My parents are looking to pick one up for an apartment in Portugal so not looking to spend big. Just for picking up sand and dirt over the odd few weeks they are down. They have a roborock at home which they love.

Was still under warranty so Eufy are replacing the entire unit which is pretty brilliant. I am interested in trying to repair my old unit as they don't want it back. The brush motors seem to be hard to come by - only seem to be available from Eufy and only in USA. Has anyone had any luck getting them or does anyone have a dead Eufy that might have a working motor?

Most of them seem to be coming from china so could take awhile to arrive but they seem to be there anyways.

If buying for Portugal, consider buying from amazon.ie you'll get a euro plug..

How did you resolve it (seems like it can relate to a few different issues) With Error 13 it no longer chargers and as such can not be used. Thanks

DeadSkin wrote: » Open all doors, remove any obstacles shoes cables etc, I even put the kitchen chairs up on the table. Let it off on its merry way and will create a map. I think then you can assign rooms, can't really remember. There is an option to create invisible walls too. You can do the same for upstairs. With the app you can then tell it to vacuum the kitchen by selecting that room and clean.
