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.
Samsung
Samsung suits households that want the big appliances and the smart kit working from a single app, with spare parts held for 10 years after purchase. You pay a premium against Exquisit and Bauknecht for that joined-up range, and the robot vacuum is the weakest part of the picture.

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.
Samsung
Pros
- The listed washing machine runs at 32 kWh a year, so a weekly habit stays cheap to run.
- A single app covers the kit, with a mobile app included, hub, sensor and plug in one place, and no hub required.
- Protocols matter, thread and zigbee and ecosystems smartthings and matter let existing sensors and plugs join rather than be replaced.
Cons
- Warranty of 2 years is short next to the 10 years parts commitment, so a machine can outlive its cover.
- Robot vacuum suction of 6,000 Pa sits well under the 15,000 Pa site median, so deep carpet is not its strength.
- The market listed is GB alone, so delivery and installation terms are given for that market only.
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
Samsung
Who it suits
- Households replacing a full white goods set, since washing machine, dryer and dishwasher and WW11DB8B95GBU1, RL38C776ASR/EU, NV7B5750TAK-U4 cover washer, fridge, oven and hob in one range.
- Households already running SmartThings, with matter, thread and zigbee and no hub needed, so appliances and sensors share one app.
- Energy-minded households, where 32 kWh a year sets a low running cost for frequent loads.
Who should look elsewhere
- Budget buyers: Exquisit covers the same core appliances, while this range opens at $649.
- Shoppers who want a cooker in the same range: Bauknecht lists one and this range does not, so check Bauknecht first.

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.
Samsung
How much does a Samsung appliance cost at the entry end?+
The listed starting price is $649, and it comes from a countertop convection microwave rather than a washing machine or fridge, so a full kitchen set sits above that figure. These are single purchases rather than subscriptions, so the entry price is the number to plan around rather than a figure that renews later.
How long is the warranty, and will parts still be available later?+
Warranty cover on the appliances runs for 2 years, and spare parts are held for 10 years, with a spare parts shop listed as well. For a fitted kitchen the parts figure is the more useful of the pair, since a failed pump or door seal takes longer to sort than a simple swap. Read the terms, since a parts promise and a warranty are different cover.
