Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo T8+ Vacuum & Mopping Robot Review Demo & Maintenance Tips - T8 Plus

Here is a review and demonstration of Ecovacs high-end Deebot Ozmo T8+ robot vacuum. This model is currently a Best Buy exclusive. This robot can vacuum and mop floors, has good navigation, an excellent software app, and a self-emptying charging dock. The robot itself is a slight step down in tech from the more expensive Ozmo T8 AIVI.

I tested the robot on various surfaces, and in all its cleaning modes. The robot is impressively loaded with modern tech, but has some drawbacks.

My house was not cleaned for about three weeks. Left it on purpose until this little guy arrives. Honestly, I was speechless when I saw how much and well he cleaned. So big thumbs up

I own a t8+ since Christmas. I too noticed the lack of wetness of the mopping. I troubleshot it down to the small black dot on the top right side of the tank that looks like a screw, but is actually a breathing hole for the tank to let air into the tank as water is pumped out. I took a threading needle and opened up the 4 tiny holes on the black dot...now the mopping pad gets plenty of water the way it should. I agree on wishing it had more suction, but I've tried two other brands of robots with supposed higher suction...2700pa and 4000pa, and the t8 holds its own and am very satisfied because of its more gentle and smart navigation, compared to other harder bumping robots. The app is better and easier to use than the proscenic m7 and Veavon V8 robots.

Thank you for your Honest review.
I just purchased my T8 with Auto empty Attachment.
I Initially had issues with the Bin not emptying Automatically due to having the robots bin to full.
To work around this, I divided the rooms into sections then scheduled each area separately. This allowed for multiple trips to the empty station.

Empties now without any issues.

Really honest and accurate review. Had mine since December 2021 and had the same experience.

my troubleshooting is i put it x2 passing in the app to have a perfect cleaning if im not satisfied little Dusty buddy will do a double shift lol!
For the wetness i pre water the pad at the same time that i put some soap and put it on and it makes a perfect job afterwards with the max wetness.
Also, i live in a basement appartement so somehow lots of moss type dust so it takes a little more maintenance to empty the bin despite the self emptying.

I never cleaned it like he did in terms of maintenance and dind't have a different experience i called my T8 Dusty for a reason, he is a Dusty little boy who does his job properly !

I dont regret my purchase at all, best one in the market in terms of prices and features. Never had him eat a cord or whatver!

I just bought T8 aivi+ which came with the Ozmo Pro mopping attachment plus additional 3 bags (total 5) for the for the dirt bin and 11
disposable mop clothes (can be reused for at least for over 4000 square feet after wash it.) for the Ozmo pro a couple of days ago with the price around $628 in Taiwan. The Ozmo pro mopping did the mopping job way much better than the original mopping attachment.

Try spraying your mop head with water before you start &/or spritz spotty areas with water to soften them before starting.

[TaylorMMontgomery]

Can comfirm - it does not get wet enough. Soak the mop pad before you put it on and wring it out. Seems to help!

I got gifted one as my “ welcome to your new home” type thing and in my opinion this thing rocks. It might get confused and run in circles sometimes. But it has picked up so much dust and dirt off my carpets. And I was surprised that it was really quiet

Using vacuums to clean vacuums. The future is really here 😂

GREAT REVIEW! My Ecovacs T8+ does a good job cleaning but it's navigation tends to fall short, it does not do well when encountering the corners of throw rugs and goes into a tizzy (runs in circles), the software is definitely on the poor side, and their technical support is the worse. It is almost impossible to divide rooms more than once unless you divide the room at an angle. Go figure. In addition, the robot steers clear of shiny surfaces such as stainless steel appliances which you pointed out. The 'drop off sensors' become confused when encountering geometric patterns on throw rugs and the robot runs around in circles. I got around this problem by blinding the sensors with masking tape. Ecovacs does not allow you to turn the 'drop sensors' off. I guess that they believe that everyone has a two story house. Lastly, the Deebot Pro Mopping System does not put out enough water and leaves the middle of the cleaning pad dry along with the floor no matter what water flow level you set it to. I returned mine. Not worth $100. When I submitted a review on the Ecovacs site, they refused to publish it. The following is their response. "Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website guidelines. Thanks for sharing, and we hope to publish next time! Submit something new." One of their "guidelines" is to not criticize Ecovacs technical support. Ecovacs does not accept any fair or honest criticism.

Thank you so much for your honest review!! This is the most transparent review I ever seen!!

[dattran]

I got it on Black Friday deals too, today I just ordered mopping pro and hoping will work great

[Maxxmentum]

I really like your view thank you. now I understand why mine won't edge as well because that setting helpful. FYI It says in the instructions to use purified water probably to stop calcium buildup really depends on your region.

I’m disappointed this didn’t preform a little better. I really thought it would do better. I used to have 5 Neato bots and absolutely loved them. I’ve sold them now though because I enjoy manually vacuum too much and I felt cheated haha. Seems like this isn’t a robot that will unseat iRobot and their clean base offerings. Now if only Neato would wake up and make a self emptying option as well. Their 2021 lineup looks to be just more of the same from them. Great video!!

[Deedz_Indeed]

Do you think it's worth buying now?
Where I live it's 475USD.

It probably would have cleaned the kitchen better if you dialed down the speed a bit. I noticed it was all the way up. I have all hardwood floors and I keep it on the low setting and it seems to not knock stuff around as much.

[kymbloffwitch]

I returned this machine as it was scratching my wooden floors. The front wheel is the issue. I also found the auto emptying need 4 attempts to get rid of debris. Otherwise I thought it did a good job, but the floor scratching was a big NO NO!

[richardsmith]

I've noticed my Roomba 960 is better at surface debris and my hoover upright is better at deeper debris. Having four dogs using the Roomba and running it twice a day let's me use the upright once a week instead of every other day.

[MrSameralhamwi]

Please, I would like your advice between two types to buy one of them

The first is N10+

The second is ozmo T8+

[delphicdescant]

Did you try running it on high suction? I'm wondering if it would do better just always using the highest setting (and slowest speed). If you still have it, I'd love to hear more.
