Eufy X10 Pro Omni vacuum and mopping robot in the test: a real bargain for €650


What vacuum robots like those on our top list of the best vacuum robots can now achieve is impressive. However, today the top models often cost more than 1000 euros and even come close to the 1500 euro mark. It is understandable that not everyone wants to spend that much money. It seems that the Anker brand Eufy also sees it this way and has therefore brought to the market a vacuum and mopping robot that is equipped with really good 3D object recognition and comes with a comprehensive cleaning station with hot air drying for mops. The price? 799 euros in RRP and at the time of testing it had already reached 650 euros in free trade. We explain what the Eufy X10 Pro Omni does in the test.

  • Omni-Station rinses mops and dries them with hot air
  • AI-assisted cleaning possible
  • On paper, a lot of robot vacuum cleaners for little money

The most notable thing about the robot is the suggested D-shape, although compared to the Ecovacs X5 Omni (test report), it is noticeably more rounded. Otherwise, only the comparatively large height of just under 11 cm is noticeable on the laser tower, which is equipped with a contact sensor. At least the bot takes care of it if it gets stuck. The model, which is finished in matt black, appears to be of sufficiently high quality overall, without being significantly different from the top models of the competition.

The station is quite compact and seems self-sufficient at first glance. In fact, the tanks for fresh water and waste water (3 and 2.5 litres) are placed behind each other rather than next to each other, and the suction device is located next to them. This arrangement makes the front appear to be divided into two parts rather than three, but in fact there is only a fine joint and no gap between the two sides. The removable tray is practical for cleaning the station, but in general the station cleans itself very well, the lack of cable management at the rear is a bit of a shame.

Getting the Eufy X10 Pro Omni up and running is easy. Illustrated instructions on the box lid and a QR code for the Eufy app make it easy to get started. After installing and connecting the station and filling the fresh water container, the robot vacuum cleaner can be paired and started via the app. The app explains every step in detail.

It is user-friendly and offers all the essential features. The main view shows an image of the robot vacuum cleaner and allows you to select special cleaning modes. The apartment map can be edited and multiple maps can be created for different floors. Cleaning protocols and scheduled cleaning plans can be created using the options symbol. All the features known from the competition, such as automatically increasing suction power on carpets, room layouts, virtual walls and more, are available. This means that Anker doesn’t have to hide behind competitors such as Roborock or Dreamy, even if they perhaps offer a little more detail.

Eufy does this surprisingly well in testing, sometimes even better than much more expensive competing products. Bottles, slippers, cat toys and cables are reliably detected and avoided, and objects are usually avoided completely without contact. The X10 Pro Omni only reaches its limits when it comes to very small parts, such as LEGO bricks or small toy mice. These must be removed first. An LED light on the front allows detection of obstacles even in the dark.

Otherwise, the robot vacuum cleaner moves in a structured manner and considers its paths, does not get stuck and does not miss anything. The Eufy X10 Pro Omni first cleans the edges and then cleans the rest of the room in straight lines. It can handle thresholds no higher than 2 cm – on the one hand, this is positive because the device can also be used in older buildings, but on the other hand, it can also mean that the robot can get stuck on rocking chairs, for example. However, this did not happen in our test. However, he likes to shake out small rugs but does not get stuck anywhere. The edges are cleaned well so that no visible dirt remains. Although we cannot identify a clear advantage of the suggested D-shape, the X10 Pro Omni cannot get into corners either. In turn, its shape does not bother it when navigating – it seemed completely different with the Ecovacs X5 Omni (test report). The Eufy X10 Pro Omni doesn’t offer an extendable mop or even an extendable side brush.

The AI.See technology with camera and cross laser automatically adapts the cleaning mode in the respective rooms if desired. In more dirty areas such as the hallway, dining room and kitchen, the cleaning intensity is increased. This should automatically ensure a particularly clean home. Alternatively, the user can choose the cleaning intensity and the type of cleaning himself in the app. The robot’s mops rotate at a speed of 180 revolutions per minute and work with a mopping pressure of 1 kg. The mop is applied to the carpet. The mopping technology called MopMaster 2.0 ensures clean floors, even if dry dirt is not always removed at the first attempt. Thanks to the self-entanglement roller brush with rubber slats and bristles, long hair should not get tangled as the metal comb keeps the hair away from the brush. However, this only works to a limited extent in the test; long hair still remains wrapped around the brush.

The Eufy X10 Pro Omni automatically fills its internal water tank from the Omni Station and periodically returns to the station to clean the mops with water during the cleaning process. In this way, dirt is distributed as little as possible throughout the apartment, which is also what competitors do, some of which are significantly more expensive. However, with Eufy the interval can only be set according to the number of square meters, not rooms. At the end of the cleaning process, the mops are dried with hot air after being washed and the dust container is vacuumed into the station’s dust bag. Hot air drying effectively prevents odors caused by slow drying.

When vacuuming, the Eufy X10 Pro Omni performs particularly well on hard floors. Accumulations of crumbs are mostly removed on the first attempt and even light or particularly heavy particles usually find their way directly into the dust container. There is no big difference here compared to significantly more expensive models. The Eufy vacuum cleaner also does a very good job on carpets, and should not cause any problems in everyday life. A big difference compared to significantly more expensive vacuums and mopping robots is only noticeable when mopping. Although the vacuum cleaner can handle simple stains such as dry coffee and offers a similar wiping pattern, the competition can sometimes handle more stubborn stains better. Regular driving helps here.

The battery is fine. In testing, the Eufy X10 Pro Omni covered about 90 square meters (total) with a single battery charge. Although this is significantly less than the Elite (best list), with intermediate charging the vacuum cleaner works even in large apartments.

The Eufy X10 Pro Omni has an RRP of 799 euros. Its price is now also charged from the manufacturer with the code WS24T2351 Only 649 euros,

The Eufy X10 Pro Omni is a powerful vacuum and mopping robot that offers a lot of comfort and performance at a relatively affordable price. Good object and obstacle detection, good suction power and great cleaning stations stand out positively. The mopping performance may not match the competition’s more expensive top-of-the-range products, but it’s still fine considering the price and if you drive regularly. Eufy Overall, the Eufy X10 Pro Omni is a real price-performance winner.
