ECOVACS - DEEBOT T20 OMNI

To be fair, my first gen Xiaomi robot vacuum that I replaced last week vacuums way better than the ecovacs T20 omni that took its place.

I mean, it can be both of the things. That Xiaomi vacuumed perfectly, it literally almost never missed a spot, so I can't really imagine how there can be any improvement over perfection ahah In my case I upgraded mostly because I wanted to add mopping, better map management and less noise, and I paid so little for the T20 that I'm fine if it gets 99% of the older robot.

Ecovacs T20 mop and vac 3 years, over 200 hours on it.

I’ll say something good about them! I’ve had 3, T20, X5 and the X9 which is the best so far. I’ve moved them to my other home as I upgrade and still running great. Now the X5 I had to return, the vacuum box door didn’t close tight, I asked for just the dust bin but they said send it all back so I did, no problems here.

My old T20 was my first one and still going strong. Now have the X9 and love it because of all our wood floors.

I started with the T20, still going at our cabin upstairs, X5 got moved to our cabin main floor, gave my X9 to my daughter since they have a dog, X11 at my main home. Everyone is running perfectly. Of course the X11 does the best cleaning.

I returned my shark matrix 2 in 1, I returned my ecovacs t20. Both out of the box would not return to the station. The shark cleaned ok and had a terrible map. The t20 cleaned great and had a good map, but the app froze every single time. The eufy x10 Omni cleans great and works.

Upgraded from the robot that drags the mop around to an ecovac with a water station and spinning mop pads. It’s definitely an upgrade, although still won’t clean any stuck on stains. You need their cleaning solution. My tank stays clean however my friend bought the same model, she doesn’t use the solution and tank gets super stinky.

Depends on the model you buy, I’ve got the one you just drop a capful in the tank. I don’t use it every time I fill up but I think it has something in it that stops bacteria. The model I had before was also ecovac, the software wasn’t great. I think the main complaint was the map disappearing but they’ve fixed that, you can save maps and restore now. Software on the new one is excellent. It also maps your entire house in a few minutes now compared to the old one that would take an hour. I’m pretty happy with it, most of the complaints I’ve seen are for stupid things, like not docking ( they don’t have the base clicked in properly, or have put it in a spot that doesn’t allow enough width etc)

I think maybe Ecovacs Deebot T20 Max is a steal pet hair pickup on your floors is top tier, mop removes fast and beats J7+ hands down.

I've had great success with my Ecovacs T20 Omni. Ecovacs in general is at the top of the Vacuum Wars list again as well.

I got 5 cats in the house and i got a deebot t20 for $300 new on woot and it had been amazing! The floors are so clean. I just gotta keep up on the tanks because the cats like to hop on it and it activates.

Do you have pets? I told my parents what I would say to anyone without pets - if you’re in a relatively clean apartment - the obstacle avoidance isn’t a huge issue. It mainly comes into play when you have dog toys, kids charging cables, shoes and laces around - that it’s worth the extra money. I would have been content with the Omni T20 if I didnt have the kids and dogs. But it would tangle like crazy on cords and long hair. You can find a good enough map/vac for under $600. Just buy a couple year old flagship. Feel free to comment for more questions. I’ve owned like 10 robot vacs in the last 10 years and happy to discuss.

Watch Slickdeals and you will find some really good deals there. I got a Roborock Q Revo for $350 and a Ecovacs T20 for $199 and am extremely happy with both. They empty and auto mop/refill and their obstacle avoidance is excellent.

I bought both a Roborock Q Revo and a Ecovacs T20 this year for $350 & $200 respectively and they work perfect. Even if I have to replace in 2 years I got them for a magnificent price both with self empty and mop cleaning/refilling. Besides that's on you for spending 1.5k+ on something and not adding an extra warranty.

I returned my Ecovacs t20 that kept not being able to find the "cleaning area", requiring a painful remapping to fix the issue. Sometime the base would teleport itself too in a random place on the map. Very unreliable. I switched for a Dreame and it's night and day. The thing just work: reliably! And it's also significantly quieter, both while operating of cleaning the mop pads.

Yeah it map the area the first time you use it. Then gets confused and one of 3 things happens: - it flat out lose its map - it forget where cleaning area are - the base get teleported at a random location on the map and the robot doesn't know what to do. And some of these issues require to delete the map and recreate a new one. Ecovacs: never again.

I returned my T20 to costco after a year of enduring it frequently being unable to find the cleaning area, losing its map, and teleporting the basestation. I switched to a different brand: no more issues and it's *much* quieter.

My T20 was my first and last Ecovacs ever. So happy I don't have to remap on a monthly basis now that I left Ecovacs for Dreame. (Dreame is not perfect, but Ecovacs was horrible)

I owned a T20, that thing would need remaping monthly. It was unreal.
