The Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni features a new roller mop system, and it's a radical improvment over both mopping plates and pads.
Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni review: rolling in the right direction MSRP $1,300.00 Score Details “The X8 Pro Omni’s new roller mop makes it one of the best robots for cleaning hard floors.” Pros Cons Table of Contents Ecovacs has created some innovative robot vacuum s over the years, including a handful that come bundled with a cordless vacuum like last year’s T30S Combo.
Keep rolling, rolling, rolling The main attraction of the X8 Pro Omni is its innovative roller mop. Officially known as the Ozmo Roller, it’s a fantastic piece of engineering that removes many of the pinch points found on other robot mops. As the robot glides across your floors, 16 clean water nozzles will continually wet the mop. At the same time, the mop is being cleaned by a built-in scraper that wrings out the dirty water and debris it’s picked up.
Gives obstacles a wide berth Obstacle avoidance and navigation are important aspects of robot vacuums, with many robots getting tangled on cords or rolling over toys. That’s not the case with the Ecovacs X8 Pro Omni. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. During testing, it gave obstacles such a wide berth it missed a significant amount of floor space. For example, the X8 Pro Omni easily avoided a charging cable I threw on the floor, but it left several inches of uncleaned carpet around each side.
No humans necessary Robot vacuums should be autonomous. A device that requires little to no input from a human is closer to the dream of a robot vacuum than something requiring daily interventions. For the X8 Pro Omni, you’ll likely go weeks before needing to do any maintenance. So long as you’re picking up clothes, shoes, and other obstacles before each cleaning , the robot does pretty much everything else.
Verdict With an inventive new mopping system, loads of suction, and an automated docking station, the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni is a workhorse. Homes with hard floors will find it to be one of the best robot vacuums, as few competitors clean as well as the Ozmo Roller. However, the X8 Pro Omni isn’t perfect.
