The vacuum comes with four power modes, a variety of brushes and attachments, and an intuitive app that lets you pick the exact kind of cleaning you'd like for each room.

You could, for instance, ask the robot to clean the kitchen and living room thoroughly but leave the bedroom to itself. The S1 Pro's front colision sensors and smart navigation technology are also excellent as the best robot vacuum that mops is capable of detecting tiny obstacles that other models struggle with. Its only minor issue is that it tends to crash into walls and objects at full speed. However, just a glance at the history of cleaning in the app will tell you exactly what it's doing, where it's going and what obstacles it's avoided.

The docking station comes with an LCD display that displays when maintenance is needed for cleaning up debris and washing the dirty water tank. It can also mix detergent into the water tank in a controlled manner with a 600ml of eufy solution.

I've noticed that any carpet that the robot crosses will come into contact with the rough Velcro like fastener on mounts, which could cause abrasions.
