ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 Omni

The robot sucks very powerfully and mops very well in the places it goes. Too bad he skips some corners, so you still have to chase them with a vacuum cleaner or mop. It drives criss-cross and very randomly and is therefore quite "stupid" instead of "smart". He would learn via AI, but I haven't noticed much of that yet. It also often gets stuck in the same places. Due to the many criss-cross driving and maneuvering, he broke my carpet in several places (high pile carpet of 1.5 cm combination wool/silk). Our previous vacuum cleaner robot did not have the advantages of this Ecovacs Deebot, but it did clean systematically (drove up and down the rooms), which was much faster and more efficient and it did not miss a single square centimeter. It also just rode up and down my carpet and never damaged it.

The vacuum cleaner is a valuable addition to the household. It's not loud, has a handy app, delivers thorough cleaning and the station offers useful features, such as steam cleaning mop pads, so you don't have to worry about it much. Unfortunately, the robot does not notice small cables, which resulted in the loss of an iPhone charging cable. The AI program is not always smart, so the routes are sometimes illogical. As a result, he got lost twice, after which the robot created a new folder and could no longer find the original route.

We have a laminate floor with a carpet near the sofa and a rug in the open kitchen. Unfortunately, both carpets are not recognized by the device until 3 re-mappings, and unfortunately you cannot manually add a carpet either. You also cannot determine the size of the furniture yourself, because you are dependent on the standard dimensions. I have a sofa with fairly high legs, but unfortunately it does not go under the sofa. As I already indicated, I have performed a mapping 3 times, but unfortunately it does not do this properly and overlooks many places. All in all for a 1000 euro device it is worthless.
