Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Cecotec Conga 7490 Ultimate Home

  • Excellent value for money and highly affordable for a model with a self-emptying base
  • Effective 4-in-1 cleaning functionality that sweeps, vacuums, mops, and scrubs simultaneously
  • Strong suction power that performs well on both hard floors and pet hair
  • Convenient self-emptying station that minimizes direct contact with dust for weeks
  • Efficient and structured laser navigation that prevents the robot from bumping into furniture
  • Good battery autonomy allowing up to 120 minutes of continuous cleaning

What customers don't like about Cecotec Conga 7490 Ultimate Home

  • Unreliable and frustrating mobile application experience
  • Mapping issues including difficulty saving layouts or correctly defining specific rooms
  • Occasional software glitches that cause the vacuum to lose its way or struggle to find the base
  • Underwhelming mopping performance that only suffices for light daily maintenance rather than deep scrubbing
  • Reports of long-term durability concerns and a slow customer service response for repairs

Verdict

The Cecotec Conga 7490 Ultimate Home is a 4-in-1 robot vacuum that sweeps, vacuums, mops, and scrubs utilizing smart LiDAR laser navigation, room-by-room planning, and 10 custom cleaning modes. Its prominent technical highlights include a maximum suction power of 4,000 Pa (with a 2,600 Pa suction motor rating), a 2,600 mAh lithium battery providing up to 120 minutes of runtime, and a 2-liter capacity self-emptying base station with BagDetect technology. Main advantages consist of its hands-free auto-evacuation system, automatic carpet turbo boost, back-and-forth scrubbing pattern, and Total Surface technology that resumes cleaning after recharging. However, minor disadvantages include limited high-end object avoidance, an excessively loud self-emptying process, and a strict dependency on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks for application setup.
