One of the top premium robovacs I tested in 2025 is a whopping 45% off - grab the Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni now for only AU$1,378 Deals Sharmishta Sarkar published Need a robot vacuum that literally does it all? This one's a great choice There are so many robot vacuums on the market nowadays that it can be overwhelming when trying to find one that's best for your specific needs. Even as a reviewer, I struggle to keep up and that's made even more confusing by some robovac makers (including Ecovacs) releasing multiple models in a calendar year at different price points. While it's tempting to go cheap - like opting for the Ecovacs Deebot N20 now down to AU$284 with an additional coupon on Amazon - these budget models may not clean as well as you'd want, especially on carpets. If you have mixed flooring and want a thorough clean, you'll generally need to spend more and the best premium Ecovacs robot vacuum I've reviewed myself is the Deebot X8 Pro Omni. I might have found the Yiko voice assistant a little annoying, but I absolutely couldn't complain about its cleaning performance when I tested it. I did, however, dock marks for its RRP, but it's now down to the lowest Australian price I've seen - available directly from Ecovacs. Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni: was AU$2,499 now AU$1,378 at ECOVACS It might not have the massive suction of more expensive models, but the X8 Pro Omni puts the 18,000Pa it does possess to good use, with carpets typically coming away looking fresh. Based on my testing, this is the best robovac for edge cleaning, whether vacuuming or mopping - and the latter functionality is improved by the use of a roller rather than mop pads. You can even use voice commands to get jobs done and the Ecovacs Home app has evolved into a more streamlined version. I went into my Deebot X8 Pro Omni review with a very sceptical outlook, as I'd just come away being disappointed by a couple of other robovac models. Moreover, I'd already seen other premium competitors with more suction power than 18,000Pa (take a look at my Dreame Aqua10 Ultra review for one with 30,000Pa), so I really wasn't sure how well it would do on a dirty carpet. I couldn't have been happier to be proved wrong - this robovac not only vacuums marvellously well thanks to better interior airflow that sucks up all kinds of dirt, it even takes full advantage of its roller to effectively mop hard floors without any streaks. What I found most impressive about it is its edge cleaning abilities - this robovac isn't scared to get right close to walls and furniture to ensure as much of floor space is cleaned as possible, both while vacuuming and mopping. I didn't have issues with navigation and obstacle avoidance, although I've seen other people complain about that online. The robot never got lost, but it did...
