Would highly recommend to anyone with pets!
I have 2 long haired cats and after hoovering the house it seemed pointless because it’d be back to being covered in little fur deposits by time I’ve finished. But this little beauty has been a life saver! Set the schedule to clean whenever you want and away it goes. It gets round the entire bottom floor of the house no problem and very rarely has problems getting stuck. The battery life is enough to have it running on max suction for an hour and still having about half left which by then it’s finished the job and returning home. Honestly one of the best purchases I’ve ever made
Excellent robovac. Good if you have animals
This my first foray into the world of robot vacuums. I have to say that I am very impressed. We have 2 cats and if you also own animals, you know how much fur they shed every day. This little beauty calmly vacuums our entire house in about an hour and 30 mins leaving everything looking super clean. It’s easy to manage and easy to empty.
The biggest issue is it will have a panic attack if there are clothes or wires on the floor so do some tidying of those things beforehand. Other than that, it’s a great device.
Fantastic machine a must have for any home !
I was a bit unsure about buying a robovac as in how good it would be. I purchased Eufy as I have their outdoor security cams and think they are fantastic! I live in a bungalow which makes it easier for the robovac to do its job, without having to lift it at all. I have it scheduled to clean every day. I have two dogs and it picks up any dog hair with ease. It saves me time as I would of vacuumed every day. This little machine is a must and I will definitely not be without one . I did have a problem with a wheel on the device, maybe something got stuck in it , I’m not sure. I contacted the company and they responded very fast and sent me a new wheel. The robovac was up and running again.
Eufy support would be another reason why I would buy from this company every time!
Great little vacuum.
Love this robot vacuum, just switch it on and it does the work. I lift certain thinks like chairs once a week to let it clean underneath furniture that it can’t get under. Wish I could have had one years ago.
Does what I need it fo
I use this to vacuum my flat. It works well enough for my needs but the controls are very basic and if I had more clutter or more than one floor to clean I doubt I’d bother with a robot in the first place.
It has enough suction power to pick up dust and hair daily on my carpet, is easy to operate and does it in one charge but it lacks advanced features and can sometimes miss spots.
Wish I had known about this earlier 👍
Love everything about this. Suction is everything you would expect and I love that I can ask Alexa to have robovac Bertie-bot set to work then send him ‘home’. Fascinating to watch. Video is Bertie on spot clean, added Wilf, doorstop, for effect. Best fun I’ve ever had cleaning, which I have always, previously, loathed as it’s a repetitive task. I can now delegate to Bertie-bot.
Supe
Was hung up on whether to get a Dyson or Robovac for our new house. I can’t believe how I considered anything else. Amazing machine. So handy. Just brilliant. Still have a corded Miele but haven’t used it properly in weeks. Robovac really covers everywhere.
Love it!!!!
What great product, our hard floors have never looked better!!!
So much better than I expected…
This thing is a gem. I absolutely love it. My wife was sceptical at first but even she is impressed. It works very well indeed. It’s methodical and is a proper vacuum cleaner – certainly not a gimmick. My only criticism (and I am struggling a bit here) is that the collection tray is small so fills up quickly. And if it’s full, it will spit out dust on the carpet so you need to keep an eye on it and make sure it’s emptied daily. If you have a dog that sheds hair everywhere, this is perfect. Alexa integration is also excellent. It just works.
Brilliant hoovers so you don’t have too
Love this it keeps my very dusty flat under control I can set it for times to come on regularly even when I’m not home, love i
Great tech device
We love it! Our dog not so much lol
Great device, easy to set up and control via mobile app or Alexa and it’s great you can schedule the week. Super happy with it so far!
Good value for money
Very impressed with the hoover, easy to use and set up
Brilliant!!
Bought as a present for a friend, so this is a second hand review.
First, just a quick overview of my friend (very pertinent). She is a very house proud lady, has two large hairy dogs (it’s amazing that they aren’t bald to be fair!), and regularly vacuums. We’re talking 4 or 5 times a day. Highly critical of cleaning products, so I took a risk buying it, but it paid off!
She absolutely loves it! It leaves little tyre marks in the carpet, so easy to see where the little guy has been. Not only does it manage to pick up all the dog hair from the carpet, but it absolutely flies on the tiles!
For the first time, she doesn’t have to spend half her day cleaning, she can put her feet up and watch it trundle along!
Definitely worth paying the extra for this model-it moves around the room in a logical manner rather than random bumping. It takes itself back to charge, and picks up where it left off.
I cant comment on the app unfortunately, but if i get an update from my friend then i will update here!
The only other thing to say is that i wish i had kept it for myself!
Best purchase ever!
I genuinely think this is the best invention ever!!! When I told my family I wanted to buy this they all laughed!! After just 1 week they now all think it’s the best money I have ever spent. We have 3 cats and I was fed up of seeing cat hair everywhere. This has alleviated that stress and gets to places that we don’t usually go when vacuuming normally – under the furniture. I am amazed how much it picks up. We set it going every couple of days and every time I am shocked we have accumulated so much dust and cat hair. I couldn’t recommend this highly enough.
It does need emptying after every use and cleaning once a week.
How did i live without a robot vacuum??
After changing our flooring from carpet to wood, it felt like the right time to invest, and all the reviews seemed to suggest this model was a good middle spec Eufy.
Blooming love this thing. Its reasonably quiet, and just runs round the house every morning, giving it a quick hoover. It takes ~45 minutes, and i’m amazed how much it hoovers up every single day!
It isn’t perfect, it misses some corners, it can leave some stuff on transitions between hard floor and carpet, and i have a table it gets stuck on, as the foot is just the right height for it to mount.
I probably use a real hoover once a week, and its mostly to go into the bits the Eufy can’t get to.
Only real downside, is the couple of minutes a day i spend tidying up before the hoover goes round, but that’s no different to using a real hoover.
We love this thing, such a great purchase. Just don’t pay full price, keep your eyes open for the special offers that happen reguarly.
Strongly recommended!
I have to say I thought robot vacuum cleaners were a bit of a novelty until we saw our friend’s at work. We immediately bought one and are very very pleased with it. It gets stuck from time, negotiating various rugs, but all in all it really is a very efficient device!
Coming home to a clean house with no effort.
I wouldn’t say I hate vacuuming, but it is tiresome and repetitive chore that I find myself putting off at times. I looked around for ways to help and found this. So far it’s been amazing. The set up was only complicated by the device being on 2.4ghz network and my phone resolutely sticking to 5ghz. But I have other smart devices so used other methods to get around that. I’ve set it too clean while I’m at work through the app which was really easy. With the hope that it would pick up my messy crumbs from late night snacking and the rush to prepare my lunch before I leave. But it does much more than that. The suction is excellent I’ve come home to find the house looking really nice, with a freshly cleaned bounce to the carpets. The pick up is great for dust, hair fibres and crumbs
Is it perfect? No the navigation around my house is complicated let alone getting between tables and chairs. So yes there are corners and bits that Eufy has missed just as there are areas it’s cleaned 2 or 3 times. But I wasn’t expecting this to mean I never had to clean again. What it does mean is that my house is cleaner more of the time with less effort! What’s not to like!
Saves so much time
I love this vacuum cleaner for helping stay on top of day to day debris. If you are thinking it will perform in the same way as a standard manual vacuum then this isn’t the caseit’s absolutely great for day to day cleaning but there is still a need to do a “thorough” clean, especially if you have areas the vac can’t reach.
I think it generally gives great coverage and I love it remembers where it paused cleaning if it runs out of charge. I do think it would benefit from two side brushes and slightly improved suction however.
All in all, very happy with my purchase and the app is so user friendly!
Best Buy in a long time!
Bloody fantastic.. best thing I’ve bought for ever! It runs for about 60 minutes and I empty it every time and change/wash the filter after about 3 or 4 goes All I do is lift phone cables or anything that may get caught in the wheels . Honestly a fab buy as long as you have 5 mins to clear away any hazards
Best Purchase for a Long TIme!
Great product at a great price. The G30 takes longer the first time it was used so it can map out the area it needs to clean then the subsequent cleans are noticeably quicker. A cleaner is still needed to get into corners, but this device takes all the unpleasant effort and all the time and effort previously wasted on cleaning is reduced to “Hey Google, start cleaning”! Should have bought one years ago!
You’ll not regret buying one.
This is the second me I’ve bought, had the G10 hybrid (Not this one, same brand) downstairs for over a year it’s awesome, stays on top of my German Shepard’s hair no probs. Just bought this one (the G30) for the upstairs bedrooms and it’s even better. No dog upstairs but it turns out the girls in my house shed more. It goes on all the time and never has issues with the Hoover or app.
Long battery life
Easy to use and suction power is great at picking up dog hairs. Battery life is great. One niggle is that when it’s doing a smaller space and setting is to not return to the charging base unit takes just as long to clean 6m2 as it does 20m2.
Amazing optimum cleaning
Incredible cleaning performance and added ability to work on carpet including my shaggy rug! The way it navigates is truly amazing and perfectly steers around furniture legs and obstacles.
This is one of those purchases that just leaves a complete satisfaction and happy grin!
Pretty good all round!
We got this one after buying and returning another make, which wasn’t great. This one was recommended by a friend and so far been pretty impressed.
It connected to the wifi and app on my phone really easily. Remote control on the app is simple and also easy to use.
We haven’t found that the navigation has been as described; not quite straight lines, still more random than anything.
It does however have good suction and even after a vacuum with our upright, collects a good amount!!
The dog isn’t enamoured with it, it appears to want to Hoover wherever he is layingbut we’re happy with it!
Far better than i imagined
Far exceeded my expectations it has really made a difference to our day to day lives. My partner is a stickler for dirt and the Eufy keeps on top of it very well. Gets into all sorts of knooks and crannies and under tables etc. has only got stuck the once but gets over door bars and other slight changes in heights really well. Its also doing very well with Dog hair! Would 100% recommend to others.
Good
Really easy to set up. Suction is good. Noise level is acceptable. Good value for money
After over a week, can confirm that the smart dynamic navigation works well for this price.
Great product - wish I had bought soone
Very impressed with the robovac and am considering buying a second one, one for upstairs, one for downstairs. Does a great job. Very easy to use.
Fantastic
Wouldn’t be without it. One of the best hoovers I’ve ever had. Voice activated with Alexa and Google
Great purchase!
Exactly like everyone says – a life changing purchase! My daughter says it’s a she and her name is Vector 😉 works great on wooden floor and carpet. Battery lasts enough to clean the whole house. Works very nicely with the app. You can a map of your house and the obstacles. Would definitely recommend.
OK, so we’ll get the bad bits out of the way first:
1. It’s a Tuya based device, so don’t expect it to integrate into anything other than its own app without a load of faff. I’ve gone through the requisite faff and managed to get it working the way I want, which is the only reason it didn’t get returned. Eufy is an Anker brand and I would have expected such a well established and reviewed manufacturer to have built their own protocol/API, instead of using Tuya as a crutch.
2. It will try to procreate with the cat scratching post any every given opportunity. The base is just the right height for the vac to think it can get up the ledge, but it is stopped by the post in the middle. Repeated several times, it makes for a laughable display. I have also seen it ram the post either out of spite, frustration or both.
3. Manual controls in the app are a joke, but they’re not really needed anyway.
That’s it for the bad, everything else is fantastic:
1. The main cleaning brush is a mix of bristles and soft rubber. The bristles work to agitate dust off the floor and the rubber parts do an excellent job of pulling hair out of carpeted areas. The side brush does an acceptable job of flicking dust from the skirting so you’re not left with dirty edges.
2. Our home is a mix of laminate, tile, carpet and rugs. The machine can deal with them all, even a particularly thick piled rug that I was initially afraid it would jam on. Configured correctly, it will adjust the suction power depending on the surface (extra power for thicker surfaces) – so it isn’t needlessly loud where it doesn’t need to be.
3. The cleaning tool is brilliant. it has a small embedded blade much like a boxcutter. It can be slipped into two grooves on either end of the main brush to deal with the hair that gets wrapped around there. The plastic comb part works well to lift chunkier debris from the main section of the brush.
4. General intelligence is good. I trust it not to attempt suicide down a staircase, it backs up sharpish when it detects a ledge. Mapping is generally accurate. It will fail to clean certain areas only very occasionally which I can forgive it for due to the layout of our rooms. Effort goes into trying to avoid its charging dock, though there are sometimes little accidents that do it no harm. Just a bit of noise. It will usually ‘see’ the dock when it get’s too close, stop, and then go around it in an arc.
5. Unless started on a different floor to the charger, it will always eventually find its way home.
While this will never replace a proper vacuum, it does wonders for maintaining the floors between bigger cleaning sessions. The amount of pet hair it has picked up is staggering. Plus it is a nice little show-piece and the cats enjoy stalking it as it does its thing.
All in all, good buy.
Great robovac with fantastic customer service!
I bought the G30 model for myself then ordered my mum the same model. We both love the robovac, you realise just how much it lifts when you empty the compartment where the dust collects.
My mums hoover then had a fault, we emailed Eufy and their customer service was just fantastic. Long story short, they ended up replacing the hoover, quickly and without fuss, even refunding the cost of sending the faulty hoover back to them. Fabulous service and I would absolutely recommend..as would my mum!
Definitely not a gimmick!
Consistently picks up dust and dirt on carpets and hard floors. Scheduled to clean each day and goes about it’s business effortlessly, although it has got itself stuck a couple times so it’s just about learning where the hazards may be e.g. loose wires or sofas it like to jam itself under.
App is great, there’s no remote control as such and you can’t put in barriers like the more expensive ones but I don’t find I need it.
I’m giving it 5 stars for value for money as I picked it up on offer for 220.
First robovac
Works great and travels room to room, finds charger by bumping its way back.
Seems to run for 80 minutes max, need another for upstairs now 🙂
First Vac - Not dissapointed!
This thing really has worked well for me. It’s the first RoboVac I’ve ever bought, and I was a bit sceptical about how well it would work. I’m now really confident it was a great purchase, and as I said in my opening sentence, it really works well in our house. The suction is adequate enough to collect crumbs, dust and small debris. And the fact that you can make it clean more regularly than you’d normally vacuum means the collection of dust/debris is small, so the relatively small dust container can handle that without issue. The ‘intelligence’ is quite impressive. Cant quite work out the algorithms it uses to get around objects, but I’ve not once faced any unexplainable situations, where the vac just goes round and round/gets lost etc. I’ve used this now for about 3 weeks.
I’m really happy with the product (as I often am with EUFY/Anker brands), and being a gadget kinda guy, slightly regret I didn’t go all out, and take it up a level to EUFY’s top model (L70). However, as an affordable mid-range Robovac, I would highly recommend.
Well who would have guessed.
I bought this model after lots of research and deliberation. I can say I am very impressed by the device, it has saved me and the family a massive amount of time vacuuming the house. Easy setup and quick start. The only thing worth mentioning is this does not come with any magnetic strips and the mapping is of no real use apart from seeing where the device has vacuumed.
Ap worked on tablet but not phone.
Purchased through eufy but dispatched by amazon.
This is a great wee machine I just press go and it will vacuum all rooms where the doors are left open. It has three suction settings and I would suggest giving carpeted rooms a clean in the highest setting during the second clean and then going back down to whatever suits.
Slight problem with the ap it installed OK on an android tablet but wouldn’t install on an android phone (although I have seen it suggested that turning of mobile signal and Bluetooth during initial set up will help)
Very good
Very happy with this purchase- very good, it takes about an hour to clean the whole flat (5 rooms). I was a bit skeptical at the beginning, especially about being able to clean the corners, but it cleans everything!
Easy to set up, very effective cleane
This beautiful thing purrs like a kitten as it meanders purposely around my house doing what I can’t be bothered to do. It cleans up pet hair no problem, and leaves my floors looking lovely and clean. it was incredibly easy to set up as well. I love the new smart navigation. I had one of these devices before and it used to wander around aimlessly, but this one cleans much faster and doesn’t miss anything. I’m so impressed!
Not a dyson replacement but a fancy toy
Dyson’s little helper. Not dyson killer.
Happy with the experiment. I am using this to do unattended cleaning before and after weekend. Picked up lots of fine dust. But left some larger breadcrumbs like piece of dust. Can control with app and view the map. Cleaning is not perfect can’t compare with my main dyson dc40. Kids and guests like it. Only using for downstairs living room entrance hall and study room. Not very effective for kitchen-cleaning is not 100%.
Best home gadget. Suction surprisingly good.
I deliberated over getting this for about 18months. I then saw it on sale for 230. I’d considered getting the hybrid with the “mopping” ability but it was quite a bit more. So I plumped for this one. So glad I did. We have it docked under the piano. It has no difficulty getting out from there or back home. It scurries off and does it’s thing. I literally put it on every day for 30-60 mins and the downstairs is spotless. It’s actually more powerful than our handheld dyson. It picks up a disturbing amount of dust and debris every day. It is without a doubt my most favourite thing I have ever bought myself. We also take it upstairs and let it do it’s thing. The carpets are thicker upstairs so it doesn’t do as good a job upstairs but I don’t mind. The downstairs of my house always looks so clean and tidy now. It’s a bit scary watching it go to the edge of the stairs then slam on it’s brakes as it engages it’s no drop technology. It’s not noisy at all. Much quieter than our dyson. A friend of mine has a robovac and he said it was only good enough for quick daily cleans and a proper weekly vac still needs doing by humans. With this we don’t find that’s the case. It’s absolutely brilliant. So good on the edges too. Fascinating to watch it and track it’s progress on the phone app. We use it with Alexa and our 6yr old loves the fact that she can ‘do the vacuuming’ for us by one simple voice command. It makes her feel so grown up and helpful. When battery getting low it returns itself to its charging dock as well. If in doubt- just get one!!!
Why did I wait so long before buying a Robot Vacuum?
Robovac has changed my life! I was struggling with vacuuming because of bad backpain and sciatica but have wooden floors, rugs and several pets bringing in dirt on their paws and shedding daily. I had discounted robot vacuums before as I didn’t think they did a good enough job but this changed my mind. While not as thorough as my (heavy) Miele vacuum, it does a good enough job of collecting the dirt and pet hair especially if I programme it to vacuum daily. I get it to vacuum as we go to bed and when we get up everywhere is swept up and looking beautiful and the Robovac is on its base charging ready for its next cleaning foray. Only encountered two problems so far. One the dogs are terrified of it and one runs off to bed and hides and another barks at it – hence having it vacuum at nighttime (it is pretty quiet so doesn’t disturb) and two, the robovac can knock the rather light charging base off kilter so the robot can’t return. This was easily fixed with a bit of blue tack to hold it in place. You do have to empty the bin daily and I am always surprised how much it has picked up. And you do have to be tidy and pick up anything off the floor that might stop it from working properly, like charging or electrical cables, lego, dog toys, pet beds etc. You also need to think about the floor layout and if there are areas where the robot can get stuck but once you have done this it goes about its work happily, mapping out where it has been, which you can follow on the app.
Amazing
Love how it cleans for my disabled mother. Highly Recommended.
Amazing Buy
I was anxious if it worth the money but actually it does. Also amazing how little noise it makes… with TV on you barely notice it. Covers as much possible area it can… if it can go through it will go. Suction power it is really good the only weakness (but not an issue) as my flat is covered with carpet sometimes (few) may not suck a sock fluff that it stuck with the carpet.
The best robot hoover ever!
Over the last 12 years I’ve tried probably around ten robot hoovers. Only a handful have stayed and been any good.
Last year I bought two Ziglint robot hoovers. They were great until one developed a fault. I replaced it with another after reading reviews but it was hopeless and I realised there were no spares for it either. I then tried a different brand after reading reviews. But I discovered that they offered incentives like a second hoover or a your money back in return for 5 star reviews!! When I wrote a bad review they offered me more incentives to retract it. I refused to retract it. After that I bought another Ziglint (warehouse deal as the brand have disappeared) but that too was faulty.
So I started to look again. I decided to go with Eufy because they are made by Anker who make superb power bank chargers and leads – I own many. It was a name I trusted not to vanish within months (so many robot hoovers brands disappear and then you can’t get spares – I always buy spares at the same time as the hoover now).
I was going to get the lower level robot hoover but pushed the budget for this one with the mapping feature. It was extra money very well spent.
This robot hoover is probably the best I’ve ever owned. It works really hard to logically clean the house. It won’t just run over a room once but several times. There’s three suction ratings and even though the Ziglint had been looking after our house, the Eufy sucked masses more out on its first run around on turbo suction!
It doesn’t seem to get stuck like other hoovers on kids toys. It manages door thresholds no problem. It also has no issue with my black doormat and cleans it beautifully – every other hoover got distressed going round in circles on it!
The app is super simple. It’s not lost WiFi connection to date. It finds its home easily (again unlike other hoovers).
I like the way the app texts you if there’s an issue and even the way it talks to you.
It looks superb – robust and shiny. Everything I expect from Anker.
I was a little disconcerted by it having only one rotating brush but it looks like there’s an extra suction point at the opposite side. I see no issue with just one brush to date.
I’m extremely happy and would certainly recommend this Eufy hoover to anyone. Probably the best robot hoover ever!
Great for hard floors!
Love it! Best Buy this year. Easy to programme, have set it up to clean late at night so the downstairs is clean ready for the morning. We only use downstairs on the hard flooring but it manages over the rug okay. Anything the carpet would usually get stuck on needs to be lifted up though (thin doormats etc). We’ve got in to the habit of putting the chairs on the table in the evening so that it can get round easily but it still manages to do a good job without, just more faffy and time consuming. I love that it can fit under the sofa and clean under there! It lives under our tv unit so doesn’t take up any additional space. Only downside is having to clean the brush after every use and empty the dust container. It’s a quick job but if you forget then cleaning is less effective. We do have pets (cat and border collie) and 2 kids though so it gets quite a lot of abuse! I don’t think I’d use it on my carpet as it wouldn’t get in to the pile as well as my other hoover.
Well Worth A Try
Purchased this Eufy G30 from Eufy Life direct the set was simple it linked to my WiFi and I downloaded the app, the app is very good and has plenty of features and plus it prompted me to update the Firmware via the app and update the app. So iv just completed the 1st vacuum with this robot cleaner, and I have to say I’m pleased with the outcome, the clean was very good, it went room to room and cleaned my home all on one charge. The dirt and dust and pet hair it picked up was very good, it filled the dust container was full when I emptied it so after a first experience I’m happy. Much better then the Ecovacs that I had returned.
Easy hassle free setup, was amazed how good it cleans
Best thing I’ve ever bought!! Makes my home look amazing and keeps on top of the cleaning.
Hairs tangle around parts easily
Great little device, really saves me time hoovering and it’s surprising how much it manages to pick up each time (so much dust!) . However hairs getting tangled up very easily in the roller brush and wheels and various other bits so between hoovers i do find myself having to turn him over and remove parts to pull out all the tangled up hairs, which is tricky.
We love ‘Dobby’
Amazing piece of tech, we’ve named it Dobby and it saves me so much time every day. Brilliant invention! Love it.
I totally love this thing!
Basically, this is way better than I expected.
It works so well, is fun to watch when you want, and quietly does its thing overnight on a schedule. Every time it seems to pick up a load more dust and fluff.
I know everyone says you need a proper vacuum cleaner as well, but we haven’t used our vacuum cleaner since we got it.
Robbie the robo
I love love love this product – it just does its thing when I’m upstairs having a shower!! The only thing is doesn’t like is my bedroom carpet upstairs as it’s long pile but I can cope with vacuuming that with my other one. All in all great buy
Great help!
I was doing research and couldn’t decide on the robot hoover for months BUT this one is absolutely amazing. Really good help! I use it every day and it’s shocking how many dust and dog hair you can find in the bin compartment!
Use the app to get going then alexa and away it goes
Very good item does a great job easy to set up and.got a bit of string wrapped aroind the wheels took 2 minutes to sort and was easily dealt with.
I had been deliberating over getting one of these, and one day, in a mad impetuous moment, I did it. A little post-impulse-purchase panic set in, but I rode with it.
I have to say, it was the best mad decision I’ve made (and there have been many). Obi Wan Kleanobi is now a much loved member of the family, as he does the job I hate the most.
A word of warning – ensure your home is fully Robot Ready, particularly under those cupboards, where long forgotten toys, pens, cat sick and other things may have lain undiscovered for years. Or maybe that’s just my filthy house. On his first outing, Obi ventured under a chest of drawers and had to be rescued as we heard the clunking of him trying to hoover up something unmentionable. He was fine once we cut him free and apologised profusely.
The suction is great, and now he’s been over the whole of downstairs many times over the days the floor looks fab. With 2 cats, and 2 long haired females, there was a lot for him to tackle. I had to cut a lot of hair from the roller wheel with the handy tool. The manufacturers just knew.
Emptying is easy. Just open the easily detachable unit and tip in the bin. Make sure you don’t miss. Like I did.
It finds its way round every nook and cranny before heading back to its little base automatically which is incredibly impressive, and has been a source of much admiration from friends and family alike, to the point I think everyone is getting one of their own. My partner has just purchased one for his place, and Meryl Sweep is settling in just fine.
All in all I thoroughly recommend, and it will encourage you, if you’re a slob like me, to keep the floors clear.
This is the best lower priced robot hoover I’ve had. The app is really easy to use and you can see where Robovac has been. I have it set to clean when I’m out the house and it rarely gets stuck or lost. Does a great cleaning job – just make sure to pull any trapped/wrapped hair out of the sweeper to keep it clear. It can find the charger really well and the wifi linkage is excellent. Also it doesn’t just randomly go around cleaning – it does the entire room and house in a systematic way so it’s much more accurate. Easily pairs with Alexa so I can just tell it to start vacuuming from another room.
It’s incredibly quiet – even quieter than the roomba. You can watch tv in the same room without the volume having to go up.
This was a bargain and has made my home cleaning routine much easier!
So I’ve waited a few weeks before writing this review as it has taken a little while to get used to using it and into a good routine. Like many others I was quite skepticial about having a robot hoover, my husband still is however I’m now firmly planted in the Team Robovac camp. I have a dog, 2 cats, 2 kids and we also live near the beach so my wooden floors are always full of sand, hair and any other types of dirt brought into the madhouse by any of the troop. I was getting really frustrated with my Cordless Dyson as it ran out of battery too quickly so decided (after many hours of research) to go with the Eufy. I now have quite a good routine of setting it off every evening at 7pm. I have an open plan kitchen/breakfast room/playroom and utility off the side so it covers our main living space and now every morning I can walk in there barefoot and it feels clean! It’s amazing how much dust it picks up everyday, quite disgusting really! Don’t get me wrong, it’s not perfect, it can get stuck or caught in cables so you need to make sure things are off the floor that might be an obstruction but other than that I am really starting to get used to having it around the house. The dog hated it initially and would chase after it barking at it but even he has come round to it and now ignores it. I still need to use the Dyson in certain places so don’t think it will completely replace a normal vacuum but it certainly takes over an awful lot of the dailly work so the Dyson now only makes a rare appearance. I take it upstairs and let it roam around, kids need to make sure all the Lego is off the floor but it does a good job and amazes me every time it doesn’t fall down the stairs. Very very clever little thing! Is it worth the money? From a person who hates cleaning i’d say absolutely yes!!! My best tip would be to pour a glass of wine and put your feet up then let it hoover underneath your feet while you’re sipping height of laziness, perhaps so but a very useful household gadget!!!
amazing
have been thinking about trying one of these for a few years, and finally did it last week. Im pleased I did! the set up was easy, though it would not work on my pixel 4 after several attempts and lots of googling; but when i tried an old Iphone SE, it worked perfectly and linked via the app to my Pixel. the Robovac is really not too loud, doesnt interfere with listening to TV etc. Im absolutely amazed how much dust it collects (i usually hoover the whole flat every 2 days) every day for the first week, the dust tray has been full…! not much more to add, than to say try it if you are tempted!
Game Change
I’ve used this now for over a week and each day i am stunned by the job it does collecting dust and debris from around the house. At a certain time of the day the light would always shine through the windows and make me get the Dyson out and have to run it around all of downstairs. Now i just set off Robovac and let it do its own thing, although it is hard not to want to follow it around watch how its mind (navigation) works!
I suggest for the first couple of times though that you do follow it round and find out where any danger spots are before you let it run freely. these are things such as cables, curtains and other items that sit at floor level and would be sucked up. dont worry about larger objects, it will navigate around them, but smaller items you want to make sure Robovac gets a clean run without stopping so the first couple of times see where it goes. I had a panic when it dived under a TV unit where its like the spaggetti junction of cables but i have now placed a small rectangular box in front of the cables that Robovac now just bounces off and continues.
Unfortunately our sofa was too low for it to go under with ease so picked up some sofa risers off Amazon too which lift the sofa by a couple of inches. now it goes under freely.
If you can, choose a model such as the G30 with navigation, its so much better than the cheaper robovacs without navigation that do their thing in random directions. the way the G30 goes in lines and back on itself for any bits its missed is brilliant. You can see it trying to work out how it can go around something to go back to cover an area it couldnt get to previously. once it realises it cant, it updates the map you can see in the app and shows its as a wall or blockage.
all in all this is the best purchase i’ve made this year and with lockdown there’s been a few! for that reason i clean it after every session as i feel it deserves it! It comes with a handy cleaning brush and is very easy to empty. The filters can be washed and cleaned and it comes with a spare filter and a spare brush attachment.
this is what i’ve always expected from Anker! quality items with good innovation… just wish Nebula was of the same quality as Eufy under the Anker umbrella but thats a whole other story!
Adorable sucker!
Bought this for my smallish (under 40m squared) flat, and it does a wonderful job! Cleans the flat (including nooks and crannies, and under the sofa) in about 30 mins, and doesn’t make too much noise!
You can change the suction power from standard to turbo to max, or if you want, you can use BoostIQ to have the robot automatically detect which setting to use.
Cleaning is super easy – just pop out the dust filter and wash with water, and the app provides a convenient means of seeing how long before you need to replace parts/filters.
Get yours now, and enjoy an adorable vacuum robot! Just don’t forget to name it 🙂
Fabulous inventio
I did quite a bit of research before settling on this model from Eufy.
It is fabulous and picks up the dog hair on our laminate flooring really well. It goes under our sofa and does a good job of the carpet in our bedrooms.
Easily connected to Alexa and it can be set up to start cleaning via the app on whichever day of the week you need it.
Of course nothing can replace our Dyson Absolute but R2D2 as I call him just helps with the bits of pet hair and mess the dog bring in daily. Our terrier isn’t phased by it at all and watches it go about it’s cleaning as fascinated as I am.I would give it 5* so far.
Greatvl robovac
Always trust eufy. Already have an older model doing the upstairs and no have this on the ground floor. It maps out the room and is very quiet and quick. I hope in the future they will add tags to rooms on the map for zone cleaning.
Cool Stuff
Well made for an easy life, noise level equal to a small hairdryer, excellent suction. Best price you can imagine, go for it.
Wish I had bought it soone
I thought it was amazing straight off, but didn’t realise how much until it broke after 5 months and we missed it terribly. Service was second to none, great communication and fast replacement. The amount it picks up is incredible. It’s a bit slow and all over the place sometimes but I just leave it to do it’s thing. It gets there with great results.
Only downside is I wished I had bought one that mops too. I won’t hesitate to buy from them again after such great and easy customer service.
Amazing Robovac. I don’t usually write reviews ever. Thought I had to on this G30 Eufy Robovac.
I bought this vac after a rocky start. I purchased firstly a 15C max model as it was on offer. The vac was great and cleaned better than expected. It moved in a random way all over my flat until it’s battery ran out then went back to base to charge. I was impressed and loved it. However the WiFi connection to app just didn’t work so I had to return it after being helped by the fantastic support help desk.
I was refunded and bought a second vac. This time I went for this G30 model as it said it was a smart clean and not random pattern. So glad I went for this.
After easily linking to WiFi it went up and down my rooms and covered all the floor areas. It doesn’t go over the same bits either.
After it has done the main floors it then goes around the whole flat and does all the edges/ skirtings. The whole process took 51 mins before it told me cleaning was completed and it went back to charge. The 15C moved randomly for about 1 hour and 40 mins and even though my floors looked totally clean, this G30 does it in half the time and 100% coverage.
I wanted to write this as I was totally confused about which vac to go for.
Glad I found this and it is an amazing bit of kit. Don’t hesitate with this G30 vac.
I have set it for 3 times a week and can just forget it now. Well apart from the little bits of maintenance and it seems the app will tell me what and when I need to do.
Brillia
I honestly love my RoboVac. Bought “Dusty” back in November 2020. The first time I set him off I watched him like a hawk. We had a couple stairs he’d have to contend with and although having inbuilt sensors I still wanted to make sure there would be no accidents. Well Dusty went full pelt towards the edge, my stomach in knots as I went to try and catch him! But no need! He stopped on a dime to my relief!!
Once he’d finished and took himself back home I was amazed and somewhat shocked at how much he’d collected in his bin! The thing was full!!
I love the EufyHome app for the G30 too. Why I say for the G30 is because I also purchased the G10 a few months after and found you couldn’t see a live map like you can for this RoboVac…
Anyway back onto the app for the G30. Brilliant! Like I mentioned… love the fact you can see how the RoboVac is getting on by spying on it in the map view. Very handy when your wanting to go into the room.
You can either let the RoboVac clean on its own, set it up on a schedule, control it yourself (which is quite responsive with the controls) or do a spot clean, change it’s voice. Lovely!
One problem that I was having with “Dusty” was he kept loosing his side brush! Seems to have stopped now and couldn’t pinpoint what was doing it.
Would I recommend an eufy RoboVac? I would! I liked it that much I bought the RoboVac G10 for my hard floors. Some of my friends think its lazy and others think it’s a great idea. I just think it’s smart thinking.
Like the elves and the shoemake
It’s the first robot vacuum I’ve had so I can’t compare it to others. It doesn’t pick up every crumb but I know that in normal vacuuming you often go over the same spot a few times, so that’s to be expected. I love it. It makes me smile to come down in the morning to a vacuumed floor. And it goes under the chairs and sofas and navigates the dining room chair legs far better than I’d imagined.
Donald is fantastic!
Fantastic, and him Donald. I’m amazed how clean he gets the apartment, we have a Siamese and he keeps the hairs at bay!
150% recommend to get one.
Best Buy Ever! Eufy Robovac G30
This was a lockdown buy after being told by a couple of friends that a robot vacuum cleaner was a Game Changer!
How right they were! We bought the Eufy G30 thinking we would only use it occasionally but it has been a great purchase. Suction is good and it picks up so many pet hairs. It is simple to set up via the app. The only problem is we are highly entertained as we watch it magically clean up, so end up wasting time while we could be doing something else! A slightly annoying real problem is that I have bought some spare accessory kits (filters, brushes etc) from Amazon only to find the filters do not fit. Make sure you check with the seller before buying the kits.
Should you buy eufy G30 or eufy G30 edge?! Check this review
This is my first experience with Anker eufy comparing to my experiences with Dyson (360 Heurist) & iRobot Roomba (i7), it has quite a few positive comments from me,
1. It cleans faster. For sure it’s suction power is far less than Dyson & iRobot, but it gets the ordinary vacuum job done. So for one with concern on the budget, I would think eufy G30 is a good choice.
2. It is slimmer so it does get under furniture better.
3. I also notice that the speed of it returning back to its charging station (surprisingly) faster than Dyson & Roomba. Even though I’m not saying eufy’s app perform better than Dyson or Roomba. (In another word, eufy has a long way to catch up with Dyson or iRobot on its app and features it supports).
4. Comparing Ankar, Dyson & iRobot, Ankar has the best customer service that doesn’t require you to call them and waste your time waiting for someone to pick up your call. They get back to you within 24 hours. Which is the BEST among all. Dyson deals with your problem fast but only if you call them and bear for long waiting time. They never got back to you if you write them. iRobot is probably the worst among all my experiences with them all. You will need to call them and write them and back and forth several times to get things sorted. They are not so keen on solving your problem, they’re more stick to their own procedures is my impression. So this is another reason why you might want to consider eufy.
Next, eufy G30 or eufy G30 edge?
The difference is G30 edge supports the boundary stripe. Do you need it? If your stairway is like mine that has open edge, then please do get G30 edge. Because my G30 fell down! (luckily, I did catch it so no damage to the device). So before you buy G30, think about your home. If you have any place at your home that has an open edge, then get G30 edge instead of G30.
Hope this review helps you.
Impressive
This vacuum (now known as Hal 9000) is amazing. Worked straight out of the box, is impressively quiet and better at navigating than my (deleted for political correctness).
Hal was bought for hoovering up the dog hairs which it does without fault. The schedule function is awesome as I can get up in the morning and the floors are spotless.
Works with Google assistant as well.
So far so good, feels like a quality product (time will tell)
I have had a robo cleaner for a year, I got it very cheap off amazon warehouse, however just before the year was up, the right hand brush went faulty (amazon refunded the cost). I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. So I decided to splash a bit more cash on a new one. I tried 3 before I ended up with this (one just kept cleaning the same spot over and over again, one was advertised as a hybrid (not a true hybrid sent back) and one just would stop in the middle of cleaning for no reason). So I decided to go back to Eufy which was the make of my first robo cleaner. This seems to work very well,
Good things
Mapping is excellent
Seems to cover every spot
Easy to set up.
Feels like a quality machine
Not good
Has difficulty picking up certain things off the carpet in standard mode (turbo and Max work bette
Excellent reliable robot minio
While my Siri, Alexa and Cortana covertly formed a union and passed a motion to ignore my instructions, this wee guy has rejected the robot uprising and remained loyal to it’s owner.
I was new to this whole robo-vacuum game. I’m glad I did some fairly extensive research before deciding on Eufy and I’ll share my findings here. Eufy products seem to have the best suction, pound for pound, and, their 11S or 15C are winners in the least expensive ‘randomly bounce from wall to wall’ segment. Due to the sheer size of my mansion house, I opted for the G30 which has the same chassis and suction as the 15C but is one step above with some dynamic mapping software. There is an even more involved ‘laser/camera mapping’ segment but this costs quite a bit more again, and, I don’t want this level of intrusion/security risk- these robo-vacuums are all wifi-connected for scheduling, status reporting and remote control from anywhere on the planet.
I rejected the ‘built in mop’ segment as it sounds (from review vids) like more of a gimmick than a useful appliance.
The G30 is a great bit of kit. Simple instructions, easy to set up, quiet, comparatively low height for getting under furniture (Eufy might even be the lowest), still hasn’t got stuck or fallen anywhere, maps out a fairly detailed floorplan (I can see the asterisk legs of my swivel chair), has an intuitive mobile app interface, comes with some replacement brushes & filters (so long life seems to be expected), and most importantly, good results on my floors. The auto-suction level adjustment is audible and balances between power-use and different floor surfaces.
I’m not affiliated in any way other than being a first-time, paying customer. I recommend this as a very useful ‘fire and forget’ gadget that seems to be excellent value for money. Definitely more ‘R2D2’ than ‘T-101’.
Perfec
Wow, can’t believe how well it picks up, house is cleaned daily with no effort !
Noise is so low I can still watch tv as it cleans
Cats don’t like it but boy does it suck!
We have named our robovac Geoffrey (from the fresh Prince) and he has become part of the family. We have set him going every day and he comes back full every time. Our carpets are brighter and cleaner than ever.
Battery life is great and covers our 4 bed house (up or down) without issue.
Suction is amazing and the mapping is good to see where he has been and it is happy to go upstairs and clean too.
Very Impressed with my purchase and has only been stuck by the toilet once. Seriously good product.
Collects fine dus
It’s very good , quick silent and efficient, also collects fine dust the house is much less dusty .
Very good product .
Giro based system works well and keeps design slim
Setup was easy now navigates with organisation and what 60 minutes bumpy around is now only 20 min efficient clean.
The app is well laid out and very easy to use and also has access to spare brushes and filters.
I choose this giro based navigation system over a laser one as it allows for a slimmer design and also has less moving parts so therefore should be more reliable in the long run, i was skeptical about how good a giro based system would be but the mapping is accurate enough and it remembers it charging base position.
It would just be good if Eufy sold internal spares should they be required to allow for customer confidence on knowing the unit can be repaired if required
Amazing
What did I do with out this.
We’ve had Dusty for a few days now and can honestly say I love him, I ask Alexa to set him going and off he goes 40 mins to do kitchen , utility , hallway and living room. He picks up all the bits and ri say we’ve just moved into a new build that was deep cleaned before we moved in he picks up loads.
I’m really happy and he saves me another job after he’s done I’ll go round with mop. Definitely get he’s amazing, I have a shark hoover that’s now made redundant to the stairs.
Handy little gadge
Pleasantly surprised with this gadget. We have dogs and end up vacuuming a couple of times a day to keep the hair down. I didn’t think this chap would be able to navigate the saddles between rooms but it does, with ease. It always comes back with a full bag. I have it scheduled to vacuum early in the morning and when we go out. Only minor downsides are that 1. It is a little noisy when it is working and 2. The dogs hate it as they think it is alive!
Fantastic, a must have
Absolutely brilliant, I’m amazed how much dust it picks up off our oak floors. Connected to Alexa for convenience.
My mum has the G15 model which is good, but wishes she’d purchased the slightly dearer G30 as it works around the room in a methodical way, so its get every part of the room plus it talks to you! . Very cool. Very happy.
Well worth it, great cleaning and easy to use.
How did I live without this?!
We named ours after our old cleaning lady who died tragically spinning around inside the vortex cyclone of a Dyson. RIP. But we’ve replaced her with this robot so the story has a happy ending.
What do you want to know; it’s thin so fits under the sofa and sideboard, it’s cleaning is excellent, the app is great.
Features needing to be improved; it cannot go up and down stairs like our old cleaning lady could, and it cannot make tea.
Great service!
Bought Eufy in the summer. Love it! Use it every day . However, it developed a fault. Customer service was amazing. Had a new model within a week . Great follow up. THank you !
Dusty our robovac is amazing, he is scheduled to whizz around once a day and aside from checking for shoe laces and iPhone wires beforehand no extra effort is needed. He merrily goes back and forth, under the sofa and right round the edges. I am super impressed and our house is looking dog hair free, even the dog hair tumbleweed that appeared every day when the door opened has gone! Our dogs aren’t bothered at all by Dusty, our cat is an arse so hates it but she hates me too!!!
He is a great compliment for our Shark vacuum too.
My favourite bit is playing with the suction levels, voice volume and even language with the app while watching it map out where he has been. How can a vacuum be a cool toy?!!
Grea
I love this vacuum. You can set a schedule and it will start automatically. Suction is really good and gets into corners and under furniture.
Excelle
Excellent cleanervous. ..took out insurance on it….still waiting for documents.
***1 year update at the very end***
**Six Month Update at the end**
When someone hears that you have a robovac for the first time, most people fall into one of two camps; either;
Wow – that’s so cool, does it work?
Or;
You’ve got far too much money to waste.
I was probably in the first bracket here, curious to see if you could replace your Normal vacuum.
Granted this robovac is more towards the budget range in comparison to the big players such as Neato and iRoomba – however it’s a great little vacuum.
I’m constantly impressed by how much it picks up on a daily basis – I use it in my workshop/shop and is set to automatically start vacuuming at 7:30am every morning before I get into work. By the time I get in – it’s started and finished it’s cycle and the wooden floors and thin pile carpet are looking pristine. The image shows an average day’s work for the Eufy – this is roughly the amount that is picked up after each cleaning cycle, obviously it can depend on the amount of dust, rubbish etc!
There are every now and then, small bits which aren’t picked up, but if I was manually hoovering these areas would need several vigorous passes.
I’ve taken it home to try out as well, and my wife was so impressed she can’t wait until we get another for the house!! We normally manually hoover with a Dyson Animal, but the amount of dust that was collected on its first go through the house was mind boggling – I suppose mainly because it was able to get under sofas and beds where a normal hoover can’t reach – but less dust in your house can only be a good thing.
It’s Alexa compatible in that Alexa can start it, and stop it as well as telling it to charge – however sometimes you have to use relatively precise commands I.e ‘Alexa tell robovac to stop cleaning’ – any deviation from this tends not to work.
This may be a gateway machine into the world of robotic vacuum cleaners for most – as to be honest, it does such a good job (for the relatively low cost) I think we might be looking at a top end robovac for the house with added features such as multiple maps and LIDAR as we live over three floors.
Suction power is more than adequate for most situations, I tend to use it on Max power rather than any of the other settings because why not!
When it’s finished cleaning it returns home to charge with relative ease – after it gets used to your layout (after a week of use normally), it tends to get home a lot quicker than the first week of use.
Slight issue with this robovac is that it only remembers one ‘map’ – however I’ve put it on carpeted bench tops to clean and it does a perfect job, and the drop sensors means it won’t fall off, it doesn’t forget the normal ‘map’ either.
Some may say that the dust storage isn’t adequate enough and too small – however I’ve not found this to be the case – if a daily schedule is set and it’s emptied once it’s finished cleaning it’s more than adequate!
It gets better with each use, I suppose as it learns your layout, so don’t get disheartened if on your very first clean it doesn’t live up to your expectations. Give it time and it will!!
All in all a great little purchase, but the next one I get might be a bit more feature laden.
6 MONTH UPDATE:
This robo hoover still exceeds all expectations, it now comes home with me on the weekend when I’m not working, and hoovers the house. The second image full to the brim with dust is what it picks up consistently on each floor of the house – every day! It’s amazing to think how much this hoover really does SUCK!! In a good way of course!!
My wife regularly thinks this is the best thing I’ve ever bought and I don’t disagree with her in the slightest! I love it – so much so, I’ve given a few friends a demonstration, as well as shown them how much dust it will pick up and they’ve bought one immediately on my recommendation – I just wish there was a referral program – I’d be rich! Haha!
Honestly I cannot say enough good things about this hoover – it is just missing one or two little features such as Lidar scanning and the ability to block of certain area direct through the app (it has got stuck once or twice in the house – so we’ve just put some pillows down).
One last thing, and something I was totally surprised by, the floors in our house all range from tiles, to medium pile carpets – through to very thick (almost shag-pile) rugs – this hoover has coped with them all – even the shag pile carpet – which I thought it would struggle with), and it leaves nice track marks in the carpet, almost like on a football pitch!
*** 1 Year Update ***
So a year on, and all has been going really wellit’s been used everyday and I really can’t live without one now. I stand by the fact that this has been my best purchase ever.
However 6 days before it’s first birthday! The side brush stopped working (Error S3) and I was told to get in touch with Eufy. As I was still in warranty (by a few days) they sent me a new reconditioned machine out the next day, which, dare I say it, is even more powerful and does a better job at cleaning than my original one – which begs the question, should I have maintained my original one more – I’d say yes – so keep on top of your maintenance and clean the hoover too!!
I was told to keep the original hoover to use for parts or dispose of it if I wanted to – I’m going to see if the side brush error is easily fixable (although I’m guessing it’s not). I also had a new 3 month warranty on the replacement.
Eufy’s customer service was fantastic, and incredibly helpful, emails were replied to quickly and in a friendly and knowledgeable manner. I’d give 5 star alone for their customer service.
I would still happily recommend this robovac to anyone and everyone, although I have now upgraded to the X8 which is phenomenal – although it is more expensive, and this is more than adequate for the average user (even surpassing the new upgraded vac in a few ways, such as being quieter and having a slimline height to get under more furniture) – this G30 has now joined me back at my workshop and is happy running at the start of the day when I arrive, where it will stay for the foreseeable!
I have tried 2 other EUFY robots but this one is AMAZING as it has a map feature and also does the job in half the time of the other models. It doesn’t bounce from place to place and using the map feature you can see the entire area has been covered. It only has one brush as opposed to the two on the other models – I thought this would be a disadvantage – less cleaning power – but no – it cleans absolutely fine. I use it 2-3 times per week and love that I can put my feet up while a robot does the work for me. I highly recommend. Also – the seller – Anker – is amazing with great customer service if needed. I use Anker for my phone cable and chargers too – best quality products eve
Works well no fuss
One issue is it struggles with a thick sheepskin rug so I have to lift this before use otherwise it it sees this as a barrier.
Very impressive
I bought this to tidy up after getting a puppy.
I was amazed at how it gets in every nook and cranny. My floors have never been so clean, it even manages to get in an out of every chair around the dining table.
I would definitely recommend.
Highly recommended
Much better than my old Neato that cost twice as much. Picks up loads and hardly ever gets stuck. Smart enough to clean under furniture and between chair legs without getting stuck.
Very happy with it and would recommend them to anyone.
Had an issue but still 5 stars
All good from Eufy (Anker) on this little Vac. I have a Roomba which has been going for years but as ive used Anker kit for some time now I thought wed try one of these as they were on offer.
Does its job, quiet and looks the part. Sadly it had a fault but fair play, posted it back and new one arrived on 48 hours of sending it.
Contact all good, service good, new one is running perfectly.
Good stuff.
Watch the hover the first time you use it to see if there are any areas it may get trapped.
I use this product for upstairs.My furniture allows it to get under beds etc .The suction power is impressive.I stress that l empty the dust resovouir and clean the brush after every use .This is very easy.l am happy with my choice.
I’ve been wanting to buy a Robovac for years and only really delayed as I waited for prices to get more reasonable. But it was worth every penny and I can’t believe I’ll never have to vacuum the downstairs again! If you’re on the fence, go for it, you won’t regret it. Eufy’s products are such a reasonable price too.
Great improvement on early models, with increased suction, Alexa enabled connection via a separate app and verbal updates. Its slightly lower profile and sleeker exterior makes it a statement piece in and unto itself. Its floor mapping greatly increases its cleaning ability and makes it far more efficient in terms of battery use. Slightly noisier than the older model, but I think that can be forgiven, considering the far improved suction and better cleaning. Overall I think this is another big win, and wholeheartedly recommend.
Arrived broken.. and accessories felt fragile - EDIT REPLACED; excellent customer service.
edited .
Anker, contacted me and offered to send a replacement unit so i agreed to give it another go based on their their excellent customer service – polite, frenziedly and emphatic excellent. It’s why i would never go to Currys/B&Q/Homebase to purchase anything – their service is worse then a badly designed website. I simply cannot fathom how the ‘big’ brands are still in business – they are not even price competitive.
I’m glad to say the new unit arrived in good order (accessories still feel cheap plastic). However the roller ball came fitted in properly this time.
The unit is quite fun, kids love it, and i like the idea of it hoovering around when we are out of the house / overnight. The issue i had not thought about is you do need to clear the floor of clothes/ wires/ larger pieces of debries – which is fine, but it does mean you need to plan when you use it. You can set it on automatic schedule.
The suction is ok, it’s not particularly strong so it’s not going to replace your main vacuum cleaner. But it is a nice machine to do keep on top of the daily light clean going.
—
excited to trial the RoboVac; was pleasantly pleased with the main unit’s look and feel. and got it working fairly easy.
but then i took a look at the accessorise (side brush / roller ball) – and noticed they are made from quite flimsy/cheap looking plastic. In fact the roller ball was already cracked on the side and as such would not hold in place when the RoboVac was used. Pretty useless.
Will not be bother with a replacement.
Having had to do my own vacuuming during lockdown I soon got fed up with it (OK its a first world problem) and thought about a robovac. I thought they’d be far too expensive and some are at 1k+ but this little beauty wasn’t more than a normal vac. Honestly, the amount of dirt that she (called Eufy-Mism) picked up in the first few runs was astonishing and secretly embarrassing. We have two cats and live in the countryside. She runs around and hasn’t got stuck, digs out old socks from under the kid’s beds, returns to base to recharge and apart from scaring one of said cats, is perfect. My husband has slipped further behind in the favourite household rankings! Buy one, you will never regret it. Just make sure you empty the little bin every day, at first at any rate.
Brilliant…
honestly the best gadget I’ve had in years. Having a young family and a dog our living space is constantly covered in bits, crumbs, dog air etc. Used to come down stairs at the weekend and it would instantly upset me. Now the place is spotless, eufy goes on its little journey at 8pm for 30-40 minutes and nearly filled up its bin daily.
Highly recommend for any busy family!
Worth it!
I did not think a robot vacuum was for me, but after studying the market and when I saw the announcement for the new G30 did I decide to try it. It has changed my mind. This robot vacuum is definitely worth trying. It has all the essentials I was looking for:
– it cleans well
– its battery lasts long
– it is quiet
– it does not blow dust up
– it follows a smart and efficient path
– it saves electricity
– no random bouncing around or other awkwardness
– and with an affordable price
The convenience it adds is not important to me. What matters to me is that it cleans relentlessly, it gets into every possible spot and it now cleans all the floors far more often than I was willing to do myself with a normal vacuum. This has given me a new cleanliness in my house that I didn’t have before. And it uses less electricity overall than my normal vacuum cleaner does.
What I like about its design and what triggered the purchase for me was that its engineers have made it smarter, and yet kept the design simple. Where other makers go all out with cameras and lasers, requiring much processing power and electricity all for a high price, does the G30 look inwards with a gyroscope and a “touch and go”-strategy. This appears to have reduced the costs while it also makes it a smart, agile and efficient robot. I believe the G30 is a milestone design, which makes robot vacuum cleaners much more attractive than any of them before. The G30 was definitely worth the buy.
I replaced a cheap robot vacuum cleaner with this one specifically for the power of the vacuum and for the Dynamic Navigation. I’m not disappointed with the cleaning, it cleans up really well, however the Dynamic Navigation is nowhere good enough at the moment.
It’s mapping is sketchy and if it get stuck in areas, rather than marking them with a red mark in the map and avoiding them, it will try to clean them again and get stuck. It will only go half way around a circular table one day and then go back, the next day it will navigate around it successfully, the day after it won’t even go to that area so I have no idea where it will clean. The bump technology to detect walls and edges starts fine; finds a wall, but halfway along decides not to map part of the wall as solid so there are big gaps in the outlines of the rooms which probably doesn’t help the mapping. It’s really disappointing as I read that it was meant to use Dynamic Navigation to improve its mapping every time it cleaned, but it really doesn’t seem to be the case, with rooms often part cleaned. In fact, I’d say it does exactly the same thing as my 5 year old robot vacuum that had no mapping ability at all.
It deals with wooden floors really well, medium loose pile rugs pretty well but gets stuck every so often however will alert you with its voice function and phone notification, but this could be improved by the vacuum remembering problem places and marking them with a red dot/marker so they could be avoided while cleaning.
Battery life is excellent, getting 124 minutes on one clean, and the ability to have 4 different type of suction, with BoostIQ dynamically changing the suction required for different floor types it encounters.
There was a Firmware update recently, one of the fixes was to stop it from getting stuck which helped a little more, but it still got stuck in roughly the same areas (on the rugs) and still didn’t mark the map areas where it did get stuck so it will blindly continue to try to clean problem areas.
Autohome charging is a little clumsy too, it just bumbles around bumping into furniture and walls until it manages to find its way home. It seems to not use the map because if it would follow the map it had created it would be back at the charger in seconds rather than minutes.
I am in contact with Eufy support about the what the Dynamic Mapping is mean to do over and above their earlier models and so far, from their responses, it seems almost nothing, it’s a gimmick rather than a navigation tool for the vacuum, the ability to see a map in the application.
There’s plenty to like about this vacuum, small, decent size dirt storage container, really quiet, great battery life, good app with the ability to spot clean and change the suction type, ability to look at the map, good power for the vacuum, and see where the device is, but don’t believe the Dynamic mapping makes it very smart, in fact I’d go so far as to say it’s almost useless.
Smart mapping was a big reason for my purchase hence only a 3 star review.
Update: the firmware update seems to have made the device much worse. It now won’t travel in a straight line, it goes across the room at a slight angle and maps room edges in the map incorrectly as a result. It now also always get stuck in the black sections of the multicoloured rugs we have, seemingly like the sensors don’t know where it is, and gives a device error 6, device is trapped or stuck message. Again I have reported this to Eufy support who have forwarded this information to their product people. Subsequently, I have amended my rating to two star because now I cannot rely on it not to get stuck when using a cleaning schedule, which is particularly frustrating when it gets stuck over and over again in the same place it got stuck in before.
Update 2: 5/08/20
This is the second attempt at an update as the first seemed to disappear.
I’ve been in constant discussion with Eufy, who have been absolutely first class support wise.
They’ve worked with me to try to get an acceptable resolution and I can say they’ve gone absolve and beyond what I expected.
The crux of the problem for me is the navigation and the issue of stopping on small, dark sections of a multicoloured rug.
The mapping, I don’t think there is anything Eufy can do with this model. The L70 has a far more comprehensive mapping capability, but is more expensive. However the cleaning on the G70 is just as good as the L70 on that front, and cleaning is excellent on both models. In summary, if your expecting an intelligent, customisable mapping experience from this model, then you’ll be disappointed, and maybe the L70 should be looked at.
The black section issue Eufy have given me a workaround to, if not perfect. By covering the sensors on the front and side of the device it will happily clean these rugs (picture shown of rug pattern) without issue. It no longer thinks it’s stuck and does a great job. However, this is only good if the device can be used in an environment where a drop is not possible. It would be great if Eufy could enable this ability in software and firmware rather than me covering the sensors in tape, and if it realised that if it got into that area it could retrace it’s steps to get back to a previously safe area.
Eufy have taken all my suggestions on board and are going to put them forward to the product teams, but I can’t reiterate enough how fantastic their support have been. Reminds me of how Amazon used to be a few years ago.
I am amending my review again, however I am going to clarify it by saying it gets an extra star just for the amazing support Eufy have given which should be taken into consideration when purchasing a product. 3 stars for the Product and the extra star for the support, whom I would give 5 stars alone if I could.
So I had one of the early RoboVacs years ago and this one is a major step up in several areas.
First of all instead of bumbling around aimlessly the G30 moves in straight, logical lines. This is a much more pleasing way of navigating – and also more efficient.
The G30 seems much smarter overall. It’s not just the new navigation, this has voice capability (having a vacuum that can talk is pretty cool) and when it bumps into things it does so very gently. My old one would occasionally bang into stuff with some force – not a problem with this one.
Sometimes the G30 actually seems like it’s thinking – you get the impression of being in the presence of something smart, like it’s figuring stuff out. I like it.
Other new features include a cleaning history on the app complete with maps and timings so you can see what’s it’s been up to. On the app you can also set a schedule (time/day) and control a bunch of other stuff (cleaning mode etc).
Couple of other things to mention: 1) it’s very quiet. 2) It’s much slimmer and sleeker than previous versions. My old one weighs a ton.
All in all I would highly recommend this robot. It’s not the cheapest but it’s good value for the amount of features and how well it operates (only done 1 clean so far and it picked up a lot of dust!).
I bought the G30 as soon as I got the email of its release which offered an 80 discount which was great.
The vac itself looks almost identical to the 30c apart from it only has one side brush and the filter system has been upgraded.so any spare side brushes or main brushes will work with this model.
The new smart navigation is a massive improvement ,instead of just endlessly bouncing off every object until it runs out of battery’s .It now covers every patch of ground and records where it’s been as to not waste time going over the same spot. Once complete it will then clean the edges followed by returning home. In my house this takes 37 mins and I can be sure every bit of carpet has been cleaned. My 30c would clean for around 90 mins and I had no idea if it had done everything.
This model although advertised to be noisier than the 30c,I disagree. It’s really quite.it seems to move faster and it even talks to you.
The charging station is identical to the 30c.
It’s the same app as before with a few new additions and you don’t get a remote control.
My only criticism of this model is the new filters. The genuine filters aren’t available on the eufy website or amazon.hopefully this will change.
Overall I’m really happy with this model and hopefully it will be as reliable as my old 30c
