Great review of this model, thanks enjoyed the delivery and clear and concise explanation. Currently have an N8 Ecovacs in repair after 7 months (under warranty) at the moment, seriously considering this brand following your review. :)
Im still using this Eufy upstairs in my house and its just as good as day one, I currently have a Ecovacs t1 omni on the main level of my house its been about a 9 months in daily use as well as the mopping, so far I haven't had any trouble with it. I would like to be able to purchase a spare battery for it for when this one dies. so far I haven't found one which concerns me a little. finding the one for the Eufy is no trouble, also thank for your nice comment!
I really enjoyed your video you we're very clear and concise not speaking quickly at. The only thing quick about this video is how quickly I'm going to purchase one after watching this thank you for making this video. I wish I didn't watch it😂 I'm already figuring out the budget.
Thx for your reviews on Eufy products! I hardly saw any detail review like this on youtube! Everyone is talking about expensive robots. Eufy products are affordable in comparison to other robots. This will be my first time using them.
It was my first time too! Customer care seems to be great also! I asked a question about the LR30 , they answered it same day and also sent be out some replacement side brushes (4 in total) for free! As smart things need to be replaced in my home Il be looking at eufy to see what they have, so far I’ve been really Impressed by them
Thanks for your review, it was fantastic. I got mine delivered yesterday but can't figure out how to connect it to the apo,so been using it manually until eufy open I'm about to call them lol wish me luck😁 lol
Hi! Thanks for your comment I’m glad you liked my review… make sure you have the eufy clean app… I had the security one at the beginning lol, 😶 then just tap the plus + in the top right, hopefully they can help you if you have done all that already!
😊 brilliant video, I'm thinking of getting one of these, i have dogs and cats, with muddy paws. To know my home is at least somewhat clean would be such a relief. I'm also looking at a robotic lawnmower...another chore in the summer
I loved this review Perfect. I own X8 hybrid and when I heard you had that also, I knew I'd love this. I didn't have enough floor in my apartment to warrant the self empty, but no regrets. I would like to hear your thoughts of the two great vacuums. Also Eufy has a floor solution that is backorder now. I'm hoping for bantering with you on my post solution use. Thanks a billion!
Hey! I do think the x8 does a slightly better job than the LR30 but they release updates regularly enough and improve the performance of the lr30.. it cleans the entire upstairs in my house now. It’s perfect for there.. il definitely check out your channel! Thanks for the comment !
@SaraM-no3mp which model. I have two robovacs X8 and 11s max. 11s switch under it X8 via the app or hold down the power button for about 4 seconds. Not sure on others. My X8 docks itself and sleeps
Moving house soon (hopefully, bloody solicitors haha!) and I’ve sworn to my missus we are getting one of these. Been looking everywhere for a proper review and this is exactly what I needed, so thank you! We have two indoor cats so I feel like this is a worthy investment for the new place. Plus we’ll have less carpeted floors so the mop feature is perfect.
Congrats on the new house! It will have no issues with your cat hair! I’ve never had to cut anything or hair out of the brushes they seem to remain tangle free… though saying that we don’t have anyone with long hair, but animal hair -never had a problem, I should really at least post a pic of the mop! It has 3 water settings and I used the max setting to see how long it lasted. And it mopped everything you see in the video and still had a little left..
@@pointofmyreview thank you! Ah nice one that’s good to know. They’re both British Shorthairs so as the name suggests, they’ve shorthair 😅. It’s impressive how much capacity they have on both fronts considering the size of them haha. Again great video, subscribed and looking forward to more reviews mate 👍🏻😊
Congrats on the new house dont no if you did get one of these, but i got mine delivered yesterday from Amazon. i have 2 kittens Smokie & Enzo & smokie kept attacking it and the brushes he he lol & then when it backed into the dock & started the self clean I've never seen 2 kittens move so fast lol now she won't go any where near it haha lol 🤣😅😆🤣😁 so be warned lol
@@smokieandenzo hey! Thank you, moved in back in October and got the vacuum without auto empty initially just a few weeks later. Hahaha we had a similar story, they never attacked it, they were just super curious. Soon as it turned on they were off like lightning 😂! Now they follow it around the house from a safe distance watching it as it cleans. Ended up buying the auto empty features separately and it all works just as well as if I’d bought it together, which is pretty handy to know for anyone reading along who can’t afford the full thing straight away 😊👍🏻.
Have you had issues with the self emptying feature not actually emptying the robot dust collector? Mine goes through the whole process but the dust collector remains full.
No I haven’t experienced this, the only think I have watched mine do is empty, and come off the base as it’s happening, but it knows this , to me it looks like it’s repositioning and it tried again, successfully emptying
It’s doing great! I haven’t had any issues at all and once a month i clean out the filters and roller brush and wiper the sensors and it’s been perfect, it runs daily-every night in the main areas of my house and then I move it to the bedroom on the weekend .. all good so far
@@pointofmyreview thanks for replying! I know there is the Hybrid+ which comes with a station. I did wonder if you can buy that separately or not. But I think this will do just fine! My only worry is dog hair as ours shed a lot, you mentioned you have dogs and wondered how it copes?
@@omegasupreme6384 I have the one with the mop and self empty station, I have 2 westies with medium hair, it picks up everything it touches, you can also programme the vacuum to increase suction for certain rooms, so if you have your dogs just downstairs for example you can have it on high power, if you are worried about that, I have just seen there’s a x8 pro that also detangles hair… you could check that out also
Great video there, very detailed information. Just about to purchase the L60 Vac Hybrid and wanted to ask if it is possible to vacuum and then mop right after with these models. For example if we wanted both done once we’ve gone to bed overnight? Or would we need to add the mop pad manually to it? Thanks
Hi yes, you’d have to add the mop manually with that model, but I think you can vacuum and mop at the same time, so you could do that for your hard floors, I do think eufy have one that mops automatically lifting the mopping pads for carpeted areas, I certainly know ecovacs does, the eufy one is the x9 pro, sadly I have no experience with this vac.
Hi there, thank you for the detailed review, this was so helpful and better than any other I have found! One question if I may please, a couple of door thresholds in the house are approx 1cm in height, do you think it would be able to handle that or would it trigger the cliff sensor? Many thanks! 😊
I have a similar threshold and it works fine I think the cliff sensor has to be quite something like a stairs, but maybe if you look about on their website or online you might find more info about how high it can be before the cliff sensor is triggered
@Point of My Review Thanks for the review, I'm very impressed by my X8 that I purchased when they first came out. I'm looking for a second vac for my upstairs rooms and this one is right at the top of my list now, thanks to your review. I have noticed a little annoying "feature" on carpet that it hops a little going against the run of the deep piled carpets. Looking at your video at 14:52 I spotted a few spots that looks similar to what I get when it "hops". I've searched online, but no one else seems to have complained about this "feature" Please could you confirm if you have also noticed this and if you have found a way around this?
Hi! Thanks for your nice comment! I have noticed it’s little hops! But I think it’s just that particular carpet, and it’s only around that place you mentioned, it doesn’t do it on the rest of the carpet, we have much thicker piles and deeper carpet in the bedrooms and it does not do that, my x8 also hopped in the same place leading me to believe it’s just my main carpet, as again the x8 doesn’t do it anywhere else either, also I have noticed it’s only when it’s going back and forth, not side to side, that seems fine!
I have a yeedi vac 2 and it doesn’t hop. I haven’t tested the lr30 yet though although I think it will hop due to the weight. Yeedi is the same as ecovacs. My X8 and every single other I’ve tested hops apart from the yeedi
Can you also make a video on your Eufy X8 Hybrid as well ? I bought the X8 for my upper level floor And Eufy L35 for downstairs. Can they do every day cleaning ? And clean the whole house ? I have a big square footage on my house. Hopefully it works out.
Yes! Il try carve out sometime to do that for you! Your going to have the exact same setup as me! My LR30 is downstairs and x8 upstairs, my upstairs is a mix of tiles in the 2 bathrooms and carpet on the landing and 3 bedrooms, another bedroom has like a shag pile carpet that it doesn’t struggle with at all.. it’s amazing! I too have a large square footage house, it take the LR30 about 48-50 mins to total clean downstairs. I have a study I don’t like it going into because I keep the dogs out of there obviously I have to keep the door open, and the downstairs bedrooms have their own g30 as there’s stairs between the main floor and the other bedrooms and bathroom and rest of the house etc, so the LR30 just maintains the kitchen, dining room, pantry, lounge and sunroom as well as a small bathroom, And upstairs it takes the x8 about 40-45 minutes, I have LR set to standard suction except for carpets and rugs, that’s on max suction, as well as upstairs with the x8 is max suction, neither have run out of battery while cleaning, and also clean very well!
@@pointofmyreview Thanks for the detail response! How does the mopping works when you have rugs ? Easy to setup no mopping on carpet areas ? And how many times it returns to the dock to self empty ? I did not buy the self empty as it was additional 200$. I can easily empty out the bins myself. Is there a pause option ? Thanks!
@@Idkjk971 no problem! For mopping and vacuuming you can set virtual boundaries -for example- under a cabinet that has wires it will just clean up to that virtual boundary , and no go zones you can place over the entire rug or carpeted area, and it won’t mop there, the app is pretty good, I do think the explanations could be better as it took a bit of trial and error, but it’s 95% great! Mine has never had to return to empty itself- it just does it at the end of cleaning, it says the bag can handle an average of 60 empties and I’m coming up on 60 vaccines since owning it, so that will be interesting to see! And yes you can pause it by either pressing the power button on top of the vac or through the app.. the power button also starts auto cleaning when not using the app.
@@pointofmyreview Hey, I finally got my Eufy L35/L30 last week. Been testing it out for few days now. Do you have issues with it bumping into furniture when it is running around the perimeter? It’s been doing that to me. Bumping into furniture, tables etc. does a good job vacuuming but it is noisy when it bumps. Afraid that sensors might get damaged. The mapping also needs some updating. It does not show carpet areas like other robot vacuum, So hard to place no mop zones. It’s fast though! Just having bumping issues and sometimes can’t dock or find a way back home. Mopping part is good but using a lot of water even on low setting’s. I do not have to wet the mop as they stated. If i wet the mop it is a lot of water to mop with on hardwood.
@@Idkjk971 Yay you got one! is yours running full speed into the furniture?, mine slows down but it does bump somethings but nothing hard enough to cause damage to either the vac or the furniture, i'm sure you know it does have a bumper that when it impacts it absorbs it and tells it to re route, also make sure that the lidar sensor onto isn't blocked, make sure you have removed all foam blocks that were there in the bumper when you opened it, that the firmware is up to date in the app and also remember that the infrared sensors don't work great on black furniture or floors, for my mop I definitely have to wet the pad but I don't have issues with it using too much water regardless of the setting its on its pretty consistent, when you first mapped, you can't interrupt it at all, like pausing it or moving the base, once started you have to let it finish. you could always remap and start a fresh! I don't have a lot of experience with the no mop zones, but when I want it to mop I just telling it what room to mop rather then the whole house, as I have a open plan house and the dining room has tiles, living room carpet and then tiles again in the sunroom area, I just telling it to mop the dining room, then sunroom, and as it travels across the living room carpet it doesn't release water and the carpet doesn't get wet, it mops the sunroom before travelling across all floors mopping the kitchen floor and heading home to the base, maybe try set a no go zone rather then the no mop zone, that does work for me when I have cables under cabinets that I dont want sucked up or wet, and it never does it, let me know how you get on!
Firstly wow what a beautiful home! Got a couple questions if I may… 1. I find the X8 quite loud as they have seemed to use noisy wheel motors, are these on the LR30 more quiet? 2. Important one for me… Is the width smaller? The x8 I find to be a bit wider than others and struggles with dinning chairs. 3. Does the base empty the robot well? Like you I already have the X8 and G30. For a dumb robot I find the G30 to navigate extremely well but because of a very very thick rug it gets its side brushes absolutely wrecked and tangled beyond repair though. I have the entry level one so it doesn’t do the mag strips, it had to be relegated to upstairs only and it does very well! Thanks for a quick upload, I’ve been desperately looking for a review for this.
Hi! you can ask me as many questions as you would like! 1) I agree the X8 does have noisy wheels motors, it reminds me of a remote controlled car when I was a kid! the motors on the LR30 are definitely more quiet, like the g30's you cant hear them as it moves, 2)the width isn't smaller unfortunately.. mine used to struggle with my dining room chairs, but I found that if I move the chairs out a few inches it can navigate into and around them more easily., 3) it empty the Vac really well.. I was concerned with my dogs hair that it might clog, but so far nothing to report except that its great! I hated the strips for the g30 edge you have to almost stick them down so they don't curl up, they are magnet strips really, but are useful in certain situations for that vac, If you have any other questions - I I can il be more than happy to answer them.
@@pointofmyreview thank you for the quick response. I also have an email to get the £100 off and I'm on the fence. I feel like it would be a upgrade to the X8, i got that for £350 and can get the LR30 for £450. I may do it for the wheel motor noise alone! Shame it doesn't have a slightly smaller footprint though. I'm looking also at the deebot N8+ but eufys quality and in app experience I find is second to none. Also considering changing my ring set up to eufy but that's another subject altogether! Thanks again 👍
@@rob12841 SAME! i'm also thinking of switching to eufy, but I've heavy invested in the ring ecosystem, I can even unlock my door through the ring app so I'm caught, if ring neighbours doesn't make it to the UK im going to seriously think about going the eufy way! I have just finished the first mop with the LR30+ and I'm AMAZED it did a great job on the floors! also when on carpet and boot IQ pushed the motor to the max it is ALOT quite than the x8 on full power, it also found some plastic wrapping hiding somewhere which the base had no issue sucking out, ( I had a peek inside the dust collector to see how much it was getting )
Hello! Great review. I am looking at purchasing this, but it doesnt have the self emptying station. Do you think the dust chamber/pan is too small? I have a labrador who shed a fair bit; hence wanting a robot vacum. Also, how do robot vacuums go on large pile rugs? Do they just get tangled ?
Hello! If you want to purchase one and never have the self empty station then I would recommend the Eufy x8 this has a bigger dust collector and somehow compacts the dust and hairs more, I think it’s just the force of the suction, the chamber on the lr30 is smaller in my opinion- saying this it used to clean the downstairs of my home and as far as I’m aware it didn’t get so full it stopped picking up- I have 2 Westies, they don’t lose that much hair but it’s never been a Problem.. I don’t have any rugs but upstairs (where the lr 30 now lives) has extra thick and deep pile carpets and I’ve never had a issue with the brush getting stuck or it now able to move or vacuum, if your rugs have fridge I’d recommend tucking it under..
@pointofmyreview thank you for your fast response! That is all great information. The x8 is the one I was after initially, but I missed the recent sale at our local retailer, I think I will wait for it to come around again. Thank you again 😀
Thanks for the review. Really liked it. I hv 2 questions:- 1. Does it self empty the dust if mop is installed ? 2. Does it have cliff sensors? As I hv 2 floor house.
Hiya! it does not self empty if the mop is installed, as the machine has to back into the base to empty, the mop would block that from happening, but thats not to big a deal I find as there is that little plastic guard for the floor so if you say let it mop over night the dirty pad doesn't sit on the floor just on the plastic guard, which is easily wiped clean, and yes it does have cliff sensors, and they work great as expected! 😃
Hi, Thanks for the review. I was wondering how you have found this hoover with pet hair and also how do you find it does on the hard floor? How well does it clean it? I was worried the powerful spinners occasionally push things out of its reach.
Hello! I have 2 dogs and no issues at all with their hair, it cleans extremely well on hard floors, it has 2 brushes at the front, that in my opinion don’t spin fast enough to make things fly away, but if it did the other brush would catch it and bring it back into place.. also if it did manage to fling something away it would be in the direction of the next path of cleaning so it will eventually get it (my x8 sometimes does that)
@@theoddjobcentre6686 hey! They are doing great! I have a update video in the works. Or I have had them 6 months but stuff just keeps getting in the way.. I have discovered more things about them too.. all good! Hopefully it won’t be too long before I get it up,
I just ordered it without the self empty for cheaper price. Does it work best on rugs ? I have hardwood and rugs around the house and bathroom rugs in bathroom. Hopefully it will suck up well.
Hi! thanks for your comment 😃 I find it does pickup well on rugs I have, ( I dont have any with fringe or tassels) but with what I do have its great, you can turn on boost IQ so automatically ups the suction when on carpets and rugs, i'm not sure how it would do on light rugs /mats as I dont have any light ones,
in the video? I was following it around and I think it was standard suction it has a quiet mode and you definitely wouldn't notice it, I leave mine on turbo.. and I don't even notice it now,
It’s definitely quieter than the x8 but otherwise the same, great cleaning, including the mop, to me it seems like it moves across the floor a little faster, it really is great, I’d buy it again given the option
Hi! yes it does the edges first, there was a issue at the beginning - it wasn't getting close enough to walls etc, but they have since updated that and its improved greatly!
Hi! Yes it was mapping in that video and if I remember I don’t think I started recording when it was first going about the place, when it starts it does the perimeter of the room first and the side brushes clean the edges, then it goes back and forth filling in the room before it moves to the next..
yes I use a floor cleaner with out issue, it has to be water consistency though as I think after use and once dry it would block the little holes that dispenses the water onto the cloth
I'm on my second one of these with a third one coming soon as I keep getting the error 1 bumper stuck as well as error 4 roller brush needs removing and cleaning even though the bumper is not stuck and the roller is spotless. If the third one is the same, my review of this vac is its absolute rubbish. I've had 2 eufy 30C robovacs for well over a year and not had a single problem. This one however is really bad.
I update the software every time it pops up.. I’m sure you’ve tried that already… I haven’t encountered any of these problems! Hopefully I won’t! Mine is doing great so far!
Also they might give you the option of a different model, I have the x8 also - this is a great one also, no empty station but it does come in a hybrid model also! The x8 is fantastic too
I’ve only had one problem with mine where it just started not going against the wall.. but that was fixed with a software update, it has been perfect since
Other brands like Yeedi and Ecovacs have carpet detection on some of their models so the water is shut off when detecting carpets so you can vac and mop simultaneously.
Honestly, I do- in my opinions it cleans great, I use it at least 4 times a weeks, I do think the app could be a little more user friendly, but that again could just be me.. it cleans great and is really quiet, I do regularly check underneath to make sure the brush is clean and wipe the sensors when the apps suggests, but I do detailed maintenance of all appliances and gadgets I own.. Eufy are very good at offering refunds and helping customers if you get it and don’t like it.. But I would spend the money and buy it again,
@@pointofmyreview thanks for the response. I do prefer having a sepf empty bin but without the bag Do you know any robovac that self empty without the bag? I think shark is like that but we dont have it in australia.
hmmm, the x8 is the better choice if you don't want the self empty station, for my home they both can clean it on a single charge, ( if they do run out of battery they recharge and pick up where they left off) but you really cant go wrong with either of them
im pretty sure I said in my video that this would not replace mopping, it does keep the floors clean enough until you decide to fully mop yourself. the ecovacs mop spins and exerts pressure, it all depends on how much you want to fork out. this IMO does a pretty decent job, its not designed for liquid spills and getting ketchup off the floor, and as long as you wash the mopping pad it does provide a decent clean,
Hi! Yes you can.. when setting up the schedule you can select Auto or Room, so on Monday you could choose which ever rooms you like, and different rooms for the rest of the week.
@@Drazorig2 no it doesn’t have object detection… it if it happens to go over a cable that’s fixed - like something that’s plugged in - it does a great job of freeing itself

I've searched online, but no one else seems to have complained about this "feature"
Please could you confirm if you have also noticed this and if you have found a way around this?
Hi! Thanks for your nice comment! I have noticed it’s little hops! But I think it’s just that particular carpet, and it’s only around that place you mentioned, it doesn’t do it on the rest of the carpet, we have much thicker piles and deeper carpet in the bedrooms and it does not do that, my x8 also hopped in the same place leading me to believe it’s just my main carpet, as again the x8 doesn’t do it anywhere else either, also I have noticed it’s only when it’s going back and forth, not side to side, that seems fine!
I have a yeedi vac 2 and it doesn’t hop. I haven’t tested the lr30 yet though although I think it will hop due to the weight.
Yeedi is the same as ecovacs. My X8 and every single other I’ve tested hops apart from the yeedi
Can you also make a video on your Eufy X8 Hybrid as well ? I bought the X8 for my upper level floor And Eufy L35 for downstairs. Can they do every day cleaning ? And clean the whole house ? I have a big square footage on my house. Hopefully it works out.
Yes! Il try carve out sometime to do that for you! Your going to have the exact same setup as me! My LR30 is downstairs and x8 upstairs, my upstairs is a mix of tiles in the 2 bathrooms and carpet on the landing and 3 bedrooms, another bedroom has like a shag pile carpet that it doesn’t struggle with at all.. it’s amazing! I too have a large square footage house, it take the LR30 about 48-50 mins to total clean downstairs. I have a study I don’t like it going into because I keep the dogs out of there obviously I have to keep the door open, and the downstairs bedrooms have their own g30 as there’s stairs between the main floor and the other bedrooms and bathroom and rest of the house etc, so the LR30 just maintains the kitchen, dining room, pantry, lounge and sunroom as well as a small bathroom, And upstairs it takes the x8 about 40-45 minutes, I have LR set to standard suction except for carpets and rugs, that’s on max suction, as well as upstairs with the x8 is max suction, neither have run out of battery while cleaning, and also clean very well!
@@pointofmyreview Thanks for the detail response! How does the mopping works when you have rugs ? Easy to setup no mopping on carpet areas ? And how many times it returns to the dock to self empty ? I did not buy the self empty as it was additional 200$. I can easily empty out the bins myself. Is there a pause option ? Thanks!
@@Idkjk971 no problem! For mopping and vacuuming you can set virtual boundaries -for example- under a cabinet that has wires it will just clean up to that virtual boundary , and no go zones you can place over the entire rug or carpeted area, and it won’t mop there, the app is pretty good, I do think the explanations could be better as it took a bit of trial and error, but it’s 95% great! Mine has never had to return to empty itself- it just does it at the end of cleaning, it says the bag can handle an average of 60 empties and I’m coming up on 60 vaccines since owning it, so that will be interesting to see! And yes you can pause it by either pressing the power button on top of the vac or through the app.. the power button also starts auto cleaning when not using the app.
@@pointofmyreview Hey, I finally got my Eufy L35/L30 last week. Been testing it out for few days now. Do you have issues with it bumping into furniture when it is running around the perimeter? It’s been doing that to me. Bumping into furniture, tables etc. does a good job vacuuming but it is noisy when it bumps. Afraid that sensors might get damaged. The mapping also needs some updating. It does not show carpet areas like other robot vacuum, So hard to place no mop zones. It’s fast though! Just having bumping issues and sometimes can’t dock or find a way back home. Mopping part is good but using a lot of water even on low setting’s. I do not have to wet the mop as they stated. If i wet the mop it is a lot of water to mop with on hardwood.
@@Idkjk971 Yay you got one! is yours running full speed into the furniture?, mine slows down but it does bump somethings but nothing hard enough to cause damage to either the vac or the furniture, i'm sure you know it does have a bumper that when it impacts it absorbs it and tells it to re route, also make sure that the lidar sensor onto isn't blocked, make sure you have removed all foam blocks that were there in the bumper when you opened it, that the firmware is up to date in the app and also remember that the infrared sensors don't work great on black furniture or floors, for my mop I definitely have to wet the pad but I don't have issues with it using too much water regardless of the setting its on its pretty consistent, when you first mapped, you can't interrupt it at all, like pausing it or moving the base, once started you have to let it finish. you could always remap and start a fresh! I don't have a lot of experience with the no mop zones, but when I want it to mop I just telling it what room to mop rather then the whole house, as I have a open plan house and the dining room has tiles, living room carpet and then tiles again in the sunroom area, I just telling it to mop the dining room, then sunroom, and as it travels across the living room carpet it doesn't release water and the carpet doesn't get wet, it mops the sunroom before travelling across all floors mopping the kitchen floor and heading home to the base, maybe try set a no go zone rather then the no mop zone, that does work for me when I have cables under cabinets that I dont want sucked up or wet, and it never does it, let me know how you get on!
Firstly wow what a beautiful home!
Got a couple questions if I may… 1. I find the X8 quite loud as they have seemed to use noisy wheel motors, are these on the LR30 more quiet?
2. Important one for me… Is the width smaller? The x8 I find to be a bit wider than others and struggles with dinning chairs.
3. Does the base empty the robot well?
Like you I already have the X8 and G30. For a dumb robot I find the G30 to navigate extremely well but because of a very very thick rug it gets its side brushes absolutely wrecked and tangled beyond repair though. I have the entry level one so it doesn’t do the mag strips, it had to be relegated to upstairs only and it does very well!
Thanks for a quick upload, I’ve been desperately looking for a review for this.
Hi! you can ask me as many questions as you would like! 1) I agree the X8 does have noisy wheels motors, it reminds me of a remote controlled car when I was a kid! the motors on the LR30 are definitely more quiet, like the g30's you cant hear them as it moves, 2)the width isn't smaller unfortunately.. mine used to struggle with my dining room chairs, but I found that if I move the chairs out a few inches it can navigate into and around them more easily., 3) it empty the Vac really well.. I was concerned with my dogs hair that it might clog, but so far nothing to report except that its great!
I hated the strips for the g30 edge you have to almost stick them down so they don't curl up, they are magnet strips really, but are useful in certain situations for that vac,
If you have any other questions - I I can il be more than happy to answer them.
@@pointofmyreview thank you for the quick response. I also have an email to get the £100 off and I'm on the fence. I feel like it would be a upgrade to the X8, i got that for £350 and can get the LR30 for £450. I may do it for the wheel motor noise alone! Shame it doesn't have a slightly smaller footprint though. I'm looking also at the deebot N8+ but eufys quality and in app experience I find is second to none. Also considering changing my ring set up to eufy but that's another subject altogether!
Thanks again 👍
@@rob12841 SAME! i'm also thinking of switching to eufy, but I've heavy invested in the ring ecosystem, I can even unlock my door through the ring app so I'm caught, if ring neighbours doesn't make it to the UK im going to seriously think about going the eufy way! I have just finished the first mop with the LR30+ and I'm AMAZED it did a great job on the floors! also when on carpet and boot IQ pushed the motor to the max it is ALOT quite than the x8 on full power, it also found some plastic wrapping hiding somewhere which the base had no issue sucking out, ( I had a peek inside the dust collector to see how much it was getting )
@@pointofmyreview yeah 3 cameras a doorbell and ladder olympics is putting me off too 😆
@@rob12841 mine are wired in, but I’m not that impressed with the night time quality, also eufy have that dual doorbell cam which has caught my eye!
Are you able to select vacuum only without mop? E.g. I'd like to vacuum my hardwood flooring everyday but don't want to mop it every single time.
Yes of course, you just detach the mop, and it’s just a vacuum,
Who installed that flooring without a stagger between the planks? You should get your money back
they're tiles
Hello! Great review. I am looking at purchasing this, but it doesnt have the self emptying station. Do you think the dust chamber/pan is too small? I have a labrador who shed a fair bit; hence wanting a robot vacum.
Also, how do robot vacuums go on large pile rugs? Do they just get tangled ?
Hello! If you want to purchase one and never have the self empty station then I would recommend the Eufy x8 this has a bigger dust collector and somehow compacts the dust and hairs more, I think it’s just the force of the suction, the chamber on the lr30 is smaller in my opinion- saying this it used to clean the downstairs of my home and as far as I’m aware it didn’t get so full it stopped picking up- I have 2 Westies, they don’t lose that much hair but it’s never been a Problem.. I don’t have any rugs but upstairs (where the lr 30 now lives) has extra thick and deep pile carpets and I’ve never had a issue with the brush getting stuck or it now able to move or vacuum, if your rugs have fridge I’d recommend tucking it under..
@pointofmyreview thank you for your fast response! That is all great information. The x8 is the one I was after initially, but I missed the recent sale at our local retailer, I think I will wait for it to come around again. Thank you again 😀
Please show the map. I was unable to get a map. Thank you.
Thanks for the review. Really liked it.
I hv 2 questions:-
1. Does it self empty the dust if mop is installed ?
2. Does it have cliff sensors? As I hv 2 floor house.
Hiya! it does not self empty if the mop is installed, as the machine has to back into the base to empty, the mop would block that from happening, but thats not to big a deal I find as there is that little plastic guard for the floor so if you say let it mop over night the dirty pad doesn't sit on the floor just on the plastic guard, which is easily wiped clean, and yes it does have cliff sensors, and they work great as expected! 😃
Hi, Thanks for the review. I was wondering how you have found this hoover with pet hair and also how do you find it does on the hard floor? How well does it clean it? I was worried the powerful spinners occasionally push things out of its reach.
Hello! I have 2 dogs and no issues at all with their hair, it cleans extremely well on hard floors, it has 2 brushes at the front, that in my opinion don’t spin fast enough to make things fly away, but if it did the other brush would catch it and bring it back into place.. also if it did manage to fling something away it would be in the direction of the next path of cleaning so it will eventually get it (my x8 sometimes does that)
@@pointofmyreview How's the washing machine doing by the way??? And that looks easier than hoovering haha
@@theoddjobcentre6686 hey! They are doing great! I have a update video in the works. Or I have had them 6 months but stuff just keeps getting in the way.. I have discovered more things about them too.. all good! Hopefully it won’t be too long before I get it up,
I just ordered it without the self empty for cheaper price. Does it work best on rugs ? I have hardwood and rugs around the house and bathroom rugs in bathroom. Hopefully it will suck up well.
Hi! thanks for your comment 😃 I find it does pickup well on rugs I have, ( I dont have any with fringe or tassels) but with what I do have its great, you can turn on boost IQ so automatically ups the suction when on carpets and rugs, i'm not sure how it would do on light rugs /mats as I dont have any light ones,
Could you update one when it mops the floors
Im travelling for the next week but when im home I will!
u said its quiet but it sounds mighty loud
in the video? I was following it around and I think it was standard suction it has a quiet mode and you definitely wouldn't notice it, I leave mine on turbo.. and I don't even notice it now,
So how does the performance compare to X8 hybrid?
It’s definitely quieter than the x8 but otherwise the same, great cleaning, including the mop, to me it seems like it moves across the floor a little faster, it really is great, I’d buy it again given the option
Does the x8 map out also ?
@@christopherhawthorne7457 yup, it makes a map using the LiDAR Scanner on top of the machine
Do you know if it goes around all the edges as part of the cleaning cycle, thats my favourite function of the 30C (Edge Mode). thanks
Hi! yes it does the edges first, there was a issue at the beginning - it wasn't getting close enough to walls etc, but they have since updated that and its improved greatly!
@@pointofmyreview ah perfect, thanks for the quick response!
I want to buy one. Can you recommend me this type? I have two cats.
I have 2 dogs, it has no problem, I recommend this, there’s probably other videos with animal hair tests you could look up?
I noticed its not going right to the edge of the walls is that because its mapping? Will it go right to the edge...
Hi! Yes it was mapping in that video and if I remember I don’t think I started recording when it was first going about the place, when it starts it does the perimeter of the room first and the side brushes clean the edges, then it goes back and forth filling in the room before it moves to the next..
@@pointofmyreview Great thanks I just ordered it :)
Have you try using a scent on the water tank to improve the smell?
yes I use a floor cleaner with out issue, it has to be water consistency though as I think after use and once dry it would block the little holes that dispenses the water onto the cloth
I'm on my second one of these with a third one coming soon as I keep getting the error 1 bumper stuck as well as error 4 roller brush needs removing and cleaning even though the bumper is not stuck and the roller is spotless. If the third one is the same, my review of this vac is its absolute rubbish. I've had 2 eufy 30C robovacs for well over a year and not had a single problem. This one however is really bad.
I update the software every time it pops up.. I’m sure you’ve tried that already… I haven’t encountered any of these problems! Hopefully I won’t! Mine is doing great so far!
Also they might give you the option of a different model, I have the x8 also - this is a great one also, no empty station but it does come in a hybrid model also! The x8 is fantastic too
Is this better than the x8 hybrid?
In the way it self empties, other then that they are basically the same
Thanks for the prompt reply, just bought the x8 hybrid as I got it for a good deal.
How reliable is it tho?
I’ve only had one problem with mine where it just started not going against the wall.. but that was fixed with a software update, it has been perfect since
How do you keep it from mopping the rug/carpet?
You can add a no go zone / no mop zone or a virtual barrier via the app, to avoid rugs and carpets, it works quite well!
Other brands like Yeedi and Ecovacs have carpet detection on some of their models so the water is shut off when detecting carpets so you can vac and mop simultaneously.
Hi. Does anyone what to do with the following error msg: unable to collect dust, remove the mop manually.
Yes the mop accessory is attached, check on the bottom under the dust collector and remove the attachment, 2 push buttons on the side
@@pointofmyreview awesome thanks 🙏
Do you still rate this?
Honestly, I do- in my opinions it cleans great, I use it at least 4 times a weeks, I do think the app could be a little more user friendly, but that again could just be me.. it cleans great and is really quiet, I do regularly check underneath to make sure the brush is clean and wipe the sensors when the apps suggests, but I do detailed maintenance of all appliances and gadgets I own..
Eufy are very good at offering refunds and helping customers if you get it and don’t like it..
But I would spend the money and buy it again,
Will it work without putting a bag?
It won’t self empty, but you can always empty it yourself, or just buy the one that doesn’t have the self empty base.
@@pointofmyreview thanks for the response. I do prefer having a sepf empty bin but without the bag Do you know any robovac that self empty without the bag? I think shark is like that but we dont have it in australia.
@@melvinnarciso4739 off the top of my head I think some of the roborock ones do… I think…
Which is your favourite? I was looking at the X8
hmmm, the x8 is the better choice if you don't want the self empty station, for my home they both can clean it on a single charge, ( if they do run out of battery they recharge and pick up where they left off) but you really cant go wrong with either of them
the mopping revisions of the robots are a joke. gimmick. DO NOT BUY the mopping models.
im pretty sure I said in my video that this would not replace mopping, it does keep the floors clean enough until you decide to fully mop yourself. the ecovacs mop spins and exerts pressure, it all depends on how much you want to fork out. this IMO does a pretty decent job, its not designed for liquid spills and getting ketchup off the floor, and as long as you wash the mopping pad it does provide a decent clean,
Question, with the schedule system can you select each room to do for that day only? Etc Monday living room/kitchen Wednesday bedroom 1/2.
Hi! Yes you can.. when setting up the schedule you can select Auto or Room, so on Monday you could choose which ever rooms you like, and different rooms for the rest of the week.
@@pointofmyreview thanks, lastly does it have object detection like the other high end vacs to avoid wires and socks?
@@Drazorig2 no it doesn’t have object detection… it if it happens to go over a cable that’s fixed - like something that’s plugged in - it does a great job of freeing itself
