Robot vacuums are handy gadgets for keeping your home clean, and many newer models also integrate mopping capabilities. This isn’t anything new. What makes Eufy’s new Omni E28 robot vacuum so interesting is that it also comes with a detachable portable deep cleaner, which Eufy says is a world’s first. The other model announced today, the E25, is a more traditional robot vacuum with mopping capabilities, but both integrate Eufy’s proprietary HydroJet self-cleaning mop system.
The Omni E28 is probably the robot vacuum you’re most interested in, and for good reason – it’s more than just a robot vacuum. It comes with a detachable portable deep cleaner with a flexible hose that pulls out from the robot vacuum’s base station. This lets you clean spills and messes on furniture, carpets, stairs, and other surfaces. The detachable motor can be used to power different attachments, and the E28 base station water tank can be removed and used as a portable deep cleaner for targeted stain removal.
This isn’t the first time Eufy has launched a vacuum with handheld capabilities. The Eufy 3-in-1 E20, on display at CES 2025, is a robot vacuum, handheld vacuum, and upright vacuum in one. We’re currently testing the E20 in the CNET Labs, and our technicians love using it. “[It’s] very easy to use, and has a lot of customizable options for different cleaning needs,” said Schylar Breitnstein. “It’s my favorite robot vacuum.”
In terms of vacuuming power, the E28 has 20,000 Pascals (Pa), the same as the E25. That puts them slightly below the E20, which boosts to 30,000Pa when handheld and 8,000Pa in robot vacuum mode. Both come with dual roller brushes to help remove dust and hair deep in carpets — an important feature if you have pets. There’s also a retractable DuoSpiral brush, which Eufy says can help prevent hair tangles and reduce maintenance. Last, but not least, both robot vacuums come with a pop-up “CornerRover arm” that extends to clean corners and edges.
As mentioned, the E28 and E25 come with a HydroJet self-cleaning mop. It has a dual scraper that automatically cleans the mop drum 360 times per minute, scraping dirty water off the surface of the floor. The mopping system also has 15 Newtons (N) of downward pressure, which is equivalent to 3.3 pounds. Eufy says this is the highest pressure in the industry for deep cleaning hard floors.
The Eufy E28 and E25 will be available for pre-order today, April 7, at eufy.com. The E28 will be available through Eufy and Amazon starting April 23 for $999. The E25 without the portable deep cleaner will be available starting in June for $799 and will also be available for pre-order through Eufy on April 23.
