Reviews last updated: July 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 Plus

  • Powerful 5,000Pa suction provides efficient debris and pet hair pickup on hard floors and carpets.
  • Fast and accurate initial laser-based home mapping capabilities.
  • Convenient self-emptying base station with a large dust bag capacity.
  • Oscillating and vibrating mop pad provides better scrubbing than static, passive mops.
  • Doubles as a home security camera with interactive live video streaming and two-way audio.
  • Includes a built-in air freshener capsule feature to spread a pleasant scent during cleaning routes.
  • Obstacle avoidance system successfully detects and bypasses standard furniture feet.

What customers don't like about ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 Plus

  • Atrocious software and bug-prone app experience according to long-term users.
  • Frequent loss of saved floor maps or trouble recognizing the docking location if minor items move.
  • Mopping pads do not lift automatically, preventing the machine from traversing over carpets while wet.
  • The mopping path leaves occasional dry streaks due to inconsistent downward pressure.
  • Built-in 'YIKO' voice assistant commands can be hit-or-miss, often failing to respond.
  • Pet fur can get tangled in the motor bearings over time, requiring costly or frequent part maintenance.
  • Poor customer service response times and frustrating brand repair policies when components fail.

Verdict

The ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 Plus is a high-end hybrid robot vacuum and mop that delivers 5000Pa of suction power alongside a 5200mAh battery providing up to 180 minutes of runtime. It features TrueMapping 2.0 LiDAR navigation, an AIVI 3D obstacle avoidance system with an RGB camera, and the OZMO Pro 3.0 vibrating mopping system. Major pros include its hands-free 3.2L self-emptying base station that stores up to 60 days of debris, a built-in YIKO voice assistant, an integrated air freshener, and an onboard 0.4L dustbin with a 0.24L water tank. However, notable cons include its high retail price, a bulky base station, and a vibrating mop pad that cannot automatically lift over carpets or clean deep into tight edges.
