What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

DEEBOT X8 Pro Omni
across 5 reviews
4.0/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • High suction power with a ZeroTangle brush that resists hair tangles and picks up embedded pet hair effectively
  • Roller mop continuously self-cleans during operation and can handle wet spills, leaving minimal water residue behind
  • True Edge 2.0 extends both the roller mop and side brush for better edge and corner coverage
Reviewers push back
  • Obstacle avoidance is inconsistent — handles cables and small objects well but bumps chair legs and displaces items like slippers
  • Mop performance on dried or stubborn stains is slightly below average compared to spinning-pad competitors
  • Robot is about half an inch taller than typical models, limiting clearance under some furniture
A strong-performing robot vacuum and mop with exceptional suction, a genuinely useful self-cleaning roller mop, and efficient navigation, held back by occasional reliability quirks, obstacle avoidance inconsistencies, and a slightly taller-than-average profile.
— best for: People with mixed hard-floor and carpet homes who want hands-free vacuuming and mopping, especially those with pets or hair-shedding concerns, and smart-home users who want Matter and app-based control.

mixed
Reviewers praise
  • The all-in-one dock automatically empties the dustbin, refills and washes the mop pad, and dries it, making the system nearly hands-free over extended periods.
  • VibraRise 2.0 mopping module with dual vibrating elements delivers noticeably better stain and dried-spill removal compared to the previous generation.
  • Mop pad lifts clear of carpet, allowing combined vacuuming and mopping of mixed-floor homes in a single run without wetting rugs.
Reviewers push back
  • Stretched or loose wires remain a consistent weak point — the robot frequently tangles its side brush or suction rolls on them regardless of sensor setup.
  • Removal of the RGB camera eliminates the remote home-monitoring function present on the previous generation, and at least one reviewer found obstacle avoidance slightly worse as a result.
  • Carpet deep-cleaning suction and airflow tested lower than expected for the stated power rating, with mixed results in embedded-debris tests across reviewers.
A highly capable robot vacuum and mop with an exceptional all-in-one dock, strong mopping performance, and solid navigation, held back by inconsistent obstacle avoidance on wires and a dual-brush system that delivers less carpet deep-cleaning improvement than expected.
— best for: Owners of mixed hard-floor and carpeted homes who want a near-autonomous cleaning routine with minimal manual emptying, refilling, or mop maintenance.

Where reviewers split on DEEBOT X8 Pro Omni: Obstacle avoidance divides reviewers: one found it aggressively plowed through objects, while others found it handled cables, pet bowls, and small items well On S8 Pro Ultra: Obstacle avoidance quality relative to the prior generation divides reviewers: one found it worse (more cord tangles), while another's standardized tests scored it equal to or slightly better than before.

This is my first time using a vacuum and mop combo robot, and honestly, it’s exceeded my expectations. I have a mix of rugs, carpets, and hard floors at home, and it handles all of them really well. The cleaning coverage is thorough that I haven’t noticed any missed spots or dead corners. My favorite is the automatic mop drying that it helps prevent odors and keeps the cloth fresh after each use. KZ · Target

The only vacuum cleaner with a brain, and the only robot vacuum cleaner that actually does what it was designed to do to do. We bought and returned the other robot vacuum cleaner because they just zip in every direction, stupid and no why to know for sure everything was cleaned. Not only does RoboRock Vacuums clean in straight uniform lines they show you in the app. Pets? we have 3 dogs, they all RRien07 · us.roborock.com
