iRobot Vacuum and ecovacs robot vacuum Mop Review

This robot vacuum is not afraid to tackle the stairs, unlike some other models. Like all mops and vacuums it is susceptible to getting blocked by particles, like tennis shoes, thread, jewelry or other loose objects.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo j7+ is a robot vacuum and mop that combines smart mapping capabilities of iRobot and its ability to deal with spills.

The robotic arm is the most significant feature of the j7. It keeps the mop pad hidden when not in use, and lowers it for carpeting or hard flooring. The idea is to avoid spraying water onto the rug and the Combo J7+ did a good job of it during my tests. The robot didn't attempt to cross the rug, even though I moved it around many times.

The arm comes with a 240mL tank which can be easily removed and filled. This makes it more convenient to use than the mop pads found on many other 2-in-1 robotic arm. It uses iRobot PrevisionVision technology to avoid obstacles, which is more advanced than other systems of this type.
