Eufy (an Anker sub-brand) is one of the most trusted names in robot vacuum manufacturing. And we’ve spotted a fantastic deal on one of its most reliable cleaners.
Buy the Eufy X8 from Box now and you can pick it up for just £246.99, down from an RRP of £449.99. Sadly, this discount is not available in the US.
Is this deal as good as it seems? The X8 has been on sale for two years now, which means that its day-to-day price is £50 lower than when it first went on sale in 2021. Hunt around elsewhere and you’ll see it for £299. And we’d still say that’s a good price for it.
Previously, Box has offered the X8 for £260, so this deal represents an extra £13 off the cheapest price it has been previously, and over 50% off the price it originally sold for. And Eufy robot vacuums are already well-priced for their feature sets. All in all, it’s rare to find a robot vacuum of such quality for this price. Our verdict: go for it.
There aren’t many in stock, so we’d say that if you want one, don’t delay.
Eufy
If you’re wondering whether it’s the right robot vacuum for you, here are some of the Eufy X8’s best features:
- Twin turbines each with 2,000Pa suction: the Eufy X8’s suction power is strong enough to clean both carpets and hard flooring – and it’ll pick up pet hair without a problem.
- It’s low profile at just 9.8cm high, so it should be able to vacuum under sofas and beds (its dimensions are 34.5 x 34.5 x 9.8cm).
- It features laser navigation: the X8 will clean efficiently even in low light and it’ll spot and avoid obstacles.
- Precision mapping technology: The X8 will build an accurate map of your home. It will even create separate maps for different floors. In the app, you can set up customised cleaning for specific rooms, target cleaning to one room, or add no-go zones for the robot to avoid.
- UltraPack dust compression: The X8’s powerful suction means that it’ll tightly pack the dustbin with dust and debris, meaning you’ll need to empty it less often.
- It has voice control via Alexa or Google Assistant.
We’ve tested the slightly pricier Eufy X8 Hybrid, which mops as well as vacuums, and we rate it as one of the best robot vacuums you can buy.
