I have had this product for approximately a month now and I was very hesitant to purchase the refurbished version but I'm glad that I did!The Eufy 30C has proven to be very effective against dust, hair, cereal, and various other small items that find their way onto the floor throughout the day.My Eufy, affectionately named "Aunt Lydia" (from "The Handmaid's Tale") is used on my hardwood floors. I never thought I would be the type of person to purchase a robot vacuum because they just never seemed practical to me. I am a very clean person and enjoy having a spot free, and dust free home. When we purchased our new home, I loved out hardwood floors but after about 3 months, I realized how much of a pain it was to sweep them all the time. I hated stepping on little things that found their way to the floor. Now don't get me wrong, I have no issued pulling out a broom and sweeping, and I did so all the time... But once I purchased my Eufy, I realized how much time I am saving now.I think the Eufy is best for someone who is already a pretty clean person. Someone who isn't expecting the robot vacuum to do all the work. The Eufy works best with someone who also has no issues cleaning. I look at it as a partnership. When I step on something on the floor, I pick it up. Now, I could leave it and I know that my Eufy will get it later when she's scheduled to run, but I just pick it up. With both of us working together, I find that I'm hardly ever sweeping and I almost never step on anything like I always used to.I enjoy the functionality of the app and the ability to control Eufy from the app as well. There is also a remote that comes with the Eufy 30C, however, I've yet to use it because the smart phone app serves as more than enough. You can do numerous things from within the Eufy smart phone app such as setting a schedule, controlling the Eufy manually, adjusting the suction level, seeing battery life, and much more.When I was looking at robot vacuums, I was concerned about the randomness of the Eufy's cleaning manner when compared to the more expensive and more efficient laser and mapping robot vacuums. However, in the month I've had my Eufy, I have not seen any problems with the randomness of the Eufy's cleaning. She seems to efficiently and effectively vacuum everything in my 1300 square foot home. She also fits well underneath my couches and tables and gets everything vacuumed up.I have no issues with the size of the dust bin. My Eufy cleans on a schedule every single night and I find myself having to dump the bin every other day. Not bad.The battery is definitely sufficient for a home 1300 square foot. If you have something larger, don't expect as much efficiency. The smaller the home, the better the random cleaning patterns work on a single battery charge.I have no complaints with my Eufy. I wish it had the laser mapping feature but for the price point, this robot vacuum soars among the competition. I definitely recommend this vacuum. And on a side note, don't be afraid to purchase the refurbished version!
