What reviewers found

Ecovacs Deebot X11 OmniCyclone

  • Vacuum Wars (3.75 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 2.35 kPa and 23 CFM, 100% pet hair pickup, 85% embedded sand, 0% wrap on 7 in hair, combined mop score 271 and 20 of 24 obstacles avoided. Ranked #4 on its Top 20. Source
  • T3: Cleaned about 1,000 sq ft of mixed floors in 165 minutes. Good vacuuming and excellent navigation, but it missed a dried ketchup stain, swallowed a sock and room voice commands often failed. Source

Narwal Flow 2

  • Vacuum Wars (3.88/5): Lab tests found 84% sand removal from carpet, 88% flattened pet hair pickup, 0% hair wrap and 20 of 24 obstacles avoided; a retest after a firmware update put mopping well above average, but the studio vacuum and mop run lasted only 38 minutes. Source
  • Tom's Guide: Picked up 100% of kitty litter on both floors, 100% of pet hair on hardwood and 80% on carpet, but only 30% and 20% of cereal; reviewer said edges and corners need manual cleaning and it does not live up to its price. Source
