The Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus in a nutshell
Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus is a reliable robot vacuum cleaner and floor cleaner. In addition to a suction power of 3000 Pa, the Deebot T10 Plus has a powerful mopping function or, alternatively, an air freshener. The charging station with emptying function and its integrated dust container is very practical.
While the Ecovacs Home app with in-app Yiko AI voice control still caused issues on previous Ecovacs models, the software works flawlessly with the Deebot T10 Plus. However, that performance comes at a price. The Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus costs the tidy sum of 999.00 euros.
Unpacking and installation
The Deebot T10 Plus offers efficient cleaning of your four walls thanks to the many setting options in the Ecovacs Home app. You can follow the cleaning process via the live camera image. However, the assembly of the station could be improved.
The highlights of the Deebot T10 Plus:
- Quick and easy installation
- Intuitive and clear application
- Deodorant function
Weak points of the Deebot T10 Plus:
- The station is made up of multiple elements that fit together badly
In addition to the Deebot T10 Plus, the package contains a station with integrated dust container and storage box, two side brushes in different colors, two wipes, an air freshener available in the robot vacuum cleaner and mop, as well as a quick start guide. starter .
Assembly is very simple. All you have to do is remove the protective material from the Deebot T10 Plus, attach the two side brushes, mount the self-emptying station, plug in the power cord and go.
When assembling, we notice that the station consists of two parts that cannot be connected very tightly. This is especially annoying when moving the station. But I hope you don’t do it every day.

Setting up the Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus via the app is done in minutes. In the quick guide you will find a QR code for download; then the app will guide you step by step through the installation process.
Create an account (optionally link it to the Google account), connect to the WLAN network and the Deebot T10 Plus is ready to use, apparently. Indeed, during our test, the installation only worked after several attempts. A QR code on the Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus surface helps to add the device in the Ecovacs Home app.
Once the Deebot T10 Plus has managed to make its way through the app, it’s time to move on to mapping. Thanks to Ecovacs TrueMapping navigation it is possible to map the entire surface of the house with precision. In the Ecovacs Home app you can choose between a 2D and a 3D picture of your own four walls.
Thanks to the 960P HD camera with night light sensor, the Deebot T10 Plus easily recognizes stationary and moving objects, even in the dark. Camera information.

Suction and washing power
In the practical test, the robot vacuum cleaner and mop excelled with excellent suction power on a smooth surface. But performance drops dramatically when you pick up fine particles from carpet.
The highlights of the Deebot T10 Plus:
- Excellent suction power on smooth surfaces
- Flawless voice control with Yiko AI voice assistant
Weak points of the Deebot T10 Plus:
- It completely loses its means in the presence of cables on the ground
- Large loss of power in the presence of fine particles on a carpet
- The battery runs down too quickly when you increase the suction or mopping power
The Deebot T10 Plus requires little attention, as the station has an integrated dust bag and a suction function. As soon as the Deebot T10 Plus has filled the tank, the robot vacuum cleaner and mop will notify you by voice message and return to the station.
The station’s disposable dustbag holds 3.2 litres, so it should last you a few weeks, as long as you don’t have six long-haired greyhounds. However, the automatic emptying is very noisy.

The volume of the sound also increases enormously if you clean the Deebot T10 Plus with increased suction strength and scrubbing intensity. In the NextPit test, the vacuum and broom robot picked up 99% of the scattered oatmeal and 95% of the sand scattered on smooth surfaces.
Thanks to its bilateral brushes, the Deebot T10 Plus reaches even hard-to-reach spots or corners and leaves a perfectly clean floor. In our test rig, the Deebot T10 Plus shows some weaknesses. In our hands-on test, the Deebot T10 Plus only picked up 84% of the sand scattered on the carpet. Its direct competitor, the Roborock Q7 Max + (test) collects 93% for example.
| Test volume (g) | Suction volume (g) | Efficiency (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oatmeal (tile) | |||
| Sand (tile) | |||
| Sand (carpet/carpet) |
On the other hand, the Deebot T10 Plus picks up hair without any problems. However, it is particularly surprising how all the cables disturb the Deebot T10 Plus. During the test, we have to regularly remove the charging cables from the stomach of the Deebot T10 Plus so that it can continue the cleaning process. But hey, at least the robot vacuum requires you to tidy up a bit.

The mop is halftone. The Deebot T10 Plus does not completely remove the slightly dried ketchup that was spilled during the test. Here, the robot vacuum cleaner and sweeper leaves a small trail of dried ketchup and sticky wooden floors, despite vehement scrubbing.
During the cleaning process, the Deebot T10 Plus is incredibly jerky. After completing the cleaning process with the sweeping function, the floor around the sweeping deck of the Deebot T10 Plus is completely wet. Fortunately, the station comes with a generous bottom plate.

Finally, the Deebot T10 Plus has a fairly high energy consumption. After 60 minutes of maximum suction and maximum washing intensity, the robot vacuum cleaner and wiper loses 58% of autonomy. Meanwhile, the Deebot T10 Plus cleans 40m2 of our test area.
The charging process takes 6.5 hours, which is very long. Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus returns to the station by itself when the battery level drops to 15%. However, when Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus is 90% charged, it resumes its work where it left off.
Conclusion
Ecovacs offers with the Deebot T10 Plus a reliable robot vacuum cleaner and floor cleaner. The Deebot T10 Plus cleans smooth surfaces perfectly thanks to its two side brushes and its correct suction power. It also offers an air freshener instead of the cleaning function if desired. The Ecovacs Home app is very easy to use and offers a wide range of setting possibilities.
If you’re looking for a reliable and easy-to-maintain robot vacuum cleaner and mop for mostly smooth surfaces and you value vacuuming more than mopping, then you’ve come to the right place with the Deebot T10 Plus from Ecovacs.
However, you will have to put your wallet in order to buy the Ecovacs Deebot T10 Plus, because the robot vacuum cleaner and floor cleaner still costs 999.00 euros.
