What happens if I skip the mopping dock on a robot vacuum?

Without a mopping dock, you’re the dock — manually refilling the clean water tank and emptying the dirty one every few cleaning cycles. If you forget, the robot stops mopping mid-run and carries on dry-vacuuming. It’s not a dealbreaker if you remember to check, but the dock turns a twice-a-week chore into something you think about twice a year.
