A lot of dock for about $315, with hot water mop washing and hot air drying. nextpit measured 85% sand pickup on carpet and found no hair tangle. Obstacle handling is the weak spot, so clear the floor first.
Full Ecovacs Deebot N30 Pro Omni review →- Suction
- 5,300 Pa
- Navigation
- LiDAR
- Mopping
- Basic pad
One of the cheapest ways to get LiDAR mapping and an auto empty dock, and reviewers agree it cleans better than its price suggests on everyday debris. Pet owners with carpet should expect weaker hair pickup, and the basic pad mop needs hand washing. Skip it if your floors are cluttered, since it has no camera to spot small objects.

What reviewers found
Ecovacs Deebot N30 Pro Omni
- nextpit (4.5/5): Picked up 91% of oat flakes and 88% of sand on tile and 85% of sand on carpet. Measured 65 dB at max suction. Battery was at 59% after a 30 min max power vacuum and mop run. Navigation sometimes bumped obstacles. The review was a collaboration with Ecovacs. Source
TP-Link Tapo RV30 Max Plus
- Tom's Guide: Picked up 98.6% of cereal on hardwood and 99.7% on carpet, but only 67.8% of pet hair on carpet; mopping is basic and the pad needs manual cleaning. Source
- nextpit (4.5/5): Called it an excellent budget robot with precise mapping and better than expected mopping; obstacle detection was the weakest area, with frequent bumps. Source
- Blacktubi (8.6/10): Strong carpet suction and a sealed bag dock that lasted longer than claimed; mopping only handles light messes and it can get stuck on stray cables. Source
