Our Verdict

eufy RoboVac X8

iRobot Roomba j7/j7+

The eufy RoboVac X8 and the iRobot Roomba j7 each have strengths and weaknesses, meaning one might suit you better than the other, depending on your needs. The eufy has fewer parts that need periodic cleaning, lasts longer on a single charge, and delivers superior cleaning performance on bare floors and low-pile carpets. The iRobot has more advanced automation capabilities, most notably its hazard detection capability. If you go for the pricier j7+ model, its self-emptying function allows it to dump any accumulated debris from its internal dustbin to an external dirt compartment on its charging dock, reducing hands-on maintenance requirements. The iRobot also performs better on high-pile carpets and charges a lot faster.
