Experts praised the Eufy RoboVac X8, recommending it for bare floors. They were pleased with its smart mapping tech, surface detection features, and a decent 0.6L dirt cup.

Check out the Dyson V11 Animal review for a larger 0.76L dirt cup. However, they were displeased that it doesn’t have a HEPA filter and no mopping function.

Consensus

our Verdict

Top critics praised the Eufy RoboVac X8, recommending it for bare floors. TechRadar reviewers were pleased with its 500 kPa suction power.

However, if you desire more suction power, consider the Eufy RoboVac G30 Edge review. They clocked its noise rating at a good 62.3 dBA during testing.

A non-HEPA replaceable filter on this device performs okay but is not ideal for people with allergies. If you desire a model with a HEPA filter, check out our Eureka FloorRover Elite NEU630 review.

Analysts praised its 0.6L dirt bin and excellent 198-minute maximum battery life, which is much better than the 60-minute runtime of the Eureka Groove.

During testing, editors at Tom’s Guide found that the vacuum cleared 100% of large debris on bare floors and a disappointing 41% on low-pile carpets.

Analyst discovered that the LIDAR sensor on this unit provides smart mapping, and it responds well to changes in surfaces, although it occasionally bumps into obstacles.

Consider the Hoover ONEPWR Evolve Pet review for an upright vacuum that swivels around obstacles.

The IRobot Roomba J7+ has a HEPA filter, which is not the case with the Eufy RoboVac X8. The iRobot also maneuvers more effectively around obstacles. However, the eufy vacuum has a much better large-debris pickup rate on bare floors (100%) than the iRobot (88%).

The Eufy RoboVac X8 Is very similar to the Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid. The only difference is that while the X8 is a vacuum only, the hybrid has additional mopping functionality, so it has a 0.4L dust cup and 0.2L water tank. The X8 only has a 0.6L dirt cup with no water tank.
