4.1
(11)

Bottom Line

Choose the eufy E25 for standout roller mopping and strong everyday pickup with a mostly hands-off dock; Skip if you need bug-free software reliability or perfect edge cleaning on carpets.

Best for

Homes with mostly hard floors and area rugs that want best-in-class automated mopping plus strong routine vacuuming with minimal daily maintenance.

Not for

Homes that demand flawless app stability or have lots of deep-pile carpet where edge cleaning and mop flexibility matter most.

Verdict

Across reviews, the E25 stands out for its HydroJet roller mop: it scrubs well, stays cleaner during a run, and produces consistently strong hard-floor results with low day-to-day effort thanks to the wash/dry/auto-empty station. Vacuuming is generally very good on rugs and typical carpets, with effective anti-tangle rollers and solid obstacle avoidance and mapping. The biggest risk is software reliability: one outlet reports frequent shutdowns and app errors that can make the robot frustrating to use, and several reviewers note weaker edge reach on carpets and occasional extra dock returns. If your priority is automated mopping and routine maintenance cleaning, the value is compelling, but heavy carpet-edge perfection seekers should temper expectations.

FAQ

Does the E25 have a mop-only mode?

Most reviews note it offers vacuum-only or vacuum-and-mop, but not a true mop-only mode, so you may need workarounds if you want separate vacuum and mopping passes.

How well does it handle pet hair?

Across reviews it performs very well on pet hair, with strong pickup and anti-tangle rollers that greatly reduce wrapped hair, though large clumps can take extra passes on hard floors.

Is it safe on rugs and carpets while mopping?

It lifts the roller mop when it detects carpet and generally handles mixed floors well, but very thin rugs or high-pile carpets can be more finicky than robots that can fully detach mops.

How much maintenance does the dock still require?

The station automates emptying, washing, and drying, but you still need to empty/rinse the dirty-water tank, refill clean water, replace bags, and periodically wipe sensors and clean the dock tray.

Are software issues a concern?

Several reviews report solid app control, but at least one reports frequent shutdowns and app errors; if reliability is critical, confirm current firmware behavior and retailer return terms.
