Robot vacuums are a dime a dozen now, a rapid shift from the very limited options that were available only a few years ago, and are truly a must-have for any household. However, certain pain points remain with many robot vacuums available today. Many struggle with tangled hair, which is a huge problem if you have pets, while others don’t offer as much suction power as required, leading to a less-than-ideal clean-up. The biggest issue is maintaining and cleaning the robot and base station, which can be quite an involved chore. Eureka, a leading global brand in the space, addresses all of these concerns and more with the J15 Pro Ultra! Here’s what you need to know.
An industry-first base station that cleans itself!

Some high-end robot vacuum base stations have a wastewater collection function to help clear out the water tank and clean the mop pads. However, maintaining and cleaning the base station tray is a whole other matter. Over time, the tray will become increasingly dirty, which in turn will make the mop less effective and significantly reduce cleaning efficiency.
The problem, of course, is that these vacuums focus only on wastewater collection and not dirt and debris buildup. Unsurprisingly, base stations designed for simple water absorption for mop maintenance don’t do a good job of removing stubborn stains on the tray.
Compared to competing robot vacuums, the J15 Pro Ultra not only collects wastewater but also addresses debris buildup on the tray. Eureka fixes the problem by including a tray scraper. After the base station completes cleaning the mop, the scraper goes to work and thoroughly removes any residual stains, dirt, and debris from the tray, moving everything to a specially designed dust collection area.
The debris is then thoroughly dried and automatically collected into the dust bag during the next cleaning cycle. This simple but innovative tool makes manually cleaning the base station tray completely unnecessary.
Anti-hair tangling technology makes the J15 Pro Ultra an excellent option if you have pets
If you own a robot vacuum, you’ll be extremely familiar with the dreaded alert on your phone saying that the cleaning operation has stopped because the roller brush is stuck. Tangled hair, especially if you have pets, is a huge problem that not many robot vacuums are available to fix. If that’s a concern, the Eureka J15 Pro Ultra is the perfect robot vacuum for you.
Its exclusive FlexiRazor™ technology makes tangled hair a complete non-issue. Unlike other anti-tangle roller brushes that use stationary blades, the J15 Pro Ultra uses active detangling tech to rapidly slice through tangled hair and keep the robot cleaning at maximum efficiency and, more importantly, without your interference.
High-density blades cover the entire brush and operate at 400 times a minute with a 4mm reciprocating vibration to easily remove any wrapped hair. This reduces hair tangling by 99% and makes manually detangling and fixing the roller brush a thing of the past.
The same power as a canister vacuum, without the physical labor

Another industry-first, the Eureka J15 Pro Ultra has a whopping 16,200 Pa suction power. To put that into context, it’s double what you get with some high-end robot options and nearly four times what an entry-level or mid-range robot vacuum is capable of. In fact, that much suction power is what you can expect with canister vacuum cleaners. Except with the J15 Pro Ultra, you don’t have to do the work.
The vacuum features Eureka’s self-developed fan structure, which is made of aluminum to offer better thermal conductivity compared to traditional plastic fans. Improved heat dissipation helps maximize motor power. With this much power, you’ll enjoy a 99% debris removal rate, whether you’re cleaning the deepest crevices or deep vacuuming carpets.
ScrubExtend Mop Extension makes it easy to reach every nook and cranny
ScrubExtend is Eureka’s high-performance swing-arm mopping system, providing excellent coverage. The J15 Pro Ultra mop extends outwards for zero-gap edge cleaning to ensure a thorough job on skirting boards, wall corners, furniture legs, and everything else. The mop achieved 98.95% edge coverage with a precision margin of 1.36mm for a highly efficient corner cleaning experience.
It’s not just about reach, either. While other robot vacuums have swing-arm mops, they don’t apply any downward pressure when the mop is extended. So, while it might reach the corner, it won’t clean it properly. On the other hand, the J15 Pro Ultra’s rotating mop maintains a downward pressure of 7 N, even when fully extended, ensuring a consistent and thorough clean along edges and corners.
If you are worried about durability with this moving part, don’t be. The J15 Pro Ultra ScrubExtend tech has undergone rigorous testing with 100,000 extension tests. Even if you run a cleaning cycle every day, which most people don’t do, the J15 Ultra Pro will comfortably last for at least three years!
IntelliView™ AI isn’t just for navigation
While other robot vacuums leverage AI for creating accurate maps and intelligent navigation, the Eureka J15 Pro Ultra’s IntelliView™ AI is capable of so much more.
To start, it features an intelligent debris classification system that precisely distinguishes between wet messes and dry debris. The robot vacuum will then automatically adjust its cleaning mode on the fly to provide the best cleaning experience. Without this tech, you might have encountered wet clumps in the dust box, making it and the roller brush difficult to clean.
Meanwhile, the J15 Pro Ultra accurately identifies the type of mess and rotates its body to prioritize cleaning with the mop. The built-in FlexiRise™ technology also automatically lifts the roller brush and stops any wet debris from entering the dustbin.
The spinning side brushes on a robot vacuum do a good job of “feeding” the vacuum, but they can also have the opposite effect and scatter debris. This is particularly noticeable if the side brushes are rotating too fast, and most only come with a fixed speed. The J15 Pro Ultra leverages its AI smarts to automatically reduce the speed of the side brush to minimize scattering. On the flip side, if it doesn’t detect any large, dry debris, the brushes operate at higher speeds to ensure complete dust removal.
Finally, IntelliView™ Al can also accurately classify stubborn stains. When it comes across heavy stains like spilled wine or tomato sauce, the robot will automatically return to the base station to wash the mop with hot water after the first pass before returning for another round. This repeated cycle of mopping and washing not only ensures that the mop doesn’t stain other areas of the floor but also effectively removes stubborn stains with ease.
