What the differences mean
Mopping
The Eufy E28 mops, washes, dries and lifts its roller pad at the dock and doses detergent. The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock is a vacuum only, with no water tank or mop, so it cannot clean hard-floor spills.
Portable deep cleaner
The Eufy E28 includes a handheld cleaner that lifts out of the dock for sofas, car seats and stains. The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock has no such attachment, so upholstery and stairs need a separate tool.
Suction power
The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock is rated at 30,000 Pa against 20,000 Pa on the Eufy E28, so the iRobot is the harder dry vacuum. Both handle everyday debris.
Runtime and recharge
The Eufy E28 is rated for 216 minutes per charge against 120 for the iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock. The Eufy covers much more floor, though the iRobot recharges a little faster in about 3 hours.
Wi-Fi and dock size
The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi, while the Eufy E28 is 2.4 GHz only, and its dock is far smaller at 213 x 172 x 290 mm against the Eufy's 369 x 461 x 436 mm.
Which one to buy if
- you want one machine for floors and upholstery
The Eufy E28 mops and ships a portable deep cleaner, while the iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock is a vacuum only.
- you only want vacuuming and the most suction for less money
The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock has 30,000 Pa against 20,000 Pa and is the cheaper of the two.

The iRobot Roomba Max 715 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty Dock has a 213 x 172 x 290 mm dock that fits a hallway, against the much larger Eufy station.

The Eufy E28 runs 216 minutes against 120 and washes and dries its roller mop at the dock.

What owners say
Owners of the Eufy E28 describe a robot that maps the whole home on its first run and then mostly runs itself, and the feature they single out is the portable deep cleaner for sofas and upholstery. Hard floors and rugs come out visibly cleaner, the dock empties, washes and dries the mop and doses detergent, and owners find it quiet while cleaning. The recurring complaints are a loud dock during emptying and mop washing, a tall heavy body that cannot reach under low cabinets, and more routine maintenance than a basic robot.
