Hello everyone, we have a tiled floor on the ground floor with few obstacles (approximately 90 m2 (970 ft2) in total). We are already using a robot vacuum, which works well. Now the question came up whether a robot mop would provide additional convenience. Initial research gives an unclear picture, so I wanted to ask here: does anyone have good experience with these robot mops? Is the mopping really reliable and thorough? Especially in the kitchen, there are always spills and messes (especially with kids in the house...) that usually require quite a bit of manual scrubbing. I have read about streaks, puddles of water, poor cleaning performance, even with the more expensive models. Are there big differences between the models? Are certain features important? Maybe you have some general opinions you could share. I'll put it this way: if the robot mop works as well as the robot vacuum, so that if it runs every day, basically no regular mopping is needed anymore, that would be great. But if a robot mop just makes things worse, it wouldn’t be an option for me. Thanks for your thoughts. Ashley

Kreisrund4 Mar 2023 09:39We have a floor mopping robot from Medion that doesn’t just wipe with a damp cloth but uses a rotating roller. It has a fresh water tank and a grey water tank. I pre-treat individual spots in the kitchen and let it run twice; then I find the results good. However, it doesn’t necessarily save time (unlike a vacuum robot). As a tech enthusiast, I prefer maintaining the device rather than mopping myself. In most cases, it takes almost the same amount of time.
