Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms within a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum is said to be able to clean all floor types, this implies that the robot vacuum is capable to effectively clean most flooring materials without much significant issues.
Shark AV2501S aslo cleans all floor types, which implies that it too is built to be adaptable, providing best cleaning performance on either hard floors or carpets found in most homes. The vacuum's ability to create a digital map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the desired space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for several purposes, for example the Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. The Shark AV2501S also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation involves how the robot vacuum moves around the cleaning area. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out areas to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't.
Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's way, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Shark AV2501S has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni supports this feature.
