Our verdict on each
Eureka
Eureka suits buyers who want a self-emptying robot vacuum and mop with real suction, and its 22,000 Pa ceiling ranks high among the brands on site. Entry pricing of $129.99 keeps a first machine reachable, and robot vacuum, stick and upright all come from the same maker.
MOVA
Peak suction of 40,000 Pa puts MOVA near the front of the brands tracked here, so it suits buyers who prioritise power and a self emptying dock over the lowest ticket. Prices sit in mid field, and support runs on email, help centre and community only, with no phone line listed.

Pros and cons
Eureka
Pros
- Suction of 22,000 Pa ranks 12 of 46 brands on the site, so raw power is the strongest part of the package.
- Entry price of $129.99 lands below the €96.46 site median, so a first machine is a mainstream ticket rather than a premium one.
- A self empty dock, a spinning mop that lifts 12 mm and a 3,000 ml bin make long cleaning runs genuinely hands-off.
Cons
- The top machine costs $1,199.99, well above the €207.86 upper end of typical entry prices across the site.
- Suction of 22,000 Pa matches the 22,500 Pa figure but sits under the 50,000 Pa ceiling, so buyers chasing the very highest figures may look elsewhere.
- Mop lift of 12 mm matches the 12 mm median and does not reach the 15.24 mm top of the range.
MOVA
Pros
- Peak suction of 40,000 Pa places MOVA 2 among 46 brands ranked on that measure, well above the 15,000 Pa median across the brands tracked here.
- A self empty dock and lidar mapping both sit inside the range rather than being saved for one model, and the warranty runs 3 years.
- Robots keep cleaning when the connection drops, since they work offline, with a mobile app handling the rest.
Cons
- Support runs on email, help centre and community only, with no phone line listed for faults that stop a clean mid room.
- MOVA was founded in 2024, so the long term record on spare parts, firmware and resale is still short.
- Entry at $189 leaves MOVA 44 among 65 brands ranked on price entry, so the cheaper end is not a budget buy.
Who each suits
Eureka
Who it suits
- Homeowners who want a self-emptying robot vacuum and mop and care more about suction than carpet clearance
- Buyers after a 22,000 Pa suction figure, which ranks 12 of 46 brands on the site
- Shoppers who want robot-vacuum, stick, upright and wet-dry machines from one established maker
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want a handheld vacuum, since handheld is not among robot vacuum, stick and upright while robot vacuum, stick and upright and robot vacuum, stick and upright both list it
- Shoppers chasing the very highest mop lift figures, since 12 mm matches the 12 mm median rather than the 15.24 mm top
- Anyone set on a robot-vacuum-only catalogue, since Philips covers robot vacuum and wet dry while Eureka also makes stick and upright machines
MOVA
Who it suits
- Buyers who put the suction figure and dock hardware above the cheapest entry price, and who want lidar mapping on the entry robot too.
- Households that want one brand for the robot vacuum plus a stick, wet-dry or handheld, since MOVA's range covers robot vacuum, stick and wet dry.
- Shoppers in the markets MOVA sells to, which include the UK, Germany, France, Japan and the US under AU, BE and CA.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want uprights next to robot vacuums: MOVA's robot vacuum, stick and wet dry stop short of them, while Ewbank lists robot vacuum, stick and upright.
- Shoppers who prefer a short decision, since Philips covers robot vacuum and wet dry and nothing more.

Questions about each
Eureka
How much does the cheapest Eureka floor care cost?+
Eureka's entry price is $129.99. That sits below the €96.46 site median, so a first machine from the brand lands in the mainstream part of the market rather than at the budget end. The €42.39 lower quartile of entry prices across the site shows how much cheaper the cheapest machines elsewhere can be.
What is the most expensive Eureka model?+
The flagship in the range is priced at $1,199.99. Set against the €96.46 site median for entry prices, that is a large step up, and it also clears the €207.86 upper end of typical entry pricing. Buyers moving to the top of the range should budget the hardware cost in full, since the dock and mopping hardware sit in that price rather than the base model.
MOVA
How much does a MOVA robot vacuum cost?+
Robot vacuums enter the range at $189 and the flagship model costs $999. Those are the price of the machine itself rather than a recurring charge, so nothing renews after purchase. Budget separately for replacement filters, brushes and mopping pads, the parts that wear out on a robot used every day.
Which MOVA robot vacuum has the strongest suction?+
The flagship MOVA robot carries the headline figure of 40,000 Pa, and that places MOVA 2 among 46 brands ranked on peak suction. The entry robot sits lower on the same list, so suction is the reason to step up rather than a reason to buy the cheapest model.
