certain rubber and vinyl compounds react so I guess there is some vinyl in the carpet fibers or backing the wheels are reacting with. (source: https://forums.wyzecam. |

The main downside is the wyze vac is easily twice to 3 times as loud. You can still hang out in the room while the eufy vacs run with only minor annoyance, the wyze is like if someone was running a full size vac right next to you. I also had the foam gasket around the bin peel off almost immediately, but that's the only issue I've had with the vac. I've also heard there's issues with it leaving marks on the floor near the dock, but mine is on tile and they wiped right off.
According this site [cleanup.expert], the Eufy 11S makes about ~55dB of noise during operation. However, I just measured my own Eufy 11S while sitting in the same room about 10 feet away (49dB ambient noise without it running), and noise went up to 59dB on "standard" mode and 63dB on "max" mode (ignore spikes when it bumped into things, which should be less of an issue on a LIDAR robot).
According to this site [wyze.com] says the Wyze Robot Vacuum makes between 58dB and 64dB depending on setting which is pretty much the range I measured my Eufy 11S at. Because an increase of 10dB is perceived as roughly twice as loud, even an increase of ~5dB on average would only be about 30-40% louder.
So it seems safe to say Xiaomi & Roborock are not producing this vacuum for Wyze. Most likely another Chinese factory knocked off the design and made minor changes for Wyze, which is common practice in China.
