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.
Which one to buy if
- vacuuming thick carpet is the priority
The iRobot Roomba Plus 515 Combo Robot + AutoWash Dock is rated at 22,000 Pa, well above the Eufy Omni C28, so it lifts more from carpet pile.
- you want the mopping half done properly
The Eufy Omni C28 scrubs with a self-rinsing roller mop, where the Roomba wipes with round pads that can snag.
- you want fewer refills and longer runs
The Eufy Omni C28 is rated at 251 minutes against 200 and refills from its own 2.2 L tank at the station.
- you want cleaning solution dosed for you
The Eufy Omni C28 dispenses detergent automatically, while the Roomba needs it poured in by hand.

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.
