The Eufy Robot Vacuum Review
Eufy robot vacuums are known for their user-friendly. The Eufy RoboVac 30C is Wi-Fi enabled and has an wireless remote control to make it easy to use the app. It also has boundary strips and a battery that lasts for 100 minutes.
Its Boost IQ technology lets you move from wood and tile to low-pile carpeting and area rug without a hitch. Other features included in the standard package include drop and obstacle detection, which allows it to keep from hitting walls and furniture.
Boost IQ Technology
The eufy robotic vacuum line has many models. However certain features are common to all of them. Boost IQ is one such feature, which helps your robot move smoothly from hard floors to medium to low pile carpeting and area rug. It will automatically increase suction power when it comes into contact with a particular surface type to make sure it gets as clean as it can.
Another feature that is useful is the ability to change between various cleaning modes. The Quick Clean mode is perfect for a quick, 30-minute sweep of the floor. Auto will work in the vast space without changing modes. Edge will focus on the walls and corners.
Of course, the eufy robotic also has the essential capabilities like obstacle and drop detection, as well as self-emptying bases. The majority of robots come with an obstacle and drop detection system. This stops them from hitting walls or furniture.
Certain eufy robots come with LED indicators that let you know what they're up to like a digital clock. A solid green indicates that the robot is in standby or charging mode while blue means that it's on and working, and a solid orange means that your eufy is running low on power and needs to return to its base.
The RoboVac 11S from Eufy is a top-rated robotic vacuum, is ideal for those who are looking for a robust robot with a long running time. It also has the ability to get to the most remote corners of your house. Its slim design is a good fit under furniture or in tight spaces. It also has an tempered glass cover that is scratch-resistant. There's also physical controls and smart sensors to assist with navigation, as well as various cleaning modes. However, it lacks a lot of the advanced features that some of the other models do, such as digital mapping or app-based controls.
Powerful Suction
This vacuum cleaner has an impressive suction of 2,000 psi, which is great to remove food crumbs, cereal crumbs and other particles of dust and debris on medium- to low pile carpeting and hard flooring. It also removes dust mites, pet hair and other allergens from upholstered furniture. A rotating side brush helps get into corners and along baseboards, while the brush that rolls pulls up dirt and other debris that clings to surfaces.
The 25C is connected to WiFi and can be controlled by an app for smartphones. It can also be controlled with voice commands when connected to an Amazon Echo or Google Assistant smart home speaker. It also has a compact base for charging that can be used to store the vacuum when not in use.
All eufy robotic vacuums come with a number standard features. They include drop and obstacle detection, which prevents it from running into objects or falling down stairs. Some models, such as the eufy RoboVac11S or its re-engineered predecessor, the RoboVac 30C Max offer advanced navigation systems which create and memorize an electronic map to help it know the direction it should take (and avoid) each time it cleans.
You can customize cleaning cycles or set specific areas to the eufy robot vacuum to not use the app or Alexa-compatible voice commands. Additionally, you can cordon off rooms that contain sensitive items, such as your children's toys or console tables. This model comes with a pair of border strips that can be bundled to let you block off larger areas.
The eufy RoboVac 11S MAX is among the top-performing robotic vacuums in our tests with the top marks for cleaning ability and navigation. Its design is simple, with a single button to wake it up and an on/off switch beneath for a continuous shut-off. It also has a tempered-glass surface with ten sensors that help avoid obstacles, and a 0.15 gallons/0.6 liter dust bin. The re-engineered navigation system is fitted with iPath laser scanning technology that builds and stores a map of your floor. The system then uses this information to quickly navigate to each part of your home and make sure it covers every square inch of your floor.
Convenient App Control
Eufy's models are equipped with intelligent features that allow you to control your device remotely. You can schedule cleaning times, establish virtual boundaries to stop your robot from entering certain rooms (such as those that have electrical cords) and also use the'return back to base feature'. Some allow you to create a map of your home and mark areas you want to clean.
Some of the top-of-the-line vacuum cleaners that eufy makes use of include a navigation system dubbed "smart mapping" that scans your house and creates an image of the map it is referring to every time it cleans. This allows the vacuum cleaner to effortlessly move between bare floors and area rugs, then back again, without skipping one step.
The RoboVac 25C, which is eufy, is a great example of this type of model. It has three distinct suction power modes you can select through its companion app: 'Standard' and 'Turbo'. This increases the efficiency of the machine when cleaning floors that are not clean, and 'Max', which is designed for high-pile carpeting.
The vacuum's battery life is also excellent. It can be used in its default "Standard" mode for up to 100 mins. The vacuum has an inbuilt indicator for batteries that blinks blue when it is charging, and then turns orange when power is low, and then is fully charged and solid blue.
Another cool feature is the 'Spot Cleaning' mode that allows you to make the vacuum focus on a small, localized area by pressing a button at its base. This is great for getting pet hair or crumbs out of corners or from under furniture where a conventional vacuum would struggle to reach.
The elegant RoboVac also does an admirable job of removing pet hair from various floor types, though it might need several more passes to remove stubborn patches of hair in carpets with high and low pile. As with most robotic cleaners it's not as effective in getting hair out of crevices and cracks as it is with floors that are bare but it does an overall excellent job of picking up pet hair from both bare and carpeted surfaces.
100 Minutes of Cleaning
The eufy robotic vacuum can provide an impressive 100 minutes of cleaning time, with a self-return to its base for charging. It can be used on a variety of floors, and comes with an efficient vacuum that can remove everything from cereal pieces to glitter tiny specks. It comes with a tough brush roll, as well as a side brush that helps it get into more info crevices and corners that other robots may not be able to reach.
The battery-powered robo vacuum works on carpets and hard floors and can be activated via the included remote control or via your smartphone or smart home assistant to send commands over Wi-Fi. You can also adjust the Boost IQ feature which maximizes suction power according to the kind of floor it is working on.
Like other eufy robots the G30 Edge is designed to operate around your home, with the least amount of setup. It takes just a minute to attach the edge brushes rotating in a circular motion and connect to your home Wi-Fi. Once connected, the app allows you to set up an cleaning routine and also use voice commands using an intelligent home speaker compatible.
Many eufy robots provide this level of flexibility which lets you choose the specific areas you want it to focus on and the time you would like it to clean. The app allows you to define virtual boundaries that stop the robot from entering areas where there could be electrical cords or other obstacles.
Certain eufy products come with an intuitive map that uses a combination sensors to determine the location of walls and furniture. It then plots a route that will cover the area. Other models employ an algorithm for navigation called iPath which is more sophisticated. In these instances the robot vacuum employs an algorithm that creates the path, and then follow it until it reaches the area that is designated. The robot then returns to its dock where it is charged and awaiting its next cleaning.
Other models of the eufy robot vacuum do not have this level of intelligence. These entry-level models are usually the cheapest and do not use the digital map system. Instead, they plot an undetermined path each when they start a cleaning session. Although this can be frustrating at times, the robot will always cover the same spots over and over again. In addition, it never fails to cover corners or other hard to reach places.
