Robot floor washer?

I used to have a roomba floor washer, it did a decent job but took quite some cleaning afterwards. I gave it away

I now use a lightweight rolling bucket with a mop that spins Leifheit clean twist which I think is much better and certainly much quicker and easier

Offer me both and I would choose my Leifhait, no question

I speak as someone who has had two cleaning roombas for many years, one upstairs and one downstairs, the 800 series. I use roomba first, the one downstairs parks under my butchers block. Then I use the mop, so quick and the bucket can hold more water, in my opinion, the mop does a much better job

I have a Roomba that mops but I’m frightened of it, esp the water changing. DH is no help because he was always against it and none of the AC have one. It does a good job though.

We have just ordered a EUFY X10 robot . Watching the video, the pads are washed in situ, in the machine, and dried by a fan .
It is due to be delivered tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing it work!

I've got a Eufy hybrid one but yet to use the wash facility. Can't see how it would do much. Also @Marydoll how do you wash the pad? There aren't any instructions!

If you go onto the Eufy site or You Tube, you will find instructions.

Our tiled floors aren't paricularly muddy so it doesn't have to work too hard. Once a month I give the floors a clean with a steam mop.

We wash the pad in the sink! and I dry it on the radiator.

This is a fairly recent article (above)

I would look for one that can be connected to your drain and water supply as I'm hostile to having to kerp changing the water! Ideally one with a mop drying feature too.

There were some on display at a recent AI expo but I can't find the link now.

I'd have a look here maybe:

We have Eufy one and we love it!
It takes a bit of setting up, but worth it.
