ECOVACS DEEBOT T80 OMNI Review: Hot Water Floor Washing at 75 Degrees C

Floor Washing, Not Just Mopping

Most robot vacuums that claim to mop are really just dragging a damp cloth across your floor. The ECOVACS DEEBOT T80 OMNI takes a fundamentally different approach with its OZMO Roller mop technology — it actively washes your floors the way you would with a wet mop and bucket, applying consistent water flow and downward pressure to lift grime, not just push it around.

With over 1,000 units sold on Shopee and a 4.8-star rating from 544 reviews, this is clearly resonating with Singapore buyers. During flash sales, the price drops to $999 from $1,719, making it a compelling deal for what is essentially a floor washing machine and robot vacuum in one.

Hot Water Deep Clean

The base station heats water to 75 degrees Celsius to wash the roller mop after each cleaning session, then uses hot air to dry it thoroughly. This two-step sanitation process eliminates bacteria and prevents the musty odour that plagues robots with cold-water-only cleaning. In Singapore’s tropical humidity, where mould and bacteria grow aggressively, hot water sanitisation is not a luxury — it is a necessity.

Vacuum Performance

The T80 OMNI does not compromise on vacuuming either. 18,000Pa suction handles dust, pet hair, and debris across hard floors and carpet effectively. The AI-powered obstacle avoidance recognises common household objects like shoes, cables, and furniture legs, allowing the robot to navigate tight Singapore living spaces without getting stuck.

Base Station Considerations

The all-in-one base station handles self-emptying, hot water washing, and drying — but it does have a larger footprint than simpler docks. Plan for a dedicated spot along a wall, ideally near a power outlet. The trade-off is that the station handles virtually all maintenance for you, so the space it occupies earns its keep.

The Verdict

The ECOVACS DEEBOT T80 OMNI is for anyone who wants genuinely clean floors, not just surface-level maintenance. The OZMO Roller technology delivers real floor washing that you can see and feel, and the 75 degrees C hot water sanitisation keeps everything hygienic in Singapore’s climate. At the flash deal price of $999, it offers exceptional value for a true floor washing robot.
