Black Friday Robot Vacuum Deals

Boston--Whether you're buying one for yourself or someone you want to gift it to there are a lot of early Black Friday robot vacuum deals to avail. From smart self-emptying options to those that can mop, many brands are offering discounts.

Some highlights include the iRobot Roomba Combo j5+ with a self-emptying dock available at Walmart and an Amazon best-seller that can detect pet poop, stay clear of steps and ledges, and even make cleaning appointments using your smartphone.

1. iRobot Roomba Combo j5+

The Roomba Combo J5+ is the latest 2-in-1 model from iRobot's high-end line and comes with both mopping and vacuuming capabilities. It's powered by iRobot OS, which helps it become smarter over time and creates the Smart Map of your floors. It allows you to identify your rooms, set up cleaning schedules and define no-mop areas for your carpets. It is able to detect obstacles and objects with iRobot’s new obstacle avoidance tech. It can also detect carpets of any kind from low-pile to thick and alter the cleaning mode in line with the carpet.

Like the iRobot Combo j7+ features Power-Lifting Suction. It is designed for both vacuuming as well as mopping. It has an additional bin for dirt and a second combo mop/vacuuming bin that you fill with water or liquid cleaner. The robot will automatically switch between mopping and vacuuming modes depending on the contents of the bin.

The Roomba Combo j5+ uses iRobot’s Enhanced mVac Mode to provide powerful dust suction, which leaves your floors sparkling clean. This mode also uses the Clean Base automatic vacuum robot Dirt Disposal to empty the robot's dirty bin, providing you with an unrestricted experience. The Combo j5+ also has a dedicated power button that allows you to instantly switch between mopping and vacuuming.

It's simple to set up and use your robot with the iRobot Home app. You can design a custom home cleaning plan by just a few clicks. You can also view your robot's status and monitor it remotely.

You can make use of your smartphone as an remote control to begin cleaning or a chore, or you can let your voice command it. The iRobot Combo j5+ is compatible with Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant. This allows you to easily connect your smart home devices. It is equipped with the pet-safe P.O.O.P technology (Pet owner's official guarantee) which helps avoid pet messes. This is an excellent choice for pet owners but wants the convenience of a mop and vacuum combinator.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION robot vacuum cleaner is a basic model, but it comes with many features. It offers a long-lasting run time and is able to clean carpeted floors as well as bare rooms. It also comes with a useful app that works well with Alexa. However, it does not have the ability to map and other advanced controls of expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum has a powerful motor with multi-surface brush rolls that penetrate into cracks and corners to ensure that your home is spotless. It also includes bumper sensors to keep out collisions, as well as an lower cliff sensor that will stop the robot from falling down stairs. It can be programmed to clean rooms or sets of rooms at regular intervals.

The Shark ION is extremely effective in cleaning floors with no dirt. However, it is unable to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It can also get caught in furniture. However it does a good job of avoiding obstacles, and it can run for a long time of up to 90 minutes.

The user interface of this robot is simple to use and is one of its best features. You can either use the round button on the top of the unit to initiate a cleaning, or launch the Shark ION App on your smartphone and issue it a command. The app will inform you how much battery is left and the status of the vacuum. It will also tell you whether the cleaning session has been completed or not.

Many of the customers also appreciated the fact that this robotic is compatible with Alexa. You can turn this vacuum off and on with an easy voice command, and you can also use the app to schedule cleaning times. The only negative that we could find with this vacuum is that it takes longer to charge than some of the other models we've examined, and that the two hand vac attachments don't fit into the base and can be lost quite easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

In addition to being a top rated robot vacuum This Samsung model can also be used as a camera for home monitoring. It comes with a lens you can access via your phone and is designed to keep an eye on the surrounding area of your home. You can set up a schedule to have it monitor your home even when you are gone. This is great if you have pets shed or you need to watch for any intrusions.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a premium model that comes with a range of features including object recognition, home monitoring, a self-emptying dust bin and five layers of filtration. It's a great choice for those who want an expensive model that excels at cleaning hard floors, but aren't afraid of a little dust on carpets.

One of the greatest features of this robot is its sophisticated obstacle avoidance. It uses sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and find objects. Then, it either navigates around them or labels them as a no-go zone in the map. This feature isn't found on other robots, which makes the Samsung an extremely safe choice for your home.

On the other hand this model isn't able to do very well at spot cleaning. We asked the robot to clean a carpet that had rice grains scattered across it. The robot did a poor job of moving the rice grains around, and did not remove any of them. This is a disappointing outcome in light of the fact that other models did better in the tests.

It's also worth noting, that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ can be a bit pricey compared to its competitors. Other robotic vacuums offer similar quality for less. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for instance is a top-rated robot vacuum that offers the same features at half the price.

The SmartThings application is used to control this cheap robot vacuum cleaner, like other Samsung smart products. The process of setting up is simple with the app prompts that guide you through the process. The app lets you look at the map, make cleaning schedules, alter suction, choose no-go zones and manage other settings. It also displays the current status of the robot and when the dustbin must be emptied.

4. Manvins Robot Vacuum & Mop Combo

If you're not yet ready to commit to a dedicated robot vacuum and separate mop, this all-in-one model might be exactly what you need. It's available now for nearly half the cost and has four different cleaning modes. The dust bin for the vacuum is easy to empty, and the mopping tank holds up to 200 milliliters (or 7 ounces).

In the past, we've tested this robot in our Cleaning Lab and found it to be very efficient on both low-pile and hard floors. Its unique Matrix Clean Navigation uses a grid pattern to ensure every space in your home is cleaned, and it has the ability to recognize stairs. It also has an remote control that makes it easy to adjust the settings.

Another advantage is that it works by using voice commands, so you can start and stop the cleaning cycle through an app on your tablet or phone. The app lets you set the schedule for cleaning and choose the cleaning mode. The battery runs for 100 minutes and the robot automatically returns to its base for charging after each cleaning session, or if the power is low.

This robot vacuum is a top option for busy families, and it's currently available at a price that is more than 50% off its original price. It has a 4-out-of-5 customer rating and uses an intelligent cleaning system that utilizes three steps of cleaning to ensure your home is clean. It can detect pet hair and dander, so it is an excellent choice for families with pets.

Modern robotic vacuums and mops can be used with smartphone applications. These apps allow you to save maps of your home and create custom cleaning programs, and control the machine. Certain models also come with smart mopping pads that dry in between uses, which helps prevent mildew and bacteria from forming on your floor.

The compact design of the vacuum-mop combination makes it easy to fit into corners and under furniture. Its complete suite of sensors also gracefully avoid obstacles and stairs. The mopping pad comes with triple HEPA filtering technology and an application that integrates it. This prevents fine dust particles from entering the air in your home.
