About this deal

The Deebot X1 Omni's clean and dirty water tanks each have a 4-liter capacity. When I run the mop daily in my roughly 1,000-square-feet home, I only need to empty and refill the water tanks about once a week. The S7 MaxV Ultra's water tanks are a bit smaller, so you have to refill and empty them more often. The X1 Omni's water tanks and accessory storage box (Photo: Angela Moscaritolo)

As I learned from testing other robot vacuums with this feature, if you wait too long to empty the dirty water tank, the liquid in there really starts to smell. I recommend periodically washing the inside with soap, or wiping it down with a disinfectant, before reinstalling the tank in the base station.

Get to Know the S7 MaxV Ultra 

And it's not just empty words, the manufacturer is doing a lot about it. You can read more about this in the data protection guidelines. Precision LiDAR navigation accurately maps your home and makes all smart features possible, from virtual No-Go Zones, to Multi-Level Mapping and more. Furthermore, you can also see wave-like design elements around the laser tower. These probably represent the pulsating mopping plate (sonic mopping). On the other hand, larger areas can be mopped in one go (without having to fill the water tank by hand halfway through...). According to the manufacturer, the battery capacity in the lowest vacuum setting is sufficient for a total runtime of 180 minutes.

Furthermore, the dark surface magically attracts dust. Be prepared to wipe the robot regularly with a cloth. On top, the robot has an Auto mode button and a raised TrueMapping Distance Sensor, which allows it to map and efficiently navigate your home. Similar to a self-driving car or drone, the X1 Omni uses Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) laser technology to learn and map your home's layout. Pull off the silver cover on top to access the robot's main power switch, Wi-Fi status indicator light, and internal dustbin. (Photo: Angela Moscaritolo) Then the robot vacuum slightly nudges the object, recognises that there is an obstacle and looks for a way around it. On the bottom, the robot features six cliff sensors that prevent it from falling down the stairs, a carpet detection sensor, one side brush for edges, and a main brush roll.

Roborock's Best Yet

At first we thought that the manufacturer had made a mistake here. But with a little thought we realised: the colour of the power cable was chosen deliberately because it will hardly be visible on white walls. Based on internal testing carried out by the manufacturer according to IEC 62885-2:2016 / 5.8 standards, using Max+ mode with a full battery. Actual results may vary according to the home environment.

To wake up the voice assistant, just say, "OK Yiko," and wait for it to reply, "I'm here." Yiko supports a wide range of voice commands, including "start cleaning," "make a new map," "mop the kitchen," and, "go mop the floor around the living room sofa." You can even say "come clean here" if you're in the same room as the robot, and it navigates to your position. Similarly, when you tell it, "don't vacuum here," the vacuum moves to a different spot. Yiko is enabled by default; to disable it, just navigate to More Settings in the Ecovacs app, select Yiko Voice Assistant, and toggle it off. We measured the base station to be 42.0 cm in height, 41.0 cm in width, and 49.5 cm in depth. This is quite a large size to fit into the house and is something you should consider before buying. You must have access to the base station because you will have to empty the dirty water tank, fill up the water tank, and change the dust bag from time to time. Then the S7 MaxV was sent to mop over it a total of 3 times. We set the water intensity to maximum.P. S. : The brush is made of very durable rubber. Therefore, it is much more resistant and more difficult to damage. Front light: the S7 MaxV automatically switches on the lamp in poor lighting (we recommend leaving this setting activated). 🔦

Once you pair the robot, the app walks you through some of its features and prompts you to install firmware updates. During the initial setup process, the app gives you the option to toggle certain features, including map saving, multi-level mapping, Less Collision Mode, and pet avoidance. During the setup process, the app gives you the option to toggle certain features Compared to standard cleaning route mode. Actual results may vary according to the home environment.

Getting to Know the Roborock S8 Series

The app also supports and suggests routines that let you apply frequently used cleaning settings with a single tap. It suggested an After Meals routine, for instance, that sends the robot right to the kitchen and dining room to vacuum and mop. Also good to know: The mop is moistened at the station before the robot starts. This means that the mop is wet from the first moment of cleaning and your floor can be mopped optimally. 👍 Regulate the mopping intensity via the app It marks larger objects (doors (1), cupboards (2), table legs (3), etc.) on the map and avoids them during its cleaning trip. Robot vacuum cleaners are not designed for such high-pile carpets. We recommend using a powerful Dyson cordless vacuum. We have tested the noise emission in various settings and tested the noise emission when the dust container is emptied into the base station. We measured the robot as follows:
