Eufy - BoostIQ RoboVac 11S (Slim)

I love my refurbished Eufy 11S - it’s not smart, it doesn’t empty itself, it gets tangled in cords, but it’s quiet and cheap. Like, less than $100.

Roombas were good. The problem was there were many equally good alternatives that were cheaper. My first eufy was half the price of the equivalent Roomba and just as good. Bought my second eufy and the first is still rocking as the basement cleaner. New one has all the bells and whistles of a roomba and maybe 30-40% cheaper.

I have had my Eufy for four years. I do not believe robovacs replace real vacuuming but they sure help. Mine goes under dressers and shelves that are too heavy to move except once in a blue moon during a real deep clean, so it gets some stuff I would miss.

Here is the one I have but it’s not available now. Maybe you could find a similar one (there seem to be companion models listed with this one on Amazon but they cost more). My carpet is actually high pile and it does fine. I vacuum with a real vacuum every two weeks. eufy BoostIQ RoboVac 11S (Slim), Robot Vacuum Cleaner, Super-Thin,Powerful Suction, Quiet, Self-Charging Robotic Vacuum Cleaner, Cleans Hard Floors to Medium-Pile Carpets

I ended up going over to eufy and paying $69 for a refurbished 11s Max. I have a first gen 11, and while it is now struggling with the mysterious front bumper is stuck error, that seems like a relatively easy fix. Other than that most of the time it's still working just fine. It's sucked up a dead mouse last week. Or at least I hope the mouse was dead. So it's got enough suction for me. So instead of trying to navigate the confusing Prime deals, I just bought something for a price that if it dies in a year I don't care

Its for basic cleaning and mopping for a 1000 sq ft flat. I am confused between ilife v3s max - I like that they have no roller brush in this model. Less parts to replace. ilife a20 - comes with lidar for the same price as v3s max plus higher suction power Dream D9 Eufy L60 Hybrid. - I had a eufy 11+ before which ran for 7 years. I have to give up on this because i cannot find replacement brushes anymore. I just want to buy a model that has decent service center support and easy spare part availaibility. Any recommendations or inputs would be appreciated.

Honestly the reviews look good but I am not sure about the performance. You should consider narwal freo, that one has good reviews. I ended up buying the ilife v3max and I do not recommend it. My eufy 11+ was way better

So my setup for 4 cats and a dog. 1500sq ft. Hardwood and tile, no carpet. Upstairs: iRobot i4 Roomba. Downstairs: iRobot 980. Downstairs: iRobot M6 mop. My Roombas (iRobots) are great to me because they run where I can't easily reach. They go under things (sofa, bookshelves, beds, etc). They run when I'm not home. They keep the "tumbleweeds" under control. When you get the map dialed in and your furniture / cables organized so they don't get hung up, they're great. Are they perfect? No. But can I tell if they don't run for a day? Absolutely. Whole house: Dyson Gen5detect. I *despise* this thing. Purchased in November 2023 when it was their top of the line product. I've had nothing but issues. Warranty replaced the whole machine in May 2025. This one is even worse; feels like a second cheaper run of the product. It even sounds cheaper when it runs (higher pitch), feels fragile, just doesn't suck as well as the first one, auto detect doesn't work, it won't switch to boost when running on auto., pushes around the dog hair... the list goes on and on. It's being replaced AGAIN under warranty as of August 2025. Robots run twice a day; mop runs once a day. Dyson is for every 3-4 days to catch what was missed and the stairs. At this point, my robots are doing the heavy lifting and we're looking at Sebos. Seems like bagless just will not last as long. Full stop. For the robots, yes bin size is important but HEPA is more important to me due to dander. You want something that will pack the bin full. My 980 thinks it's "full" when it's about 1/4 to half full because pet hair is fluffy and it triggers the full bin sensor. They fixed this on the i4 which will PACK that bin to bursting before it triggers full bin. Run time is less important; most robots have recharge and resume now if they map. I've also had an Eufy (I think it was an 11S?) For $200 I was impressed. I just missed the smart map; it was an old style where it bumps and then pivots to cover an area. It was annoying to watch after a "smart" robot vac. I've gifted these for housewarming gifts and the recipients (who also have pets) like them. I hope this helps.

I only look at robots every 5 years or so. I test them a ridiculous amount during the return period. Any doubt, and it goes back. First one was a Neato in 2016 which already had Lidar and worked really well. Didn't bother to fix the lidar when it broke (stupid call in the end), and bought a cheap Eufy 11S which worked, and still does, although it's dumb as a rock, kept getting stuck on my furniture so after 5 years of frustration went with a CurvX, no issues with that but I figure my furniture is hard on robots as I had to put in 3 small no go zones even with that one. Then got tired of moving the whole thing between floors, and that's when I went with the Saros 10R, honestly if they would have simply swapped mine which had issues I would have been happy with that, but they could only offer a refund/new order. If you're in the EU, the DJI is still on sale through Amazon Germany, don't bother looking at the A or P though - pricing is ridiculous.

I have a Eufy 11S which works well. Have had it for years. On my third battery.

We have the Eufy 11S which is very effective but isn’t programmable short of a few basic functions. At the end of the day it works but not like a regular machine. My grandson loves playing with it so in a house with that many curious kids it may be treated more like a toy than a machine. I use it, a plug in Shark and Bissel stick. The Bissel was a replacement for a model they recalled and I got it for free with the promise to properly dispose of the old battery.

I can vouch for the 11S. I’m okay with a vacuum that randomly bumps into things and daily emptying so something simple like that is perfect for me. It keeps me from leaving things on the floor astray (socks, loose cords,etc) so it kind of makes me keep a neat floor

I just got the L60 SES too. My mum and i both have the old 11s which have which have both worked solidly to 5 years now so hoping i have the same luck again. The hair cutting from the brush is amazing. The amount of cat hair it picks up is insane and barely have to touch it for maintenance.
