    This robovac is an excellent value. I paid $150 at Walmart almost 1 year ago and am very pleased. Your review is spot on. Cords on the floor are a problem for the robovac, but I simply bundle them, move them, or place a barrier in front of them. I scheduled my robovac to start every day at 2:00 AM and vacuum downstairs while everyone is asleep upstairs. It is like having fairies vacuuming, but better because it is real.

    My Roomba nicked the heck out of my hardwood floors, it took a few months to materialize but I'm noticing dings and dents all over my house, inherent of robot vacs. Frayed fringes on throw rugs as well. When transitioning from hard to soft floor rugs. The whirling spinners snag beneath the edge redirecting it.

      *I know that all of my questions are not ALL relatable possibly with this video in particular BUT I NEED help/advice please and thank you*
      Will the Eufy 25c AND the Roborock S6 Pure Vacs etc., that Ive recently purchased be compatible with my only Wifi Router is a dual router that is a 2 gHz- 5 gHz wifi router all in one? OR do I now have to go buy a 2.5 gHz- ONLY router also JUST to vacuum? AND if so which is the best inexpensive router out right now if you or someone else reading may know? (Hugs)
      I had the Eufi 25C on a 30 min timer, via ONLY remote- and I assumed it didn't stop because of no Wifi connection being established.
      Also, should my bluetooth be on with the app? because I had everything else exactly as directed that U normally turn off for privacy if ya know what I mean- Anyway- Turned all on except Bluetooth which I mentioned above..
      I Truly need opinions/ advice ESPECIALLY b4 buying a router if no need to replace the one I already have as I personally have not had ANY issues with it re: Internet streaming, etc. As also mentioned I have received the Eufy 25C, and now the Roborock s6 Pure vacuum and mop is in transit. Again- anyone who maybe reads this that might know- I would greatly appreciate any advice. I don't know what I am doing wrong.
      Thank you! Be blessed and Stay SAFE.

    It has a "dumb" algorithm for cleaning🌼 it just bumps into things randomly and tries to not go where it was before. Having had recent experience with the "smart" approach I'll take dumb any day now. If you want it to clean a room, pick it up, drop it in the room, turn it on, and close the door. This is a thousand times easier than dealing with some app.

      I am a proud owner of the Eufy 25c
      If you have rooms that are off the hallway and you find the robovac is just going up and down cleaning and not going into the rooms
      You can just pick it up and put it in the room you want it to clean and set the desired time you want it to work.
      However
      It may go into the rooms off the hallway by the different patterns it takes.
      Or you can control where it goes via the app or remote.
      Hope this was helpful. :)

      I put crushed chips, rice, cooked sticky macaroni, coffee grounds and small Cheetos on every square inch of my hard surface floor down stairs, living room, dining room, kitchen and it even went into the bathroom and cleaned up the debris I placed in there.
      I set it to clean for 100 minutes ( standard cleaning mode )
      Then while I was in my room watching tv , right before I went to sleep I hit stop on the app then started the 100 minutes over again and upon waking up in the morning there was absolutely NOTHING on my floor!!!

      That one comes with boundary strips but it has the same suction and abilities besides the strip.

    Picked it up yesterday. Does a surprisingly good job for the price point. Has gotten stuck a couple of times on furniture that is just the perfect height to cause issues. Would be nice to have restricted access to certain areas like the 35c does.

    Why is this thing so mediocre at finding its charging stand? It literally just wanders around bumping until it hopefully finds the stand.

      I believe it’s still vacuuming with low battery just at reduced power, when it happens to get within range of the charging base then it hooks up. It doesn’t have the ability to return to base unless it gets close to it.
