Our verdict
The mini 2 keeps the MINI's 215 mm square and 55 mm height and fixes most of what it lacked. Suction goes from 7,500 to 8,000 Pa and 3,400 Pa on the move, with pressure compensation that reacts in 0.04 s; the planner moves up to WIN-SLAM 4.0 with resume, return to start and obstacles detected from 2 mm; and felt brushes at all four corners spin at up to 84 rpm to clean to 1 mm from the frame. An ultrasonic atomiser mists from four nozzles out of a 50 ml tank rated for 30 m². A 3,000 mAh internal battery holds it on for 30 minutes after a power cut, the 3.3 m rope is rated to 1,900 N on the German page and 1,600 N on the US one, and at 1.3 kg it is as light as the N1. It stays corded, 3.5 m from the power unit plus a 1.2 m mains lead, and Ecovacs prints no noise figure, no speed beyond about 2 min 30 s per square metre and no voice prompts.

In detail
Cleaning
It sprays water from a 50 ml tank and cleans about 30 m² per fill. It has 7 cleaning modes. It reaches into corners.
Grip and fit
Suction of 8,000 Pa keeps it on the glass, with pressure compensation. It detects the pane edge, so frameless glass is fine.
Safety
After a power cut it holds on for 30 minutes. A safety rope is included.
Navigation and control
It plans its path, resumes after an interruption, returns to where it started and steers round obstacles. It comes with a remote. The cable reaches 3.5 m.
