At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, a cordless vacmop can be a life-changing purchase. At the very least, a cordless vacmop will revolutionize your floor-cleaning routine because it can pick up dry debris like dust, dirt, and pet hair—along with grease, grime, and even spilled milk. And it does it all at the same time.
These vacuum-mop combos are hard floor cleaners (meaning they’re not going to do much for your rugs or carpets) that look a lot like slim upright vacuums, but they're generally a little bulkier than stick vacuums because they have two separate water tanks. One feeds clean water and cleaning solution onto a rotating soft brush roller that mops the floor just before the device sucks up that dirty mop water along with any other small particles. The solid stuff gets filtered into a separate compartment and the dirty mop water goes into the dirty water tank. Ideally, the whole process leaves your floors pretty dry too.
Since 2022 I’ve tested 16 popular models to find the best cordless vacmops at various price points for cleaning hard floors in the kitchen and beyond.
- The best cordless vacmop overall: Tineco Floor One S7 Pro
- Our budget pick: Tineco GO H20 Sense
- A real vacuum cleaner with a wet mop option: Dyson V15s Detect Submarine
The cordless Tineco Floor One S7 Pro has been my top pick since it was released in 2023. However, in 2025 it just barely edged out a new comparably priced floor cleaner from Dyson based on its slightly longer runtime and the fact that you can find a sizeable coupon to clip on Amazon, making it a considerably more affordable device.
Keep reading to learn more about each of our top picks, how we tested, what we looked for, and the other cordless vacmops that didn’t make the shortlist.
Best overall: Tineco Floor One S7 Pro
What we love: The Floor One S7 Pro is Tineco’s top-of-the-line vacmop, and in my testing, it left my floors cleaner and drier than any other model I’ve tried. It runs for up to 40 minutes on a single charge, though a shorter run time is possible if Tineco’s proprietary iLoop sensor technology detects an unusually messy or wet spot and adjusts the machine’s suction power, brush roller speed, or clean water flow as needed. The Floor One S7 Pro also offers edge cleaning on both ends of the roller head (atypical among vacmops), which makes it possible to mop under kitchen cabinets and along baseboards from any direction, leaving less than a quarter inch of uncleaned floor (models without edge cleaning leave much bigger strips). You’ll get a guided video tutorial on the LED screen when you power up Floor One S7 Pro for the first time and that screen also has indicators for cleaning mode, battery level, and malfunctions/maintenance alerts.
This cordless vacmop has two self-cleaning cycles (quick and super) and the charging dock has storage for the accessories, which include a spare microfiber roller, a cleaning brush, a second HEPA dry filter, and the small bottle of Tineco’s concentrated floor cleaning solution that ships with it.
What we’d leave: Aside from the high suggested retail price ($699 at the time of publishing), there are a few things I don’t love about this vacmop. For starters, pet hair can accumulate under the roller even after the self-cleaning cycle. Cleaning out the debris trap in general can be kind of gross, but that’s true of every vacmop if you have pets.The voice assistant—though helpful when you are learning how to use the machine—can be kind of annoying and the default volume is loud. Luckily you can disable it with a button or in the companion Tineco app. At 21.5 pounds, it’s also heavier than many other models, but if you’re not planning to carry it up and down the stairs regularly, weight really shouldn’t be an issue.
My only other gripe is more of a complaint about Tineco as a brand than this particular model, but it’s really hard to make sense of Tineco’s myriad offerings because there are multiple variations on every model. It’s even easy to mix up the base models too. For example, when browsing or comparing prices online, it’s easy to confuse the not-smart iFloor 3 with the smarter and more expensive Floor One S3—and that’s before you even take into account the variations on those bases (Breeze, Complete, Ultra), which vary by retailer and usually have more to do with included accessories than cleaning features. It’s why I try to provide specific links to the specific models we recommend.
Specs
- Weight: 21.5 lb.
- Run time: Up to 40 minutes
- Proprietary solution: Yes (included)
- Self-cleaning mode: Yes
- Included accessories: Cleaning/docking station, cleaning brush, brush holder, cleaning solution, spare microfiber roller, spare HEPA filter (some accessories may vary by retailer)
- Warranty: 2-year limited warranty
Budget pick: Tineco GO H20 Sense
What we love: Tineco’s new GO H20 Sense Cordless Floor Washer doesn’t do as much or run as long as the pricier Floor One S7 Pro, but it cleans quietly and efficiently, leaves floors mostly dry as it goes, and it’s the only vacmop I tested in this price range that comes with a HEPA filter and an edge cleaning motorhead. Speaking of price, it’s often on sale, making it similar in price to another Tineco budget model I liked, the iFloor 3, that lacked any edge cleaning capabilities.
Unlike the iFloor 3, this Tineco vacmop does feature the brand’s proprietary iLoop technology that senses messier parts of the floor and adjusts the suction power and functions for more efficient cleaning. The GO H20 Sense also has an LED screen with helpful indicators and alerts, and comes with a self-cleaning station/charging dock that, like my top pick, has spots to hold the accessories. The model/variation I tested came with an extra microfiber brush roller, an extra HEPA filter, a cleaning brush, and a small bottle of cleaning solution.
What we’d leave: My only real complaints are the sorts of compromises you should expect to make when dropping down this dramatically in price: The water tanks are about half a liter each and the maximum run time is only about 25 minutes. It’s also worth noting that Tineco's hectic and confusing model/naming issue continues with the GO H20 series. I tested the GO H20 Sense (the smart version) but at Walmart alone, you can also get the GO H20, the GO H20 Max, the GO H20 XL, and the GO H20 XL+GO Mini, which comes with a dry-only hand vac. The smart features of the Sense make it worth choosing it over any of these similarly named models though.\

If you want a real vacuum with a wet mop option: Dyson V15s Detect Submarine
What we love: I’m going to get this out of the way right now: The Dyson V15s Detect Submarine is a versatile, space-saving floor cleaner but is not a true vacmop. It doesn’t vacuum and mop at the same time. It does, however, do both things quite well, and if I were limited to only one floor cleaning device, this would absolutely be it. That’s because, with zero exceptions, true cordless vacmops suck at actually vacuuming rugs and carpets—and not in the way you want them to. Dyson’s V15s Detect Submarine somewhat solves this problem by combining the powerful suction of the best cordless vacuum out there with a wet mop.
The V15s Detect Submarine is, first and foremost, a powerful Dyson stick vacuum with all the standard Dyson features and accessories, including HEPA filtration and multiple motorheads for carpeting and hard floors. But the Submarine is the only Dyson vacuum cleaner that also comes with a wet roller head to mop hard floors. Unlike the other vacmops here, it doesn’t actually use suction as it mops—though theoretically the vacuum would be good enough to suck up all the debris in the first place—but the dual spinning brushes will pick up and filter particles and pet hair into a small debris tray. The Dyson is also easier to clean, because everything that has to do with mopping (clean water chamber, dirty water chamber, debris tray) is contained within the mop head. That’s a good thing considering it doesn’t have a self-cleaning mode.
While the Submarine mops sufficiently with just water, you can add diluted, gentle household detergents to the clean water tank if you feel like you need a cleaning solution for your floors.
What we’d leave: It only has one wet cleaning mode, which left my floors a little wetter than the other high-end vacmops I tested. Also, this is a pricey device. But if you’re short on space and have a lifestyle (or a pet) that justifies splurging on a really powerful vacuum cleaner, the Submarine is only $150 more than a Dyson V15 Detect without the wet mop component.

How we selected and tested cordless vacmops
I have tested 16 popular and highly-rated vacmops in my own home, which happens to be a perfect testing ground since I have two kids and a 90-pound rescue dog who, in spite of twice-monthly grooming, sheds quite a bit. As much as I want to be, I’m also not a stickler about shoes in the house, so plenty of dirt gets tracked in too.
Before testing each one on my dirty floors, I assembled it according to the manual or quick-start guide, then fully charged the device so I could note run times.
I used each one to clean different floor types: the hardwood floors throughout my home, the tile floors in the bathroom, and a textured black kitchen floor. I also took each one across some of my area rugs, even though only a few were indicated for use on rugs or carpets. As I noted earlier though, even the ones that claimed rug cleaning capabilities didn’t do anywhere near as good a job as a vacuum cleaner because they lack the suction power.
It is possible to get robot vacuum mops that have similar wet mopping functionality.. However, for the purposes of this review, I only tested upright vacuum mops. And while I have previously tested both cordless and corded vacmops, as of 2025, I’m no longer testing corded models because cordless models are much easier to maneuver and they’re efficient enough to cover lots of ground on a single pass.
What makes a good cordless vacmop
Cleaning power
A vacmop should have enough suction power to clean a messy or dirty kitchen floor on the first pass and ideally not leave much water behind. Though cordless vacmops can’t compare to, say, a Dyson vacuum, they should still be able to pick up dirt, debris, and pet hair from hard floors.
Edge cleaning
As of 2025, it’s pretty standard for cordless vacmops to have a brush roller that extends to at least one edge of the motorhead making it possible to clean along baseboards and under cabinets. Without an edge cleaning motorhead, the vacmop will leave a little uncleaned strip of floor along the walls, cabinets, and appliances.
Runtime and efficiency
Battery life ranges from 20 minutes to about 40, and I wanted a device that could clean all of the exposed hard flooring on the main level of my 1,200-ish-square-foot home. All of my top picks cleaned all of the exposed flooring (not covered with rugs) on a single charge and before the battery ran out. I also wanted to make sure the clean water tank could hold enough water to last an entire floor-cleaning session.
Ease of use
If a vacmop is complicated to use I’m less likely to actually use it, so I looked for models that were easy to fill with clean water (and cleaning solution if the machine called it). I also preferred the vacmops with intuitive operation right out of the box. A good vacmop should also offer clear alerts for clogs, malfunctions, and when attention is due to the clean water tank or the dirty water tank.
Size and maneuverability
The motorhead of a vacmop shouldn’t be so bulky that it won’t fit under lower kitchen cabinets. It should also be easy to maneuver around furniture and other obstacles, and able to get into corners and tight spaces with relative ease. The handle ideally reclines enough to clean under furniture too.
Cleaning and maintenance
Vacmops aren’t exactly fun to clean and unlike the best robot vacuums, there isn’t yet a fancy model that has an auto-empty feature. Still, most have a self-cleaning cycle that you can start at the push of a button once you return the device to its docking station. Even (well, especially) after the self-cleaning cycle, these things can be kind of gross to clean, so I looked for models that made it easy enough to clean the dirty water tank and filters.
Accessories
Because a vacmop’s rollers remain wet after cleaning, a charging or storage dock of some kind feels necessary. And if the vacmop’s manual calls for a cleaning solution it should be easy to order or pick up at a big box store and affordable to buy. Bonus points for vacmops that came with cleaning tools like brushes, extra filters, and spare brush rollers.
Other cordless vacmops we tested and liked
It’s my job to recommend the very best cordless vacmops, but not everything can take a top spot and there are some very good floor cleaners that didn’t quite make the cut. If you’ve never used a vacmop, any of these machines will still revolutionize your floor-cleaning routine.
The Dyson Wash G1—Dyson's first standalone vacmop—came very close to being my top pick this year. It's a sleek, simple floor cleaner that's easy to use and easy to clean and it offers edge cleaning on both sides of the motorhead, making it possible to clean along baseboards and under cabinets from any direction. The dry dirt trap is in a little sliding tray between the two brush rollers and it does a good job of collecting anything solid before the dirty water makes its way to the dirty water tank. It has a 35-minute runtime (the Tineco Floor One S7 Pro runs for up to 40). It cleans with only water (though you can add cleaning solutions from other brands) and comes with a very compact charging/self-cleaning dock. It comes with no accessories, however, if you order directly from Dyson you’ll get two spare microfiber rollers.
A former top pick in earlier tests, the Tineco Floor One S5 Smart Wet Dry Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is a cordless wet-dry vacuum cleaner that converts to a handheld vacuum (note: the hand vac configuration cannot pick up wet messes) and has edge cleaning on one side of the motorhead. Though it only has a 20-minute run time, it quietly and effectively cleaned my modestly-sized kitchen, living room, dining room, bathroom, and hallway in a single pass without leaving any water behind. That efficiency is a result of Tineco’s iLoop technology (the thing that makes it a “smart” device), but newer Tineco models are equally efficient, have longer run times, and more features.
The Tineco iFloor 3, was booted from the top picks by the TIneco GO H20 Floor Washer only because the GO H20 offers edge cleaning. But this is still a good vacmop at a good price. It cleans powerfully and efficiently, even without smart technology. It has a backlit LED display that provides visual indicators for battery life, power, and tangles in the brush roll. It will also indicate when the clean water tank is empty or the dirty water tank is full. It has a 25-minute runtime and powerful suction that easily and efficiently cleaned my hard floors on the first pass in its default mode, but there’s a more powerful “max” mode should you need it. I was also surprised that it used very little water and solution when cleaning my very messy kitchen floor. This model has a HEPA filter and a self-cleaning function.
In my years of testing floor cleaners, I’ve been very impressed with Shark vacuum cleaners (their stick vacuums are an especially great value), and I liked the cordless Shark Hydrovac Pro XL when I tested it in 2023. It’s lightweight and easy to use; I was able to get it up and running without opening the manual. The motorhead has little LED headlights which make it easy to see dirty spots on dark floors and dust on light floors, and I appreciate that the foam filters are washable. The brush roller is apparently treated with an "antimicrobial substance to preserve the roller and resist bacterial odors,” and while I didn’t notice an impact on the floor cleaning, it’s a nice touch that could help keep the whole device smelling fresh even after long-term use. It did leave more water on my floors than other vac mops, and it’s noisier than comparable models, but it’s still a very good cordless vacmop.
I tested Hydrovac Messmaster (WD260 Series) in 2025 hoping it would be an upgraded version of the Shark vacmop above. Other than the fact that it left my floor drier than the Hydrovac Pro, it’s comparable. It’s lightweight and has little LED lights on the motorhead, which are nice features. But it’s also louder than other mopvacs and it offers no edge cleaning—which is something you really want in the kitchen. The 3-in-1 label is also misleading since the three things it does are vacuum, mop, and self-clean—three things all cordless vacmops do.
There’s nothing necessarily wrong with the Bissell Crosswave X7 Cordless Pet Pro Multi-Surface Wet Dry Vac, but it’s more expensive than better-performing vacmops and, in my testing, it didn’t quite live up to its “Pet Pro” moniker. Still, if you’re in the market for a basic upright vacuum cleaner that sucks up wet and dry messes and can also function as a mop—or if you prefer to vacuum your hard floors before you mop them, this model might work for you. It’s not as powerful as other models I tested and in dry vac mode, didn’t suck all of the dog hair out of my rugs. It also left a little more water on my wood floors and there’s no alert when the clean water tank runs dry. Every model of Bissell Crosswave I’ve tried is a little annoying to use, because unlike most vacmops on the market, the default mode is dry vacuuming, and to engage the wet mopping function, you have to keep your finger on a trigger. Crosswaves are also some of the only vacmops indicated for area rugs in wet cleaning mode, but it’s not a true carpet cleaner and definitely wouldn’t clean up pet messes on a rug (for that you want something like Bissell’s Little Green).
Vacmops we tested and don’t recommend
Hizero Bionic Hard Floor Cleaner
The Hizero Bionic Hard Floor Cleaner has a great self-cleaning feature, so when I first tested vacmops in 2022, this was the easiest model to clean. It was also one of the quietest even in the max cleaning mode, because unlike most cordless vacmops, it doesn’t actually use suction to pick up dirt and debris. According to the manufacturer, the polymer roller is actually supposed to mimic the physics of a dog licking stuff up off the floor. It had a rough time with my textured kitchen flooring as well as the wonky 100-year-old wood floors throughout the rest of my house. The exact model I tested appears to be discontinued, but a very similar model is still available for purchase.
Bissell Crosswave Hydrosteam Corded Wet Dry Vac
I’ve tested multiple Bissell Crosswave models and their biggest selling point is versatility. They work as dry vacuum cleaners or as vacmops. The Bissell Crosswave Hydrosteam Corded Wet Dry Vac is a triple threat because it can also be used as a steam mop. Steam is great if you want something that sanitizes, and the steam function on this model cleaned a gunky, greasy mess off of my textured kitchen floor better than the Tineco S7 Pro in max mode. Still, I don’t recommend this particular model. In addition to the cord (typical of a device with a steam feature because they need more juice), I didn’t find it to be a very powerful dry vacuum or wet mop vac, the brush roller doesn’t go all the way to either edge of the motorhead, and it malfunctioned when I tried to transition from a tile floor to a flat-weave rug.
Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro Multi-Surface Bagless Wet Dry Vac
Overall, the Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro Multi-Surface Bagless Wet Dry Vac did a good job cleaning my floors, and the clean water tank had indicators to let me know how much water to put in it for small areas (up to 350 square feet) and large areas (up to 700 square feet). But it’s corded and it didn’t clean as well as similarly-priced cordless models.
Eureka All in One Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner
The Eureka All in One Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner was fine—and similar to the corded Crosswave Pet Pro above. It was also louder and harder to maneuver than the Crosswave, but it looked nice, was comparatively affordable, and came with some handy cleaning tools.
Discontinued vacmops we tested
You may still find these in stock at various online retailers, but the models have been discontinued, and even if they had not been, they didn't top my testing.
Roborock Dyad Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum
When I first tested vacmops in 2022, the Roborock Dyad Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum was the only model that had true edge-to-edge cleaning on both sides of the motorhead and according to the product description, cleaning solution was only needed for deep cleans. Unfortunately, it took me the better part of an hour to get it working for the first time and I had to use salt to make happen (yes, it was a whole thing). It did eventually do a good job cleaning my floors, but the edge cleaning also turned out to be kind of pointless in my kitchen because the bulky motorhead wouldn’t fit into the area where my lower cabinets pop out. This model has been discontinued for a while, but subsequent models, including the also discontinued Dyad Pro had similarly bulky motorheads. Roborock has since released more compact models, which I may consider testing in the future.
Hoover FloorMate Deluxe Hard Floor Cleaner
The Hoover FloorMate Deluxe Hard Floor Cleaner was a corded floor cleaner that felt more like a street sweeper than a vacmop. It was big and bulky and had flat, spinning brushes instead of a soft microfiber brush roller. It was pretty useless for cleaning up everyday messes from my hard floors and couldn’t get into corners at all. This seemed more like something I’d use to do a cursory clean on a laminate gym floor after a dance (well, except for that pesky cord).
INSE Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner
The INSE Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum Cleaner reminded me a lot of the Tineco iFloor 3, the clean water tank was built into the motorhead. And instead of a liquid cleaning solution, it takes dissolvable solution strips. The motor felt a little aggressive but it seemed to do a very good job cleaning my food because I emptied some disgustingly-dark water from the dirty water tank multiple times in a row.
