Keeping your home spotless isn’t always an easy task, but here to make things just a little simpler for you is Eureka. The floor care brand has now launched a new generation of vacuum cleaners that promise to deliver the “deepest cleaning with the most value” for its customers, and they’re making their debut at the 2018 International Home + Housewares Show (IHHS) in Chicago.

The new lineup includes the Eureka PowerPlush Lightweight Cordless and a two-model series; the Eureka PowerSpeed Turbo Spotlight, and the Eureka PowerSpeed Turbo Spotlight with Swivel Plus. But regardless of which vacuum you choose, you should have a machine that is powerful, easy to maneuver, and loaded with features and accessories to make tidying up a cakewalk.

The Eureka PowerPlush Lightweight Cordless vacuum may be smaller than its siblings, but it still promises full-sized cleaning power as well as a soft brushroll that is optimized for hard floors. That said, the vacuum is also capable of cleaning a wide variety of surfaces, so you can take it from your carpet to your wood floors seamlessly.

The Eureka PowerSpeed Turbo Spotlight, on the other hand, promises to be a premium vacuum with a series of premium features. For example, there’s the new LED Headlight, which illuminates tough-to-see spots, as well as a pet Turbo Brush. There’s also the Eureka PowerSpeed Turbo Spotlight with Swivel Plus, which boasts everything the Spotlight does, including a swivel steering nozzle that is meant to take you under and around furniture with ease.

“Almost everyone can recall having had a Eureka vacuum in their home, yet after more than 100 years of innovation, we are just getting started,” said Ting Ting Cheng, vice president at Midea America. “We are innovating in technology and design like never before to bring consumers products that are powerful, multi-purpose, and affordable to fit every lifestyle.”

Both of the Eureka PowerSpeed Turbo Spotlight vacuums are available now on Amazon, while the Eureka PowerPlush Lightweight Cordless will appear on digital shelves in April. Come May, you’ll also be able to check out these vacuums at Walmart stores as well as via Walmart.com.

Eureka shows off an innovative robot vacuum with a belt mopping system at CES 2024

When it comes to robot vacuums and mops, most models employ one of two methods to clean your floors -- a vibrating mop plate or spinning mop pads. Eureka is doing things a bit differently this year, as the team revealed the J20 Robotic Vacuum and Floor Washer at CES 2024, which uses an innovative new belt mop design.

The so-called RollRenew mopping system features a cycling belt mop, a dual water tank, and five water nozzles. As the robot rolls its mop across your floors, the nozzles will continuously spray water, cleaning up stains and soaking up spills. The dirty portion of the mop is then cleaned by a scraper located under the robot, forcing the dirty water into a wastewater reservoir.

Adding a robot vacuum to your home is an easy way to automate your floor-cleaning chores. Most robots produced today can vacuum, mop, and take care of minor maintenance tasks such as emptying dustbins and cleaning their mopheads. But no matter how fancy the robot, it'll eventually stop working and need to be replaced.

However, the life span of a robot vacuum varies greatly from product to product. Depending on how often you're performing preventative maintenance, you might be able to extend its life and keep it in your home for years. Here's a look at how often you should replace your robot vacuum, as well as things you can do to make it last longer.

Ecovacs introduces three new robot vacuums for homes of all sizes
The new ECOVACS products on a kitchen floor.

Ecovacs is one of the biggest names in the world of robot vacuums, and it’s looking to continue that dominance in 2023 with three new product launches. Ranging in price from $650 to $1,300, the trio of DEEBOT robot vacuums is designed for smart homes of different sizes and different needs, ensuring there’s something for every family.

The Deebot T10 Omni is the most compelling of the three -- and it’s also the most expensive at $1,300. It brings a lot to the table, however, as it features the new Ozmo Turbo 2.0 mopping system with spinning brushes, the ability to take voice commands without a third-party product, and a docking station with auto-cleaning and auto-emptying capabilities. It’s designed for homes of all sizes, but it should be the most enticing for large families that see plenty of foot traffic (or paw traffic) through their house.
