What reviewers found
Ecovacs Deebot X12S OmniCyclone
- BGR: Picked up debris well on carpet and hard floors and mopping was strong, though some stubborn stains stayed; first map merged rooms and needed about 15 minutes of editing, and the dock full alert was easy to miss. Source
- The AU Review (5/5): Three weeks in an apartment with a shedding dog; cleaned hardwood and light rugs thoroughly in under an hour, but got stuck on a sock once. 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
- TechRadar: Called it arguably the best robot vacuum the reviewer had tested. 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. Subscores: Value 4/5, Design 4.5/5, Performance 4.5/5, App 4/5. Source
