Roborock S8 vs Ecovacs Deebot X2: Roborock wins for mixed flooring reliability

The Roborock S8 handles carpet-to-hardwood transitions without confusion, while the Deebot X2 can be twitchy on those changes. The S8’s LiDAR navigation and object avoidance are more dependable for large homes with rugs and cables, and its vibrating mop leaves fewer streaks on tile. The X2’s square shape cleans corners better and has longer battery life, but the Roborock’s auto-empty dock and cleaner multi-map management make it the smarter choice unless you prioritize edge cleaning.
