Ecovacs deebot 605 review in Spanish (full analysis)

ECOVACS DEEBOT 605 is the new robot vacuum cleaner that belongs to its 600 series, in which we have very complete robots and with the latest news in terms of connectivity and interaction via app with Android and iOS. This 605 version, in addition to vacuuming, also has a scrubbing function thanks to a tank-shaped complement with water. If you are looking for a cheap and good quality robot vacuum cleaner, ECOVACS is a great option.

We already had the opportunity to test the DEEBOT N79S and it gave us very good results, so we were looking forward to this new version 605, smarter and more complete. Let's see what it is capable of.

We thank ECOVACS Robotics for continuing to trust us to transfer their product to us and to carry out this analysis.

Technical characteristics ECOVACS DEEBOT 605

Unboxing and accessories

The storage system of this ECOVACS Deebot 605 is maintained compared to previous models, consisting of a double thick cardboard box. The first of them will be of neutral cardboard and will be in charge of protecting the product from stronger blows during its transfer. The second is the box that carries all the accessories and the product inside.

The external design consists of a white background with the photograph of the robot vacuum cleaner and its model. In the back we have more information about the product informing us of the main functions and news of this 605 and that we will see during this analysis.

We open the box and we have a lot of accessories perfectly distributed in the box with the help of a cardboard mold. So in total we will have the following elements:

• Robot vacuum cleaner ECOVACS Deebot 605 Remote control with two batteries included (AAA) Charging base and power adapter Four side brushes Brush to clean the robot A second tank for the scrubbing function with two units of cloth Replacement dust filter set Manual instructions in several languages, includes Spanish

We highlight the novelty of the scrubbing tank as an extra accessory to give our robot even more functionality if possible. Brush replacements are also greatly appreciated. Therefore, really complete pack of this ECOVACS Deebot 605.

External design and features

For those who do not know ECOVACS Robotics, it is a Chinese brand of vacuum robots that was established a while ago, with products much cheaper than other manufacturers such as the famous iRobot Roomba. Currently even large stores such as El Corte Ingles market with their products, due to their great value for money.

When a manufacturer wants to make a product that fits in every home in terms of design and decoration, the white color is the star. And exactly like this we find this ECOVACS Deebot 605, a robot with a most traditional appearance in a flat and round configuration with dimensions of 33 cm in diameter and a height or thickness of 7.9 cm. In this way the robot reaches a weight of 3.3 kg, which is not excessive at all.

Analyzing the outer area, the PVC plastic finishes predominate and we do not see any manufacturing defect or any blow that has been received during transport, so the packaging works perfectly. In the upper area we only find a button to start the equipment, a Wi-Fi connection indicator and another to indicate the working mode.

In the front area we have a large bumper that equips several infrared proximity sensors to detect objects that are approaching the robot while it does its work. These sensors are behind a dark PVC casing that is also protected by various rubber bands to prevent damage to our home furniture in collisions. At the same time we have a damping system on this front so as not to damage the equipment itself.

In the rear area we have access to the dust collection tank, which has a capacity of 520 ml, significantly larger than other models. To remove this tank we will only have to press down on the coupling button to remove it without using force.

Also in this side area of ECOVACS Deebot 605 we can find a switch type button to activate the general on and off of the equipment. In this case, we do not have a power connector on the robot itself, so charging must always be done from its base.

Let's take a closer look at this dust tank once it is removed from the robot. In the front area we have an opening that serves for the admission of dust and its storage. When we open this tank in half, we will find three types of filters to insulate the dirt inside, first of all, we will have a plastic mesh filter that can be cleaned with water. Then in an upper and also removable area, we will have another high efficiency particle filter along with a small sponge filter. Keep in mind that this paper filter will lose its effectiveness if we wash it with water with a liquid.

The interesting thing about this equipment is that in addition to the dust tank, we will have another one with the same capacity to provide the scrubbing function, or rather mop for our home. The installation mode will be the same as the previous one, but in this case what we will have is a tank to fill it with water through its lower hole. In the area of ​​contact with the ground, we will have a perfectly washable fiber cloth that will be impregnated with water to collect all possible dirt.

We will also have another spare cloth in the accessory pack to exchange it when necessary. As we can guess, we will have no problem applying cleaning products to the tank water, such as ammonia-based disinfectants.

The lower part will of course be the most important part of this ECOVACS Deebot 605, since we have here all the elements that make up the robot cleaning system. To start we have the two adapters to install the side brushes that characterize these teams, just by placing and pushing them they will be fixed. The cleaning set is completed with a roller-type brush that will take care of collecting the dirt sent by the side brushes. This roller will be removable, interchangeable and can also be perfectly cleaned.

On the other hand, we have the two main soft rubber wheels that grip the ground perfectly, another front wheel to provide the correct orientation of the device. Spread over the outer edges, we have three infrared sensors to detect level changes such as steps, thus preventing it from falling. Finally we will have the two metal contacts to connect the charging base to the robot.

The charging base consists of an adapter with plug for the general line of our home at 230V and a base with lower contacts where the robot will automatically position itself when it finishes its work to recharge. This charge lasts a total of 4 hours, and the robot's working time is around 110 minutes, which is not bad.

Commissioning and functions

To start using our ECOVACS Deebot 605 we will only have to place the base with its charger on the ground, if possible in an area free of objects and with the front completely clear so that the robot's return to and from it is not a torture.

Then we must place the robot on this base with the correct orientation and making sure that the connectors are connected to the base, which will be indicated by a strong beep. It is time to place the side switch to the "ON" position to get the equipment ready for use. To start cleaning, press either the button in the upper area of ​​the robot or the "play" button on the remote control.

With the control that it incorporates, we can also select between three cleaning modes depending on our needs, this is perfectly explained in the instructions. The functions can be extended thanks to the mobile app.

• Random cleaning mode: which will be optimized for carpet cleaning and will make a random walk through the cleaning surface. In this regard we also have a turbo mode to increase the vacuum power and performance of the robot, especially designed for difficult surfaces such as carpets. Scheduled cleaning pattern mode: with the button that symbolizes a meandering line, we can activate the function that will be the most recommended in almost all cases. The robot will make passes from one end to another type of printer to completely clean the entire floor. Localized Cleaning Mode: The ECOVACS Deebot 605 will clean in a spiral pattern with the maximum power setting for a space-delimited area. Corner cleaning mode (with mobile app): with this selected mode, the robot will scan the entire periphery of the room looking for dirt located in the corners of the floor.

In addition, we will have a button that when pressed, the robot will immediately return to its charging station. With the outer circle of the remote, we can move the robot in a personalized way as if it were a remote control car. We must bear in mind that to change the working mode we will have to finish the cleaning process, or return the robot to the base, only in this way the cleaning mode will change.

This robot, like other models of the brand, has voice control and integration with other smart home devices through Amazon Alexa. A very interesting function for home automation and if we know perfect English.

User experience

As it could not be otherwise, we have had this new companion at home to test all its functions and to see what its limitations and benefits are.

And the first thing we can highlight is that cleaning does it a thousand wonders, both the side brushes and the main brush collect absolutely everything that is in their path, even on rustic floors with 0.5 cm slits between slabs (where we have tried it). We have thrown everything from flour to sugar, it has not left a grain in its path, so, in this aspect, impeccable.

The pattern cleaning mode gives excellent results, leaving almost no space uncleaned. The moment he encounters an obstacle, he surrounds it and then follows the line that led to his encounter, and we must say that he follows it quite accurately. Where he has had more problems is in rooms with enough furniture and corners, for example, entering corners with enough nooks and crannies, it has cost him quite a bit to get out of them, so we must have him more or less guarded and make his work a little easier, saving on battery and increasing efficiency.

The mechanism to return home is also sometimes complicated when the robot is in rooms other than where the base is, although it is true that in the end it returns yes or yes, it could take some time to do it depending on the obstacles that are find your way. As for noise, with 65 dB at maximum power, we will have a fairly quiet device and in the end we will not even notice its presence.

Step detection makes it perfect, at least on the days we have tried it, we have not had to regret material damage. Likewise, the front sensors detect objects very well and the robot's movement slows down when it comes close to one of them, so that the collision is smooth. The only thing we will have to regret is the monumental anger of the dog when seeing that contraption roam freely around the house.

Nor can we forget the scrub mode, for him, we will not have to do anything special in the ECOVACS DEEBOT 605, just put the water tank and the mop.

ECOVACS HOME application

With the application that we will obtain maximum compatibility it will be that of ECOVACS Home, since that is where this model is available. We will only have to connect to the robot's Wi-Fi so that after a few seconds it detects it and we can interact with it.

Next we will have our ECOVACS DEEBOT 605 added to the list of robots and we will be able to connect its control and configuration.

We highly recommend using this application because we will have much more programming options available than with the remote. For example, we can configure the different cleaning modes that we already saw in the previous section, we can also control its position and tell it to go home.

With the application we will be able to see possible error messages from the device, know the state of the brushes and the filter of our robot, and most interestingly, the programming of schedules and days for cleaning our home.

Final words and conclusion about ECOVACS DEEBOT 605 ECOVACS DEEBOT 605

If there is something we should highlight about this ECOVACS DEEBOT 605 it is its excellent cleaning capacity, with outstanding results, and absorbing everything in its path, even on floors with a rustic finish. The cleaning pattern has left no areas uncleaned at virtually no time.

As for scrubbing mode, it also gives very good results, with two interchangeable mops, which due to their small extension do fill quickly with dirt on floors that are neglected. In any case, it is a very welcome and useful function for many cases in which we want to give a more in-depth look at the ground. The high power function for carpets is also very positive.

We recommend you the best robot vacuum cleaner on the market

The fact of being able to manage it through a mobile application is, today, something basic, and in this case we have very complete control, even with the possibility of programming.

As for the considerations that we must make, it is that it still has some limitations regarding the orientation and cleaning of multiple rooms and the management in difficult holes. Also sometimes it costs a lot to return to its base, especially if it is in adjacent rooms, they are the limitations of a mid-range product without intelligent navigation like the OZMO 930 model.

This ECOVACS DEEBOT 605 will be available on the market for an approximate price of about 250 to 300 euros, which is not expensive at all compared to other options. Highly recommended for small floors with not too many nooks or things in between.
