Good review! That happened to me, too, so i just started the mapping process again, which worked out fine. The anti tangle seems to work much better than my downstairs n8, which is always tangling up with hairs. The n20 itself does a great job.
I got mine for Xmas, but can’t figure the mapping, I have a large open lounge kitchen and only keeps to the same are, doesn’t go into the kitchen or lounge room, have the app but I tried again and only goes over same area as before, I noticed it pushed the dog bowl around. But I am excited to have it if I can get it to do the whole house.
Great review. Looking for a vacuum that's almost 0 maintenance and has obstacle avoidance so it doesn't get stuck on random things on the floor when I'm away. I have experience with Ecovacs and the mapping can be a pain, so I probably will pick another brand this time.
It really depends how high the bumps are. The bump from my hallway to my bathroom is about 15mm and it got over that without any issues. Hope that helps!
Probably not, to be honest. I'd choose an N10 at a great price over the full price N20. The N20 has better suction, and probably a bit better battery life, but the mapping is effectively the same, so go for price! (Mopping is also slightly better, but still not great, so not much of a differentiator).
@@bttrreviews Thanks alot. So in terms of cleaning and vacuuming they both are comparable right ? And there is nothing major i will miss out on with N10?
@@t0am1tvats So, excluding the towers, the biggest difference between the N10 and the N20 is maximum suction. N20 is 8000Pa, N10 is 4300Pa. But it typically doesn't go to max suction unless you tell it to. The N20 also has the anti-tangle main brush, though it still tangled in my testing. Capacity on the N20 robot is 200ml vs the N10's 420ml, so slightly smaller, though irrelevant if using an auto-empty station. Otherwise, the vacuums are remarkably similar. They are both entry-level products and can't do things as well as the T-series or X-series, which both have far superior obstacle avoidance for example.

Oh wow, I forgot to discuss mopping here, didn't I? I used the mopping feature once, and wasn't impressed, so didn't really use it again. The first challenge I have is that the mopping unit is a separate attachment. You need to remove the back of the vacuum to insert the mop unit (pre-filled with water) to make it work. That's too much effort for me for a tool that you want to automate your cleaning routine. The second issue is that these types of mops in particular do little more than smear dirty water behind the vacuum as it works around the home. This one has a vibrating function that does help to scrub the floors more than the last generation, but it's still not a great performance. If mopping is an important feature for you, I think you need to shift up to the mid-tier at least, with the circular mopping pads that can do a better job of scrubbing, and auto-empty stations that will wash those mop pads for you. Thanks for the feedback! I hope this helps :)
@@bttrreviews thanks for the answer! I have dogs and I was looking to a vacuum that have a large internal bin to avoid to clog it in minutes 🤣🤣. When you use the mop feature the unit can still vacuum or it's like the model shark ai360?
From what I can tell, the N20 Pro uses Laser Radar rather than LiDAR technology. This guide breaks down the differences quite well I think: lidarnews.com/articles/whats-the-difference-between-laser-radar-and-lidar-technology/ Hope that helps!
Not sure - the y1 Pro isn’t available in Australia so I can’t really comment on that one. The n20 is better than the n10, but not by a huge amount. So if you can find the n10 cheap, I’d lean that way.
I will stop watching your video 1:23 into it as the Eureka E10s came out earlier this, so you don't seem to be update to date on vacuums. I got it for $400, right now its on sale for $300.
but the question is, can you get a slightly more premium robot vacuum e.g. t30s but without the bag similar to this? when is that vacuum coming out?
Good review!

I Like it! how to fix the cyclone?
How does the cyclone work, do you need to press anything or is it automated?

did u put up a invisible barrier over those rooms/veranda?!
I have an issue with my Pro 20, goes back to Doc and says Charging, nxt day start cleaning and its flat..

Thanks for review. I’m thinking to get the black version but it doesn’t have the Pro on it. Not sure if they are much different?
a robot intended to avoid hair tangling allows hair to be tangled, lol. I will pass this one! cheers for the honest review! :)
Can i get the dealer or supplier contact in Kannur district in Kerala state of India?
I don't see the white version of N20 Plus for the US?
I’m in Australia! Not sure what’s on offer in the US, sorry.
hey nick ! i have a hallway with 2 bumps on each side, do you think it will go over it
It really depends how high the bumps are. The bump from my hallway to my bathroom is about 15mm and it got over that without any issues.
Hope that helps!
Does it dry the floor as well ?
No. If you use the mop, it just wipes a damp cloth over the top with a bit of vibration to simulate scrubbing. But it dries pretty quickly.
Great review. Is that real hardwood flooring you have or vinyl pvc?
It's vinyl ;) Much, much, much cheaper 🤣
Great review. Is it a worthy upgrade over n10? I am getting n10 at a great price.
Probably not, to be honest. I'd choose an N10 at a great price over the full price N20.

Does ecovacs n20 pro comes with Lidar technology?
like ecovacs y1 pro
because its not mentioned on the website
From what I can tell, the N20 Pro uses Laser Radar rather than LiDAR technology.
This guide breaks down the differences quite well I think: lidarnews.com/articles/whats-the-difference-between-laser-radar-and-lidar-technology/
Hope that helps!
Yes that spinning thing on top is Lidar
No help from Support Web site in NZ
If you don't have any carpets or rugs in their house, simply remove the rotating brush. Now there's nothing for the hair to catch on to!
this or roborock q8 or s8
Thanks for the review can u suggest which should I buy y1 pro, n10 or n20
