I built a pyramid out of magna tiles to see if the Eufy E28 would be able to detect and avoid it. Unfortunately it took down my pyramid and I was pulling magnetic tiles off the bottom of the vacuum.

Ha. Nice experiment 
lol cute
After it smashed into it, it looks like it tried to turn around and flee the scene of the crime lol
Its like it was like it hung around the scene to assess the damage, but once it saw me watching it was time to keep moving and pretend it didn’t even notice
Unfortunately for the vacuum some of the magnets stuck to under chassis and it left a trail of evidence straight back to the base station.
The unit is good with obstacle avoidance but Ive noticed that sometimes it will slow down considerably while trying to assess a situation. The vacuum will proceed slowly and nudge the item. If the item moves the vacuum will continue forward pushing the item along with it until it eventually plows through the obstruction and deflects off of the front bumper. If the item doesn’t have any give then the robot vacuum will turn around.
nice try robot
Too funny
