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 comes with a remote control for convenient use via the app. It also comes with boundary strips and a battery that lasts for 100 minutes.
Its Boost IQ Technology can easily move from tile, wood and area rugs, to low-pile and area rug. Other features included in the standard package include obstacle and drop detection that allow it to prevent bumps against walls and furniture.
Boost IQ Technology
The eufy robot vacuum line offers a wide variety of models, but there are some features that are common across their entire line. Boost IQ is one of those features that assists your robot to move smoothly from hard floors to low to medium pile carpeting and area rugs. It will automatically boost suction power when it comes across a certain surface type to make sure it gets as clean as possible.
Another useful feature is the ability to manually switch between various cleaning modes. These include Quick Clean, which is perfect for a 30 minute fast sweep of your floor, Auto, which will operate in an open space without having to switch modes, Edge, which will really focus on the corners and walls, and Spot, which works best when there's a small space that needs extra attention such as spilled baking soda.
Of course, the eufy robotic also has the basic capabilities like drop and obstacle detection as well as a self-emptying base. Most robots have a standard obstacle and drop detection. This prevents them hitting walls or furniture.
A number of the eufy robots have a variety of LED indicators that can communicate with you, just like an electronic watch. A solid green indicates that the robot is in standby or charging mode while blue indicates that it's working and on and a solid orange indicates that your eufy is running low on power and must return to its base.
The eufy RoboVac 11S is a top-rated robotic vacuum, is the ideal choice for those who are seeking a powerful machine with a long run time. It also has the ability to be able to reach the farthest corners of your house. It's slim lines that fit 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 in navigation, and a variety of cleaning modes. It lacks some of the more advanced features of other models, such as digital maps or apps-based controls.
Powerful Suction
A powerful suction level of 2,000 pa makes this robot vacuum ideal for picking up food chunks, cereal crumbs, and other bits of debris or dust on hard floors and low- to medium-pile carpeting. It also gets rid of dust mites, pet hair and other allergens from upholstered furnishings. A rotating side brush can help get into corners and along baseboards while the rolling brush picks dirt and other debris that sticks to surfaces.
The 25C is WiFi-connected, and is controlled by a smartphone app. It can also be controlled using voice commands when connected to an Amazon Echo or Google Assistant smart home speaker. It also comes with a small base for charging that can be used to store the vacuum when not in use.
All Eufy robot vacuums have several standard features, such as drop and obstacle detection to prevent it from running into objects or falling down the stairs. Certain models, such as the eufy RoboVac11S and its re-engineered successor the eufy RoboVac 30C MAX, have advanced navigation systems that build and remember a virtual floor map so that it knows where to go (and where to avoid) each time it cleans.
You can create specific areas and customize cleaning cycles for the eufy robot vacuum without the Alexa compatible app or voice commands. You can also isolate rooms that contain fragile items, website like your children's toys or console tables. This eufy comes with two boundary strips that allow you to cordon off larger areas.
The eufy RoboVac11S Max is among our top-performing robotic vacuums. It has received the top marks for cleaning and navigation. Its design is pared-back with one button on the top to turn it on and an on/off switch under for a permanent turn-off and also a tempered glass surface, ten infrared sensors to avoid obstacles and the 0.15-gallons or 0.6-liter dust bin. Its new navigation system has been redesigned and equipped iPath technology, which creates and stores a map of your floor. It then uses that information to swiftly navigate to every area of the house and ensure it covers every square inch of your floor.
Convenient App Control
As is the case with many robotic vacuums available that are available, eufy's models come with intelligent features that let you control your device remotely. You can schedule cleaning times, set virtual boundaries to stop your robot from entering certain rooms (such as those that have electrical cords) and use the'return to base feature'. Some even let you draw a an outline of your home and mark areas you want to clean.
The most advanced eufy robotic cleaners include a special navigation system, referred to as'smart mapping', which analyzes the floors of your home and creates a map it refers to each cleaning. This allows the vacuum to move seamlessly from bare floors to area rugs, and back again without skipping any steps.
The eufy RoboVac 25C, for example, is a great example of this model. It comes with three distinct suction power modes that you can choose from its app companion: 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 is outstanding and allows the vacuum to run for as long as 100 minutes in its standard Standard mode. The vacuum comes with built-in battery indicator which flashes blue while it is charging, and then turns orange when the power is low, and then it turns blue when fully charged.
The "Spot Cleaning Mode' is a awesome feature. It lets you force the vacuum cleaner to concentrate on a specific area, by pressing a button on the base of the. This is a great way to remove pet hair or crumbs out of tight corners and under furniture in areas where an upright vacuum would struggle.
The soft RoboVac is also a great job at removing pet hair on various floor types, though it may require several more passes to get rid of hairy patches that are difficult to remove from low- and high-pile carpeting. As with most robotic cleaners it's not as adept at getting hair out of crevices and cracks like it is on bare floors however, it does a great job of picking up pet hair from carpeted and un-floored surfaces.
100 Minutes of Cleaning
The robot vacuum's suction can clean for an impressive 100 minutes, and then automatically return to its charging base. It's able to work across several floors and comes with a powerful suction unit that can take everything from cereal chunks to glitter specks in a matter of minutes. A sturdy brush roll and an additional side brush allow it to reach crevices and corners that aren't within reach for other robots.
The battery-powered robo-vacuum is controlled using the remote control provided or by sending commands over Wi-Fi via your smart-home assistant or smartphone. You can also alter Boost IQ which can optimize the suction power according to the floor type on which the vac is working.
Like other eufy robots the G30 Edge is designed to work around your home with only minimal setup. It takes only a few minutes to connect the rotating edge brushes and connect to your Wi-Fi network at home. Once connected, the app lets users to create an cleaning routine and also use voice commands with a smart home speaker compatible.
Many eufy robots offer this level of personalization that lets you select the specific areas that you want to focus it on and the times you'd like it to clean. The app allows you to create virtual boundaries that block the robot from getting into areas where there might be electrical cords, or other obstacles.
Certain models of eufy include an intuitive map which uses sensors to calculate the position of walls and furniture and plots a route to cover them. Other models use an algorithm for navigation called iPath which is a more advanced. In these cases the robotic vacuum employs an algorithm to create an iPath path, and then follows it until the desired area is fully covered. The robot then returns to its dock and starts charging in anticipation of its next scheduled cleaning.
Other models of eufy's robot vacuums do not have this level of intelligence. These entry-level models are usually the cheapest and do not utilize the digital map system. Instead, they map a random route every when they start cleaning. Although this can be a bit frustrating at times, the eufy robot will always cover the same spots repeatedly. In addition, it never fails to cover corners or other difficult to access areas.
