eufy by Anker, RoboVac G30 Edge, Robot Vacuum with Dynamic Navigation 2.0, 2000 Pa Suction, Wi-Fi, Boundary Strips, for Carpets and Hard Floors, Ideal for Pet Owners

There's a lot I really like about this robo vac, but the most important thing to know is that it is absolutely essential that you give it googly eyes. I have not had a single moment where I was in a bad mood after watching it clean once I did. Now for the rest of the review... I originally was going to get the iRobot i3 based on the reviews and having had a Roomba before. However, the price jumped by a hundred bucks on that in the week between picking a model and actually going to buy it. That put it firmly outside of my price range. After some searching around and reading, I chose the Eufy G30 Edge as my backup and let me tell you, I am so happy with it! Of all the backup options I had, I chose this one specifically because it is shorter than similar models. The one complaint I had about our old Roomba is that it was too tall to fit under the sofa or coffee table. That this one can slide under the sofa (and other low furniture) is a huge selling point for me. Under the sofa is where all the cat toys end up and I get sick of moving it to retrieve a gallon of plastic springs. On its maiden voyage, the Eufy pushed all of them out from under the sofa for me to pick up at my leisure. It was absolutely fantastic! Speaking of pet toys, the Eufy didn't try to crawl over the toys, just pushed them around. The only exception was toys that had long feathers on them, which would get caught in the rollers. I pick up all the toys before it runs a cleaning cycle, but I like knowing that it won't be an issue if a cat bats one to the floor while the Eufy is running. The lower price and reviews I read on Amazon for the Eufy also helped my decision to pick this over the others. I know one of the big selling points of Roombas is they are long-lasting and easy to repair, while this one is not as DIY friendly. However, for the price, it was worth the risk. Other reviewers mentioned it has a removable battery, which I thought was a plus. That might never be an issue for me, but I like the option to replace the battery if it came to that. Speaking of battery life, I haven't had an issue with it running out of juice. In fact, I will often run it twice in a row, especially if I've been doing a lot of yard work over the weekend and tracked in a bunch of debris. Though caveat to that, it only cleans my kitchen and living room, which takes 45 minutes to an hour each session, so I get 1.5-2 hours of use out of it easily. (My house is a 1950s 3-level-split. If I wanted to use the Eufy on the whole house, I would have to carry it to each floor or buy one for each level. The middle level with the kitchen and living room is the only part of the house that is a big rectangle suitable for robo vacs). But the important thing for me is it takes care of all the high traffic areas for me so my floors are no longer embarrassing. In spring and summer, I work 60+ hours a week and do not have time to vacuum as much as I need. The floors got hideous last year from neglect and I bought the Eufy specifically to address that. The little rotating brush helps a lot to pick up stuff near the baseboards and in corners, but I still have to take a damp cloth or other vacuum to those spots now and then. Thanks to the Eufy doing the bulk of the work, I can actually deal with the remainder of the floors within my work schedule. I can't say how well it works on carpet, as we don't have so much as a single throw rug. Our floors are a mix of hardwood and vinyl. I have the Eufy set to auto suction in the app and let it do it's thing. I can say that it is fantastic at picking up pet hair. We have two cats who think shedding is a competitive sport. I have the Eufy scheduled to run at lunch every MWF and there's enough to make a small kitten in the dust bin each time. It picks up the usual kind of dirt really well and its suction is good enough to get a lot of fine particle dust. Though that dust gets all static clingy to the inside of the bin, so wiping it out now and then helps. The Eufy does not like leaves or pine needles at all. It will push them around or they get caught in the wheels and dragged around. Threads of sisal rope from the cat tree wound around the brush, roller, and wheels but didn't stop them from operating. Though we had the same issue with our old Roomba. I'm impressed at how well it can go over rough terrain. We have a cat tree sitting on a piece of scrap sheet vinyl and when we first had our rescue cat, I caulked a thick rim around the edge of the vinyl to prevent her various accidents from getting onto the wood floors. The Eufy can get over the rim fairly easily. It can even climb up onto the base of the cat tree (also covered with a scrap of vinyl that also has a rim of caulk) but has more trouble getting down from there. Only once have I had to rescue it. I finally put a couple barrier strips down so it only has to go over the first caulk rim. Barrier strips are the reason I chose the G30 Edge over the regular G30. The aforementioned split level means stairs and I'd rather it not go tumbling down them. On the first run, I had not yet put down the strips and I watched it as it negotiated the landing. It did detect the edge and didn't go over, but I put the barrier down anyway just in case. As far as noise levels, it hasn't been an issue for me. My office is open to the rest of the house, so I hear it running, but it isn't distracting or noticeable in conference calls. It might be annoying if I was trying to nap on the sofa, but only because it occasionally makes clunking noises as it bumps into things or rolls over the floor vents. I do wish the brushes lasted longer. They tend to warp after a month or two of regular use but I'm sure there's a way to straighten them out. I am glad the Eufy comes with a spare brush and filter and that replacements are inexpensive. The shiny top shows dust and fingerprints like crazy (though at least that reminds me to dust now and then, I guess?). Navigation-wise, the Eufy seems to do pretty decently. It's a little dumb and occasionally forgets how to extricate itself from under the folding TV tray I'm using as a plant stand. I like that the app has the map feature. It's a good tool to see where there might be trouble areas. I included a screenshot of the map from today's cleaning. It did it's usual lunchtime run, then I did some maintenance on it, swapped out the brush and filter, and ran it a second time, hence the lower battery level. It also picked up way more dust once I did that. The first run gets cat hair and some debris, the second run gets the dust. Again, doesn't clean as well as our full size vacuum but it keeps the high traffic areas swept. And as others have said, it also helps me to keep the house overall more tidy, as I have to keep clutter off the floor. All in all, I'm very pleased with the Eufy G30 Edge. It functions well, was inexpensive, and looks amazing with googly eyes on it. The only thing that disappoints me is I can't convince any of the cats to take a ride on it. Probably for the best.

Purchased a Eufy 30C six months ago and loved it so much I bought the Eufy G30 Edge four months ago and gave the 30C to my mother-in-law. We have solid vinyl plank flooring that looks like wood throughout the entire house. Two rooms are blocked by the magnetic strips, so the G30 edge vacuums about 1,600 square feet of our 4 bedroom house. This thing picks of SO MUCH STUFF! I’m simply amazed at how much hair, dust and small debris gets sucked up every other day. PROS: 1. Vacuums up a lot of stuff. Our floors are clean all of the time. We’ve never had such pristine floors. 2. Easy to setup cleaning schedule on the app. 3. Map shows where the vacuum has already cleaned, square feet and time cleaning. It’s mostly accurate. 4. Improved cleaning pattern compared to the 30C. Vacuum goes back and forth then finishes with a perimeter run at the end of the cleaning cycle. 5. Our house is too large to clean on a single charge. The G30 Edge returns to the charging base when about 3/4 of the house is done. After partially charging, it returns to the spot on the map where it left off and resumes cleaning. It takes about three hours of vacuuming to get the job done. 6. The G30 is pretty quiet. We can watch TV while it does its job. Can’t hear it at all when it leaves the room. Not really an issue because it does it’s job when we’re at work. 7. Our Eufy G30 Edge always returns to the charging base quickly without struggling. I only noticed it struggling twice out of the about 120 times it’s traveled back to the charging base in four months. It’s never failed to return home. 8. Quick and easy to maintain. I dump the bin, brush off the filter and remove hair from the roller and side brush after every use. My wife and daughter shed like golden retrievers! The vacuum performs flawlessly if you keep the rollers, brush and wheels free of hair. Seems like a hassle, but it’s so much easier than vacuuming the house. Small price to pay for pristine floors all the time. Plus “happy wife... happy life!” 9. Spot vacuuming feature does a nice job dealing with small messes that need a quick cleaning. 10. App works nicely to manually control the vacuum so no remote is needed. CONS: 1. Had to disable the 5 ghz on our router in order to get the Eufy G30 vacuum to work with my iPhone and IOS 14. Initial setup with our network was a real struggle and we’re usually very good with technology. I teach very technical software at the college level and my wife is an IT professional. The Eufy 30C was much easier to connect to our WiFi. 2. Factory consumables like filters and brushes are a bit pricey. Aftermarket parts work, but don’t fit as well (roller brush). 3. Not a smart mapping system that allows you to program specific areas to be avoided. Relies on unsightly magnetic strips instead. Not that big of a deal. Overall this vacuum does an outstanding job especially for the price. My wife constantly says how much she loves her 2020 Christmas gift. Yes, I gave my wife of 34 years a vacuum for Christmas and a promise to do the emptying and maintenance and she LOVES it! One of our favorite home purchases EVER!

8 Month Update The G30 has worked well, but it may not work much longer. It has developed a banging/hammering sound when the vacuum goes into boost mode. I’ve had to disassemble the wheels several times to remove impacted hair. I find the unit works best if I clean the filter with a shot of 100psi compressed air after each outing. If I don’t clean the filter, it really doesn’t work at all. I’m hoping to make it to the one year mark, but the noises have me concerned. ————————————- I have a yellow lab that sheds like no other dog I've ever seen. And it's very course hair, so it can be very difficult to vacuum. It just inserts itself into carpet. The first floor of my house is mostly hard wood, and her hair clumps and turns into hair tumbleweeds. I was vacuuming once a week (for about an hour), but i needed a different solution because there was so much hair by the weekend that I had to empty the dust bin of my Shark Rocket Duo 3 times to get the floors and carpet clean. So I purchased the Eufy G30 Edge to see if it could help keep the floors free of hair so it wasn't so hard to clean up by the weekend. I've been using it about a month and thought I'd give my early impressions. Set-up of the G30 Edge is easy. Download the app, connect it to wifi, adjust a few setting and you're ready to go. The first few times out I had the suction set to "Standard" but found better results with it set to "Boost IQ". The G30 is able to pickup 95% of the hair on the hardwood floors and maybe 80% of the hair on (in?) the carpet. And that's good - every bit as good as the results with the Rocket. However, with that said, the G30 leaves large hair clumps in it's wake. I believe that the brush gets overwhelmed by the volume of hair and as the G30 makes a turn, or transitions from hardwood to an area rug or carpet, it leaves the hair behind. I'm cleaning about 1,500 sq-ft of the 2,600 sq-ft first floor with the G30, and I'd say it will randomly leave 5 to 10 of these clumps behind. No big deal, it takes me about 2 minutes to grab these hair clumps with my Rocket. So I went from vacuuming an hour to a few minutes a week - I'd say that's a success. The battery life is good. According to the Eufy App, It takes nearly 3 hours for the G30 to make it's rounds on 1,500 sq-ft. It will return to the charger after about 90-100 minutes and then go back to where it left off to clean the remainder of the floor. I do note that the G30 can get a little lost after it completes the second round of cleaning. It will wander the perimeter of the house until it stumbles upon the charging station. This isn't a real concern...but it may leave a hair cluster or two behind. So if I notice it wandering, I'll pick it up and return it to its home. I have the G30 scheduled to clean three times a week - but I could probably make it every day. Every evening after use I empty the dust bin - which is usually packed full with hair and just a little dirt. That makes be believe that if you don't have pet hair to contend with, you'd probably only have to dump the bin a few times a month. I'm hoping that increasing the number of times I send the G30 out per week it will reduce the number of hair clusters left behind. The filter seems to hold on to dirt and hair, so it might be helpful to have a few of those on hand. Also, I remove the brush and clean that after each use...but I had to do that on the Rocket too. If you are just doing general clean-up, the brush may never have to come off your G30. So I'm happy with the results I get with the G30 Edge. I've gone from vacuuming an hour on the weekends to just a few minutes per week. And now I'm just doing spot cleaning. I think my situation is a worst-case scenario for any vacuum. We've currently own Dyson, Kenmore and Rocket vacuums - none work perfect. The Rocket gets used the most because it is light and easy to maneuver - and power brush works great on carpet. But the G30 makes my life easier.

This is the one. Look no further, stop shopping. Amazing engineering, works efficiently, so quiet you scarcely notice it, so thin it goes under everything. It's a wonder to watch it mess around for a bit, turn around, move this way & that, then get started in earnest in methodical patterns parallel to your room features. It just did most of our downstairs. (a complex arrangement), ran out of gas, returned for a charge, then resumed and shows a map of where it's been. Then it went back and got all the edges and corners. The map isn't just a toy; it confirms for you that it's been where you hope & expect. When it accurately shows your layout (including islands, potted plants, chair wells under a cabinet) you have confidence in what it's doing. We say it's the best of the best: we feel it's superior to the $800 and up models for several reasons, price being one, of course. It's quieter, more reliable (doesn't need light, and is less complex), thinner, and gets everything and everywhere - all for a third the price. When you watch it figuring out your layout and working in it, you trust it. Well done, Eufy. This one's a keeper. Tips: - For those who feel that after a couple of weeks the motion is not good: wipe off the bottom! The sensors are dusty and if can't see! - It's ok to confine it instead of letting it try to do an entire floor or all the rooms at once. Close some doors, and do just say, the master bedroom and bath. Lay a magnetic strip down to help with that if you like and hang it in the closet by the big vacuum that you're using a lot less. - It's worth spending some time up front cleaning up extension cords and other items. We should have done this just out of neatness anyway. Do it once and let 'er go. - Let's not complain about fringed rugs or thick ones that cause issues; these do the same with the big upright vacuum and we work around it with that.

I gave it about a week before writing a review, after reading feedback here on Day 1. The first day I was disappointed in this little vacuum. It kept doing the same spot over and over and it used all its charge on about 100 square feet of my living room. Day 2 it found the dining room and half of the kitchen, so about 250 square feet were vacuumed (it also went back to Day 1's area.) Day three it found the rest of the kitchen and some of the hallway. Each day it became more and more efficient, adding our bathroom and a bedroom to the list. Now it does the whole floor, except rooms we've closed off, of course. It actually must not have finished on the last charge because it's just announced it finished charging and is out vacuuming again. We have four kids, two of whom don't know what a plate is for, and two long haired cats, so our floor is hard to keep clean more than a couple of hours. Even making the kids vacuum weekly and sweep daily wasn't helping. So we bought this Eufy. Our floors are staying clean because it's consistent- scheduled to run every day. The remote option is a bit fiddly and cumbersome, but does work well enough to direct George to a dirty spot when necessary. I couldn't do a whole room like that. He's very good at figuring out how to get out of situations. I rarely have to rescue him. A couple of cons: we have almost all hardwood or peel-and-stick-tile. When George gets caught around a chair leg or corner his wheels make an awful dragging sound. Maybe it's just because I have such messiness around, but I find I have to empty the reservoir at least once during a cleaning cycle. The brush needs frequent cleaning too. However, everything is easy to remove and replace.

We live in a three level house with each level being about 1000 square feet. We spend most of the time on the main (middle) level. We usually vacuum once a week, sometimes more but have a perpetual "dust bunny" problem... well, more like dust doggy, thanks to our furry little four legged critter. So, the usual ritual is to do a good vacuum job and spot clean the dust doggies as they appear in between. Against my wife's wishes, I started researching robotic vacuum's and settled on a few in the sub $300.00 range. I narrowed it down to the Anker RoboVac G30 Edge because not only did it have that updated navigation and mapping, but it also let me set up some restriction zones with the included magnetic strips. Now, we have a pretty cluttered open concept main level with couches, lounge chairs, end tables, etc as well as a 12' dining room table with 10 chairs which I thought would be a challenge. All of those chairs have felt pads on them which seem to suck up the fuzz all over our hardwood floor and are very frustrating to clean. Eufy was easy to set up and after letting her charge for several hours, she set out on her own to explore and clean the vast reaches of the main level of our home. We were mesmerized by her movements as she found her way around and under all of our furniture and negotiated all of the obstacles in her path. I watched as she got stuck in a few areas and took note to use the edge strips to block under the low end of our sofa as well as the included zip ties to secure some lamp cords. After she finished, she had mapped out 965 square feet with uncanny accuracy. She managed to clean areas I usually miss with our trusty Dyson DC10 Animal - including under our bed (yeah, yuck) where our dog often sleeps. But one of the amazing things we noticed was that her side brush cleans all the fuzzies off the felt furniture pads as she navigates her way around them. That alone made my wife happy about the purchase. If you are OCD about having perfectly straight "vacuum lines", this robotic vacuum is for you. It is amazing to see the near perfect patterns she plots out on the carpet when she navigates through our bedrooms. It is art in its most basic form. We have the schedule set for it to run on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and sometimes will use the app on the weekend to tell her to go out and clean. Since my wife works from home, she was concerned that the noise would distract her while she is working but Eufy is whisper quiet as she works. The only drawback, and this has nothing to do with the device is that our crazy dog loves to be vacuumed when I clean the house. She would follow me around and sit near me until I would take the rotating head off the dyson, put on the brush and vacuum her off.... well, it is an "animal vac" afterall. Now she just sadly follows Eufy around waiting to have her loose fur sucked off.

[Update] I still generally like the G30, but less than four months later the gears on the right wheel are completely stripped out and the vacuum was stuck driving in circles. The suction could definitely be improved, and the wheels tend to pick things up causing the wheel wells to collect junk. This might have contributed to the right wheel's issue. The grid navigation is a huge improvement over the random bouncing logic that was used in older models, but it's best to set the base station up perpendicular to most walls and obstacles in the house, or it will start doing weird things while trying to maintain the grid path. It will still be stubborn and get stuck in the same spot repeatedly during a cleaning session, but it isn't nearly as bad as the random pattern logic. I'm ultimately having to admit that a robot vacuum while having children and a dog isn't really the quality of life improvement I had hoped for since the floors are never clear enough to safely and correctly vacuum. [Original] I'll start by saying that I own the Eufy 11c Pet, which is my primary comparison. The G30 is so much quieter and significantly more efficient. If you have pets and/or children, then you know how much work it is to keep things picked up enough for the scheduler for a robot vacuum can be, but proper navigation of the 30G makes all of that work a little less important. Not only are issues with it getting hung up on and still ensuring that the entire room still gets vacuumed less work, but it often managed to back out of traps that the older random bull-like algorithm wasn't smart enough to do.

The Robovac G30 edge that we purchased is keeping our floors cleaner than they have likely ever been. It runs about 2 hours on a single charge, navigates pretty well around obstacles, is quiet. Goes under the dining table and under the chairs, under the couches, under the piano better than I would likely do vacuuming manually. Pros: Collects a lot of fine stuff we would likely miss, does a more thorough job than I would usually do vacuuming manually, easy to clean, returns reliably to its charging station. No performance glitches, does not get stuck easily. Cons: Not the best for dog hair, collects some, blows some around with the exhaust port air in the rear and sometimes leaves little waddies of hair when it transitions from hard floor to rug. We have a long-coated Lab. The dirt hopper is pretty small, in our house can fill up halfway thru a run. It can get stuck on power cords. The Eufy comes with magnetic strips you can stick to the floor to keep it out of wherever, but they are ugly and hard to use. They don't work reliably if you slip them under a rug to hide them. 3/11/2021 Now we rely upon it. Does a great job cleaning our floors, doesn't get stuck. Our floors are clearly cleaner than they ever were before. Still not great for long dog hair, but we can clean that up separately. We are embarrassed with how much dirt it finds, even using it every other day in what we used to think was a clean house. The Eufy does not replace a conventional vacuum cleaner, but it definitely improves upon what we were doing before we used it.

Excelente compra. Lo recomiendo. Lo tengo programado para que limpie varias veces a la semana y la verdad que es una maravilla. Silencioso y potente. Genial en piso de madera, cerámica y muy bien desempeño en las alfombras y tapetes. Tenemos un perro que suelta mucho pelo y está habsido la solución.

Funcionalidad y eficiencia Buen Producto

This vacuum was a great decision. We both have busy jobs and are neat freaks, so it was coming down again to hire a maid or try a robotic vacuum. We went with the vacuum after reading the reviews and seeing how great the customer service was. Now I can push a button in the app or on the vacuum and it gets to work and we can do other things. It does a fantastic job on hard floors. We have berber carpet and dogs with short coarse hair, it does a good job with this on max suction, but not great. It may be fine or other types of carpet. It has no issues climbing up mats by doors, sweeps the edges of the rooms with hardwood exceptionally well, and gets right to the edge of the stairs without going over. It even gets under the TV stand, beds, and the dinning room table. Overall, it's been a great buy for us.
