What can you expect when using this innovative eufy robot vacuum and mop? In the simplest terms, it cleans your floors with a press of a button. When you set it up and turn it on (which is very easy, according to our tester), the machine automatically maps your home and stores that map in a user-friendly app, allowing you to control and modify everything from scheduling, spot cleaning, zone cleaning, and more. You can set “off-limits” areas too, so the machine will keep its distance from, say, the top of the stairs, a kids’ play rug, or your furry friend’s safe space. And no worries if you aren’t super tech-savvy: our tester found the app to be intuitive and easy-to-use, so you’ll feel like an expert in no time. Another feature our tester appreciated was the vacuum’s quiet operation. If you have animals that run and hide from loud noises, you may consider this choice to be a good (additional) companion for your home. Rest assured, the machine also speaks when it’s turned on or off, or even when it pauses, so you’ll never have to second guess if your machine is running. By nature, robot vacuums and mops don’t have the same judgment as humans do when it comes to applying multiple passes over certain spots, or for noticing when a particular spot on the floor feels sticky or in need of extra attention from a steam cleaner or traditional vacuum cleaner. Still, a robot vacuum can be a great boost to your cleaning toolkit, and is typically a simple way to maintain your floors and stretch out time in between those deep cleans. And the fact that this one is also a mop is a major bonus. If you’ve been eyeing a robot vacuum to make your cleaning routine easier, you’ll definitely want to snag the powerful eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid while it’s on sale.
