The Eufy Robot Vacuum Review
Eufy is known for making easy-to-use robot vacuums. The Eufy RoboVac 30C is Wi-Fi enabled and has a wireless remote control to make it easy to use the app. It also comes with boundary strips and the capacity of a battery that lasts for 100 minutes.
Its Boost IQ technology allows you to move from tile and wood to carpeting with a low-pile and area rug without a hitch. Other features included in the standard package include obstacle and drop detection which allow it to avoid hitting furniture and walls.
Boost IQ Technology
The Eufy robotic vacuum line includes several models. However, certain features are common to all models. One such feature is Boost IQ technology designed to help your robot effortlessly move from hard floors to low to medium-pile carpeting and area carpets. It will automatically boost suction power when it comes into contact with a particular surface type to ensure it is as clean as possible.
Another feature that is useful is the ability to change between a variety of cleaning modes. These include Quick Clean, which is perfect for a 30 minute fast sweep of the floor, Auto, which will work in an open space without having to switch modes, Edge, which will specifically focus on your walls and corners, and Spot which is the best when there's an area that needs extra attention like baking soda spilled on the floor.
Of course, the eufy robotic also has the essential capabilities like drop and obstacle detection as well as a self-emptying base. Most robots have an obstacle and drop detection system. This prevents them hitting walls or furniture.
Certain eufy robots come with LED indicators that inform you of what they are doing, similar to an electronic clock. A solid green indicates that the robot is charging or standby mode. Blue means it is functioning and on. And a solid orange signalizes that your eufy has run out of power and requires to be returned to its original location.
The RoboVac 11S from Eufy is a top-rated robotic vacuum, is ideal for those looking for a powerful robot with a long running time. It is also able to get to the most remote corners of your house. It features a slim design that fits under furniture and in tight spaces, as well as the glass cover is tempered and resistant to scratches. There's also an actual control as well as smart sensors that help with navigation, and different cleaning options. It lacks some of the more advanced features of other models, like digital maps or apps-based controls.
Powerful Suction
A powerful suction level of 2,000 pa makes this robot vacuum great to remove food pieces cereal crumbs, food particles and other bits of dirt or dust that accumulate on hard floors as well as carpeting with a low to medium pile. It also removes pet hair and other allergens from furniture that is upholstered. A rotating side-brush helps get into corners and along baseboards while the rolling brush picks up dirt and other debris that sticks to surfaces.
The 25C is wirelessly connected, and can be controlled by an app for smartphones. It can also be controlled via voice commands when paired with an Amazon Echo or Google Assistant smart home speaker. It also comes with a compact base for charging that can be used to store the vacuum when not in use.
All eufy robotic vacuums come with several standard features. They include drop and obstacle detection, which stops it from hitting objects or falling down the stairs. Some models, like the eufy RoboVac11S and its re-engineered version, the eufy RoboVac 30C MAX have advanced navigation systems that build and store the virtual floor map so it can know where to go (and where to avoid) every time it cleans.
You can designate certain areas and tailor cleaning cycles for the eufy robotic vacuum without using the Alexa compatible app or voice controls. You can also cordon off sensitive areas, like areas that house toys for children or console tables. This eufy model also comes with a pair of bundled boundary strips that let you secure larger areas.
The RoboVac 11S MAX from Eufy is one of the best-performing robotic vacuums that we have tested with top marks for both cleaning ability and navigation. Its design is simple, with one button to get it going, an on/off switch below for a continuous shut-off. It also has an tempered glass surface with ten sensors that help steer away from obstacles, and it comes with a 0.15 gallons/0.6 milliliters of dust bin. Its re-engineered navigation system is equipped with iPath laser scanning technology, which creates and stores the floor map. It uses this information to navigate quickly to every area of your home and ensure it covers every inch.
Convenient App Control
Similar to many robotic vacuums on the market Eufy's models have advanced features that let you control your device remotely. You can schedule cleaning times, establish virtual boundaries to block your robot from entering certain rooms (such ones with electrical cords) and use the'return to base feature'. Some of them allow you to draw a an outline of your home and mark the areas you would like to clean.
The top of the line vacuum cleaners made by eufy have a navigation system dubbed "smart mapping" that scans your home and builds an image of the map it is referring to every time it cleans. This allows the vacuum cleaner to move seamlessly between plain floors and area rugs, and then back to the beginning, without missing the step.
The eufy RoboVac 25C is a great illustration of this kind of model. It comes with three distinct suction power settings that you can select through its companion app: 'Standard' and 'Turbo'. This enhances the performance of the machine for cleaning floors that are not clean and 'Max' which is specifically designed for high-pile carpeting.
The battery life of the vacuum is also very good. It can operate in its default "Standard" mode for up to 100 minutes. The vacuum also features a built-in indicator for batteries that flashes blue when the vacuum is charging, turns pulsing orange when it's low on power, and then solidifies to blue when it's fully charged.
The "Spot Cleaning Mode' is a amazing feature. It allows you to use the vacuum cleaner to focus on a specific area by pressing a button on the bottom of the. This is great for getting crumbs or pet hair out of tight corners or under furniture where a conventional vacuum might struggle to reach.
The soft RoboVac does a great job on pet hair, but it may need to make several more passes in order to eliminate hairy patches from high and low pile carpeting. As with most robotic cleaners it's not as effective at getting hair out of cracks and crevices as it is on bare floors but it does an overall excellent job of removing pet hair from both carpeted and bare surfaces.
100 Minutes of Cleaning
The eufy robot vacuum provides an impressive 100 minutes of cleaning time, with automatic return to its base to charge. It's able to work across multiple floors and comes equipped with a powerful suction system that can remove anything from cereal pieces to glitter specks with ease. It has a durable brush roll and an additional brush that helps it reach corners and crevices that other robots may not be able to access.
The battery-powered robo-vacuum can be operated using the remote control that comes with it or by sending commands over Wi-Fi using your robot vacuum reviews smart-home assistant, smartphone, or even a smart device. You can also adjust the Boost IQ feature that optimizes suction power based on the type of floor the vac is working on.
As with other eufy robotics, the G30 Edge is designed to work around your home with only minimal set-up. It takes only a few minutes to connect the rotating edge brushes and connect to your Wi-Fi network at home. Once it's connected, you can make use of the app to create an agenda for cleaning and voice commands through the compatible smart speaker.
A lot of eufy robotics offer this level of flexibility that lets you select the specific areas that you want to focus it on and the times you'd like it to clean. The application allows you to define virtual boundaries that can be used to block the robot from entering rooms where there could be electrical cords or other obstacles that you'd prefer not to clean up.
Some eufy products include an intuitive map that utilizes a combination of sensors to calculate the locations of walls and furniture. It then creates a route to cover them. Others use a more sophisticated navigational system known as iPath. In these instances, a robotic vacuum uses an algorithm that creates the path, and then follow it until it reaches the area that is designated. The robot returns to its dock and is charged, waiting for its next scheduled cleaning.
Other models of the eufy robotic vacuum don't have this level of intelligence. The entry-level models are typically the most affordable and don't utilize an electronic map system. Instead, they chart a random route every when they start cleaning. While this can be frustrating at times, the eufy robot will always cover the same areas over and over again. In addition, it never fails to cover corners or other difficult to access areas.
