iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

This vacuum isn't too scared to climb the stairs, unlike others. However, just like any mop and vacuum, it can get clogged by the stray tennis shoes, ribbons and play jewelry, yarn, or other objects that are loose.

You can use the iRobot Home app to label rooms and set up zones that are not allowed to enter. You can also monitor the progress of your mops and their battery levels.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo J7+ is a robot vacuum and mop that combines smart mapping capabilities of iRobot and its ability to handle spills. It is equipped with the same onboard acoustic sensor and iAdapt 2.0 Navigation as other Roomba models and maps your home seven times more quickly than previous versions. It also allows you to create Keep Out Zones (for rooms which the robot should not enter) and Clean Zones (for rooms it must keep clean).

The most notable feature of the j7 is its robotic arm which keeps the mop pad tucked away when it's not in use, and then lowers it to tackle carpeting or hard flooring. The idea is to not spray water on the rug and the Combo J7+ did well at this during my tests. The robot did not try to pass over the rug, even after I moved it around a few times.

The arm comes with a 240mL tank which can be easily removed and filled, so it's easier to manage than mop pads on other 2-in-1 robots. It also uses the iRobot's PrevisionVision technology to avoid obstacles, which is more sophisticated than other systems of this type.

When it's time to mop, simply swap in the Mopping Bin and a compatible cleaning solution.

It will then stop and return to the docking station, allowing it to recharge and complete the cleaning task at a later date. It is compatible with voice commands like Amazon Alexa and Apple Siri, and understands about 600 voice commands. This is more than any other 2-in-1 robot.

It is a great choice with high pile carpets though and is quieter than its competitors. The i3 is a little more expensive than the Roborock S4 Max but it has a self-emptying station that emptys the dirtbag, refills its water reservoir and cleans the mop pads.
