Our Verdict

Samsung POWERbot R7040

eufy RoboVac 30C

The Samsung POWERbot R7040 is a better robot vacuum than the eufy RoboVac 30C. It performs better on any type of floor, and it has a smart pathing feature while the eufy doesn't have one. The Samsung is also easier to maintain and has virtually no recurring costs. However, the eufy has a better battery, and the dirt compartment is bigger.
