Performance

For such a small vacuum, it’s packing a powerful punch. The Anker Eufy RoboVac has 1300Pa of suction power, with a triple-filter system. Three side brushes underneath feed the roomba dust and dirt, while staying relatively quiet your sleeping kids won’t hear it. And with 100 mins of run time, it can clean at least two rooms before retreating to its charging dock to recharge.

It does have a harder time on very thick, shag carpeting, however. Its suction power is good on flatter carpet, but just can’t reach the deepest roots. Keep it on bare floors and thin carpets. And if pet hair is a concern, we recommend the Dyson Animal 2.

Design

One look at the Anker Eufy Robovac and you’ll see it isn’t your traditional vacuum cleaner like the Bissell Cleanview or Eureka PowerSpeed Lite Vacuum Cleaner; after all, they aren’t robot vacuums. With a dimension of 12.8 x 12.8 x 2.83 inches, it’s very small—so small it can fit underneath couches and chairs. It has a tempered glass-top for protection, accompanied by a small power button. With the remote control, it’s very simple to set schedules and cleaning modes since it does not have Wi Fi connectivity.

Value

If you were hoping to streamline your smart home with a robot vacuum, the Anker Eufy RoboVac is definitely the way to go. Sure, it won’t replace traditional vacuums, but it’s an affordable robot, unlike the iRobot Roomba 960. More importantly, it’ll save time vacuuming at least one or two rooms. It’s one of those devices you set and forget, only ever emptying it out occasionally. And in this day and age, time better spent somewhere else is invaluable. But if you prefer traditional vacuuming, the Shark Navigator Vacuum Cleaner is a good alternative.

Anker Eufy RoboVac Review Wrap Up

While the Anker Eufy RoboVac isn’t a superstar on thick carpeting, it’s more at home with bare floors and flat carpeting. Its suction power is surprisingly good, thanks to its 1300Pa of suction and triple-filter system, and a 100 minute battery is pretty good, too. For someone on a budget, it’s perfect as a set-and-forget device.
