Ecovacs Deebot T9 Review: Smells Sweet

Last year, I reviewed Ecovacs' Deebot (6/10, WIRED Review). It was an expensive and massive mopping robot vacuum that came with a ton of extra functions that, to be quite honest, didn't make much practical sense. My 8-year-old, for example, is used to her mother occasionally doing strange things around the house. She accepted when her mother was talking to her through that robot vacuum's walkie-talkie, but she didn't exactly like it. That's why, this year, it made more sense for me to try the Deebot T9, which at $800 is the midrange model in Deebot's 2023 line.
