Bought the X12 Buddy Kit and it honestly made the robot feel refreshed again
I recently got the Buddy Kit for my Ecovacs X12, mostly for maintenance. The mopping roller is the part I’m probably most glad to have a spare for. I like being able to rotate them, so one can be cleaned properly and fully air dried instead of going straight back in while still damp. It just feels more hygienic, especially since the kitchen and dining area get dirty faster.
Same with the filters. I try to rinse them regularly, but it’s annoying to wait for one to dry before using the robot again. Having extras makes it easier to keep the X12 running without skipping cleaning days.
The regular cleaning solution is fine for daily runs, and the heavier duty one seems better for sticky or greasy areas.
Just sharing in case it helps someone who’s on the fence about getting spare parts.
