Welcome to our Ecovacs Deebot T10 Omni review! The robot vacuum and mop is a new premium robot vacuum from Ecovacs that’s been a leader and key innovator in the robot vacuum world for years. We bought one and put it through all kinds of evaluations over a few weeks, and in this review, we’ll go over all the pros and cons.
- Great on carpet and hard flooring
- Easy maintenance with Omni Station
- Obstacle avoidance
- Lacks onboard water tank
- Mopping pads don’t lift for carpet
About the Ecovacs Deebot T10 Omni
The Deebot T10 Omni is one of Ecovacs’ most advanced robot vacuum systems. However, it seems that they designed the T10 to be a slightly cheaper version of their flagship robot, the Deebot X1 Omni. The T10 and the X1 have most of the same advanced features, and the differences that they do have, which we will discuss as we progress, are relatively minor.
In many ways, the model hierarchy between the T10 Omni and X1 Omni is like that of the Roborock Q7 Max+ (or even more so the upcoming Q Revo) and S8 Pro Ultra. The more reasonably priced robots have an impressive list of features that used to be reserved for flagship robot vacuums.

…if you like the idea of an automated floor cleaning system that is way above average with its cleaning ability and power specs, with almost every extra feature you could ask for, the T10 is a solid choice.
Ecovacs T10 Omni Review: What we like
Cleaning performance
One major pro of the T10 was its performance in just about every way we evaluated it. It excelled over the average robot vacuum, including in its most basic job of sweeping debris from the surfaces of hard floors and carpets. Its two side brushes and well-designed brush roll worked well together, and it was nearly perfect with debris pickup on both surface types, even in its standard power setting.
Deep carpet cleaning and crevice pickup
The T10 also had a ton of power. We evaluated its suction and airflow and found them to be massively above average in both cases, and that power showed up where it counts. With the crevice pickup evaluation, it achieved one of the best scores we’ve seen yet. Plus, with the carpet deep clean assessment, where we see how good it is at picking up deeply embedded dirt in carpets, the T10 was again quite a bit above average.

Mopping
Another pro is that its dual brush system for mopping was very effective. We evaluated it with dried-on stains as well as with wet stains in various contexts, and even though it doesn’t have an internal mop tank but instead needs to return to its dock periodically to moisten its pads (as we’ll mention in the con section), we didn’t notice any significant differences with it and the X1’s mopping performance.
Omni Station
Another set of pros revolves around its innovative Omni station, which not only empties the robot’s dustbin when it returns to its dock to recharge but also automatically washes and dries its mop pads. So there’s very little for you to do besides occasional maintenance, and it’s about as close to fully automated floor care as you could want.
LiDAR navigation and fast mapping
Yet another pro is its cutting-edge navigation system. The T10 uses LiDAR on the top for its mapping and basic navigation. It also has fast mapping; for example, it was able to map out our test home’s floor plan in as little as eight minutes.
In our navigation evaluation, where we give it several runs on a fixed floor plan, the T10 averaged 8.2 square feet per minute, which is quite a bit faster than the average for premium robot vacuums, which we currently have at 7.4.
Battery Efficiency
The Ecovacs T10 Omni’s battery efficiency was also above average for premium robot vacuums in our evaluations. We measured an average of 1.8 minutes per battery percentage point lost, where the average is 1.6. All of that adds up to a theoretical average of 1,486 square feet per charge, which would be one of the best battery life numbers in the industry.
Obstacle Avoidance
Another advantage is the T10’s obstacle avoidance sensors. It has a redesigned obstacle avoidance sensor suite compared to the previous X1.
For example, the T10 does not have the lasers on the sides of the camera like the X1. There are also some minor changes that were probably intended to keep the cost down on the T10. These changes, theoretically speaking, should make the T10 less accurate than the X1 at obstacle avoidance.
However, in our obstacle avoidance evaluations, we found that there wasn’t much of a difference between the T10 and X1. For example, they both scored the same nine out of a possible 12, which is, so far, the highest score we’ve seen with any of these new AI obstacle avoidance systems.

Software and app
There are also a lot of pros related to its software. It has virtual barriers, 3D mapping, multi-level mapping, a best-in-class virtual assistant, live home monitoring, and all the scheduling and cleaning-related features you could want, like room selection, zone cleaning, and a lot more.
Top Robot Vacuums
What could be improved?
It can’t all be good stuff, though, so let’s move on to the cons.
Non-lifting mopping pads
One of the disappointments we had with the T10 was that its mopping pads don’t lift up automatically when they encounter carpet. But it’s really hard to call this a con, though, since it isn’t a feature on the X1 either. However, it’s becoming more popular on these super-premium robot vacuums, and it’s not all that clear from the promo material that it doesn’t have it. So we thought we would mention it.
The T10 does automatically detect carpets, though. So, when you have the mopping pads attached, it will vacuum and mop the hard floors at the same time, but avoid carpets and rugs automatically so they don’t get wet.
Lacks onboard water tank
Another con is that the T10 does not have an internal mop tank, whereas the previous X1 did. So, to moisten its pads for mopping, it needs to periodically return to the dock. We didn’t notice that much of a difference in the mopping evaluations we did, but it does mean you can’t adjust the water flow. We can see this being less effective where large amounts of water are needed.
Omni Station size
Another con is that, like the X1, the Omni station on the T10 is very big. It’s the largest robot vacuum system by volume we’ve ever evaluated, so you probably should have an idea of where you want to keep it in your house.
Ecovacs T10 Omni Review: conclusion and recommendation
All in all, the Ecovacs Deebot T10 Omni is one of the best robot vacuum systems in the world. It is a bit pricey. But, if you like the idea of an automated floor cleaning system that is way above average with its cleaning ability and power specs, with almost every extra feature you could ask for, the T10 is a solid choice.
