Is that a roller mop in a robot vacuum? Yes it is, in the eufy flagship S1 Pro
eufy has managed to integrate a roller mop into its new flagship roller mop, along with a few other key developments.

I never thought that when I started BTTR, the category I would spend the most time covering would be robot vacuums. But there just seems to be so much happening in this space.
eufy has just announced its new flagship S-series of robot vacuums, and the key development is a mop roller, which spins at 170 rpm to clean your floors thoroughly.
Plus, like many of the wet and dry floor cleaners we see, it scrapes the dirty water into a separate tank while pumping clean water mixed with ozone (which apparently helps sterilise your floors) onto the mop to continuously rinse the mop roller.
The mop head lifts up 12 mm when the vacuum detects carpet as well, to help avoid scraping your dirty mop water on your rugs.
Other features
While teh mop roller is the most notable difference, it's not the only spec worth discussing. The S1 Pro offers 8,000 Pa of suction, and is sleekly designed, with a square body that looks kind of similar to the Ecovacs Deebot Omni X5, except with rounder edges and a sleeker black colour.
The base station – which eufy calls the Uniclean station – automatically empties dust from the vacuum, giving as much as 68 days between bag changes. It empties out the dirty water and refreshes the clean, so you just need to make sure that the water tanks are emptied and refreshed.
The base station also cleans the mopping pads with its ozone generator before drying it with hot air.
The S1 Pro offers advanced obstacle avoidance and object detection, promising to avoid getting tangled on cables, while its mapping system can supposedly create maps with millimetre accuracy.
Pricing and availability
The eufy S1 Pro is available now from JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys and eufy.com/au. It has an RRP of $2,699.
