Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both machines like the mopping when the machine cooperates, but the trust level is very different. Ecovacs DEEBOT X11S PRO Omni owners describe the roller lifting dried pawprints and kitchen grease a spinning pad would smear, and single out the extending TruEdge roller for reaching baseboards other robots leave dusty, while flagging a battery some call small for the tier. iRobot Roomba Max 705 Combo owners who get a good unit praise the accurate LiDAR mapping and a mop that leaves floors pleasantly dry, but the dominant theme in their reviews is reliability: false bin and dirty-water-tank errors, docks that leak, and an app with broken schedules are common enough that several owners returned their unit, some naming a rival brand as the safer alternative.
