"significantly worse object avoidance than than the Dreame x40 and L40 ... The best feature of the L40/X40/p10 pro ultra is that they have class leading object avoidance so you don't have to pick up your cat's toys or prep your house every time you want to run the robot meaning you can run it on a daily schedule which will keep your house cleaner. ... I run my X40s daily and they never get stuck on cables, cat toys and other random junk that ends up on the floor."
"The X40 is so far ahead in the object avoidance realm that it's not even a contest. ... I have my Dreame X40 running at midnight every day and never have to worry about it getting stuck on something or caught on something because it's object avoidance works so well, even in the dark and on all surfaces. ... It stays clear of cat toys, cords, socks, paper towels and all sorts of random household junk. ... the fact that I can run the Dreame daily will keep my house cleaner."
"The obstacle avoidance is also very good and I only have the pet in house setting on for pet messes and it recognizes my fake dog poop all the time and drive around it."

"I run it once a day, and mop a couple times a week. ... In fact, my wet/dry floor vacuum just died so its pulling even more work right now as it's the only real mop I now have, other than a Swiffer."
"My GOD am I glad I did. I had no idea how much I had been missing! ... We have 2 dogs and a cat, and live more rural. That means dirty paws folks, and a lot of them. The mopping and vacuuming has been no short of amazeballs. Not amazing. Amazeballs."
"The current champ of perfectly sparkling clean floors. ... Have 5 dogs tracking in dirt all day? Run this mop and go eat off the floor. That's how clean it is. ... Step aside spinny & vibration mops, this constantly clean roller mop is the champ. ... The mopping ability is light-years ahead of the Curv. ... The continously cleaning of fresh water is where is truly unique. ... You will be delighted and shocked on how amazing this E28 is. Its truly incomparable to any roborock. Get ready to start eating off your floors 😁😉"

"I’ve seen on the camera the poor guy making multiple trips to self empty while in one room but it’s cut the hair buildup tenfold."
"With three they can just make it to a full week for emptying. ... Life changing."
"the hair cutting feature on the dock means i havent had to get in there and chop out all the cat hair or long hair from 2x long haired humans."

"Love their app too, very simple and intuitive ... great app on the phone ... Rove app much more seamless and intuitive."
"Last month got rear ended by person on the phone. ... I downloaded the event clip from the mobile app and was able to show the video to the police on the spot. ... The other driver got a ticket for using the phone."
"and the app works well. ... No, it’s free to use. ... The app just allows you to view and share the video from your phone."

"It glides across our hardwood and tile like a dream, and the floors have never been cleaner."
"it was more for the mopping features with 3 young kids. ... mopping was most important and I don’t think it can be beat in that department at the moment."
"the S1 made me see that mopping had finally caught up ... roller mop is on par"

"Hair Pickup on carpet is better than the S7 MaxV but still worse than the Neato D7. ... I confirmed this by running the S7 Max V first (with rubber brush), on my upstairs carpeted room - that I purposely haven't vacuumed in a week. S7 Max V barely got anything and had some wrapped around the edges - as it does. ... For me yes but I say that mostly because of the tangle free vacuuming of pet hair and the improved hair pickup on carpets. I was tired of cleaning out the old one and so far with this I have zero tangles. ... The S7 MaxV had the worst hair pickup on carpets, with the stock rubber brush, of all the bots I ever owned. Tangles were minimal but it didn't do well taking hair off the carpets (it did great on the hardwood/tile though). Swapping out the rubber to the bristle brush improved the pickup but increased the tangle problem - it also created a problem with auto-empty for me a few times. ... It mops/vacuums significantly better than my S7 MaxV. Especially on carpets (especially especially pulling dog hair off carpets). ... That being said I LOVE the anti-tangle brush. 3 Months and I haven't had to clean the brush one time. It's literally perfect for me."
"We have dogs that shed a lot. It just got to the point where I was doing more babysitting of the vacuum than actual vacuuming."
"The S1 pro is a nightmare for maintenance"

"it is over-cautious with edges and corners, to the point that we occasionally have to sweep and mop manually under them."
"I just returned my S1 ... my thought was the extendo-arm for the sweeper and mop were not needed, they really work."
"But the X40 as a massive edge in corner cleaning"

"And it was a disaster on our cotton area rug, even on the lowest setting. I ended up with a ton of lint and a roughed-up rug!"
"My only real gripe with mine is that it’s not a very powerful vacuum at default settings. ... The 10R seems to struggle with picking up heavier, aerodynamic debris like rice grains or seeds, on its default settings."
"vacuuming and hair tangling is very poor."

"the mapping is problematic. ... I tested it at my home and had the same mapping issue. ... While it cleaned great, the mapping is not. ... The S1 was solid for about 30 cleans, then it just went nuts. ... Eufy said the space needed more obstacles. I tired cones places throughout. That didn help. ... It is being returned and I m trying a mova next."
"The map would constantly get messed up and I would have to make it remap my house every week."
"It was awful at remapping and I would have to babysit it for hours while it did it."

"Like clockwork they malfunction after the first couple weeks."
"replacing a vacuum that died (Dyson) ... I will have probably bought 2-3 dysons in that time period"
Eufy S1 Pro and S1 are the best for mopping 🙂
r/RobotVacuums • The best, mop only robots? ->The Eufy with roller mops (S1, E25, E28) are generally regarded as the best for hard floors. If you're on a budget, the Dreame L40 is the best bang for the buck right now. It comes with a rubber roller that isn't great for hair but you can upgrade the optional tricut roller that cuts the hairs. I bought one on eBay from their official store on sale for Memorial Day for $500 with free shipping. Supposedly you can call their physical store in California for an even better deal and they will ship.
r/RobotVacuums • recommendation for a person w long hair and a dog that sheds like crazy ->Thank you for clarifying; I must have misread while researching a ton of brands and models. I ended up going with the Eufy Omni S1. :)
r/RobotVacuums • Best Robot Vacuum / Mop Combo ->While roller mops are more difficult to maintain compared to spinning mops, their superior cleaning performance makes them worth it. The Eufy S1 Pro, S1, E25, Ecovacs X8, and the new X9 are all solid options. But if you want better customer support and more reliable software, Eufy is the way to go.
r/RobotVacuums • Robot vacuum that mops well? ->I’ve been using a Eufy S1 in a large mostly open space. It cleans great but the mapping is problematic. I tested it at my home and had the same mapping issue. While it cleaned great, the mapping is not. It is being returned and I’m trying a mova next.
r/RobotVacuums • Robot Mop options for concrete garage/warehouse floors? ->The S1 was solid for about 30 cleans, then it just went nuts. Eufy said the space needed more obstacles. I tired cones places throughout. That didn’t help. If the mova doesn’t work, I’ll try roborock next
r/RobotVacuums • Robot Mop options for concrete garage/warehouse floors? ->I’ve had an S1 (not pro) a few months. It cleans great. The problem has been the mapping glitching. It is being returned.
r/RobotVacuums • eufy Robot Vacuum Omni S1 Pro RDS or roborock S8 MaxV Ultra RDS? ->The eufy e25 and s1 are solid IMO. Eufy has a fix for the water drop issue and the s1 is very dependable. E25 can get up some stubborn stains from my 6 and 8 yr old. Under the dinner table and in their art area. I can also speak for eufys support being very responsive for their products.
r/RobotVacuums • Best mopping Robot? ->We bought our Eufy robo vac/mop last June, since then it's cleaned: 428 Times 317h3m 158380 ft² I would say that the investment was more than worthwhile.
r/unpopularopinion • Robot vacuums are expensive and a waste of time. ->I have a eufy that self-empties. Worth every penny.
r/CleaningTips • Are the robot vacuums worth it? ->Yeah those swiffer pad junk was garbage. Switchbot didn't do too well with the roller in my testing video. Oddly the Eufy S1 besides a battery failure has been doing well in my tests. Crazy it can pick up dried muddy foot prints.
r/homeassistant • For the tech enthusiasts who aren’t in the profession: how much more would you be willing to pay for a de-clouded robot vacuum? ->Seconding the Eufy S1. All hardwood floors here, but the mapping, vacuuming and mopping are all excellent. Also like the ease of maintenance with the very clear diagrams and tutorials built in.
r/BuyItForLife • What are the Best Robot Vacuum Right Now? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
