iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

This robot vacuum is not too scared to climb the stairs, unlike some others. But, just like all vacuums and mops, it can get clogged by stray tennis shoes ribbons, beads and yarn, play jewelry or other stray objects.

The iRobot Home App allows you to label rooms, and also create zones of no-go areas. It also lets you monitor the progress of your mops as well as battery status.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo J7+ is a part of iRobot's mop and robotic vacuum line-up that combines the robot cleaner's smart mapping capabilities along with its ability to tackle spills. It uses the same acoustic sensor that is onboard and iAdapt 2.0 Navigation as other Roomba models and maps your home seven times faster than previous versions. It also lets you set Keep Out Zones (for rooms that the robot should avoid) and Clean Zones (for rooms it is required to keep clean).

The most significant feature of the j7 is its robotic arm which keeps the mop pad hidden away when it's not in use, and then lowers it to clean carpets or hard flooring. In my testing it, the Combo J7+ did a good job at avoiding spraying water onto the rug. The robot was not able to cross the rug, even though I moved it around many times.

The arm comes with an 240mL tank that can be easily pulled out and filled, making it more manageable than mop pads found in other 2-in-1 robots. It also uses iRobot's PrevisionVision technology to avoid obstacles, which is more sophisticated than other models of this kind.

Simply replace the Mopping Bin with a compatible cleaning product and you're set to mop.

iRobot has integrated the ability to recognise household clutter, including cords, shoes, toys and bags. It will then automatically stop and return to the docking station, giving it to recharge and finish the cleaning task at a later date. It is also compatible with voice commands such as Amazon Alexa, Apple Siri and Google Assistant, understanding around 600 voice commands - far more than any other 2-in-1 robot.

It cleans most debris and is a great choice for bare flooring, but had problems with pet hair when used on carpets with low pile. It does a fantastic job with high pile carpets though and is quieter than its rivals. The i3 costs a little more than the Roborock S4 Max, but it has a self-emptying system that cleans the mop pads and replenishes the reservoir of water.

You can design cleaning schedules using the i3 App. You can also control your robot with your voice assistant to start or stop cleaning.
