Current consumer technology has grown in multiple areas, although smartphones have been the spearhead in recent decades. But if there is one type of product that has been able to find its own space, it is home automation, devices that help us manage our home, such as smart vacuum cleaners.
Today we analyze the Ecovacs Deebot N3 Max, a device that has Wifi, laser, voice control and is capable of talking to us. Literally.

One of the largest vacuum cleaners
The design of this vacuum cleaner is very similar to that of the rest of the Ecovacs or other brands’ products. Despite that, there is something that stands out: his size.
It is much larger than other vacuum cleaners we have tested, but it seems that that also makes it have more autonomy, so we have no complaints.
Also striking is the presence in the box of two tanks, one for vacuuming and another for vacuuming but also for scrubbing since this vacuum cleaner has that function.
At the top there is an element that stands out like the periscope of a submarine. That is where the laser is, which we will talk about later.
The rest of the elements are the normal ones in these devices: two brushes that rotate the dust inwards and one in the shape of a cylinder that houses it in the rear tank.
Power and autonomy
The Ecovacs Deebot N3 Max is a vacuum cleaner with three power modes. It has one normal, which is the one we have used the most, another one of greater power, in case there is a lot of dirt and another silent It allows vacuuming but is more designed for scrubbing.
As expected, the three of them hear each other, but it is true that there is a lot of difference so it makes sense to use each mode for a different moment.
The manufacturer boasts several hours of autonomy but we have not been able to use them all for a very simple reason. This device has cleaned a floor of about 70 square meters in an hour.
When he has finished he has communicated it through the integrated speaker and has gone straight to his charging base.
Now that many of us work at home, an important detail about vacuum cleaners is that they are not especially noisy. This model, even in normal mode, is quieter than other competitive products, with a noise of about 65 dB.
Also, in case we want to use it at night we can use the silent mode and schedule a cleaning whenever we want from the app.
Let’s not forget that you can also scrub, controlling the amount of water you release. Yes,
Laser guided
Although there are many types of vacuum cleaners, not all have the same functions. I myself have analyzed several, somewhat lower priced, but did not have a laser guidance system.
What this function achieves is mapping the house that has to be cleaned and knowing where it has to go, leaving no corner unclean. This is relevant because with other vacuum cleaners we saw that many times it passed through the same area but there were others where it did not clean.
In addition, this allows creating virtual walls without the need to use other devices, so if we want to clean only one room, we only have to mark it in the application.
As for physical obstacles, the Ecovacs Deebot N3 Max can climb items of up to 2 cm, such as carpets, and is capable of detecting steps, so as not to fall down stairs, for example.
Control from mobile

The application that we have available in the Google Play Store is the control center of this vacuum cleaner. From it we can clean, control the map that I have made of our house, delete it if we want, and do it again. We can even schedule when we want it to go live.
When we started using this vacuum cleaner we saw how it communicated with us when it had a message to give. The surprise has come to see that we can set the language in spanish so we will understand what happens to you at all times.
For example, if it gets stuck because there are cables on the floor, it will notify us with a voice message, just like when cleaning is finished, at which point it tells us that it has finished and that it is going to the charging base.
On the other hand, we can configure both the Google assistant and Alexa to be able to use voice commands to execute the cleaning thanks to the integrated Wi-Fi connection that the Deebot N3 Max has.
We can start a cleaning, finish it, send it to the charging base and even tell it to specifically clean one of the rooms in our house. All this directly from the voice assistant of our mobile or our smart speakers.
Conclusion: we loved it
It might seem that analyzing a smart vacuum cleaner is not the most interesting thing in the world. But we would be wrong. The Ecovacs Deebot N3 Max is a really interesting product for all those who know that they are going to use it.
It is a mid-range vacuum cleaner, with functions that I personally believe are essential such as laser mapping to make sure that everything is clean, or the silent mode to be able to vacuum at night, when there is no one who could be bothered by being around. by the House.
But even if we are always inside, if we want to use it when we are watching TV or eating, the fact that it is quieter than other vacuum cleaners makes that possible.
We can buy the Ecovacs Deebot N3 Max online in stores like Alibaba at about 200 euros at the exchange.
