What reviewers found
Ecovacs Deebot X12 OmniCyclone

- TechReviewer (8.3/10): Mopping cleaned tile, vinyl and laminate in two to three passes with strong edges; obstacle detection fell short of flagship level and the AI assistant felt unfinished; 84 minutes for a 75 m² apartment. Source
Ecovacs DEEBOT X8 PRO OMNI
- Vacuum Wars (3.03 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 2.30 kPa suction and 24 cfm airflow, 79% carpet sand pickup, 97% pet hair and 0% hair wrap. Obstacle avoidance scored 15 against a 16.5 average and dried stain mopping scored 72 against a 98 average, but it left very little water behind. Source

It cleared hair from carpet in one Max session, removed dried chutney in two passes and avoided a slipper, shoe, cable, socks and tissue box, though a low USB-C cable got caught once.
