6 Drawbacks of the Eufy RoboVac L35

Bulky self-empty base The self-empty base takes up serious floor space, making it hard to fit in tight corners or small rooms.

No auto mop-lifting The vacuum lacks mop-lifting, so you must set no-go zones before it hits any carpet to avoid wetting rugs.

Requires manual carpet prep Without auto mop-lifting, you need to manually configure no-go zones for every carpeted area, which is inconvenient.

Base design limits placement The large base can’t be tucked away easily, forcing you to sacrifice floor space in high-traffic areas.

No smart carpet detection Unlike some competitors, the L35 can’t automatically raise the mop when it senses carpet, so you must plan ahead.

Annoying workaround needed These two caveats—bulky base and no mop-lifting—are frustrating on an otherwise solid vacuum, requiring extra effort to avoid issues.
