OUR VERDICT

Ecovacs is a major robot cleaning brand best known for DEEBOT robot vacuums with roller mops and full service docks, plus the WINBOT window robots we recommend. Its midrange DEEBOTs pack strong dock features for the money, but independent lab tests put Roborock slightly ahead overall, and the standard warranty is only 12 months.

What Ecovacs is

Ecovacs makes home cleaning robots. Its main line is DEEBOT, a range of robot vacuums that also mop, and its US store also sells WINBOT window cleaning robots and GOAT robot lawn mowers Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗ WINBOT W2 Pro Omni ↗ Smart Home Compared ↗.

Current DEEBOT models on the US store range from the T90 MAX PLUS OMNI at $549.99 up to the X12S PRO OMNI at $1,299.99, with bundles above that Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗. Most current models use OZMO roller mops instead of spinning pads, and many have docks that empty the dust bin, wash the mop with hot water and dry it with hot air Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

This page covers the brand as a whole. We review individual models separately. Hands on testing is in progress, and we will update this review with our results.

What it does well

Mopping hardware is the brand's signature. The roller mop design runs across the current DEEBOT range, and higher models add auto lift so the mop rises over carpet Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗. Docks on models such as the T90S PRO OMNI wash the mop with hot water and dry it with hot air Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

Midrange value can be excellent. The Deebot T90 Pro Omni was Vacuum Wars' top pick in the $300 to $600 range, with excellent pet hair and obstacle scores Vacuum Wars ↗. It posted the best pet score we saw at Vacuum Wars, 4.85, with no tangles and all embedded carpet hair picked up Vacuum Wars ↗. CHOICE also concluded that a well priced Ecovacs on sale can be a good choice CHOICE ↗.

Its newer models handle pet hair well. CHOICE found the two newer Ecovacs models it tested performed strongly on pet hair CHOICE ↗, and many current models include ZeroTangle 4.0 brushes Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

Window robots are a real strength. Our top window cleaning pick, the WINBOT W2 Pro Omni, is an Ecovacs model, with a 110 minute battery, a safety rope rated to 100 kg and a 30 minute backup hold WINBOT W2 Pro Omni ↗. The smaller WINBOT mini lists at $239.99 WINBOT mini ↗.

Where it falls short

Lab results are uneven. In CHOICE's head to head, Roborock consistently picked up more sand on hard floors, and some Ecovacs models scored highly while others did poorly CHOICE ↗. Both brands struggled on carpet, with neither scoring over 50 percent CHOICE ↗. Mopping results varied too much to name a winner CHOICE ↗.

The warranty is short. New Ecovacs products carry a 12 month limited warranty in the US, refurbished products get 3 months, and batteries and side brushes are treated as consumables Ecovacs warranty ↗. Some rivals offer more; Dreame's US store sells its robots with a 3 year warranty Dreame ↗.

Popular models sell out. The T90 Pro Omni, the model with the best independent scores, was listed as sold out at $799.99 on Ecovacs' US store when we checked Ecovacs T90 Pro Omni ↗.

The store does not list suction for each model. It quotes a general range of about 8,000 to 20,000 Pa without matching figures to models Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

Pricing and plans

Current DEEBOT prices on Ecovacs' US store when we checked: T90 MAX PLUS OMNI $549.99 (list $699.99); T90S PRO OMNI $899.99; X12S OmniCyclone and X12S PRO OMNI $1,299.99 each; and an X12 OmniCyclone bundle at $934, down from $1,550 Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗. A bundle of the X12S PRO OMNI and WINBOT W3 OMNI was $1,950 Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

Ecovacs sells through its own store and retailers. CHOICE found Ecovacs prices in Australia from just over $250 for the Deebot N20 to $3,000 for the Deebot X11 OmniCyclone CHOICE ↗.

The US warranty is 12 months on new products and 3 months on certified refurbished ones, valid only for products bought from Ecovacs or its dealers and used in the US or Canada Ecovacs warranty ↗. Ecovacs may repair or replace with new or refurbished parts Ecovacs warranty ↗. The store also links to an extended warranty option Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗.

Ongoing costs include cleaning solution and replacement parts; Ecovacs sells cleaning solution kits bundled with several models Ecovacs DEEBOT ↗. There is no subscription.
