What is it?
The Eufy RoboVac 11S is the slim-profile entry in Eufy's RoboVac consumer line. At 2.85 inches tall, it was designed specifically to access under-bed and under-sofa spaces that standard-height robot vacuums (typically 3.5+ inches) cannot navigate. It is one of the best-selling budget robot vacuums globally due to its reliable performance and minimal price.
Who is it for?
Budget buyers in smaller homes or apartments with predominantly hard floors and low-pile carpet. Users who want under-furniture reach above all else — the slim profile is the 11S's primary differentiator. Those who do not need Wi-Fi connectivity or app control, and prefer simple remote control operation.

How it compares
The 11S versus the Roomba 694 ($179): the 11S is slimmer, cheaper, has a larger dustbin (0.6L vs 0.3L), but lacks Wi-Fi and voice assistant support. The Eufy RoboVac 25C adds Wi-Fi at $179. The 11S is the choice for under-furniture reach and budget; the Roomba 694 for app/voice control. Against the Shark ION RV750, the 11S wins on slim profile and price; the RV750 wins on Wi-Fi and dustbin size.
Limitations
- No Wi-Fi or app connectivity — remote control only
- No mapping — random reactive navigation
- Not ideal for heavy pet hair (bristle brushroll tangles)
- Triple-layer filter is not HEPA rated
- Not suitable for high-pile or shaggy carpets
FAQ
Is the Eufy RoboVac 11S Wi-Fi connected?
No. The RoboVac 11S uses an infra-red remote control and does not have Wi-Fi or app connectivity. For Wi-Fi and Alexa compatibility, consider the Eufy RoboVac 25C or G30.
How thin is the Eufy RoboVac 11S?
The 11S is 2.85 inches (7.2 cm) tall — one of the thinnest consumer robot vacuums available. Most standard robot vacuums are 3.5–4 inches tall; the 11S can access under-bed and sofa clearances that other robots cannot.
Does the Eufy RoboVac 11S work on carpet?
Yes. BoostIQ automatically increases suction when the robot transitions onto carpet. It handles low-pile and medium carpet well; high-pile or shaggy carpets may cause navigation difficulty.
How long does the RoboVac 11S battery last?
Up to 100 minutes on MAX mode or approximately 90–100 minutes on standard mode. It automatically returns to the dock when the battery is low.
Can I schedule cleaning with the Eufy RoboVac 11S?
Yes, using the included remote control you can set a single daily schedule. However, there is no app-based scheduling or voice control due to the lack of Wi-Fi.
