I thought robot vacuums were useless until I tested Eufy’s £999 Omni E35
The premium robot vacuum handled hard floors, rugs and stairs well over 16 cleaning sessions, but the reviewer said £999 is hard to justify.
The Eufy Omni E35 proved surprisingly capable during a two-week test in a small, irregular cottage, successfully handling thresholds and different floor types. Priced at £999, the unit launches on the Anker-Eufy website.
Despite effective mopping and vacuuming, The Eufy Omni E35 is physically larger than expected and cannot fit underneath furniture. However, Eufy successfully navigated a 2.5cm threshold and avoided a roughly 10-inch drop near a stone step.
Resident robot vacuum expert Gareth Butterfield noted that carpet-cleaning concerns proved unfounded, as the E35 successfully removed crumbs, dust, and hair over 16 sessions without requiring roller maintenance.
The £999 price is difficult to justify for a relatively small cottage, though the reviewer suggests a price closer to £699 would make the E35 significantly easier to recommend.
Maintenance is largely automated, with the station washing and drying the mop while emptying dust. For larger homes, time-saving benefits may outweigh the premium cost, though you should weigh specific cleaning needs before committing.
