eufy E25 Robot Vacuum Review: Roller Mop Plus an Arm for the Corners
Our verdict: 4.4 / 5
The E25 takes the self-cleaning roller mop from eufy’s C28 and adds the things bigger homes need: more suction, an extending arm for corners, AI obstacle avoidance, auto refill and a 125-minute runtime. For a pet home with lots of hard floor, it’s one of the most well-rounded robots in its range. Its catch is the 2.4 GHz-only Wi-Fi and a mop lift that won’t clear thick rugs.

eufy has quietly become one of the more interesting robot brands, mainly because of its roller mop. Instead of dragging a pad, the E25 scrubs with a roller that is rinsed with clean water twice every second, so it doesn’t smear dirt from the hallway into the kitchen.
The E25 builds on that with an extending CornerRover arm, AI obstacle avoidance and a station that refills water by itself. This review explains what those features do, where the E25 falls short and how it compares with eufy’s cheaper C28. We based it on eufy’s specs and the design, not on our own home testing, and we flag eufy’s claims.

What we like
A mop that doesn’t get dirtier as it goes
With a pad mop, the first room gets the cleanest pad and the last room gets the dirtiest. The E25’s roller is sprayed with clean water about twice a second while it works, and the dirty water is pulled away. That keeps the cleaning surface fresh for the whole run, which shows most on light-colored tile and in kitchens.
The arm reaches where round robots can’t
Round robots leave a thin line along baseboards and miss the inside of corners. CornerRover extends out to scrub along baseboards and around furniture legs. eufy says it works on hard floors and short carpet. It won’t make corners perfect, but it covers the gap that bothers people most.
It refills itself
The C28’s station washes and dries the mop, but the E25’s station also refills the robot’s water. That’s what makes 75 days of hands-off dust collection actually feel hands-off. You still top up the clean tank and pour out the dirty one, just not after every run.
Long runtime and multi-floor maps
A 125-minute runtime in vacuum-and-mop mode is enough for most family homes in one go. It also stores up to five floor plans and detects which floor it’s on, so you can carry it upstairs without remapping. If you live in a two-story home, check in the app whether it can save more than one floor map before you buy.
What could be better
- 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. If your router only broadcasts a combined or 5 GHz network, you may need to change router settings. Our guide on reconnecting a robot vacuum to Wi-Fi helps.
- Mop lift is 10.8 mm. Medium and thick rugs still need no-mop zones.
- Bigger station. Water tanks and the bag need space and an outlet.
- Price. It costs more than the C28, which has the same roller idea.
Who should buy it
- Pet homes with mostly hard floors
- Two-story homes, thanks to the 5-map memory
- Anyone who notices dirty edges and corners
- People who want a robot that refills its own water
Who should skip it
- Carpet-heavy homes, where higher suction matters more than mopping
- Buyers on a tight budget. The eufy C28 has the same style of mop for less.
- Homes with a 5 GHz-only network setup
eufy E25 vs eufy C28
| eufy E25 | eufy C28 | |
|---|---|---|
| Suction (maker) | 20,000 Pa | 15,000 Pa |
| Mop | HydroJet roller | HydroJet roller |
| Corner arm | Yes, CornerRover | No |
| Obstacle avoidance | AI obstacle avoidance | LiDAR, objects from ~3 cm |
| Auto water refill | Yes | No (collects waste water) |
| Runtime | 125 min | Not stated in listing |
| Check price | eufy E25 | eufy C28 |
If corners, clutter and less fuss with water matter to you, the E25 is worth the extra money. If you just want the roller mop on a smaller budget, the C28 is the better deal.
Tips to get the most out of it
- Map each floor separately the first time, then let auto floor switching take over.
- Turn on CornerRover for rooms with lots of furniture legs, like the dining room.
- Use eufy’s recommended solution or plain water, never bleach.
- Rinse the dirty-water tank each time you empty it. Odors start there.
- Clean the roller’s scraper area every couple of weeks to keep the HydroJet ports clear.
FAQ
Is the eufy E25 good for pet hair?
Yes. It has 20,000 Pa suction, DuoSpiral anti-tangle brushes and a sealed 3 L bag in the station. That combination handles shedding pets well on hard floors and short carpet.
What is the difference between the eufy E25 and C28?
The E25 adds more suction, the CornerRover arm, AI obstacle avoidance, automatic water refill and a stated 125-minute runtime. Both use the same style of HydroJet roller mop.
Does the eufy E25 work on 5 GHz Wi-Fi?
No. eufy lists 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. Most routers broadcast 2.4 GHz, but you may need to separate the bands during setup.
Can the eufy E25 handle more than one floor?
Yes. It stores up to five floor plans and switches automatically when you carry it to another floor.
Final word
The eufy E25 is a strong all-rounder for pet homes and families with lots of hard floor. The roller mop fixes the usual robot-mop problems, the arm handles edges, and the station takes care of water and dust. If you can live without the arm and auto refill, the C28 saves money. If you have a lot of carpet, look for higher suction instead.
