Verdict

Pros & cons

Der ECOVACS Deebot N20 ist ein gründlicher Sauger für Hartboden mit Laser-Navigation und einer Hauptbürste, an der sich keine Haare aufwickeln. Für Tierhalter in aufgeräumten Wohnungen taugt er gut. Der Haken: Kabel und Socken erkennt er nicht, das Wischpad zieht er nur nach und hebt es auf Teppich nicht an. Den kleinen Staubbehälter mit 0,4 l musst du oft von Hand leeren.

Pros

  • Sammelt auf Laminat in Tests fast allen Schmutz ein
  • Keine Haarwicklungen: 18 cm lange Haare verhedderten sich im Test nicht
  • Holte im Test 96 % der Tierhaare aus Teppich
  • LiDAR-Karte nach etwa 5 min, ordentliche Bahnen, 3 Etagenkarten
  • 190 min Laufzeit im Standardmodus, setzt Reinigung nach dem Laden fort
  • Übersichtliche App mit Raumeinstellungen, No-Go-Zonen und Zeitplänen

Cons

  • Keine Kamera-Hinderniserkennung, Kabel und Socken bleiben unerkannt
  • Wischpad hebt sich auf Teppich nicht an und muss abgenommen werden
  • Gezogenes Pad scheitert an angetrockneten Flecken
  • Staubbehälter mit 0,4 l füllt sich schnell
  • Lange Ladezeit von 390 min, schwach in Ecken

Der iRobot Roomba Max 875 ist ein Saug-Wisch-Roboter mit Heißwasser-Station, der auf Teppich kräftig saugt und Schwellen bis 3,5 cm nimmt. Er passt zu dir, wenn du vor allem saugen lässt und Flecken gelegentlich selbst nachwischst. Der Haken: Eingetrocknete Flecken bleiben oft stehen, an Kanten bleiben Streifen, und die App arbeitet noch unzuverlässig. Auf alten Holzdielen oder empfindlichem PVC ist er keine sichere Wahl.

Pros

  • Saugt Vorleger und Kurzflor gründlich dank abgedichteter Saugschürze
  • Überwindet Schwellen bis 3,5 cm, auch steile Badschwellen ohne Rampe
  • Station wäscht die Wischrolle mit 80 °C und trocknet sie warm
  • Passt mit 9,98 cm Bauhöhe unter flache Couchtische
  • Lange Haare wickeln sich dank Haarschneider kaum um die Bürste
  • Im Standardmodus auf Hartboden leise genug für Gespräche daneben

Cons

  • App verschachtelt, ohne frei aufziehbare Zonen und ohne Fahrtrichtung pro Raum
  • Eingetrocknete Flecken bleiben oft auch nach mehreren Wischgängen sichtbar
  • Lässt an Wänden 0,5 bis über 2 cm ungereinigt
  • Erkennt Kabel nicht verlässlich, meidet Flächen zwischen Stuhlbeinen
  • Walze hinterlässt auf alten Holzdielen zu viel Feuchtigkeit
