a robot and noise level! It does have some blind spots because of how the floor head brush is shaped but it's very good! I want the steam one next!

[@seanhepner7813]

I have the bissell crosswave hydrosteam, and assuming robot mops do go over an area twice, then I think you’re spot on about how similar they can be! I realized while using the hydrosteam over the past year that it’s most effective when you go over a surface once, then skip back over it 10-15 seconds later. My theory is, the water from the first pass has had some time to settle into the stain and loosen it up, so by the time you come around the second time, it’s ready to get wiped right up. I imagine a robot mop can essentially do the same thing by moving slowly and passing over an area twice.

[@lilietto1]

Thank you for the review. For me it's simply the price, you can buy something like the Bissel HF3 for less than 200€ or the Roborock Flexi Lite for less than 300€. My house doesn't have big messes to clean (2 adults and a cat) so that doesn't scare me, but i wouldn't like to spend more time on cleaning the tool itself than the floors.

[@rapidchoper]

We’ve got a QRevo Master that we run most days, and I can go over the tiles shortly after its run with our Tineco S3 and still be picking up grey water. I think the robot mops have come an awfully long way, but the hard floor cleaners still have an advantage over an area even when stain performance is comparable.

[@JoeyDee86]

If you have only hard floors, the Eufy S1 Pro is where it’s at. Fantastic obstacle avoidance and fantastic MOPPING, not just spinning dirty brushes like the rest. I love mine and won’t go back to a non-roller bot.

[@ethanol1586]

I bought a crosswave based on your videos, and it is a godsend. I hate mopping, and the crosswave makes an unbearable chore super easy 😂

[@TheDiymovies]

I love this! Seeing the forest through the trees kind of analysis! I use a Dyson v15 submarine. It has that blend of vacuuming and ‘electric swiffer’ (as I like to think of it) and it leads to floors that I’m very happy with. I’m not sure what Dyson was thinking with the Wash G1… it’s seems wholly uncompetitive.

[@VacuumWars]

So good to hear you’re happy with what you have. We definitely could see how the sub would be a great fit for some homes.

[@HygienistDentist]

Totally right. I love my robot mop combo. It cleans so well and scrubs the floor so thoroughly. Why would I use my loud crosswave that mops slightly worse than my L20 dreame. My Dreame is, well, a dream!

[@resetgang6638]

I purchased the Tineco S5 after your last video and was impressed at first but now it drives me crazy. It constantly complains about emptying the dirty water tank when it's only 25% full. It wants to begin self cleaning cycle when I'm halfway done with my small kitchen even after cleaning the debris channel and roller by hand. It's also not very good with grout and leaves a 1" ring of dirt around the baseboards because the roller doesn't extend to the edge. AND I still wind up having to use the broom or vacuum or else my wife's hair gets wrapped around the roller. I think a spin mop and steamer that uses washable microfiber pads would be a better investment.

[@shibbel1]

Love your videos! I have to say, though, I think you’re missing the main use case for these hard floor cleaners. I don’t think many people are buying them to clean up tough stains. For the most part, like you mentioned, people are using them to wash their floors as a maintenance tool since robot vacuum combos are much more expensive. Plus, people like me are buying them for quick cleanups, spilled drinks or even spills with solid material, things that robot vacuums can’t handle.

[@JaniceHarrell]

Currently, I don't have many rugs (dust allergy plus figuring out furniture before getting rugs) and have LVP everywhere in the house outside of stairs because I have a 3 story house. One story (my main) has a robot vac/mop combo, one story (bedrooms) has just a robot vac and one level has neither because its primarily just an entryway. Having a hardwood floor cleaner is nice if I need to get up more stubborn grime than the robot can or if I need to clean up a small mess. Its also handy if I need to mop either of the other floors that don't have a robot mop. I'd love to see a manufacturer make a way to comfortably clean stairs (hardwood, carpet, either). Its a royal pain to use a stick vac on them and even a small upholstery spot cleaner is a pain to do a deeper clean of the carpet on the stairs. I don't even need it to initially climb stairs, either since I'm willing to move it up each tread.

[@ThatSallyChick]

I purchased the Tineco Floor ONE S3 for myself for Christmas in 2023, and honestly, I regret the purchase. I have two dogs that shed quite a bit, so I always have to dry vacuum (either run our robot or use a Dyson stick vacuum) before I use the Tineco. It takes several passes to clean up stuck on food, and it doesn't get close enough under the toe kick of the kitchen cabinets. It is loud, both when in use and during self-cleaning, that I can't use it during nap time. Our robot vacuum is a Ecovacs T20, and we can't use the mop feature because of the dog fur, and it leaves water on the floor around the station if we do. I am better off doing it the old-fashioned way.

[@midlifemom5829]

I like my Bissel purchased at Costco, especially because the dry vacuum and wet mop settings can be used separately

i have a lot to say on this so I hope I get it all in one comment. I own a narwal s20 pro as well as dreame l20 ultra. I don't know if you tested the narwal but you really should. Either way a mop and a robot serves completely different purposes in a house with snall kids, I will send my robot to clean the mess on the floor after a meal , not only is cumbersome and takes longer while bothering everyone around, I just dont my robot to drive over rice and other sticky moist food. The other situation where the mop is the goto is after spills, when to just suck spilled watee or juice again this is no task for a robot. The last thing us obstacle avoidance still has a very long way to go so too many times you just don't want the robot to visit certain rooms, you just keep them out of the routine and use the mop every once a while. the last use case for the mop is the balcony, having a hard floor outdoors , curved for drainage and always dirty beacuse of all the dust outside .. if you feel like sitting there or letting the juds play there than a quick mop is much more handy

They exist because robot cleaner do not have adequate dirty sensor, which can tell the robot to clean some area again and again, until it will shine. If such sensor will appear in the future that definitely change the game. For now robot can only do a schedule task to keep flor in average condition. But for big mess, quick spot cleaning, or spring-cleaning routine its not suitable. Steam mop will be a best choice in that case. And I think two device from both worlds will cover all cleaning tasks.

[@seanhepner7813]

@@mr_Gurme the roborock Qrevo pro and fancier robots have a dirty water sensor, and will send the robot back to remop if the recent mop cleaning was deemed too dirty. Alternatively, you could always program in more passes over a given area/room.

Babies. The hard floor mops are really good for cleaning up after kids and the messes they make.

[@monkeyaround2066]

If you want to know how your test is flawed, leading your to incorrectly conclude that robovacs are better than mopvacs, watch the video “2024 ultimate robot vacuum and mop comparison” by “The Hook Up”… Basically, you didn’t use the white paper to wipe the floor afterwards to see if the floor was actually clean… you may not be able to see the stain, but most robovacs only spread the stains and ketchup around thin enough that you can see them anymore. But much of stain/ketchup would be still on the floor, you can see it if you wipe the floor afterwards with a paper towel.

[@EthanSingh7]

Ok... I understand it now

[@ryantink5967]

you are also comparing a vacuum mop, which vacuums and mops at the same time….to the robots which do so separately, and their mopping feature is more akin to spin mops which probably do a better job than wet/dry vacuums. I haven’t seen any video comparing mopping power of spin mops vs wet/dry vaccuum in terms of mopping power.

[@jasonwiltjer9]

I will say, I have the Narwal Freo Z Ultra, RoboRock S8 MaxV Ultra, and tineco floor one s5 steam, and i don't think your claim that robot vacuums are just as good or better at mopping is accurate. Like just roday, i had stepped on and dried on food from cooking, and beither robit vacuum could get it off with multiple passes. But the s5 steam got it all off in a single pass. So for me, the robots handle day to day light messes, but the s5 steam is for deeper cleaning. Maybe the lesser hard floor vacs are different, but steam is the way to go imo.

I have a 1st-gen Bissell CrossWave and came here to see if you'd done anything with the RYOBI 18V HP SwiftClean VacMop, especially as one of the most objective vacuum testing channels on YT, and I don't see anything about the one I'm looking for. For those of us with lots of hard floors and already have tools and batteries in the 18V One+ ecosystem, how can we possibly overlook the "infinite" battery life that we get from simply changing out a battery pack? You REALLY need to look into the offerings that tool companies provide to stretch the value of buying into their battery platforms.

I unsubscribed because you didn't show the testing, just your end score. which is lame compared to the channel I originally subscribed to years ago. transformation form tester to salesman complete. thanks for the good times.

The roboovacs tested better because your test methodology is flawed. The stain is being spread thin by the robovacs so that you can’t see the stains with your naked eyes, but if you wipe the floor with a paper towel afterwards (in other words concentrating the stains to the paper towel), you can see the stain reappearing on the paper towel. In another scenario, if you walk around with your socks on, your socks will be full of these stains because the robovacs really didn’t clean enough, despite your tests saying that the robovacs mopped well. If you walk around without socks on, the floor would feel sticky. However, that actually would not happen to most of the mopvacs.
