V8s
The V8s is a hybrid (robotic vacuum and mop in one). As with all the hybrids in this test, we assessed this model's performance as a robotic mop, only, not as a vacuum. This model lacks WiFi/cellular connectivity, and is operated via a remote control or by buttons on the mop itself. It has separate vacuum and mop modules, so you cannot do both tasks in a single run. Overall, this model is very good.
