iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

In contrast to some robot vacuums this one isn't afraid to take on the stairs. Like any mop or vacuum it is prone to clogging by objects like tennis shoes, play thread, jewelry or other loose objects.

The iRobot Home App allows you to label rooms, and also create zones of no-go areas. You can also monitor the progress of your mops and their battery status.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo j7+ joins iRobot's mop and robotic vacuum line-up, combining the robotic cleaner's smart mapping capabilities with its ability to tackle spills. It has 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 can also be set to keep Out Zones and Clean Zones to inform the robot which rooms it should stay clear of and when it should clean them.

The j7's most important feature is its robotic arm, which keeps the mop pad tucked away when not in use and allows it to tackle carpeting or hard flooring. The idea is to avoid spraying water on the rug and the Combo J7+ did well at this during my tests. The robot stopped when it came across the rug, and didn't attempt to get over it even although I moved the rug around a few times.

The arm is equipped with a 240mL tank, which is easy to remove and refilled. This makes it much easier to use as opposed to the mop pads that are found on many other 2-in-1 robotic arm. It utilizes iRobot PrevisionVision technology to avoid obstacles, which is more advanced than other systems of this kind.

When it's time to mop, simply switch between the Mopping Bin and a compatible cleaning solution.

iRobot is able to recognize household clutter, such as bags, shoes cords, toys and other items. It will then automatically stop and return to the docking station, giving it to recharge and finish the cleaning task later. It is compatible with voice commands like Amazon Alexa and Apple Siri, and understands around 600 voice commands. This is more than any other 2-in-1 industrial robot vacuum.
