ECOVACS - Deebot T30s Series

"It gives up quickly and does not map well. ... For example, first time out, it was unable to leave the kitchen. ... So it mapped the kitchen and a space outside the kitchen that it could see was called a room. But it was only able to see 30% of the actual room. ... It did not update the map as the dreame would each run. ... Sent out for a remap. Got the center room and failed to get the hallway that did not have a threshold to cross, got 20% of another room it could't get in and didn't place a wall where there was a wall."

"the app and obstacle avoidance was just too terrible to put up with. ... I have sliding glass doors and the mapping messes up with them. ... I spent Hour setting up the map and different zones, specifically for winter to mop the entrance way everyday. Over time it somehow just overwrote and deleted the map and all that work."

"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"

"It had a hard time with the thresholds. ... Did not make it over established ramps that the Roomba's (2 different) and the Dreame made without a problem. ... This resulted in a bad map. ... Once the room showed on a map, you could send it to that room and it would jump the threshold 2 out of 3 times. But it had only looked through the door and saw half the room. So it would either mop/vac half the room or get lost when it got to the section it had not mapped. ... It did not update the maps as it went. So it was not possible to get a 'good' map. ... It had trouble with all but one of the thresholds. ... My thresholds are all 3/4" or higher. At least one is a full inch or better. T30 AI is rated to 20mm which is just over 3/4 of an inch."

"It has a very hard time with thresholds."

"I do not think it really lifts the mops high enough for carpet though. ... I have pretty low pile carpet, and it seems to drag the mops."

"it didn’t lift high enough for carpet and i felt like our carpet was starting to smell a bit damp."
