eufy RoboVac L70 Robo Vac and Mop

Update 10/1/2020 Eufy, if you are reading this, there is only one flaw with your machine, but it falls into the 10% of "I'm not giving up the 90% of what I like best about your machine. The drawback is the overall height and its where the lidar pops out, it's just a little too high for some buffet tables and dressers with a scalloped bottom. Eufy finds its way in, but has trouble finding it's way out. The rest is great! Hope more are in stock soon, going to send one to mom. Update: 10/17/2020 So far I've tried most of the 360 line of robots and RoboRocks. What I've learned is this: The 260, roborock and eufy all share many of the same parts, but they are worlds apart. Eufy continues to stand out as the best and here's why. I ran the 360 on my first floor which is 100% hardwoods with a few throw rugs. The 360 had taken the longest and picked up very little (we have 3 mini daschunds), the robot rock did it's thing and picked up little. Now you are probably thinking "wait a minute, why would you expect the 2nd vacuum to pick up anything?" Well, i'll tell you that after I ran the eufy last, it completely filled up the bin as it does every day I run it and I was actually quite surprised as well and yes, all bins were checked before the robos did their thing. Eufy has the best suction, the best cord to put in an outlet with another appliance. The 360 used a universal plug and placed the plug in for your country, but it had taken up too much of the outlet to be useable. Software: 360 and RoboRock used basically the same software with different names and they were both pretty bad. Eufy has a robust software and it easily connects to the network. Both Robo and 360 failed and probably why they receive only 3 starts on the app store. I also returned the i7+ iRobot because it ran like an old clunker and it was very loud. All 3 machines including eufy, 360, and roborock are all very quite. Who's the best Positive review. Height - with the laser this is just over 4.02" iRobot i7 is 3.62" Why am I posted the height, now that I've had a chance to use the Eufy L7 for a bit, it seems that it's about 1/4" too tall for most furniture. We ordered both the i7 irobot and that will arrive later this week and I'm guessing it will work better with our scalloped bottom buffet cabinets and a few other things. The Eufy would sometimes have difficulty entering and leaving some furniture with scallops and one of our beds with frames. not a big deal and I will update later on how the irobot performs compared to Eufy. I'm going to leave my review short as others have already gone into the details. It's very quiet and as close to quiet as the new low decibel dishwashers. Provides extra suction when on carpets. When I saw this thing spinning and bumping into stuff, I wondered if I bought a lemon. Give it TIME to impress because it's learning and you'll know it. Also believed it was going to be stuck under scalloped bottom buffets and sofas - not a chance, it will fuss a bit just like all of us, but somehow it magically does a little spin and finds its way out. My only advise other than to give it time to learn is to probably pick up obstacles for the best clean, of course it's going to make it's way around obstacles, but it can't move them for us to clean underneath. The early fun is watching it learn and being impressed by what it does after the learning curve. My review is based on vacuuming and tonight I will run the mop. 11/13/2020 Mopping was great. We have dogs so I found it's best to vacuum in the morning and "Vacuum Mop" at night. The unit can disable vacuuming while mopping, but I chose to use both. The app can be set for light, medium and heavy water flow for mopping and my first try was on low. There was enough water to clean about 1000 square feet of area. Square footage is less than the actual space because of normal obstacle like floor islands, cabinets, furniture, etc. Intervention - Our entire house is wall to wall hardwoods with tile in the bathrooms. The unit has a bit of trouble climbing from hardwood to tile over the threshold (it teeters), but it seems to be okay leaving. The 1/8 of an inch difference was the straw that broke the camels back. I wasn't too upset about it, it is a machine and there's an 80/20 rule to life. We can't have it all and the 20% really isn't an issue in the case of the robot. Nothing is perfect is how i feel and we are delighted by the 80% of what it does do. We are so happy with the Eufy L70 that I will be buying one for my mother. Yes, I would highly recommend to anyone interested in a robot vacuum.
