In today’s market, there is an impressive array of robotic vacuum cleaners available which makes it challenging for consumers to navigate their options. With so many choices, it can be overwhelming to determine which model truly meets your needs. However, this competition is beneficial; it drives manufacturers— like Eureka, a company with over a century of experience since its founding in 1909 in Detroit— to push the boundaries of innovation and develop more advanced cleaning solutions.
The Eureka J15 Pro Ultra, which made its debut at IFA 2024 in Berlin, stands out not only for its exceptional performance as a vacuum but also for its unique self-cleaning base station, which is unlike anything else on the market. This innovative station addresses common issues faced by robotic vacuums— such as the tendency for traditional base stations to quickly become dirty— which ultimately undermines the convenience of owning a robotic vacuum.
A Clean Base Station (Finally)
One of the most notable features of the Eureka J15 Pro Ultra is the self-cleaning base station. Many robotic vacuums struggle with the gradual buildup of dirt and grime in their wastewater collection trays, which can lead to decreased mopping efficiency over time. The J15 Pro Ultra tackles this issue head-on with a unique cleaning scraper that activates after mopping.
This scraper effectively removes residual stains from the tray and collects them in a specially designed dusting area. The collected dirt is then subjected to high-temperature drying and funneled into a separate dust bag so that the tray remains clean and eliminating the need for manual cleaning. This design not only enhances the vacuum’s cleaning performance but also provides a hassle-free experience for users.

For the average consumer, this means less time spent worrying about maintenance and more time enjoying a clean home. The self-cleaning feature is especially appealing for those with busy lifestyles, as it reduces the frequency of manual upkeep. Instead of having to regularly check and clean the vacuum’s components, users can rely on the J15 Pro Ultra to handle this automatically, allowing them to focus on other tasks.
We're at #IFA2024 checking out some incredible tech and the new robot vacuum Eureka J15 Pro Ultra looks quite promising.
Here are a few cool features:

First Robot Vacuum Capable Of Active Hair-Cutting
Another groundbreaking feature of the J15 Pro Ultra is its FlexiRazor™ technology which addresses the common problem of hair tangling in vacuum brushes. Unlike traditional anti-tangling brushes, FlexiRazor™ uses active detangling mechanisms to slice through hair and maintain optimal cleaning performance. This technology reduces hair entanglement by 99% and makes sure that the brush roll remains clean and functional without the need for frequent manual cleaning.

The J15 Pro Ultra also boasts a powerful suction capability with a maximum of 16,200 Pa. This impressive suction power allows the vacuum to effectively remove 99% of household debris from various surfaces including deep-pile carpets and hard floors, according to the company. The advanced fan design enhances airflow and maximizes the motor’s efficiency; even the most stubborn particles are removed with ease.
In addition to its powerful suction, the J15 Pro Ultra features the innovative ScrubExtend technology which enhances its mopping capabilities. This system allows the mop to extend outward so that it reaches edges and corners effectively. With a precision of 1.36 mm, it covers 98.95% of the edges and you can make sure no dirt is left behind. The durability of the ScrubExtend system is also noteworthy with rigorous testing showing that it can withstand 100,000 extension cycles.

The J15 Pro Ultra also incorporates IntelliView™ AI technology which optimizes its cleaning performance by intelligently classifying debris. This advanced AI system distinguishes between wet and dry messes so that the vacuum can adjust its cleaning methods accordingly. When it encounters wet spills for instance, the vacuum prioritizes mopping and lifts the roller brush to prevent wet debris from clogging the dust bin. The AI system also adjusts the speed of the side brushes to minimize debris scattering.
This cutting-edge robotic vacuum is set to hit the U.S. market in November 2024— we will update this article once the pricing information is available.
