eufy [BoostIQ] RoboVac 30, Upgraded, Super-Thin, 1500Pa Strong Suction, 13 ft Boundary Strips Included, Quiet, Self-Charging Robotic Vacuum Cleaner, Cleans Hard Floors to Medium-Pile Carpets

The media could not be loaded.  I got my Eufy RoboVac 30 the other day and so far it’s one of the smartest vacuums I’ve seen!!First of all, on its remote control you can adjust the suction mode to BoostIQ, then it’ll automatically figure out how much suction it really needs based on its location. For example, if it’s on a carpet then it’ll switch to a higher power level than on a wooden floor. This feature can actually make the robovac go longer and do its job more efficiently.Also, eufy 30 comes with boundary strips that will make sure it’ll only go where you want it to go. The strip is like the base of an invisible wall, and once you fix it around the area where you don’t want eufy to clean, it will block off the area and prevent the robovac from entering. I usually put lots of shoes on the floor of my hallway and I don’t want smart vacuums to go near there because that'll clutter the area. It turned out those boundary strips really worked for me!Other than that this robovac is smart enough to know when it needs to recharge itself, and it will automatically go dock itself when the battery runs low. So basically all you need to do is to press the ‘start’ button on the remote control, and this rebovac will take care of everything else for you. Technology does change our lives, doesn’t it? XDOf course I bought this robovac to help clean my house, and this one has definitely impressed me with its strong cleaning ability. It kept my house perfectly clean with double filters and it didn’t even make too much noises during the process. See the ‘before’ and ‘after’ comparison in my video and picture! I would say this product can meet most of people’s demands and can bring you effortless daily cleaning experience. Perfect value, incredible technology. I would definitely recommend it to all my friends!!

We love our robot cleaner named Robbie, silly I know, we’ve become attached 😊I have a immune problem which I’m in all over body pain 24/7. It has become worse recently and left me unable to do simple chores such as vacuuming- I’ve been struggling and finally had to give in. Hubby works and now has to do shopping, washing etc, leaving me feeling guilty.Hence, we thought we try a robot vacuumed so it’s one less thing to worry about. We also have two dogs, one sheds a lot of hair.First we used it upstairs, without the strips to stop it going where you don’t want it to go. It avoids falling down stairs 👍We have a ting step up to our bedroom and it’s fine with that👍As it’s slim it even goes under some of our furniture too.Does a really great job of cleaning all our rooms and redo sk itself.We’ve not connected it to our phones yet etc, remote is easy to use and has couple of functions eg, edge cleaning. We’ve been assured by our son that putting it on our phone etc is easy.It’s amazing how much dust etc it gets up every day, even though we don’t allow our dogs upstairs. It’s easy to empty and we do it after every clean. Even I can do it, as it’s not heavy and easy to do.We’re so happy with it we invested in another one for downstairs!

I use this vacuum cleaner upstairs on the bedroom floor which is carpeted. The bathrooms are mopped so I don’t use it there.Downstairs there is a mix of tiles, laminate floor and carpet and I use my first robot vacuum cleaner Amazonbasics on this.Eufy has reliable anti drop sensor so I allow it to go room to room upstairs.I had to arrange for all cables to be fixed out of the robot zone and this wasn’t difficult as so long as it’s 3inches above it clears it easily.I leave it on auto and I like how it goes about the task. It is apparently random but it has effectively cleaned the edges and zigzag on large empty spaces. In complicated areas especially around chairs it bumps gently around to clean underneath.I’m happy with the cleaning performance as the side brushes are able to clean into corners and stair railings. It picks up dust and hair, and the container is quite large at 0.6 ltr.I clean the eufy brushing dust off the wheels and sensors and tapping the filter clean. The cylinder brush gets clogged with hair as I have long hair.I hope that it continues to work well with daily carpet cleaning and maintenance a few minutes a week.Parts and consumables are cheap and easy to come by.Negative issues?At the price point (I paid £159.99) it’s ok that I don’t have radar or mapping. I also don’t have WiFi connection, but without mapping what’s the point of that?The timer is 7 day cycle only and for one clean per day. You can specify what type of cleaning and preferred suction power. Boost IQ works fine on carpet only, but is designed for changes in cleaning environments.I don’t use Alexa or google home devices so wouldn’t use that. If you want to have voice control look at the 30C model which is £169.99 on offer at the moment.If there is a new software update I would like to be able to get it. It’s not updated by the consumer unfortunately.The remote should be able to set daily timing. Why not two programs implemented one after the other for an effective quick clean? Auto won’t suit everyone, nor is constant supervision for the quick cleaning.The programs all have their own button on the remote which is good. Not good is having to run through the program before setting another.That’s why I set it to auto as otherwise I will have to watch it complete the edge clean before choosing zigzag on the remote. This would be the quicker clean as auto takes two cycles of discharge and recharge. One carpet discharge lasts about 50 minutes. On laminate it would be twice as long.It takes 3 hours to recharge.I saw online that the Neato had an auto program that combines edge and zigzag in auto mode. It has lidar so creates a map of the room and you can do a single room clean.Amazonbasics is £99.99 and is sturdy within the same constraints as eufy.It has a much smaller suck area and 800 pa compared to 1500 pa, so it’s best on laminate and tiles.At this price point I’m happy with the performance of the eufy. It cleans medium pile carpet well, and can safely be left upstairs.Edit: I read online that the bumper sensor can be damaged by constantly knocking into furniture. Apparently this bump occurs when you have dark furniture. I have seen it happen in my living room where it bumps twice trying to negotiate a table leg which the amazonbasics would see and avoid.That's why I prefer using it upstairs where there are fewer obstacles.There is a solution which has preserved a 11S model for more than 2 years. Stick some foam insulation tape above and below the bumper sensor. When the robovac is motoring around, a bump won't damage the sensor or the furniture.
