Our Verdict
eufy RoboVac G30
iRobot Roomba i3
The iRobot Roomba i3 is better than the eufy RoboVac G30. The iRobot feels better built, charges significantly faster, maneuvers itself more effectively, has a HEPA filter, and delivers better performance across all floor types. It also has more advanced automation capabilities, with a self-emptying feature that enables it to dump debris from its internal dustbin into an external dirt compartment attached to its charging dock. It can also resume a cleaning job from where it left off if it had to recharge partway through the session. Conversely, the eufy incurs lower recurring costs.
