I have had this vacuum for over a year now since Nov 2018, and this has been the best purchase ever. I literally run this thing 1 time a day, and sometimes 2 times a day, everyday, for the last year!We had a long-haired cat, so there is always fur. Our house is about 3000 sq ft, spread throughout 3 levels. We have dark hardwoods throughout our main floor, with many low pile area rugs. On the same level is a bathroom with tile and rugs, and a couple of bedrooms with a medium pile carpet. The vacuum moves freely throughout that level of my home, moving between hardwood, carpet, rugs, and tile with no issue!The only thing you have to watch for is cords and shoelaces. I solved that problem by tying some of my cords in a way where they don’t drag on the ground, or I use the boundary strips under some furniture pieces where I tuck the cords behind the strips. And don’t forget to pick up your shoes. But if it ever does get caught on a cord, cellphone charger, or shoelace, it has not damaged it; it simply causes the vacuum to get stuck and caught. I have found it easy to pull the item from the vacuum to “unwind” it. I empty the canister in between each “run”, although I have found that you can get away with 2 runs before you must empty, but it’s pretty full. It’s simple to empty, you dump it in the trash and use the provided brush tool to brush out the dust. My mom saw me doing it and thought what’s the point of having a robo vac if you have to do that, but I told her the 30 seconds it takes each day to empty the canister, is worth my time of not having to vacuum and sweet my 1000 square foot of floors on my first floor of my house.We also have another 1000 sq ft finished basement that we rarely use, but I carry it down there occasionally and let it run down there too. That floor is vinyl with area rugs, and again no issues, or moves between hard floor and low pile rug just fine. The only thing is bc the docking station is upstairs, I just have to go down and retrieve the vacuum after a few hours to bring it up to the charger docking station, but it’s not a big deal to me...still I love this thing so much, that I plan to get a second one to keep on that level of my house since my basement is a big room.Our third level is more bedrooms and bathrooms, which is again carpet and tile, these bathrooms have high pile rugs. It does sometimes have trouble going over the high pile rugs in the bathroom, but not where it has gotten stuck, it just usually bunches up the rug and pushes it to the side. So often I just pick up the rugs and set on the toliet so it can move around and vacuum in the bathroom better. On the carpets it always seems to collect more dirt and hair, probably bc my cat likes to lay there, so I typically only run it one time on the carpet and then need to empty the filter and remove any hair tangle from the vacuum brush.Also, I take apart the filter and clean it with mild soap and water once a quarter. So not every month as they suggest, but every few months. This seems to be find. I have replaced the filter a few times and bought a 12 pack of replacement filters and brushes for like $12 on Amazon. Have only had to use a few so far!Also since I use this every day, I don’t find that I have to regularly vacuum my area rugs or my hardwoods. It is just my husband and I, so many days we never even walk through out living or dining room, and the eufy is enough keep it maintained until it is time to mop. I do additionally still sweep in my kitchen with a broom as needed bc that is a high traffic area and there is food that can drop. Also the bedrooms that are carpet and also a high traffic area, I do still vacuum with my upright, but I found that having this Eufy supplementing my upright vac is a great help with all the pet hair!The noise level is not bad. It obviously had to make noise, but it is significantly quieter than my upright when you run it on the standard level, which I typically do. The max suction level is louder, but I usually only use that in our master bedroom if I want a deeper level clean on our carpet.Also sometimes it goes over larger things (such as a plastic ice crystal that fell off a Christmas garland or the shell of a cat nail) and does not pick them up (it sort of shoots them out behind it), but it’s not a big deal to me, bc I gets all the pet fur, human hair, dust, and dirt, which are the main things I want it to get. The rare things it can’t pick up, I can get myself.Bottom line is anyone who has pets, and a lot of open square footage, should get this! A couple hundred bucks for something that you will use every day is so so so worth it!I have never wrote a review this long, but that is how much I love and recommend this vacuum. I have lots to say about it bc I use it so much. I really do plan to eventually get a second one for another level in my home. Also I think this would make a great gift for someone who is “techy” and just enjoyed gadgets, or it would make a great gift from adult children to their mother, as this would save her a lot of time.

*UPDATE*This vacuum is going 2 years strong and is probably my favorite purchase of my life! If you do regular maintenance on it to keep it clean, it runs like a dream. We have both tile and carpet and it does a great job on both. I will say, I purchased this because of the low profile and it is just low enough to get stuck under a lot of things. That is the ONLY downside and I'm hoping when we move to have furniture tall enough for it to fit under! I cannot brag enough about how much I love this machine. We have 2 big boxer dogs and it sucks up every hair and keeps our house looking clean all the time. I run it at least every 2-3 days and it is a huge help in between whole house vacuum jobs. It does not meant to be an ONLY vacuum, you still need to get tight to the edges and small spots with a normal vacuum but this one is so dang helpful! Treat yourself or a friend...its amazing!**END UPDATE*I've had this for a few weeks now and let me tell you, its amazing. I had originally wanted the Roomba 960 but just couldn't justify spending 600$ on a robotic vacuum. I looked at so many products and reviews, this one caught my eye. It has amazing reviews from others and upon reading the description sounded like it couldn't be beat for the price. Yes it doesn't have all of the crazy bells and whistles of other vacuums, theres no fancy app, but the features of this vacuum greatly supersedes its competitors. It is extremely quiet. I work from home so that is a major plus to not have to hear it while i'm working. The suction is amazing, you can hear the auto boost feature start up when it rolls onto carpet or rugs, it somehow always makes it back to its base which surprises me. It tremendously helps the OCD in me that wants clean floors 24/7. I have 2 boxers and they shed a lot, this helps for sure! I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a robotic vacuum that does an amazing job at a very competitive price!
