eufy X10 Pro Omni Robot Vacuum Review

The eufy X10 Pro Omni is impressively well-built. Its body is made of thick matte-finish plastic that looks and feels premium to the touch. It also features wheels with grooved rubber treads and a bumper with a rubber lip that will prevent it from damaging your walls. It feels rather heavy for a robot vacuum, which isn't surprising considering how much is inside.

The multifunction dock also feels similarly sturdy to the vacuum. However, it's worth noting that, like the multifunction dock included with the Roborock Qrevo, it's very large since it not only has an integrated dirtbag for solid debris but two water tanks: one for clean water and the other for wastewater collected from the mop pad rinse cycle.

This vacuum has several parts you need to clean regularly, though everything is easy to access.

• Dirt compartment: Since this vacuum has a self-emptying function, in which it sucks debris from its internal dustbin into a dirtbag inside its dock, you actually won't have to empty its dustbin manually all that often. That said, the user guide does recommend cleaning it weekly, which is easy. You can lift it out with the built-in grab handle. From there, you can open the swivel door and dump out any accumulated debris, but be careful when doing so, as this door opens very easily.
• Base station dirtbag: The base station dirtbag can be slid out of its housing, and you should replace it when full.
• Vacuum filter: The filter is mounted on top of the vacuum's dirt compartment and can be un-clipped very easily. You should rinse it once a week under water before leaving it to dry for at least 24 hours.
• Brushroll/Brush guard: You can easily remove the brush guard by pressing in the two release clips, which then allows you to pull out the brushroll. The brush guard features a built-in anti-tangle comb that's at least partially effective in preventing hair from getting wrapped around the roller; you can see what the roller looked like before running an extra cycle with the brush guard and after. Whatever hair does remain on the brushroll can be cut away with a pair of scissors. You should clean the brush guard and the brushroll once a month under clean water and leave them to dry for at least 24 hours.
• Side brush: Unfortunately, you'll need a Philips-head screwdriver to remove the retaining screw holding the side brush in place. On the upside, barely any hair tends to get stuck to it. The manufacturer recommends cleaning it once a week.
• Swivel wheel: You can pull the swivel wheel from its socket to clear out any stuck-on dirt or debris. Thankfully, very little debris makes its way in, though the manufacturer still recommends cleaning it once a month.
• Sensors/Charging contacts: You'll have to wipe off the camera sensor at the front of the vacuum as well as the metal charging contacts with a clean cloth once a month.

The eufy X10 Pro Omni's mopping systems also have their own fair share of required upkeep.

• Mop pads: The mopping pads can be removed by pulling them out of their sockets, though you won't have to wash them manually too often since the multifunction dock washes and dries them automatically.
• Multifunction dock clean water tank: You can grasp the integrated handle and lift the clean water tank upwards from its slot in the dock. You should refill this tank as necessary. The manual gives no cleaning instructions, but you won't need to clean or rinse it often since you only use this tank for clean water.
• Multifunction dock dirty water tank: As with the clean water tank, you can grab the tank handle and lift the compartment from its housing before dumping out any water inside. You should rinse it out with water as needed.
• Multifunction mopping pad tray: You can slide out the drip tray from the base of the station. You should rinse it with cool water whenever necessary.

The eufy X10 incurs high recurring costs.

• Brushroll: You'll need to replace the brushroll after 360 hours of use or every six months and the brush guard every three to six months. You can buy a combined brushroll and brush guard set on eufy's website.
• Side brush: The side brush has a service life of roughly three to six months of use. You can buy a two-pack of replacements from the company's website.
• Filter: The filter needs replacing following 360 hours of on-time, or three to six months, according to the user manual. You can buy replacements in packs of two.
• Mop pads: You should replace the mop pads every three to six months or after 180 hours of use. A two-pack of replacements can be purchased on eufy's website.
• Multi-function dock dirtbag: The dirtbag has an advertised capacity of 2.5L, enough for 30 to 60 days' worth of debris, depending on the household. You can buy a two-pack of spares on the company's  website.

eufy also offers a value pack that includes:

• 1x Brushroll
• 1x Brush guard
• 1x Filter
• 2x Side brushes
• 2x mop pads

The eufy X10 Pro Omni takes up a fair amount of space. While the vacuum itself isn't big, its multifunction dock is on the larger side. Thankfully, it's notably shorter than the similar multifunction dock bundled with the Roborock Qrevo, which makes it easier to fit under some tables and chairs.

At just under a quarter of a liter, this vacuum's internal dustbin is pretty small, and as a result, it'll need to return to its docking station to self-empty pretty often. Since the vacuum's internal water reservoir is built into the unit and you can't remove it, we can't verify its capacity, and the manufacturer doesn't advertise it either.

The eufy X10 Pro Omni has a multifunction docking station. It has a self-emptying function, in which debris is sucked from the vacuum's dustbin into an internal dirtbag with a 2.35L capacity. The dock will send you an alert when the dustbag is filled and due to be replaced. The clean water tank has a capacity of 3L, which the manufacturer advertises as being sufficient to clean a 1,500-2,000 sq ft (150 sq m) home two to three times.

This vacuum has fantastic battery performance. It uses a 2600 mAh lithium-ion battery, far smaller than the 5200 mAh unit found in the Roborock Qrevo, yet delivers a similar overall runtime, suggesting a considerably lower overall power draw. Its max battery life sits at almost four hours in its high-efficiency 'Quiet' mode, more than sufficient for cleaning your entire home, and drops to a little over 100 minutes in its high-power 'Max' mode, which is still plenty for dealing with smaller stubborn messes. That said, it's worth noting that while we didn't test energy consumption with the mopping feature enabled, you'll almost certainly see a lower runtime than with just vacuuming alone. If you want a hybrid vacuum/mop with a longer runtime and a shorter recharge time, you could consider the Narwal Freo X Ultra.

The manufacturer also provides a how-to guide for swapping out the battery pack.

This vacuum is quite feature-packed. There are a variety of dedicated cleaning functions that will force it to clean only certain areas or in certain modes. There's 'Vacuum Only,' which restricts the use of the mop, 'Carpet Avoidance' mode, 'BoostIQ' mode, which automatically increases suction on carpets, and, of course, the default 'Normal Cleaning' mode, which allows it to vacuum floors and mop hard surfaces in one go thanks to its mop lift function, which raises the mop pads by 12 millimeters when it's passing onto a carpeted surface.

If you'd like to manually select its power setting, there are four to choose from: the energy-efficient 'Quiet' mode, the default 'Standard' mode, 'Turbo,' and 'Max.'

You can also tweak its pathing behavior: 'Fast' prioritizes getting a cleaning job done, well, fast, 'Standard' strikes a balance between speed and thoroughness, and 'Deep' forces the vacuum to overlap the same area more than once.

Lastly, you can also choose between three levels of water flow for the mopping system.

If you'd rather not deal with all of these parameters and would rather leave it up to the vacuum, sticking it in its 'Smart Mode' allows the vacuum to automatically select the optimum settings for each room it cleans.

This vacuum's performance on bare floors is mediocre, at least within the parameters of our floor performance test. In its 'Standard' pathing mode, it moves in an erratic pattern, causing it to miss wide swathes of the floor. We couldn't use the 'Deep' pathing setting, as the vacuum didn't recognize the test box as a room map; you can see the error message we received. In the areas it does clean, its three-armed side brush tends to scatter fine debris outwards, though, at the very least, it isn't bad at picking up larger material like rice or cereal pieces. Consider the Roborock Qrevo S if you want something that does better on this surface type, or if you want something from the same brand, then check out the eufy Omni C20.

This vacuum's performance on high-pile carpets is also mediocre, beyond just the navigational issues we encountered in the Hard Floor Pick-Up performance test. Despite its high advertised suction of 8000 Pa, it still tends to leave behind a significant amount of fine debris like sand that's been gently pressed into carpet fibers. Meanwhile, its side brush scatters around medium and bulky debris like rice and cereal instead of directing it towards the path of its brushroll.

The eufy X10 Pro Omni's debris-pickup performance on low-pile carpet is poor. Its side brush scatters around large and medium-sized debris like cereal and rice, while it does little to clear away finer debris like sand that's been pressed into carpet fibers. Beyond that, it also does a terrible job of dealing with debris left along walls and in corners. This vacuum also displayed the same navigational woes in this test as in the 'Hard Floor Pick-Up' and 'High-Pile Carpet Pick-Up' tests, which caused it to miss portions of our testing box.

This vacuum does a terrible job of dealing with pet hair on low-pile carpet. While it clears away lighter strands that are barely resting on carpet fibers, some hair gets stuck on the brushroll and is left to drag along the floor, where it can get stuck again. If you're a pet owner who wants a robot vacuum for tackling pet hair, check out the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra.

This vacuum's airflow performance is okay for a robot vacuum. It lags slightly behind peers like the Roborock Q Revo and will have a harder time lifting heavier debris away.

This vacuum is fantastically quiet. You'll hear what people nearby are saying even when the vacuum is running in its most powerful suction mode.

The multifunction dock is noisier than the vacuum when using the self-empty function, with a peak volume of 73.2 dBA.

This vacuum does a fair job of adapting to larger obstacles. It's capable of cleaning up fairly close to obstructions like chair and table legs, though it's liable to bump into them. It gets stuck on tasseled rugs, but in its defense, the manufacturer recommends tucking in any tassels under the carpet before letting the vacuum run anyway. Mirrors pose a problem too, and the vacuum can recognize the reflective surface as another room. The eufy vacuum's LIDAR sensor sticks out quite a bit from the top, and this unit can have difficulty cleaning under lower couches. Check out the Dreame L10s Ultra if you want a robot vacuum with real-time hazard avoidance capability that does a slightly better job of navigating around obstacles.

This vacuum's obstacle-avoidance performance is heavily dependent on what surface it's running on. On hard floors, the X10 is impressively consistent in spotting things like socks or slippers, generally giving them a pretty wide berth. That said, its AI.See hazard recognition system doesn't work nearly as well on carpets, where the vacuum can frequently collide and get stuck on hazards like loose USB cables. Worse yet, it doesn't always avoid pet waste, which is definitely something to be aware of if you have a dog at home.

This is a very tall robot vacuum, and it'll struggle to clean under lower couches or TV stands as a result.

This robot vacuum can cross most household thresholds. It can't lift itself as high as alternatives with entire chassis lifting systems, but it isn't likely to get bogged down on laminate or wood room dividers.

This robot vacuum isn't all that great at sealing in allergens, which can escape from its exhaust.

This vacuum has poor crack-cleaning performance. It struggles with drawing up fine debris wedged deep within crevices, and its side brush mostly just drags around lighter debris. Doing a second pass in the 'Max' suction setting makes little difference. See the final result of a second pass.

This vacuum's stain-clearing performance is poor with the water flow mode set to 'High,' the pathing mode set to 'Normal,' and the 'Edge-Hugging' function left on, which is supposed to let the vacuum clean closer to walls. Despite pre-soaking the mop pads before running its cleaning job, this vacuum had only a minor impact on the dried-on stain, to the point where it would require at least a few more mopping cycles to fully clear it away. If you want a vacuum with superior stain-clearing performance, the Roborock Qrevo Pro is a good choice.

Note: Unfortunately, this vacuum displayed the same navigational issues in this test that it did in the Floor Pickup tests, causing it to move in a somewhat erratic, unpredictable pattern in testing. We attempted to test its mopping performance in the vacuum's 'Deep' pathing mode, which requires it to save a map of its cleaning space. Unfortunately, while attempting to use this pre-saved map of our boundary testing box, the vacuum would instead generate a new coverage map and revert to the 'Standard' pathing mode. To simulate the effect of the 'Deep' pathing mode, we ran four extra passes:

• Pass 2
• Pass 3
• Pass 4
• Pass 5

After the vacuum has finished mopping, it'll park at the multifunction dock, where the pads are then cleaned again before being dried with a flow of warm air. You can see how the pads looked before and after the automatic clean cycle.

The manufacturer didn't design the eufy X10 Pro Omni to deal with large liquid spills. While its mopping pads can soak up smaller messes, using the vacuum to suck up liquid will result in damage.

This vacuum has a broad array of physical automation features. Most obviously, there's the multifunction dock, which empties its dustbin, refills its water tank, and washes and dries its mopping pads.

The eufy X10 can be operated without its smartphone app, but its functionality is limited. There are three physical control buttons. Pressing the 'Power' button starts a cleaning cycle, pressing the 'Home' button sends it back to its dock, and pressing the 'Spot Clean' button causes the vacuum to clean a small area, defined as a 4.9 ft by 4.9 ft square.

The eufy Clean app is superb. While registering inputs with it can be slow, it offers a comprehensive suite of features. See a quick guide for the app.

After it's mapped out your home, you can set up no-go zones and invisible walls, divide rooms, tweak cleaning settings for different areas, or even view obstacles that the hazard avoidance system detected and took pictures of (it's worth noting that this feature is off by default). You can also schedule cleaning sessions for specific rooms or use your smartphone as a remote control. It also offers multi-level mapping for up to five floors.

The app gives real-time status information when the vacuum is cleaning, mopping, or parked at its dock. It also has a 'Help' sub-menu that gives you a projected service interval for various wear items and lets you view how-to maintenance videos.
