The Eufy Robot Vacuum Review
Eufy robot vacuums are famous for their ease of use. The Eufy RoboVac 30C model is Wi-Fi-enabled and includes a remote control for convenient application operation. It also has boundary strips and a battery that lasts for 100 minutes.
Its Boost IQ technology can move from wood and tile to carpeting with a low-pile and area rugs without any hassle. Other features included in the standard package include obstacle detection and drop detection which allow it to avoid hitting furniture and walls.
Boost IQ Technology
The eufy robotic vacuum line offers a wide variety of models, however there are certain features that are standard across their entire line. One of them is Boost IQ technology that is specifically designed to aid your robot seamlessly transition from hard flooring to low- to medium-pile carpeting and area carpets. It will automatically increase its suction power when it runs across a specific type of surface in order to get the best possible clean.
A useful feature is the ability to manually switch between 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 corners and walls.
Of course, the eufy robot also comes with basic features such as drop detection and obstacle detection as well as self-emptying bases. Most robots have an obstacle and drop detection system. This means that they are not able to hit furniture or walls.
Some of the eufy robots have a variety of LED indicators that communicate with you, similar to an electronic watch. A solid green means the robot is charging or standby mode. Blue means it is functioning and on. And a solid orange indicates that your eufy is out of power and needs to be returned to its base.
The RoboVac 11S from Eufy is a top-rated robotic vacuum, is the ideal choice for those who are seeking a powerful machine with a long running time. It is also able to reach the furthest corners of your house. Its slim design is a good fit under furniture or in tight spaces. It also has a scratch-resistant tempered glass cover. There’s also a physical remote control and smart sensors for navigation, and several cleaning modes. It’s not equipped with some of the more advanced features of other models, like digital maps or app-based controls.
Powerful Suction
A powerful suction level of 2,000 pa makes this robot vacuum and mop in 1 ideal for picking up food chunks cereal crumbs, food particles, and other dirt or dust that accumulate on hard floors and low- to medium-pile carpeting. It can also remove dust mites, pet hair and other allergens from upholstered furnishings. 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 Wi-Fi and can be controlled from a smartphone app or by voice when it is connected to a smart home speaker like an Amazon Echo or Google Assistant. It also has a compact charging base that holds the vacuum when it is not in use.
All eufy robot vacuums come with a number of standard features, like drop and obstacle detection to avoid running into objects or falling down the stairs. Certain models, like the eufy RoboVac 11S or its re-engineered predecessor, the eufy RoboVac 30C Max, have advanced navigation systems that create and store the virtual map to help it know where it is supposed to go (and avoid) every time it cleans.
You can personalize cleaning cycles or vacuum set specific areas to the eufy robot vacuum to stay clear of using the app or Alexa-compatible voice controls. You can also secure sensitive rooms, such as those containing your children’s toys or console tables. This eufy comes with two boundary strips which allow you to fence off larger spaces.
The RoboVac 11S MAX from Eufy is one of the best-performing robotic vacuums we tested with top marks for both cleaning capabilities and navigation. Its design is minimalist with a single button on the top to wake it up and an on/off switch under for a continuous shut-off and also a tempered glass surface and ten infrared sensors that keep away from obstacles, and a 0.15-gallons / 0.6-liter dust bin. Its new navigation system has been redesigned and equipped iPath technology that creates and stores a map for your floor. It then uses that information to swiftly navigate to every room in your house and make sure it covers every inch of your floor.
Convenient App Control
Like many robotic vacuums that are available, eufy’s models come with intelligent features that let you control your device from a distance. You can set up cleaning times, set virtual boundaries to stop your robot from entering certain rooms (such ones with electrical cords) and use the’return to base feature’. Some even let you draw a an outline of your home and mark areas you’d like to clean.
Some of eufy’s top-of-the-line robotic cleaners include a special navigation system, referred to as’smart mapping’, which scans your home’s floors and creates a map it uses every time it cleans. This enables the vacuum cleaner to seamlessly move between floors that are unfinished and area rugs, and back again, without missing the step.
The RoboVac 25C from Eufy is a great illustration of this model. It comes with three suction power settings that can be selected through the companion app “Standard”, “Turbo” which boosts the efficiency of the machine when cleaning floors that are not clean and “Max”, which is specifically designed to clean floors with high piles.
The battery life of the vacuum is also impressive. It can operate in its default “Standard” mode for up to 100 minutes. The vacuum has a built in indicator for the battery that flashes blue when it’s charging, then changes to orange when power is low, and then is fully charged and solid blue.
The “Spot Cleaning Mode’ is a amazing feature. It allows you to use the vacuum cleaner to concentrate on a specific area, by pressing a button on the base of the. This is great for getting pet hair or crumbs out of tight corners or from under furniture where a traditional vacuum might struggle to reach.
The soft RoboVac also does a fantastic job at removing pet hair on various floor types, though it might need a few extra passes to clear hairy patches that are difficult to remove from carpeting with a high or low pile. As with most robotic cleaners it’s not as adept at getting hair out of crevices and cracks like it is with floors that are bare but it does a fantastic job of picking up pet hair from bare and carpeted surfaces.
100 Minutes of Cleaning
The eufy robot vacuum can clean for a staggering 100 minutes, then automatically return to its charging base. It’s capable of working across several floors and comes with a powerful suction that can pick up everything from cereal chunks to glitter specks with ease. It comes with a tough brush roll, as well as a side brush that can help it reach crevices and corners that other robots may not be able to access.
The robo-vacuum powered by batteries can be controlled using the remote control provided or by transmitting commands over Wi-Fi via your smart-home assistant or smartphone. You can also alter Boost IQ, which optimizes the suction power based on the type of floor that the vac is working.
The G30 Edge, like other eufy robotics are designed to move around your home in a minimalist manner. Simply attach the edge brush that rotates and connect to Wi-Fi in less than a minute. Once connected, the app allows you to create an cleaning routine and also use voice commands via a smart home speaker compatible.
This level of customization is available on many elegant robotic vacuum cleaners. You can choose which areas you’d like it to clean and when. The app allows you to set virtual boundaries that prevent the robot from entering areas where there may be electrical wires, or other obstacles.
Some eufy models include an intuitive map that uses sensors to determine the position of furniture and walls, and creates a route to cover them. Others employ a more advanced navigational technology known as iPath. In these instances robot vacuums use an algorithm that creates an iPath path, and then follow it until it reaches the specified area. The robot mop vacuum returns to its dock where it charges and awaits its next cleaning.
Other models of eufy’s robot vacuum do not possess this level of intelligence. These entry-level models are usually the most affordable and don’t utilize the digital map system. Instead, they map a random route every time they begin cleaning. While this can be frustrating at times, the eufy robot is always able to cover the same areas over and over again. It is also not able to miss corners or other hard-to-reach areas.
