Pros & cons

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra

  • ✓Industry-leading 10000Pa suction picks up pet hair, cereal, and fine dust with ease
  • ✓Hot water mop washing keeps pads genuinely clean and odor-free
  • ✓AI obstacle avoidance reliably dodges cables, shoes, and pet toys
  • ✓Dual rubber brush rolls resist hair tangles better than bristle brushes
  • ✓Excellent carpet detection lifts the mop pad high enough to avoid wetting carpet
  • ✗Launched at $1,800 — newer flagships now undercut it on specs, so only buy it discounted
  • ✗Dock is very large and requires significant floor space
  • ✗Mop pressure is lighter than dedicated mopping robots
  • ✗App has a steep learning curve with many nested menus

Ecovacs Deebot X9 Pro Omni

  • ✓16,600Pa suction
  • ✓Station empties, washes, and hot-water-dries the mop with no manual touch
  • ✓Ultrasonic carpet detection with automatic 10mm mop lift keeps carpet dry
  • ✓252-minute silent-mode runtime covers large single-story homes in one charge
  • ✓YIKO-GPT voice assistant takes natural-language cleaning requests

  • ✗Onboard water tanks are tiny (110ml/90ml) - almost all capacity lives in the station
  • ✗0.22L dustbin means you're relying entirely on the station's 3L bag for real capacity
  • ✗No amazon.com listing at launch - only sold direct from Ecovacs' own site
  • ✗Manufacturer doesn't publish robot-only weight or a warranty term on the product page
  • ✗Too new to the lineup to have verified long-term owner reliability reports
