"got a cheap Ecovacs Deebot about 5 years ago as a test after having the same doubts about the efficacy of them and it's still going strong and has been a god send. ... If it finally dies I'll upgrade to a more fancy version."
"the real game changers are the Omni-stations. ... You definitely want to buy one with a station, that can empty the dust bin, clean and dry the mopping pads. ... Having to only empty and refill the robot once a week, instead of daily was the hugest step in comfort for me personally."

"I had a deebot LiDAR but the avoidance sucked. ... If I have to pick up cords and socks 1st it’s basically useless to me. ... I had to preclean the room, pick up the curtain make sure no clothes were under the bed and put all my floor outlets on the table 1st. ... At that point why not just use a stick vacuum"
"If the area around the Deebot looks different each time it starts (because you dumped shoes/bags/anything within "eyesight" of the dock), it will try to create a new map, even if you turn off multiple maps, and it is extremely frustrating"

Simple answer - no it won't. I'll give you a bit of context and then you decide but from what you've written this won't do your job. So my Y1 does a good job but it got stuck with a dry leaf that has blown in from an open window, it got stuck with a small twine my kiddo pulled from a doll and the dust bag fills up quickly. It works for our home because the mess was already under control. But in your case I think a regular vacuum would be required for the major debris and for regular use, with the dog, I would suggest something which auto empties the bin like the y1 pro plus so you don't spend your time constantly emptying the bin. One more note that nobody, strangely, talks about - these machines are mostly about the software. The first time you use it the house gets mapped. Subsequently you don't have the option to re-map a particular area. You have to re-map the entire house. Also if you want to do the cleaning of a particular area more than once then there is no automatic setting - you have to start the cleaning manually. You can schedule when the cleaning starts but it would clean the full house and you cannot set it to clean a particular area on a schedule. Also there is no way to customize the cleaning depending on what room is being cleaned so you cannot, say, set it to clean the kitchen with a stronger vacuum setting than the rest of the house. These are all things that can be very easily fixed in an update of the software but as of now there are the limitations you'd have to live with.

r/ecovacs • Ecovacs y1 pro reviews? ->It can’t scrub the floor. Doesn’t clean the corners efficiently. You have to do a pre-sweep to remove debris. It gets stuck on small pieces of kibble etc.
r/ecovacs • Ecovacs y1 pro reviews? ->Ecovacs y1 pro plus Using it from past 3 weeks vaccum is good Moping not upto the mark leaves marks Buy with auto bin otherwise don't Dreame has good vaccum robot under the budget of 30k but there is no service centre ( research once again) Wait for 1-2 months you will get some good offers ebig billion day sale I eyed for Dreame L10s prime @34k which is a very good deal but found the reviews not upto the mark so I dropped the plan and went with ecovacs It is a really good investment
r/BuyItForLifeIndia • Best robotic vacuum and mop for Indian households and your experiences ->We have Ecovacs Deebot Y1 pro. It is good and effective but we need to clean the corners and area where it cannot go. It has services locations all over India.
r/hyderabad • Anyone using Robot vacuum? ->I have Ecovacs y1 pro and my cleaning area is 1200 square feet….which takes around 2 hr 30 min to vacuum and mop. I have one small dog….vacuuming 10/10 and mopping 7/10. I suggest you go with the auto emptying…which will be useful.
r/RobotVacuums • Robo vacuum by eureka forbs ->[Narwal Freo X Plus](https://amzn.to/3UpLnYy) \- double brush, compact dust feature. Good product overall, but service, and service centers are hard to find. [ECOVACS Deebot Y1 Pro](https://amzn.to/45FLaWn) \- easy to find service centres, general positive feedback, great for sweeping and vacuum cleaning, mopping is average Decide based on which sweeping purpose is the priority.
r/RobotVacuums • Best robovac ->I’ll never ever gonna buy Ecovacs again. Cheap parts, horrible app, just overall a very frustrating experience.
r/homeassistant • What's the best recommended Robot Vacuum on the market that you really swear by? ->Have a Deebot. Insane quality. But they could really up their game in terms of software - for old and new models.
r/gadgets • iRobot’s future isn’t looking up ->I haven’t seen many good reviews of irobot here, and it doesn’t seem that many people use it. I use an ecovacs deebot myself, and if you’re not in a rush, the X8 pro omni might be worth a look. I’ve had it for a few months and it’s been really reliable so far.
r/RobotVacuums • Best robot vacuum ->I owned a DeeBot and I sent it back after a week. The mapping function was terrible. It was amazing at cleaning but I don’t want to fight with a vacuum. Customer service suggested I join their support group on Facebook for assistance. I can’t even make this mess up. I’m not joining a group to use a vacuum. Instead, I bought a cheap mop/ vacuum combo from Inova and it was amazing. I still use it 2.5 years later. I’m in the market for an upgrade now that budget is larger.
r/RobotVacuums • Recommendations for a RoboVac with good mop functionality ->We have a deebot, one that mobs and vacuums. Don't even hesitate. This thing cleans. We come home and its clean. spill something, he comes mop it up. Its even entertainment for the dog.
r/oddlysatisfying • Cleaning up the mess ->I have an Ecovacs Deebot, and it does a decent job. It has the self-empty, but doesn't work on cat hair unfortunately. However, the vacuum picks up a lot of cat hair.
r/VacuumCleaners • Thoughts on robot vacuums? Is this a good deal? ->I bought an anti-tangle roller for my robot vacuum and it works pretty well. I have a Deebot but I'm sure they make them for other brands, too.
r/CleaningTips • What’s the one cleaning hack that actually keeps your house clean every day? ->I equate robot vacs to hand sanitizer. They do the job, but at the end of the day, soap and water make your hands feel the cleanest. I have both an ecovac deebot and a roomba 405. Honestly, the cheaper deebot worked more consistently than the Roomba. Their app is dodgy as heck. If you have pets with fur, I've found the old school janitor brooms to be the most efficient and effective on floors. Too much fur tends to clog up Roomba vacs. Go cheap to dip your toes in the robot waters.
r/VacuumCleaners • Thoughts on robot vacuums? Is this a good deal? ->Do NOT go for ecovacs deebot... What a shitshow... Worst 800€ I ever spent...
r/homeassistant • Best automatic robot vacuum? ->$500 is a critical threshold. I have had different Deebots for years and they are very helpful, but the real game changers are the Omni-stations. You definitely want to buy one with a station, that can empty the dust bin, clean and dry the mopping pads. The real magic of these robots is, if you have to interact with them, as little as possible. Having to only empty and refill the robot once a week, instead of daily was the hugest step in comfort for me personally.
r/homeassistant • Robot Vacuums Under $500: Are They Worth It ->I have a eufy S1. I chose it because I wanted something that was near-flagship, but <$1000. I also really wanted a roller mop as opposed to spinning mop pads. I hated the idea of smearing dirty pads around the floor. I've had it for about a month and am in love after replacing a very, very old Ecovacs Deebot which had no mapping nor navigation. The improvement is night and day.
r/homeautomation • Whats the best robot vacuum for an average home? ->Using ecovacs deebot and thoroughly satisfied
r/BuyItForLifeIndia • Best robotic vacuum and mop for Indian households and your experiences ->My Roborock has been great for me and it was about $700CAD so well within your budget. Vacuums, mops, all those things. The one I had before was a Deebot Ecovacs. It was $1000 CAD and a software nightmare. Cleaned well (not better than the Roborock though) but the software made me want to throw my phone everytime I used it because I had to remap almost every time I changed floors even though it can apparently save 3 maps.
r/homeassistant • What's the best recommended Robot Vacuum on the market that you really swear by? ->I had a deebot for a couple of years and it was good. So, when it died, I got another one. That one didn't work right and oh my GOSH their customer service was horrible. I ended up returning it and got a Shark. I have no experience with Roborock but will avoid Ecovacs moving forward just because of their horrible customer service.
r/RobotVacuums • Can't decide which one ->Bought ecovacs Deebot. The sensors stopped working after 2 years. Got it replaced and the cost was 8K. A year later, the sensors again stopped working and the replacement cost was again 8K. A friend of mine who bought the Deebot 1 year after me had the same issues with the sensors. Their service is expensive. Even to just visit and check the issue they charge 1K. So don’t buy Ecovacs.
r/BuyItForLifeIndia • Best robotic vacuum and mop for Indian households and your experiences ->My deebot has been decent 🤷♂️
r/homeassistant • What's the best recommended Robot Vacuum on the market that you really swear by? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
