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 X9 Pro Omni
- BGR (9/10): Called the roller mop the best robot mop available and vacuuming very good. Mapping was error prone and needed about 20 minutes of fixes, and tanks are no longer see through. Source
- Vacuum Wars: Measured 2.76 kPa suction and 27 CFM airflow, 93% pet hair pickup, 0% hair wrap, 158 of 184 on dried stains and 89% carpet deep clean. Coverage was 876 sq ft per charge against a 1,015 sq ft average. Source
