iRobot Vacuum and Robot Vacuum Mops Mop Review

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

You can make use of the iRobot Home app to label rooms and create no-go zones. You can also monitor the performance of your mops as well as their battery levels.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo j7+ joins iRobot's robot vacuum and mop lineup that combines the robot 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 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 tell the robot which areas it should stay clear of and when it should clean them.

The most notable feature of the j7 is its robotic arm which keeps the mop pad hidden away when not in use and lowers it to clean carpets or hard floors. The concept is to prevent spraying water onto the rug and the Combo J7+ did very well during my tests. The Robot Vacuum Mops didn't attempt to walk across the rug, even though I moved it around several times.

The arm is equipped with a 240mL tank which is easy to remove and filled. This makes it more convenient to use than the mop pads on other 2-in-1 robotic arms. It also utilizes the iRobot's PrevisionVision obstacle avoidance technology, which is more sophisticated than other systems of this type.

iRobot Combo i5

The i5+ also features dual multi-surface rubber brush heads and Power-Lifting Suction to tackle dust, dirt pet hair, and staining on floors. When you're ready to mop, simply swap between the Mopping Bin and a compatible cleaning solution.

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

iRobot is able to recognize household clutter such as shoes, bags cords, toys, and even cords.

It is voice-compatible with Amazon Alexa and Apple Siri, and understands about 600 voice commands. This is more than any other 2-in-1 robot.

This ensures that all surfaces are spotless. It is equipped with a full set of sensors and navigation capabilities that allow it to avoid obstacles such as furniture and cords.
