ECOVACS Deebot M80 Pro: Cleaning Robot with Vacuum and Mop Combination
The ECOVACS Deebot M80 is a budget cleaner with a powerful 3000 mAH battery of NI-MH type. It combines vacuum and mop to provide a more thorough cleaning of stains of various kinds. This device can be controlled by voice if you connect it to an Alexa device.
Dimensions
Despite having a large 500 mL dustbin, the Deebot M80 has 13.9 x 13.9 x 3.3 inches, which means that it’s not too tall being compact enough to clean in hard-to-reach places. Weighing 9.7 pounds, this model provides great portability.
Features
The ECOVACS Deebot M80 vacuum cleaner works for 110 minutes on one charge. It takes 4 – 5 hours to fully charge the robot. There is also an automatic charging feature so the unit automatically returns to its charging dock station. However, note that it doesn’t continue cleaning when charging is complete, you have to start it again. As most advanced robot vacuums, the M80 is supplied with a daily clean scheduling feature.
The Deebot M80 has a suction power of 800 pa so it’s quite powerful but still doesn’t produce too much noise during work having only 56 dB of a noise level. It has a maximum cleaning area of 1600 square feet.
This cleaning device features a smart motion navigation technology which means that it can detect edges and objects on its way (thanks to the inbuilt anti-fall and anti-collision sensors). Plus, there are also protective bumpers.
The Deebot M80 includes 5-tier cleaning systems (sweeping, lifting, vacuuming, moping, and drying), and 3 specialized cleaning modes. The Intense mode increases the rotating speed and suction power. The Spot mode cleans up a small area and is designed for high concentrations of dirt/dust. The Edge mode cleans corners and edges.
The main brush is V-shaped and works great when lifting and separating carpet fibers for deeper cleaning. However, it can’t cope with high-pile carpets. The main brush also cleans itself by removing debris.
There are also dual side brushes. They are designed to capture and pull-in large and small debris cross multiple floor types, along corners and edges. However, they require some maintenance: it’s necessary to remove them and then wipe and clean their slots with a dry cloth after each cleaning session. Thanks to the mop, you can perform wet cleaning. It works best with tile or hardwood floors. It’s also easy to clean and reuse again. It should be noted that the main brush and the mop are detachable.
This model features a high-efficient filter. This means that you can breathe freely while the robot vacuum cleaner works as this filter eliminates airborne contributors associated with allergies and asthma.
You can control and check on the ECOVACS Deebot M80 Pro using the ECOVACS app (Apple/Android compatible) which provides a more detailed cleaning control. Thus, it gives the opportunity to set a cleaning schedule, switch between cleaning modes, check the device’s and cleaning statuses, see its location, battery level, and receive alerts. Bear in mind that the usage of this app requires 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.
The unit will inform you about the errors with a beep sound (the Auto mode button will also be blinking in red): for example, you will hear one beep if the unit stops because of driving wheel malfunction, two beeps if the unit gets into the trouble while working and stops, etc. The full decryption you will find in the user’s manual.
You can also control the vacuum cleaner with the help of the remote control. It has an LCD screen which shows all the necessary info about the cleaning status, 4 dedicated buttons for modes, start/pause button, time scheduling button, network setup button, and others.
Except for the remote control, the package also contains a wet/dry reservoir and also a measuring cup for water. Plus, except for the Deebot M80 Pro manual, there is also a Quick Start Guide.
Design
The ECOVACS Deebot M80 Pro robot vacuum cleaner has a standard round shape and goes in a black’n’gray finish. It’s made of plastic. The top plate is scratch-resistant and looks like glass. You will not find the control buttons on the device except for one Auto mode button which is located on the top cover along with the Wi-Fi indicator light.
The dustbin is located on the top which is much more convenient as it prevents accidental spillage when you empty it. Besides, it’s water-resistant so you can wash it without troubles.
On the back of the cleaning helper, you will find two universal wheels and one driving wheel.
Conclusion
So, finishing this ECOVACS Deebot M80 Pro review, I would like to highlight that this is one of the most inexpensive robot vacuums on the market with simple, minimalist design and functionality. This way, it can work great as your first robot vacuum cleaner ever. You will get 4 the most necessary cleaning modes which is pretty much enough for usual cleaning. It’s possible to control it only remotely (via app, voice assistant, or remote control).
Thanks to the vacuum and mop combination, this model can perform 2 types of cleaning: vacuum and wet. It has a large dustbin so it’s not necessary to empty it after some cleaning sessions. It also has the ability to navigate around obstacles and identify the edges thanks to the sensors.
You should keep an eye on it because it can’t work with any kind of carpet and its wheels can go off because of the tangled hair.
