Certain models use more power to maneuver over thick carpets than others, which could cause battery drain quickly.

Other factors, such as the condition of the robot's equipment and the frequency at which they need to be maintained, could also affect its performance. A tangled side-brush could stop the robot vacuums best from doing its job, and the presence of a dirty or full filter can cause it to overheat or even shut off from the internet.

ECOVACS' robots have clever features that reduce the burden on its components and increase their life span. Self-emptying stations reduce the risk of overflows and ZeroTangle eliminates tangles in brushes. These technologies, when combined with intelligent sensors and smart mapping, let the ECOVACS robot to work more efficiently.

All ECOVACS robots come with an auto-refill mode which automatically refills the water tank and wiper blades if they're empty and also feature automatic vacuum and mop docking to conserve time and energy. They can be programmed to return to dock after finishing a cleaning session or enter sleep mode after 10 minutes of inactivity.
