The Eufy Robot Vacuum Review
Eufy is a household name for its easy-to-use robot vacuums. Eufy's RoboVac 30C model is Wi-Fi-enabled and has an remote control that allows for easy app operation. It also has boundary strips and a battery life of 100 minutes.
Its Boost IQ technology can transfer from tile and wood to low-pile carpeting and area rugs without any hassle. Other features included in the standard package include drop and obstacle detection, which allows it to avoid hitting walls and furniture.
Boost IQ Technology
The eufy robotic vacuum line has a variety of models, however there are certain features that are standard across their line. One of them is Boost IQ technology designed to help your robot seamlessly transition from hard floors to low- to medium-pile carpeting as well as area rugs. It will automatically increase its suction power when it runs across a specific type of surface to ensure that you get the best possible clean.
Another useful feature 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 an area with a lot of space without switching modes. Edge will focus on the walls and corners.
Of course, the eufy robot also has the basic capabilities such as drop detection and Self vacuum robot obstacle detection as well as a self vacuum robot-emptying base. Obstacle and drop detection is pretty standard on most robots as it helps them avoid hitting furniture or Self vacuum robot walls, while the latter prevents them from falling down stairs or into other areas which could pose danger.
Certain eufy robots come with LED indicators that inform you of what they are doing similar to the digital clock. A solid green signal means that the robot is in charging or standby mode. Blue indicates that it is on and working. And a solid orange indicates that your eufy has run out of energy and has to return to its base.
The RoboVac 11S from Eufy is a top-rated model that's an ideal choice for those who want an efficient robot vacuum that has an extended run time, including its ability to reach the farthest corners of your home. Its slim design fits under furniture or in tight spaces. It also has a scratch-resistant, tempered glass cover. There's also an actual remote control and smart sensors for navigation, and several cleaning modes. It's missing some of the more advanced features of other models, like digital maps or app-based controls.
Powerful Suction
This robot vacuum has a powerful suction of 2,000 pa, which is great for picking up cereal crumbs, food particles, and other debris or dust on medium to low pile carpeting and hard flooring. It also removes dust mites, pet hair and other allergens from upholstery furniture. The rotating side brush is great for reaching into corners and along baseboards. The rolling brush picks dust, dirt and other debris that stick to surfaces.
The 25C is Wi-Fi connected and can be controlled from an app on your smartphone or via voice when it is connected to a smart home speaker such as an Amazon Echo or Google Assistant. It also comes with a small charging base that can hold the vacuum when not in use.
All eufy robotic vacuums include a number standard features. They include obstacle and drop detection, which keeps it from running into objects or falling down stairs. Certain models, like the eufy RoboVac 11S and its re-engineered predecessor the RoboVac 30C Max have advanced navigation systems that create and store a virtual map so that it knows where it should go (and avoid) each time it cleans.
You can set up certain areas and tailor cleaning cycles for the eufy robotic vacuum without the Alexa compatible app or voice commands. You can also separate areas that are sensitive, like areas that house toys for children or console tables. This eufy model comes with two bundled boundary strips that let you secure larger areas.
The RoboVac 11S MAX from Eufy is among the most powerful robot vacuum efficient robotic vacuums in our tests, earning the top marks for cleaning capability and navigation. Its design is simple and has one button on the top of the unit to get it going and an on/off switch beneath to turn off the vacuum permanently, as well as a tempered glass surface, ten infrared sensors to avoid obstacles, and an 0.15-gallons or 0.6-liter dust bin. Its re-engineered navigation device is equipped with iPath laser scanning technology that creates and stores the floor map. The system then uses this information to quickly navigate to each room in your house and ensure that it covers every square inch of your floor.
Convenient App Control
As is the case with many robot vacuums on the market Eufy's models have advanced features that allow you to manage your device remotely. This allows you to schedule cleaning times, set virtual boundaries that block your robot from entering certain areas (such as rooms full of electrical cords), and set the'return to base' feature. Some even let you draw a the map of your home and mark areas where you want to clean.
Some of the top-of-the-line vacuum cleaners that eufy makes use of include a navigation system called "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 seamlessly move between bare floors and area rugs, then back again, without missing a step.
The RoboVac 25C from Eufy is a perfect example of this type of model. It has three suction power settings you can select through the companion app "Standard", "Turbo" which boosts the efficiency of the machine in cleaning floors with no dust and "Max" which is specifically designed to clean floors with high piles.
Its battery performance is excellent it allows the vacuum to run for up to 100 minutes in its standard 'Standard' mode. The vacuum is equipped with a built in indicator for the battery that flashes blue while it is charging, then turns orange when power is low, and finally it turns blue when fully charged.
The "Spot Cleaning Mode' is a cool feature. It allows you to force the vacuum cleaner to concentrate on a specific area, by pressing a button near the base of the. This is great for getting crumbs or pet hair out of corners or from under furniture where a traditional vacuum might struggle to reach.
The eufy RoboVac is a great choice for cleaning on pet hair, however it might need to make some more passes to remove stubborn patches of hair from low- and high pile carpeting. As with most robotic cleaners it's not as effective in removing hair from crevices and cracks like it is on floors that are unfinished but it does a fantastic job of removing pet hair from both carpeted and bare 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 able of working on multiple floors and comes equipped with a powerful suction that can pick up everything from cereal chunks to glitter specks with ease. A sturdy brush roll and an additional side brush allow it to reach corners and crevices that might be out of reach for other robots.
The battery-powered robo vacuum works on carpets and hard floors and can be activated via the remote control that comes with it or via your smartphone or smart home assistant to send commands over Wi-Fi. You can also adjust Boost IQ which can optimize the suction power based on the type of floor that the vac is working.
Like other eufy robots the G30 Edge is designed to be able to work in your home with the least amount of installation. Snap on the edge brush that rotates and connect to Wi-Fi in just one minute. Once it's connected, you can use the app to create a cleaning schedule and voice commands through the compatible smart speaker.
This level of customization is available on many elegant robotic vacuum cleaners. You can select which areas you'd like to clean and when. The app allows you to set virtual boundaries, which are used to stop the robot from entering rooms where there may be electrical cords or other obstacles you'd prefer not to sweep up.
Certain eufy products come with an intuitive map that makes use of a combination of sensors to calculate the locations of furniture and walls. It then plots a route that will cover the areas. Other models employ a navigational technology called iPath, which is a more advanced. In these instances, a robotic vacuum uses an algorithm that creates an iPath path, and then follow it until it covers the area that is designated. The robot returns to its dock, from where it charges and awaits its next cleaning.
Other models of the eufy robotic vacuum don't have this level of intelligence. These models, which are generally the cheapest in the lineup, don't use the digital mapping system, but instead draw a random zig-zag path each time they begin a cleaning session. Although this can be a bit frustrating, the eufy robotic cleaner always covers the same areas. It also rarely misses corners or other hard-to-reach areas.
