CONCLUSION

   The DEEBOT T9 represents the pinnacle of modern engineering (only second to the T9 AIVI – review soon) by ECOVACS and so it delivers on everything from near-excellent 3D mapping and obstacle avoidance to lower than expected noise levels and impressive battery life. As a matter of fact, the DEEBOT T9 is the very first robot vacuum to make me doubt my testing methodology so i spend 3 extra days testing its various suction modes to verify my results, battery life is just that impressive (and much longer than stated by ECOVACS themselves). Of course, build quality is also almost excellent and the same goes for the dual bin/tank design which allows the DEEBOT T9 to vacuum and mop by using both its bin and tank at the same time. In terms of vacuuming and mopping i had no complaints from the DEEBOT T9. Now i can’t say that i noticed a difference when it comes to vacuuming (compared to other high-end models) but in terms of mopping you can easily tell which robot vacuum does a better job.

   The DEEBOT T9 Robot Vacuum by ECOVACS currently retails for 699Euros inside the EU (directly from ECOVACS), a price tag which may indeed be somewhat high but quite well justified for everything you’re getting in return (and when compared to other models). Unfortunately, availability for some strange reason doesn’t seem to be that great, not only on the other side of the Atlantic but even in the UK. So, this is something i truly hope ECOVACS can resolve soon since the DEEBOT T9 (and i also hope the same for the DEEBOT T9 AIVI) is a great product. Optimal cleaning performance, excellent build quality, exceptionally long battery life, relatively low noise levels and a plethora of useful features make the DEEBOT T9 one of the top robot vacuum models in the market today and for that it gets the Platinum Award.
