iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

The robot vacuum isn't afraid to tackle the stairs, unlike some other models. However, just like any other mop or vacuum it could get blocked by debris, such as loose tennis shoes ribbons, beads and play jewelry, yarn, or other loose objects.

You can use the iRobot Home app to label rooms and create zones that are not allowed to enter. It also lets you monitor your mops's progress and the status of its battery.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo J7+ is a part of the iRobot robot vacuum and mop lineup, combining the robotic cleaner's smart mapping capabilities with the ability to deal with spills. It has the same acoustic sensor onboard and iAdapt 2.0 Navigation as the other Roomba models and maps your home seven times more quickly than previous versions. It also lets you set Keep Out Zones and Clean Zones to inform the robot which areas it should avoid and when to clean them.

The robotic arm is the most powerful robot vacuum 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+ does well at this in my testing. The robot backed away when it came across an area rug and did not attempt to go over it, even although I moved the rug around several times.

The arm comes with a 240mL tank that is easily removed and filled. This makes it easier to use as opposed to the mop pads that are found on other 2-in-1 robotic arms. It also makes use of the iRobot's PrevisionVision obstacle avoidance technology, which is more sophisticated than other models of this kind.

iRobot Combo i5

This multi-tasker is designed to mop and vacuum with one machine.

The i5+ also comes with dual multi-surface rubber brushes as well as Power-Lifting Suction to tackle dust, dirt pet hair, and dirt on hard floors. Simply swap the Mopping Bin with a compatible cleaning product and you're ready to mop.

The i5+ runs iRobot OS and gets smarter the more you use it. It creates a Smart Map, which remembers the names of rooms as well as your preferences for cleaning. The iRobot App allows you to create a schedule or instruct the robot to clean a particular room.

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

The i3 Plus still has a variety of other fantastic features too like its advanced cleaning system with 10x power-lifting suction and three-stage cleaning process. It also features a textured exterior to protect against fingerprints, dust and hair of pets.

It removes most dirt and iRobot Vacuum and Mop performs well on carpets that are not bare, but it did have trouble with pet hair on carpets with low pile. It does an excellent job on carpets with a lot of pile and is quieter than the other models. The i3 is a little more expensive than the Roborock S4 Max but it comes with a self-emptying station that empties the dirtbag, fills its water reservoir and cleans its mop pads.

With the i3 app you can make schedules for cleaning at a time that suits your needs. You can also control your robot via your voice assistant to begin or stop cleaning.
