Eufy Omni S2 (robot vacuum cleaner Robot mop designed for homes with pets): our review

The dog has settled on the rug, leaving enough hair behind to suggest another dog might be forming. That is the sort of everyday nuisance the Eufy Omni S2 is aimed at. Its suction rating of 30000 Pa sits among the stronger advertised figures, making carpets a promising part of its specification. We like the ambition here: help with the hair that makes a room look overdue for a clean.

Pressure is only part of the story. Manufacturers measure suction differently, so the figure helps position this model without promising a clean carpet. The anti-tangle main brush adds another useful detail for homes with pets, where hair collecting around a brush can become a recurring chore. It strengthens the case for regular upkeep, although an anti-tangle design should not be read as freedom from brush maintenance.

Hoping to come home from work to floors that have already had some attention? Obstacle detection is relevant to that ambition. The specified 3D system gives this robot a means of detecting obstacles during cleaning. That description alone cannot tell you how consistently it will respond in a busy sitting room, so we would keep expectations grounded.

Preparation still comes first. Cables, socks and small objects need clearing before a run, as manufacturers advise. That matters if your sitting room doubles as a playroom or charging station. Vacuuming can become an appliance's job; putting things away remains a household negotiation.

Multi-floor mapping is a separate attraction for a house whose rooms extend beyond the ground floor. It supports maps for different floors, rather than requiring every level to share a layout. Carrying the robot between storeys remains your job. The useful distinction is between remembering another floor and getting there: only the former belongs to its mapping features.

A suction rating of 30000 Pa catches the eye, but kitchen tiles call for a different sort of help. This model also offers mopping and a mop that lifts on carpets. That combination gives it a clearer purpose in homes where hard flooring and rugs share the cleaning route. What happens when the kitchen opens straight onto a carpeted sitting room?

Mop lifting is the relevant feature at that boundary. The design raises the mop on carpet, helping separate damp floor care from vacuuming the fibres. It is a practical reason to favour this combination, without assuming that every rug will behave identically.

We would choose the mopping function for routine floor care rather than build the purchase around stubborn, dried marks. For unfinished, waxed or poorly sealed wooden flooring, manufacturers advise checking moisture tolerance before using a mop. A kitchen spill and a dusty hallway are different jobs; deciding which bothers you most makes the features easier to judge.

The strongest reason to choose this robot is the combination of pet-focused features and mixed-floor practicality. Dog hair on the sitting room rug gives the brush a purpose; kitchen tiles give mopping a purpose. Mop lifting connects those jobs. That is a persuasive combination if your aim is less routine vacuuming while keeping suitable hard floors looking cared for.

App compatibility also suits households that prefer managing an appliance through their phone. Multi-floor mapping has a clearer role when bedrooms and living spaces occupy separate storeys. In a flat, the pet-hair features and lifting mop may carry more weight in the decision. Choose around the work.

Before ordering, ask the retailer to confirm the dock's emptying, mop washing and drying functions, plus its footprint: those details are missing. A place beside the kitchen cupboards needs to accommodate the whole arrangement. Knowing what the dock handles will also help you judge how much routine care remains yours.
