Our Verdict

iRobot Roomba E5

eufy RoboVac G30

The iRobot Roomba E5 is better than the eufy RoboVac G30. The iRobot is better-built, less demanding in terms of maintenance, has a larger dustbin, and delivers better performance on low and high-pile carpet. Conversely, the eufy has a more advanced set of automation features, most notably smart-pathing and manual surface and power mode adjustment. It also includes a set of physical boundary strips that can be used to prevent the vacuum from entering certain areas.
