Roborock S5 Max vs Ecovacs Deebot T8+

The older mops were basically small capacity tanks with a pad that just attached to the bottom of the robot. They functioned essentially using gravity...

I may consider purchasing the shaker mop, but for the time being, I vacuum one day, mop the next, then one day off, so the floors are actually staying pretty clean. The T8 works its away around all our chair legs very nicely, and it only got stuck once, behind a curtain. I'm not sure why it didn't avoid the curtain, but this is very good performance in my opinion. We have a small dog and I read that if your dog has an pooping accident, robots won't stop and go around, instead smearing the accident as it goes

The short version; This is a terrific vacuum. My floors have never been cleaner. I am very satisfied with my purchase and could confidently recommend it. I really feel bad for giving it only 3 stars, however, a few minor issues detract from making it the perfect product

Yes, its really good with that - much better than the normal brush rolls with bristles. I tried the Ecovacs T8+ before and that one i needed to clean every 2 days with my 2 long haired cats. Sometimes you need to remove the hair on the ends - also on the little spinning bristle. But thats fast and easy - much less maintanance than other robot vaccuums

It was just programmed differently in terms of its power usage. In any case, the point is that these 150 minute plus numbers are really good, like it'...

Once I got them connected, I said, “Alexa, ask Deebot to go back to its charging dock,” and the robot followed orders and went right there. I then said, “Alexa, ask Deebot to start cleaning,” and it got back to work. It also worked well with Google Assistant, letting me start and stop cleaning jobs with just my voice.

So here is my issue... I think this is a great vacuum if you have absolutely zero thresholds

Your furniture, cabinets, stairs or drop offs, no go zones all need to be subtracted from the SF. It’s actually fairly quiet (on tile or hardwood floors on medium) that you can run it at night. Carpet mode or max suction is louder. It does map out and have a back and forth logic unlike first gen robot vacuums that just randomly turn away as they bump into things

It has been reliable and easy to use. - It does a great job of mapping the house and generally runs in a logical way. - One of my favorite parts is that this is a modular design and can EASILY be repaired by anybody of any skill level. For an expensive investment, this was important to me knowing that I can keep it running for years into the future

TL;DR: Easier than manually vacuuming & sweeping and works pretty well. Much better than cheaper & older models I've used in the past. Pros: It can quickly map out the space and then travel a logical route to completely cover it, even without using the pre-mapping feature. The app works pretty well
