I tested a Eufy robot vacuum with a built-in handheld vac - and it just dropped to 42% off

zdnet.com Maria Diaz 2025-09-18 11:07:47

ZDNET's key takeaways The Eufy Clean E20 3-in-1 robot vacuum and handheld vacuum combination costs $650. The Eufy E20 performed very well in suction testing; it offers up to 8,000Pa of suction power and thorough edge cleaning; the robot vacuum's dustbin doubles as a handheld vacuum that includes a floor attachment and a crevice tool. Unfortunately, the handheld vacuum doesn't offer powerful suction like that of a standalone unit like a Dyson, and removing it from the robot isn't easy with one

Why Bats Don’t Get Cancer—and What That Means for Humans

When you think of longevity in animals, chances are that the Greenland shark will immediately come up. After all, researchers estimate that the enigmatic animal can live for at least 250 years. It turns out, however, that bats also hold their own when it comes to lifespan, with some species living up to 25 years—equivalent to 180 human years—and they tend to do it cancer-free.

‘Doctor Who’ Will Return… as an Animated Kids Show

When Doctor Who came to the controversial climax of its latest season recently, it did so with an uncertainty the series hasn’t faced for 20 years: there was then, and still is, no official news if the series will return. But while that’s still case, the BBC has announced news that should give some reassurance that Doctor Who will have some form of future on TV. It’s just perhaps not the way most fans would’ve hoped for. This morning the corporation confirmed that a new Doctor Who series was in

The backlash from the site’s editors was so swift and so vengeful that the organization quickly walked back its idea, announcing a temporary “pause” of the new feature.
