The E28 does something no other model in this guide does. A handheld deep cleaner lifts off the station, so the same machine that runs the floors on a schedule can also be carried to a stained sofa cushion or a pet accident on carpet. The robot side is a self-cleaning roller mop with HydroJet water delivery and carpet detection that raises suction on rugs.
It reaches 20,000 Pa, the same label as the E25 but below the C30, and the handheld costs more upkeep than a simple dock. Against the X10 Pro Omni it gains the portable tool and a roller instead of two spinning pads. For a family with toddlers or pets that stain carpet, the detachable cleaner is worth the price tier.
There are two machines to care for: the robot and the portable unit. Empty and rinse the portable tank after every use, dry its brush head, and keep the roller tray clean. Spare rollers and brush heads are the ongoing cost. Store the handheld on the dock so it is charged when the carpet accident happens, because a flat battery defeats the point.
