Ecovacs Deebot T90 Pro Omni skipping a lot of places

Moved from a 6 year old Roborock s5 max to T90 omni pro and the Ecovacs navigation seems 10 times worse than Roborock used to be. I am regretting not have returned it to Amazon in the first 15 days, now I have to live with it. I hope Ecovacs engineers improve this quite provisional software the T90

Haben sich Staubsauger-Roboter nennenswert weiterentwickelt?

Ganz ehrlich: die haben sich nennenswert zurückentwickelt. Wir hatten jahrelang ebenfalls einen Roborock S5 Max-irgendwas, und jetzt haben wir vor einigen Monaten einen Q10-irgendwas mit Absaugstation und allem drum und dran für einen Haufen Geld gekauft. Ich finde ihn von der ganzen Konstruktion, M

Saugroboter ohne Kamera oder ohne Wi-Fi

Roborock is bricking older models with software updates

I thought I was going crazy with my roborock s5 max but I'm having very similar issues. It now takes 3 hours to do a larger area that used to take 45 minutes.

Recommendations for a robot vacuum? Can't figure out which one to trust

two cats and hard floors - Roborock S5 Max or anything in the Roborock S series mid-range is the move, been running one for over a year and the suction on pet hair is genuinely impressive, schedules work reliably, and the app doesn't feel like it was designed to frustrate you. Dreame is solid too bu

Is there a robot vacuum that’s both simple to use and effective at cleaning deep into corners?

Based on my 5+ years of using a Roborock S5 Max, I can tell you that the idea is not to wait for those hairs and dust to accumulate at the corners. If you run the robot on a daily basis, it will just reduce the amount of hairs and dust left, that would otherwise stuck in the corners. Of course, this

Narwal Flow 2 - A Robot With Too Many Weaknesses?

Actually I’m thinking that the flow 2 will replace my Z60. I was looking for the eufy s2 because I loved the eufy s1 . But the S1 was outdated on features. The S2 was more a downgrade then a update. Now it looks like the Flow 2 can be my Eufy S2. A lot stuff is just software, I don’t know Narwal but

Roborockers that switched: how’s it going?

S5 Max to QRevo Master to X50 Ultra. The Dreame is superior in everyway apart from the navigation which is significantly inferior. Often times takes 8 hours what Roborock would finish in 90mins and gets lost frequently too.
