Bought this as an upgrade to my Eufy L70 Hybrid. That had a mopping feature, but had to change attachments to mop. I have had surgeries on both my ankle and rotator cuff and have other issues that make vacuuming and mopping a real chore.
When I received this, I couldn't believe the size of the box alone. I had to drag it in the house could not lift. Once I opened and took everything out piece by piece, it was easy to set up. The only problem I had (and this is probably just me) was connecting it to my wi-fi. I had a previous Eufy so I already had the app and just added it. It mapped my house in less than 10 minutes. I found the room divisions odd, but I think I understand why they did that. However, you can divide or add rooms as you like in the map.
I watched it the whole time it first vacuumed and mopped the layout to make sure where I wanted to change the rooms or put no-go zones. It did struggle a bit on my medium to high shag carpet rug in the living room, but my other Eufy would not touch it. It did stop and give an error message every once in a while and I would just push the go arrow on the app and it would start again. I wondered maybe I had it on too low of a suction power to I raised it by one and the thing totally trudged through that carpet like nothing. Still wondering though, why it tried to go up my recliner legs that are slanted. Had to laugh.
It did it's job well at maneuvering and lifting mops when detected carpet. Although I could not really figure out its pattern, I just should not watch it. I like the fact that the object detection works great so the bot does not touch the item. It comes close, recognizes it, then moves around. No more bumping into walls, etc. It went over whatever rugs I threw at it.
It does go back frequently to wash the mops and then continues. I realized in the app you can change the time from 10 to 15 minutes. When it was through doing it's thing, I did my own test. I took a Wet Swiffer pad and went over various parts of the flooring. The pad came out clean. I also wore white socks around the house for a while and I was amazed they were very clean. I'm convinced. The water in the tank was pretty dirty too.
Dislikes - Yes, the dust bin is pretty small compared to my other Eufy. Maybe has to make room for all the mopping addition. Would be nice if it automatically emptied, but not bad emptying after each use. Sometimes the ones with the bags, once you try to take them off to empty or throw out, punch out a bunch of dust in your face. It is really not bad doing it this way. I would rather have the water tanks that are bigger so I don't have to change those so often.
It takes a while, but I was watching it the whole time and won't normally do that. It did go back frequently to wash the mops. The battery had to be charged once during the whole cycle. It is peppier than my previous unit.
I couldn't figure out how to change a function in the middle of a cleaning. That may just be me and getting to know the functions of the machine. I guess reading the instructions might help.
Overall, I think this Eufy is great. I love the vacuum and mop feature, the customization and the fact that it tackles shag rugs. I love the lifting mop, genius. There is another brand that is popular that has the automatic dust bin, but it doesn't have as much power and it seemed like the object detection was not as good. I can't really speak for that one as I have not tried it, but there were some things I did not need (the dust bin) for over $200 more.
This is great in my book. Saves me a lot of pain. Plus, it is done at the same time, leaving me time for other things.
