3i G10+ Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo

3.8
(12)

Bottom Line

Choose if you want strong vacuuming, standout edge reach, and space-saving dust compression at a budget price; Skip if deep scrubbing mops or consistently reliable obstacle avoidance/docking on carpet are your top priorities.

Best for

Small-to-medium homes (especially with hard floors) that want strong day-to-day vacuuming, great edge cleaning, and less dock footprint thanks to onboard dust compression.

Not for

Homes that prioritize deep, scrubby mopping, or setups where the dock must sit on medium/high-pile carpet and you need consistently flawless obstacle avoidance.

Verdict

Across reviews, the 3i G10+ stands out as a budget-friendly robot that cleans like it costs more, especially on hard floors. Vacuuming is consistently described as strong, with unusually good edge coverage thanks to an extendable side brush and an extending mop pad. The compact, charge-only dock and onboard dust compression are big wins for small homes. Tradeoff: mopping is more “maintenance level” than deep scrubbing, and several reviewers note inconsistent obstacle avoidance and/or docking issues when the base sits on medium-pile carpet. If you want maximum hands-off mopping, you’ll likely prefer a pricier self-washing model.

Pros

  • Price & Value 4.7 6 reviews 4.7
    Consistently positioned as standout value in the budget bracket, frequently noted as punching above its price with strong features and performance for the cost.
  • Edge‑Following Accuracy (Robot) 4.6 2 reviews 4.6
    Edge-following behavior is generally praised for getting close to baseboards/edges, helped by the extendable brush and the mop extension mechanism.

    A large onboard dustbin is a key differentiator, repeatedly noted as bigger than typical robot bins and central to the small-footprint concept.
  • Emptying & Mess Control 4.5 8 reviews 4.5
    Onboard dust compression is widely praised for reducing emptying frequency and enabling a compact, charge-only dock instead of a bulky auto-empty base.
  • Battery & Charging 4.4 2 reviews 4.4
    Battery life is generally described as strong for the class, often sufficient for full-floor cleans without mid-run recharging, depending on home size and settings.

    Hair pickup on hard floors is consistently praised, with multiple reviewers noting noticeably cleaner floors after runs, especially in pet homes.
  • Corner Cleaning (Robot) 4.4 8 reviews 4.4
    Edge and corner cleaning is a highlight due to an extendable side brush; most reviews praise edge reach, though one notes some leftover debris at corners.
  • Suction & Airflow 4.4 12 reviews 4.4
    Vacuuming performance is repeatedly described as strong for the class, with effective pickup on hard floors and generally solid carpet pickup, though some tests and users note only average real-world results on carpet.
  • Aesthetic design & finish 4.3 2 reviews 4.3
  • Pet-Ready Features 4.3 2 reviews 4.3
    Pet-oriented benefits show up frequently: strong hard-floor hair pickup, good coverage, and obstacle avoidance that can help in kid/pet clutter—though carpet hair pickup can vary by surface.
  • Runtime (Measured, Default) 4.3 2 reviews 4.3
    Measured/real-world runtime impressions are positive overall, with multiple reviewers noting it can complete cleaning cycles in typical homes; performance varies by suction/mop settings.
  • Map & Path Efficiency (Robot Vacuums) 4.3 5 reviews 4.3

    Setup is broadly described as quick and beginner-friendly: plug in the dock, connect in-app, update firmware, and map the home with minimal hassle.
  • AI, Smart & App / Automation 4.2 8 reviews 4.2
    Software and AI features are frequently highlighted (AI auto modes, object recognition, dirt-scan style behavior), though real-world consistency varies and some camera/object recognition features are described as limited by image quality.
  • Mop lifting system 4.2 6 reviews 4.2
    Mop lift is commonly cited as a useful feature for avoiding wet carpets, but lift height and overall mop system remain “basic” compared to higher-end self-washing or spinning/roller mops.
  • Noise level 4.1 5 reviews 4.1
    Noise feedback is mixed: some reviewers call it quiet, while others describe it as louder than expected or having an unusual whirring tone that could bother noise-sensitive users.
  • Automatic shutoff for obstructions 4.1 1 review 4.1
    At least one review highlights the robot stopping when it encounters problematic items (like cables), suggesting it can prevent motor damage during obstruction events.
  • Software-update support / feature longevity 4.1 1 review 4.1
    At least one review references improvements through software/OTA updates, suggesting ongoing updates can meaningfully change real-world behavior over time.
  • Carpet — Low-Pile Pickup 4.0 1 review 4.0
  • Obstacle Avoidance (Robot) 3.9 11 reviews 3.9
    Obstacle avoidance is mixed: some reviews call it impressively capable for the price, while others report hit-and-miss behavior, especially with low/flat objects and certain household items.
  • Streaking / Residue 3.9 4 reviews 3.9
    Streaking feedback is mixed: some reviewers report even, non-streaky results, while others describe streaks or uneven pickup, especially on tougher messes.
  • Sanitizing performance 3.8 2 reviews 3.8
    Some reviews note UV-based sanitation inside the dust bin as a hygiene feature, intended to reduce bacterial growth while debris sits in the bin longer.
  • Carpet — Medium-Pile Pickup 3.8 1 review 3.8
  • Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistance 3.7 3 reviews 3.7
    Tangle resistance is generally decent but not perfect: several reviewers mention the comb helps, yet some tangles still occur, especially without a conical/split roller design.

Cons

  • Mopping performance 3.4 7 reviews 3.4
    Mopping is usually rated as decent for maintenance and edges but not a deep-scrub solution; several reviews call it weaker than the vacuuming side and recommend more advanced mop systems for heavy mopping needs.
  • Privacy controls 3.2 1 review 3.2
    Camera-based features (like video monitoring or object photos) are mentioned, but image clarity is sometimes described as limited, which can reduce usefulness and may raise privacy considerations for some buyers.
  • Maintenance requirements 3.1 5 reviews 3.1
    Maintenance is a notable tradeoff versus premium docks: users often mention manual mop pad cleaning, occasional brush hair removal, and refilling the small water tank.
  • Hair Pickup — Carpets 3.0 1 review 3.0
    Hair pickup on carpets is mixed: some reviewers report strong everyday results, while others (including lab notes) mention pet hair can be pushed around or not fully removed on certain carpets.
  • Stuck resistance 3.0 2 reviews 3.0
    Stuck resistance is mixed: some reviewers report it rarely/never got stuck, while others saw it climb onto objects, wedge itself, or struggle in certain obstacle scenarios.
  • Water tank 2.9 3 reviews 2.9
    The onboard water tank is frequently described as small, often requiring refills for regular mopping sessions, which limits hands-off mopping convenience.
  • Odor control 2.9 2 reviews 2.9
    Odor control considerations come up mainly around mopping: without a self-wash/dry dock, users note you must clean/dry the mop pad to avoid smells after runs.
  • Low-profile design 2.8 2 reviews 2.8
    Height is a limitation for some homes: multiple reviews note it may not fit under lower-clearance furniture due to its taller top housing.
  • Under-Furniture Pickup 2.7 1 review 2.7
    Under-furniture pickup is limited by the robot’s height; it may miss spaces under furniture with low clearance.
  • Docking & Auto-Empty Reliability (Robot) 2.4 3 reviews 2.4
    Docking reliability can be problematic on medium-pile carpet for some reviewers; placing the dock on hard floors is repeatedly suggested as the more reliable setup.

FAQ

Does it work well without a big self-empty dock?

Yes. Multiple reviews highlight the large onboard bin and dust compression as the reason you can go longer between emptying without needing a bulky auto-empty base.

How good is the mopping?

It’s generally described as solid for everyday upkeep and edges, but not a deep-scrub system. Several reviewers recommend something with more advanced mop tech if mopping is your main goal.

Will it dock reliably if the base is on carpet?

Mixed. More than one review reported docking/undocking trouble when the dock is placed on medium-pile carpet; hard floor placement is the safer bet.

Is it good for pet hair?

Often yes on hard floors, with multiple reviewers praising pickup and navigation around pet-related obstacles. Carpet pet-hair results are more mixed, depending on pile and conditions.

Is it noisy?

Mixed. Some reviews call it quiet, while others describe it as louder or having an unusual whirring sound, so noise sensitivity may vary by user and mode.
