The Roomba is the stronger dry vacuum of the two, with 22,000 Pa of suction against 15,000 Pa, and its AutoWash dock empties the bin and cleans the pads. The Eufy Omni C28 answers by emptying, washing and hot-air drying its roller mop, dispensing detergent automatically and refilling from a 2.2 L tank, so mopping asks even less of you. Pick the iRobot if you mainly vacuum and want maximum raw suction, and the Eufy Omni C28 for a balanced vacuum and mop at a lower price.

What the differences mean

Suction

The iRobot Roomba Plus 515 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock is rated at 22,000 Pa and the Eufy Omni C28 at 15,000 Pa, so the Roomba pulls more out of carpet. The eufy's roller mop, by contrast, scrubs harder than the Roomba's round pads.

Mopping design

The Eufy Omni C28 uses a roller that rinses itself continuously with clean water, while the Roomba wipes with round pads it lifts on carpet. Eufy owners report less streaking, and reviewers note the Roomba pads can pop off on cords.

Runtime and charging

The Eufy Omni C28 is rated at 251 minutes and the iRobot Roomba Plus 515 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock at 200, and the eufy recharges in about 3.5 hours against 6 for the Roomba. On a big floor the eufy gets through more before it docks.

Detergent

The Eufy Omni C28 dispenses cleaning solution automatically from its station, while the iRobot Roomba Plus 515 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock has no automatic dispenser and expects any detergent to be added by hand to the tank.

What owners say

Owners of both robots praise the hands-off dock above all. Eufy Omni C28 owners point to the HydroJet roller mop that rinses itself while it scrubs and to a 5-in-1 station that empties, washes, dries and refills without being asked, and they call it quiet and good value. Their recurring complaints are that the mop takes hours to dry and that it can catch on clutter. iRobot Roomba Plus 515 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock owners rate the vacuuming highly on wood, tile and low rugs and describe the LiDAR map as accurate, with the dock doing the bin emptying and pad washing. They warn that setup needs a 2.4 GHz network, that the mop is the weaker half and can snag on cords, and that the dirty-water tank has to be emptied promptly.
