Amazon slashes prices on Ecovacs Deebot robot vacuums for one day only

By

Amazon made significant price cuts on two Ecovacs Deebot robot vacuums it selected for Deals of the Day. In the past two years, robot vacuums have convinced millions of people of the value of the handy household helpers, including me. I bought an Ecovacs Deebot on sale on Amazon as a family Christmas gift last December, and after just a couple weeks my wife said, “That was the best gift ever.”

The Deebot model I bought lacks the advanced features in the Deebot 601 with App Control Deebot or the Deebot 711 with Smart Navi 2.0. Based on our experiences with an Ecovacs Deebot, however, I’m a fan of the brand.

We set up Fillup (we named our Deebot) in about 5 minutes and put him to work immediately on Christmas Day. Like the models in this sale, our Deebot has Auto, Single Room, and Spot Clean modes. With Single Room mode, I put him in a room, close the door, and walk away. The robovac shuts down when done.

We set the Deebot in Spot Clean mode to work on a tricky, reoccurring carpet stain, after having no luck with a spot cleaner we had tried before. Fillup went to work circling the spot and the immediate circumference. After a few minutes, the stain disappeared, and it hasn’t reappeared.

We start the Deebot in Auto mode to clean our single-floor home. I read the model I bought wasn’t great with carpeting, but we have medium-pile carpeting, and the robot never has trouble cleaning it.

The two Ecovacs Deebots on sale today both work with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Each model runs for up to 110 minutes per charge and returns to base to recharge automatically. Ecovacs refers to both of the models on sale as “pet-friendly” because they handle pet hair well and emit only low-frequency sounds during operation so dogs won’t freak out.

Whether you’re looking for your first robot vacuum cleaner or shopping for an impressive, sure-to-be-appreciated gift, these two deals can help you save up to $180, but you have to act today.

How to clean the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo
Ecovacs X2 Combo under a bed.

While the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo handles most of its own maintenance, there are still a few tasks you'll have to perform manually. Thankfully, these tasks only take up a few minutes of your time, and they don't need to be carried out frequently. From checking that the robot's sensors aren't blocked to cleaning roller brushes and the dirty water tank, here's a look at how to clean the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo.
Wipe down the robot vacuum sensors

The robot vacuum that comes with your X2 Combo works best when its external sensors are clean. After scurrying around a dirty house, there's a good chance dust has accumulated on the clear cover that houses all its sensors. Check this after each cleaning cycle and wipe it down with a dry cloth. If it's really dirty, a slightly damp rag can be used before drying it with a towel.
Give a thorough rinse to the dirty water tank
Emptying the dirty water tank is arguably the worst part of owning a robot vacuum. But if you're staying on top of things, it should never get too funky. Consider emptying the dirty water tank before it's full and giving its interior walls a good scrubbing to remove buildup. If you don’t do this, your dirty water tank will get remarkably smelly and slowly accumulate more gunk.

The Ecovacs Deebot X2 Combo is the latest product to join the Deebot lineup. It's fairly unique compared to other robot vacuums in the family, as it bundles a cordless vacuum with the docking station and robot vacuum -- making it an all-in-one bundle for keeping your floors clean.

But aside from the inclusion of a cordless vacuum, what exactly is different between the new X2 Combo and the old X2 Omni? More importantly, should X2 Omni owners feel the need to upgrade? Here's a closer look at the X2 Combo and X2 Omni to help you decide which is best for your smart home.

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra vs. Roborock S8 Pro Ultra: Which is the best robot vacuum?
The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra placed in its dock.

The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra and Roborock S8 Pro Ultra share a lot of similarities -- the least of which is their brand name. Along with the capacity to vacuum and mop in a single cleaning cycle, the two robots can automatically empty their dustbins and clean their dirty mops once the cycle is complete. That alone makes them two of the best robot vacuums on the market.

But while there are plenty of similarities between the S8 MaxV Ultra and S8 Pro Ultra, there are a few key differences that could make one better for your home than the other. From pricing and vacuuming power to navigational skills and more, here's a comprehensive look at the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra and Roborock S8 Pro Ultra.
