Who it is for:
Buyers seeking to squeeze the longest function menu out of a sub-$1,000 funds ought to look to Eufy’s latest flagship mannequin. With small impediment avoidance and a completely self-sufficient mopping system, the X10 Professional Omni is far more autonomous than the similarly-priced Roomba Combo j7+ or Roborock Q8 Max+. The X10 Professional Omni has wonderful battery life even when utilizing its highest suction mode, making it supreme for tackling a lot of sq. footage or a number of tales while not having to cost.
If your property is something like senior purchasing reporter Leah Stodart’s — the place a chaotic underbed storage scenario and rogue extension cords make it tough to run many robotic vacuums once you’re not residence — you may need to prioritize AI-powered small impediment avoidance, like Eufy has given the X10 Professional Omni.
Why we picked this:
Eufy’s CES 2024 contribution must be costlier than it’s. To not be confused with the (much less spectacular, costlier) Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni, the Eufy X10 Professional Omni is the model’s first self-emptying hybrid mannequin that additionally self-refills the water tank and self-washes and dries the mopping pads, all inside that very same self-empty dock. That totally self-sufficient mopping system is a function we have seen earlier than, however one we have by no means actually seen earlier than under $1,000.
Whereas its twin spinning mopping pads are distinctive scrubbers, Eufy’s carpet cleansing deserves equal consideration. On paper, 8,000 Pa of suction is beastly at any worth level. Throughout in-home testing, it efficiently cleared a thick, purposefully-spilled heap of rice from a medium pile runner and soil from a flat weave rug. It solely struggled on deep cleansing spilled flour, however a powdery spill should not be a standard prevalence.
Stodart got here throughout one quirk that hinders Eufy’s spectacular suction energy from cleansing to its full potential. Its impediment avoidance digital camera was working so arduous to not get caught that it mistook a small fluffy bathtub mat for clothes and gave up on one part of the toilet all collectively, leaving strewn kitty litter untouched. Sadly, Eufy’s app does not allow you to dismiss a perceived impediment as “incorrect,” so the bathtub mat wanted to be moved.
