Ecovacs Deebot X12 OmniCyclone
The only manufacturer here to publish airflow (22 l/s) and pressure (0.22 bar) instead of a bare Pascal headline, with a bagless station and the best obstacle-avoidance results we saw.

Review
What this product is
Written after the analysis, from the same sources the score is built on: the manufacturer's documentation, available studies and verified owner feedback.
The X12 OmniCyclone suits cluttered homes and buyers who do not want to buy dust bags. Ecovacs publishes an airflow of 22 l/s and suction of up to 0.22 bar, a 4,000 mAh battery charged in 2 h 25 min, a 0.25 L dustbin, a bagless 1.6 L station container, 3.5 L and 2.7 L water tanks, 63 °C drying and a noise level of 64.4 dB. The robot is 353 × 351 × 98 mm.
On obstacles the evidence is strong: The Smart Home Hookup gave it a perfect 6 out of 6 for object avoidance, and Vacuum Wars counted 23 of 24 obstacles avoided, a full pet-hair pickup and no hair tangles. Its overall Vacuum Wars score of 3.77 is sixteenth in the top 20, with carpet cleaning described as only average.
On thresholds it is ordinary: 2.4 cm for a single sill and 4 cm for a double step. No security certificate was named on the page, and the manufacturer page showed no owner reviews; Geizhals listed a 5.0 rating from just three. Ecovacs charged €799, while Geizhals showed 28 offers from €651.79.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Why does Ecovacs quote bar and litres per second instead of Pascals?
The product page gives airflow (22 l/s) and pressure (up to 0.22 bar). Retail listings such as Geizhals convert the pressure to 22,000 Pa. Airflow is the more useful half of the pair, and few rivals publish it.
Does the X12 OmniCyclone use dust bags?
No. The station has a bagless cyclone container of 1.6 L that has to be emptied and cleaned by hand from time to time.
