Our Verdict

Roborock E4

Eureka Groove

The Roborock E4 is a much better overall robot vacuum than the Eureka Groove. The Roborock is better built, cleans much more thoroughly across all surface types, and maneuvers more efficiently. It also has a longer battery life while taking less time to charge. Meanwhile, the Eureka is a little bit lighter and takes up fractionally less space.
