Great review however, from someone who has one of these, take note that the mopping feature is great if you only have one floor to do. Since the robot goes back to its station to clean the mop and then continue its session (I think it does this after 15min) you will not be able to do that on another floor unless you have another station. So basically you have to bring the robot back to the floor where you have the station for it to clean the mops. Then you have to get the robot to exit the station and bring it back to the floor it was on and resume cleaning. Only problem is it wont remember where it was so it will do areas it already did. It’s not like when the there is a low battery and it goes to charge and then resume where it left off. Something to consider.
Amazing, hadn't heard of this. Was looking at the Roborock S7 Pro Ultra but those mopping pads look interesting.. I wonder how the suction compares 🤔 Thanks for sharing 👍
how come absolutely no one measures the noise. It's freaking annoying. - The actual noise it does one minimum settings, then on full now power - when mopping - when emptying into the dust bag (it goes full airplane reactor) - this one dries mops and changes water so measure that too - the marks the base leaves on the floor, just below the bot's little vents over time as it empties the dust - you could also add that it doesn't have to empty the dust every time and can be set up to do it once it knows it's full and other comfort of life convenience settings. - I might have skipped the part where you mentioned Ecovacs suggest to only use water to wash out. I replaced with a mix of 20% bleach and 80% water (which is a lot of bleach) and so it cleans a lot better long lasting stains as it goes over them several times but with bleach and friction from the mops. It's ridiculous how the pain points are ignored while it's the one part that surprises AND matters just as much as the job.
I bought one of these for £1300 - a complete waste of money. 3 months later it as sat in the corner of my kitchen, completely non-functional. The main brush on it is cheap plastic tat that falls to bits after a few weeks. You can’t replace the brush without spending £30 on a “buddy kit” which contains loads of other stuff which won’t have worn out yet - filters, dust bags etc - the brush supplied in the buddy kit failed after 3 days. I then spent 6 weeks trying to get a response out of their hopeless customer support team. The device then started behaving erratically, stopping 10 minutes into a program and complaining of multiple non-existent issues. The x1 Omni isn’t a bad vacuum - it’s just a brand new item, released with beta software and a support program incapable of actually providing support. Unfortunately these two issues render it useless after a couple of months and when you’ve spent over £1000 on a unit that leaves a pretty poor taste in your mouth. Avoid like the plague
Going to reply to my own review here, for balance. The company’s customer service were overwhelmed during the period I was trying to contact them (their UK operation seems to be quite small and an adjunct to their European operation - I don’t know how long ecovacs have been operating in Eu/uk - but at least they HAVE a CS function) couple this with a lack of the brushes in the country due to the UK being a stupid island that insisted on creating a bunch of crazy import rules for itself - it’s understandable that they may have had difficulty fixing my problem. The main brush *does* have a design flaw - that rubbery coating on the mounting bushes is rubbish - and when it fails it causes the metal end of the brush to start digging a little hole in the housing, which causes the whole unit to fail - this is an easily remedied fault however - I stripped the rubber coating off completely and replaced it with 5mm cut from the end of 8mm diameter polypropylene tubing - this fixes the problem completely. To give them their due, ecovacs sent me a complete replacement unit (not bad for a £3 fault), which (with my fix) performs flawlessly. The rest of the brush is perfectly acceptable - it’s been working in my unit for 2 months now.
@@vjn1873 I’d say it is great with a couple of flaws. My use case is tough - I have two big hairy dogs who bring a lot of dirt into the downstairs of my house as well as leaving a lot of dog hair about the place. The Omni does a really good job of cleaning up, but it’s not entirely effort free on my part - I have to clean out the cleaning sink area pretty regularly (which involves either disconnecting and picking up the whole unit to put it somewhere convenient or grovelling on the floor with a head torch and sponge) - the main brush also gets tangled up pretty regularly - which stops the unit where it is, draining the battery until you realise - it’s not *perfect* but it is really good at what it does - we don’t need to mop our floors now - the robot does a good job of keeping them clean. I notice they’ve released a new model - it’d be interesting to see whether it’s just a facelift or whether they’ve fixed things like the poor brush mount and cleaning sink sensors - (the robot occasionally gets into a kind of loop where it parrots “cleaning sink full, the problem is solved, please press start” every time it returns to clean its mopping pads - the manual stated that the answer is to clean the cleaning sink sensors, but helpfully doesn’t tell you where these are or what they look like) - these are niggles now - I would definitely recommend the device

Very good video, I just bought mine

The automation sounds great. I love my iShine robot because it cleans well, but it requires more work than this one.
Where can we buy the cleaning soltuion for the Deebot if you live in Canada? Cant find it anywhere.
amazon
is T10 Omni available in your country? please review it if it is available
Awesome video. Can't understand why you hadn't got more views.
