Our Verdict
Like its predecessors, the Deebot T30 Professional Omni impressed us. With its suction energy elevated to 11,000Pa and the brand new extendable mop arm, it ensures good cleansing outcomes all spherical and doesn’t let pet hair or obstacles cease it from doing its job.
The brand new design can be advantageous. The contemporary and soiled water tanks at the moment are situated on the bottom station and will be simply eliminated. They’re additionally flatter and due to this fact match higher below a faucet.

Ecovacs set the bar excessive with final 12 months’s Deebot T20 Omni and Deebot X2 Omni fashions. The brand new mannequin comes with even higher expertise and efficiency in addition to a modified design.
Word: There’s additionally the T30 Omni mannequin with out the “Professional” within the title. It’s barely cheaper and doesn’t have the Yiko voice management and clever mud detection. The mannequin can be solely out there in black. The opposite options are an identical. That is the mannequin out there within the UK, which we’ve supplied hyperlinks to on this article.
Design & Construct
As you’d count on, the Deebot T30 Professional Omni additionally is available in a big package deal, which at 44 × 47 × 76cm is greater than the boot of many small automobiles. The mixture of docking station and robotic vacuum weighs in at round 18kg.

In comparison with its predecessor, the T20 Professional Omni, the bottom station is barely extra compact and it’s additionally smaller than the X2 Omni, measuring 43 × 40 × 48, in comparison with 43 × 45 × 58cm (W×D×H respectively).
Each the station and the robotic in our evaluation machine got here in a white and silver plastic housing, though in some nations it’s additionally out there in pink.
At first look, the equipped parts make a high-quality impression after unpacking and earlier than meeting.

Arrange is a straightforward course of: the bottom station is assembled from 4 components and related to the ability provide. The robotic is able to go inside a couple of minutes with the pre-assembled mops and the cleansing brush we connected. We didn’t even want to take a look at the printed working directions.

There are two necessary issues to think about when selecting the set up location: an influence connection is required and the bottom station have to be simply accessible from above in order that the 2 water tanks for contemporary and soiled water will be eliminated. Whereas the water tank is similar dimension as its predecessor at 4L, the soiled water tank solely holds 3.5 litres, 500ml much less.
App Options
The set-up works within the traditional means for Ecovacs gadgets: the Deebot T30 Professional Omni is added as a brand new machine within the Ecovacs app utilizing the QR code that may be discovered below the ornamental plate on the robotic.
Some extra capabilities can be utilized when the machine is related to an present Wi-Fi community. These embrace, for instance, entry to the robotic from wherever by way of the Ecovacs cloud or voice management utilizing Yiko, Alexa or Google Assistant. Throughout setup, we obtained a firmware replace to model 1.55.0. New updates may also be put in mechanically when they’re out there – between 00:00 and 6:00am.
The default settings within the app are usable. You may change them at any time. The app itself is simple to grasp and largely intuitive to make use of. First, you need to perform the mapping. The Deebot T30 Omni Professional does this mechanically. It scans the rooms and its TrueMapping 2.0 laser system detects partitions, edges and obstacles.

The app means that you can view the maps in 2D or 3D. The names of the rooms can be utilized to set off cleansing just by voice command.
The app is nicely designed, however detailed. You must take a while to discover the settings and customise the robotic to your personal atmosphere. For instance, you’ll be able to title rooms on the map, outline restricted zones and mark objects. You obtain standing messages in your smartphone or by way of voice output so as to react instantly.

To begin cleansing on the contact of a finger, you’ll be able to choose the specified cleansing programme as a favorite for fast entry. Then, for instance, you can begin cleansing the kitchen simply earlier than you permit the home.
Efficiency & Options
The Deebot T30 Professional Omni has three management buttons on the highest in entrance of the laser tower. You should utilize the House button to ship the robotic again to its base station. With the Spot Clear button, you can also make the T30 Professional Omni clear a small space precisely the place you may have positioned it. There’s additionally an on/off change.
The Ecovacs robotic will get to work with a loud noise. In response to the producer, it may attain as much as 65 decibels – that’s as a lot as a traditional vacuum or a hair dryer. However you don’t should cowl your ears on a regular basis. The Deebot T30 Professional Omni is at its loudest when it’s cleansing and drying the mops.
The robotic doesn’t have its personal water tank, which is why it has to return to the station each jiffy. There, the mops are cleaned and moistened with water heated to 70°C (T20: 55°C). This removes cussed grime. This may be clearly seen from the residue within the base station’s soiled water tank.

A small downside: the T30 Professional Omni doesn’t have a detergent additive or a separate tank for one, as is the case with the Dreame L20 Extremely. You must dose a cleansing answer your self and add it to the contemporary water.
What was used for the primary time on the X2 Omni and is more and more turning into commonplace throughout rivals is the extendable mopping arm on one facet of the T30 Professional Omni. This allows higher cleansing outcomes and will get nearer to edges.
Ecovacs depends on TruEdge, an revolutionary operate of the Deebot T30 Professional Omni. The robotic travels a further path alongside the sides when mopping, guaranteeing higher cleansing of corners and edges which might be typically troublesome to achieve.

Utilizing a laser and a digital camera to recognise obstacles, it measures the space with LIDAR. The navigation labored nicely in our check.
On tiled flooring, the T30 Professional Omni does a great job of vacuuming and mopping. Grime, mud and the white hair from Pointer-Dalmatian combine Eddy land within the robotic’s assortment bin. It’s a little small, so it must be emptied within the base station fairly often.
The Deebot T30 Professional Omni can carry its mops to take away grime from carpets. This can be a actual problem for a lot of robotic vacuums. The Ecovacs machine stops mopping when a carpet is detected and will increase the suction energy.
Like its predecessors and competitor merchandise, the robotic can’t fairly make it over a door threshold in our residence that’s round 2.5cm excessive – others of 1.5cm aren’t any downside. The Deebot T30 Omni Professional recognises a downward staircase and brakes in good time.
Velocity is much less necessary, because the vacuum-mopping robotic can clear the house throughout the day when no person is round. It took the T30 Professional Omni slightly below 55 minutes to scrub our 34 sq. metres of tiled flooring.
As quickly because the robotic has completed its work, the suction station takes care of the cleansing. The robotic docks onto the station, the place its mud container is emptied, the mops are washed with sizzling water (70°C) after which dried with sizzling air. This prevents unhealthy odours and ensures optimum hygiene.
Worth & Availability
When you’re within the UK, you should buy the T30 Professional Omni from Amazon, the place it’s at present priced at £1,006. That is clearly loads to spend nevertheless it’s comfortably lower than the Dyson 360 Vis Nav, which has a much more restricted function set.
For our cash, Ecovacs makes a few of the greatest high-end robotic vacuums out there. If the T30 Professional Omni is inside finances, you’re unlikely to be upset. Nonetheless, if you happen to’re on the lookout for the same function set for a lower cost, take a look at our evaluation of the wonderful X10 Professional Omni, which is £200 much less.
There are extra suggestions in any respect value factors in our round-up of one of the best robotic vacuums we’ve examined.
On the time of writing, the T30 Professional Omni just isn’t but out there within the US.
