iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

Unlike some robot vacuums, this one isn't afraid to go on the stairs. Like all mops and vacuums, it is susceptible to clogging by debris, such as tennis shoes, play jewelry, thread, or other loose items.

You can use the iRobot Home app to label rooms and set up no-go zones. It also lets you track the progress of your mops as well as battery status.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo j7+ joins the robot vacuum and mop lineup and combines the robotic cleaner's smart mapping capabilities along with its ability to handle spills. It uses the same acoustic sensor that is onboard and iAdapt 2.0 Navigation as the other Roomba models and maps your home seven times faster than previous versions. It also allows you to create Keep Out Zones (for rooms that the robot should avoid) and Clean Zones (for rooms that it should keep clean).

The robotic arm is the most significant feature of the J7. It keeps the mop pad hidden when it is not in use and lowers it for carpeting or hard flooring. In my testing it, the Combo J7+ did a great job at avoiding spraying water onto the rug. The robot stopped when it encountered an area rug and did not attempt to cross it, even though I moved the rug around several times.

The arm comes with a 240mL tank that can be easily pulled out and filled, making it more manageable than the mop pads of many other 2-in-1 robots. It utilizes iRobot PrevisionVision obstacle-avoidance technology that is more advanced than other systems of this type.
