However, my biggest concern is that it doesn’t appear to have a user-removable battery (I hope I’m wrong). With the V1 Ultra, I had a difficult time just connecting to the Eufy Clean app, and once connected, I found only a handful of maintenance tips and how-to videos. Having used the V1 Ultra for a week or so, I can’t imagine I’ll ever go back to cleaning my hard floors the old way.

The Mach V1 Ultra is a fantastic all-in-one solution for vacuuming, mopping, and steam cleaning your hard floors. Triple Self Cleaning System: Post cleaning, just select the self-cleaning mode for triple action 1) washes the roller brush with cleaning fluid 2) circulates aqueous ozone to minimize odor 3) blows hot air to ensure the unit is dry for the next clean.Mind, the dirty water tank can be a bit fiddly to refit so be sure to position it carefully before giving it a firm push. For instance, Eufy’s robot vacuums run anywhere between 1,300 and 2,000 Pa suction power, and the newest Roborock S8 Pro robot vacuum boasts just 6,000 Pa of suction power. Most of the smart mops I’ve used have left lingering moisture that results in streaks and footprints and–at worst–could cause someone to slip and fall.

There’s a veritable plethora of cordless vacuum-mops on the market that you can read about in our guide to the best hard floor cleaners, but a steaming function has always been way beyond the scope of battery power. Reviewer Laura Cooke lives in a four bedroom house with her husband and two kids, aged four and six. Well, today I’m going to check out what the Mach V1 Ultra has to offer and then see how it performs.The V1 Ultra is just the beginning, and we look forward to sharing details of other products under our new MACH brand soon. However, in steam mode it’s only about 15 minutes which I consider more than enough for any areas that need a very deep clean. For some reason, the JetBlade doesn’t operate by default so you’ll need to tap the brush clean button three times to activate it. Kit includes: MACH V1 Ultra machine, Charging Dock, Filter, Cleaning Tool, Roller Brush, Cleaning Solution and 2 x Descaling Solution.

With a fully charged battery, you can use the V1 Ultra for up to 82 minutes in suction-only mode or Smart mode. If you’ve got dirty floors that you want to tackle, then this is the best hard floor cleaner that I’ve tested; if your floors have more regular amounts of dirt, then check out my guide to the best hard floor cleaners to find a cheaper alternative. The thing that struck me when setting up the Mach V1 Ultra was how heavy it felt (which I guess is no surprise as there is a tank full of water in there).

I assumed I would be able to do things like turn JetBlade drying on and off, and that it might be especially helpful for those who have a hard time using the small LCD screen.

Within minutes of opening the box it was getting a final charge, ready to tackle the mess of two caffeine-addled WFHers and an ever-shedding kelpie. Moreover, this thing is genuinely gorgeous and rammed with so many amazing design flourishes that you half wish for a cataclysmic household spillage event to occur just so you have an excuse to bring it out. Anyway, heading to the front of the machine, there’s an easily removable 820ml clean water tank with a built-in ozone generator which Eufy says works best with normal tap water and not filtered water.

Dyson tends to be the brand that you associate with cutting-edge vacuum designs and concepts, but with the arrival of the new Mach line of "premium cleaning products," Eufy -- the household brand of the Anker accessory empire -- is doing its best to inject a little innovation into this competitive market. Next, is the suction mode, where water is turned off, and the Eufy Mach V1 Ultra is used to suck up mess only. This sterilization technology is used to sanitize the floor, and later, sanitizes the vacuum itself, including the rolling brush. In fact I’d say it was marginally better at picking up larger items than the otherwise excellent Bissell CrossWave Cordless Max and Tineco Floor One S5 Pro.
