With 20,000Pa Industrial-Grade Suction, This Eufy Robot Vacuum and Mop Hits a New Low on Amazon

Gizmodo09-07-2025
Theory is that mop-capable robot vacuums are a great idea, but in application, the performance doesn't nearly equal real cleaning ability. The majority of models leave dust, dirt or streaks behind which can be disheartening when you desire floors to be gleaming clean.
That's where the eufy E25 Omni robot vacuum and mop combo is good at: With industrial-grade suction power, it ensures your floors are left immaculate after every clean. Few brands offer anything close to the 20,000Pa of suction that eufy delivers here, which makes it a rare find for those who want professional-level results at home.
For Prime Day, this model is available at an all-time low price, but you'll need to be a Prime member to claim the deal on Amazon: It has fallen to a mere $699, from its regular price of $1,199 and that's a staggering 42% discount on this model.

What sets the eufy E25 Omni apart is its 20,000Pa Turbo Suction which competes with professional cleaning equipment. This level of suction enables it to pick up even the most embedded dirt and dander from carpets and hard floors. The HydroJet mopping system then fills in the vacuuming by scrubbing and cleaning your floors to leave them with a deep-down clean below the surface dust. The zero-tangle brush style is also a huge advantage for pet or long hair families as it does not permit hair to curl around the brush and needs less upkeep.
Edge-to-corner deep cleaning is another feature highlight of the E25 Omni: Its advanced sensors and mapping technology allow it to clean into corners and along edges where dirt accumulates. The obstacle avoidance feature keeps it from bumping into furniture and other objects with which it shares your house so that you needn't worry about it getting stuck or missing spots.
Among the most low-maintenance is the all-in-one station, auto-emptying and self-cleaning: When each cleaning cycle is complete, the robot returns to its charger, empties the dustbin and cleans itself which means you can do a tremendous amount of hands-off maintenance. This saves a massive amount of time and means you can go (up to 7) weeks without ever laying hands on the vacuum.
If you're looking for a robot vacuum that delivers industrial-grade cleaning, the eufy E25 Omni is the clear winner. With its current Prime Day price, there's never been a better time to upgrade your cleaning routine.

Elon Musk's SpaceX Moves Bitcoin For The First Time In 3 Years: Is A Sell-Off Incoming?

Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. SpaceX has reportedly moved parts of its Bitcoin holdings after a long period of dormancy. Cryptocurrency intelligence platform Arkham said Tuesday on X that a wallet linked to the Elon Musk-led space exploration and technology company had moved about 1,300 BTC worth over $153 million, marking the first time the wallet has been touched since June 2022. 'SPACEX JUST MOVED BITCOIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 3 YEARS,' Arkham wrote. 'They sent 1.3K BTC ($153M) to a fresh address this morning.' Don't Miss: 7,000+ investors have joined Timeplast's mission to eliminate microplastics— — no wallets, just price speculation and free paper trading to practice different strategies. The report has raised questions about the purpose of the transfer, with moves like this typically indicative of a wallet custody adjustment or an impending sell-off. SpaceX did not immediately respond to a Benzinga request for comment. According to Arkham data, the SpaceX-linked wallet still holds nearly 7,000 BTC worth over $830 million. Meanwhile, at last look, the transferred 1,300 BTC has not moved from the recipient address. The recent asset movement comes as SpaceX's lucrative government contracts have reportedly come under scrutiny from the Trump administration following Musk's row with President Donald Trump. Meanwhile, amid this uncertainty, the firm is seeking to raise over $1 billion to secure a $400 billion valuation. Trending: Grow your IRA or 401(k) with Crypto – . SpaceX's Bitcoin Exploration Musk first disclosed that SpaceX had added Bitcoin to its balance sheet in July 2021, without revealing how much the firm had invested in the asset. But reporting from blockchain sleuths suggests that the firm purchased nearly 26,000 BTC for about $860 million in 2021 at an average price of $33,000 per coin. Sometime down the line, however, the reporting suggests that the firm reduced its holdings to just over 8,000 BTC. This aligns with Wall Street Journal findings in August 2023, indicating that the firm had sold the asset. Similarly, Tesla purchased over 43,000 BTC worth $1.5 billion in February 2021, according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings. The firm cited a need 'for more flexibility to diversify and maximize returns' on its cash as the reason for its decision. Like SpaceX, Tesla has also significantly reduced its Bitcoin holdings to just over 11,500 BTC, worth $1.4 billion at last his firms have significantly reduced their Bitcoin holdings in recent years, Musk in 2022 said that he intended not to sell his holdings. He said this while discussing inflation concerns. 'It is generally better to own physical things like a home or stock in companies you think make good products, than dollars when inflation is high,' he said on X at the time. 'I still own & won't sell my Bitcoin, Ethereum or Doge fwiw.' Recently, Musk has stoked speculation that he has been quietly accumulating the asset by liking a post suggesting so. He has also said his proposed political party, the 'America party,' would 'embrace Bitcoin,' slamming fiat as 'hopeless' in the wake of his disillusionment with the government's decision to pass the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill." The act's provisions could add over $3 trillion to the national deficit in the next decade, according to estimates by the Congressional Budget Office in May.

Trump tariffs live updates: China truce extension expected, Lutnick discusses EU deal potential

The South China Morning Post reported on Sunday that "Beijing and Washington are expected to extend their tariff truce by another three months at trade talks in Stockholm beginning on Monday." The Hong Kong-based English-language newspaper, citing a source, added that during the extension "the two nations will commit to not impose additional tariffs on each other, nor escalate the trade war by other means." Also on Sunday, with President Trump in Scotland for negotiations with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that the EU has to open its markets for US exports if it wants to convince Trump to reduce the 30% tariff he's threatened to put in place August 1. "The question is, do they offer President Trump a good enough deal that is worth it for him to step off of the 30% tariffs that he set," Lutnick told Fox News, adding that Trump was looking to increase access for U.S. firms. On Friday, Trump put the odds of a trade deal with the European Union at "50-50," even as negotiators from both sides have expressed optimism about reaching a deal before the Aug. 1 deadline. Trump also said that letters dictating tariff rates for over 200 countries would go out soon while his administration works to clinch deals with larger trade partners, including the EU, India, and Canada. Trump said the US hasn't had a "lot of luck" with Canada and suggested he may impose threatened 35% levies on goods not covered by the US-Canada-Mexico trade agreement. President Trump last week touted a $550 billion investment in the US that Japan made as part of trade negotiations that set a 15% tariff on goods imported into the US from Japan. On Saturday, Japanese trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa suggested the money could be used to help finance a Taiwanese chipmaker building plants in the US. Akazawa did not name a specific Taiwanese company, but in March, Taiwan's TSMC announced a $100 billion investment in the US, on top of plans to build three plants in Arizona, one of which is already operating. "For example, if a Taiwanese chipmaker builds a plant in the U.S. and uses Japanese components or tailors its products to meet Japanese needs, that's fine too," he said. In any case, the Japan trade deal may have set a precedent for Trump's new baseline tariff rate. As the US finalized the deal with Japan and advanced talks with the EU, Trump said tariffs would range from 15% to 50%, with tougher partners facing higher rates. Trump's April "Liberation Day" tariffs had set a baseline rate of 10% on all US trading partners.

LG says consumers rushed to buy appliances ahead of tariffs Tariffs remain a key concern for South Korean appliance maker LG Electronics ( The company said that if President Trump's blanket tariffs take effect on Aug. 1, it will adjust prices and move some production to its plants in Mexico and the US. LG produces its products worldwide, particularly in South Korea, China, and Vietnam. On Aug. 1, imports from South Korea face a 25% tariff, while those from Vietnam face a 20% tariff. Imports from China are estimated to face tariffs of roughly 50%, though that could change after US and Chinese officials meet in Sweden for the next round of trade talks. According to LG, consumers rushed to purchase items in the first half of the year to avoid tariffs. Still, the company's net profit fell 3.1% in Q2 as operating costs increased. "Some consumers have been rushing to make purchases before the tariffs take effect," an executive said on the earnings call. "In the first half of 2025, we achieved approximately 3% growth year over year, higher than the market demand with new product launches and efficient sales operations, continuing to strengthen our market presence." But that pull-forward in demand could signal weakness ahead in the months to come if trade tensions escalate again. "A rise in product costs driven by the 50% tariff on steel and reciprocal tariffs that are set to be applied in the latter half of the year could translate into greater uncertainties for the market price," the executive said. "Additionally, shifts in the US government's trade policies and weakening consumer sentiment cast doubt on the demand outlook for home appliances." This isn't the first time LG has grappled with US protectionist policies. In 2018, during Trump's first term, washing machine prices rose when Trump targeted the industry with tariffs. Japan says $550 billion investment could finance Taiwanese chipmaker in US The $550 billion President Trump said Japan gave to the US "to lower their tariffs a little bit," could be used to help finance a Taiwanese chipmaker building plants in the US, the Associated Press reported Saturday. Trump on Thursday called the $550 billion "seed money" and that 90% of profits from the money invested would go to the US. "It's not a loan or anything, it's a signing bonus," Trump said.

EU head to meet with Trump this weekend in bid to clinch deal Bloomberg reports that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will meet with President Trump this weekend as he travels to his golf club in Scotland in a bid to secure a trade deal.

On Friday, Trump put the odds of a deal at "50-50." From the report: Trump: 'We haven't really had a lot of luck with Canada' President Trump on Friday expressed pessimism on US trade negotiations with Canada, suggesting he may simply impose threatened 35% tariffs on Canadian goods not covered by the existing US-Canada-Mexico trade agreement. "We haven't really had a lot of luck with Canada. I think Canada could be one where there's just a tariff, not really a negotiation," he said. More from Reuters: Boston Beer Company says strong profits helped brewer absorb tariff costs The Boston Beer Company (SAM) continues to feel the effects of President Trump's tariffs, but a strong quarter of sales and profit is helping the Samuel Adams brewer absorb some of those cost increases. Boston Beer expects tariffs to add about $15 million to $20 million in costs for the full year. Previously, it modeled tariff costs of $20 million to $30 million. Expect the company to raise prices by 1% to 2% to offset some of the costs as well, executives said. Boston Beer did see tariffs negatively affect its gross margin toward the end of the second quarter, but it benefited from improved brewery efficiencies. For the second quarter, the company reported profits of $5.45 per share on revenue of $625 million, versus estimates for earnings of $4.00 per share on $588 million, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence. "Right now, I think we're very happy with the performance," Boston Beer CEO Michael Spillane said on the earnings call. "Not only that, but that's allowed us to offset some of the tariffs that we've seen so far."

Japan, US differ on how trade-deal profits will be split Japan said Friday that profits from the $550 billion investment deal with the US will be shared based on how much each side contributes.

The White House had announced earlier in the week that the US would retain 90% of the profits from the $550 billion US-bound investment and loans that Japan would exchange in return for reduced tariffs on auto and other exports to the US. This would mean that returns would be split 10% for Japan and 90% for the US, according to the White House official, and that it would be "based on the respective levels of contribution and risk borne by each side."

Keurig Dr. Pepper brewer sales volume drops 22%, CEO says tariff impacts 'will become prominent' Keurig Dr. Pepper CEO Tim Cofer said that tariffs are putting additional pressure on the company in an earnings call Thursday, especially when it comes to its coffee business, which KDP expects to be "subdued" for the remainder of the year. "Commodity inflation will build as we roll into the back half and we roll into our higher cost hedges on green coffee," Cofer said. "The tariff impacts will become prominent. And we all know that tariff situation is a bit fluid." Keurig is one of the biggest coffee importers in the US, along with Starbucks (SBUX) and Nestle (NSRGY). The US sources most of its coffee from Brazil, which is set to face 50% tariffs on its products on Aug. 1, and Colombia, which faces a tariff rate of 10%. In Keurig's coffee business, appliance volume decreased 22.6% during the quarter, reflecting impacts of retailer inventory management, and K-Cup pod volume decreased 3.7%, reflecting category elasticity in response to price increases, the company reported. "Our retail partners will likely continue to manage their inventory levels tightly, in particular on brewers," Cofer commented. "And then finally, you know we did a round of pricing at the beginning of the year. We've announced another round of pricing that will take effect next month, and we'll need to closely monitor how that elasticity evolves." Read more about Keurig earnings here.

From the report: Read more here (subscription required). Europe approves $100B-plus tariff backup plan A report in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday said that the European Union has now approved its retaliatory tariff package on US goods that could start in August if no trade agreement is reached. The EU announced on Wednesday that it will hit the US with 30% tariffs on over $100 billion worth of goods in the event that no deal is made and if President Trump decides to follow through with his threat to impose that rate on most of the bloc's exports after Aug. 1. The US exports, which would include goods such as Boeing (BA) aircraft, US-made cars and bourbon whiskey would all face heavy tariffs that match Trump's 30% threat. The approval of the package comes despite the growing optimism that the US and EU will reach a deal that would put baseline tariffs on the bloc at 15%, matching the level the US applied to Japan. The EU is keen to reach a deal with the US but as a cautionary measure has approved 30% tariffs if a deal is not made.

Keurig Dr. Pepper brewer sales volume drops 22%, CEO says tariff impacts 'will become prominent' Keurig Dr. Pepper CEO Tim Cofer said that tariffs are putting additional pressure on the company in an earnings call Thursday, especially when it comes to its coffee business, which KDP expects to be "subdued" for the remainder of the year. "Commodity inflation will build as we roll into the back half and we roll into our higher cost hedges on green coffee," Cofer said. "The tariff impacts will become prominent. And we all know that tariff situation is a bit fluid." Keurig is one of the biggest coffee importers in the US, along with Starbucks (SBUX) and Nestle (NSRGY). The US sources most of its coffee from Brazil, which is set to face 50% tariffs on its products on Aug. 1, and Colombia, which faces a tariff rate of 10%. In Keurig's coffee business, appliance volume decreased 22.6% during the quarter, reflecting impacts of retailer inventory management, and K-Cup pod volume decreased 3.7%, reflecting category elasticity in response to price increases, the company reported. "Our retail partners will likely continue to manage their inventory levels tightly, in particular on brewers," Cofer commented. "And then finally, you know we did a round of pricing at the beginning of the year. We've announced another round of pricing that will take effect next month, and we'll need to closely monitor how that elasticity evolves." Read more about Keurig earnings here.

Europe approves $100B-plus tariff backup plan A report in the Wall Street Journal on Thursday said that the European Union has now approved its retaliatory tariff package on US goods that could start in August if no trade agreement is reached. The EU announced on Wednesday that it will hit the US with 30% tariffs on over $100 billion worth of goods in the event that no deal is made and if President Trump decides to follow through with his threat to impose that rate on most of the bloc's exports after Aug. 1. The US exports, which would include goods such as Boeing (BA) aircraft, US-made cars and bourbon whiskey would all face heavy tariffs that match Trump's 30% threat. The approval of the package comes despite the growing optimism that the US and EU will reach a deal that would put baseline tariffs on the bloc at 15%, matching the level the US applied to Japan. The EU is keen to reach a deal with the US but as a cautionary measure has approved 30% tariffs if a deal is not made.
