iRobot Vacuum and Mop Combo Review

irobot robot vacuum cleaner's new Combo j7+ is the first mop and vacuum robot. It's akin to the Roomba, and has similar rug-eating intelligence. However the mop can be used with a wider selection of cleaning products and can self-fill.

If you ask it to mop using the iRobot Home voice assistant or app, a tiny robot arm will emerge of the base. The robot only releases mop arms when it senses a hard surface. They are not able to drag over carpets and rugs.

Here are a few examples of

A robot vacuum and mop combination is a useful device to keep floors tidy without the need for the Swiffer or broom. It wipes away sticky messes and helps keep grime at bay, so you don't have to worry about the mess that builds in areas with high traffic levels like kitchens or mudrooms. It also does a much better job of cleaning hard floors than vacuums alone, and it can do this automatically.

The majority of irobot vacuum/mop combinations can be used on carpet and hard floors, so they are a great choice if your home has various flooring types. The best models include features that let you control how often the robot cleans and how powerful it is. Certain models also come with automatic emptying, and can be controlled with voice control.

IRobot's most adored mop and robot vacuum combo is the j7 Combo+, which transforms into a full-featured robot cleaner at the touch of a button. Its features include the same advanced obstacle avoidance as the j7 plus new onboard acoustic sensors to assist in determining the floor type. The mop can only go over solid flooring such as wood or tile when in mop mode. It does not go over carpeting. I tried to trick the J7 Combo+ repeatedly into deploying over carpets but it would always go back to where it had left off.

It's slow to pick up fine particles of dust that a vacuum might be unable to, but it's great at taking off dried milk stains. It also comes with a handy mopping pad that's easy to refill.

The j7 Combo+ is a little cheaper than other robot vacuum and mop combos, but it's expensive for a basic appliance. It's limited in terms of battery capacity and battery life and must be returned to the dock to recharge between cleaning sessions. You'll also have to manually move it to a new room for each cleaning session, and its small size and lack of a scheduling feature mean it can only clean up to 200 square feet at a time.

Design

irobot has developed an app for its robots. It lets you organize and track cleaning chores and set up "clean zones" or "keep out zones." The robots can be controlled via the app or voice activation using the smart speaker of your choice. Many robots have different modes of operation, and some can detect obstacles for navigation.

Unlike some vacuum and mop combinations which aren't able to perform both tasks effectively, the Combo j9+ does an impressive job of both, removing embedded crumbs, fur, and dirt. It also utilizes SmartScrub to scrub the floor with constant pressure for a deeper scrubs of tough dirt such as grime and coffee. Dirt Detective, which learns from previous cleaning tasks, prioritizes the areas with the most dirt so that they get a thorough cleaning.

In addition to the features available on the regular robotic vacuums of iRobot including an extension telescopic and dual rubber brushes The Combo J7+ comes with an intelligent mopping system that raises the pad when it encounters carpet or area rugs. This stops the rugs from getting wet, and makes cleaning simpler. It's also the first combo robot that can be used to mop and vacuum all types of floors making it an ideal alternative for people with a mix of hard and soft floors.

The Combo j7+ looks similar to the standard Roomba J7 robot vacuum, with a sleek black plastic body and a brushed aluminum circular top piece bearing the iRobot logo. The reservoir for water is located in the rear, and the mop pad is at the bottom. The app shows you when the tank requires to be filled or emptied.

The Combo j9+ can be connected to your home's Wi-Fi network. It features onboard sensors to help navigate and avoid obstacles. It also collects usage data, such as how often the Combo j9+ travels around your home, as well the location and image data. However it does not sell or share this information with third-party companies without consent. On its website the company's Privacy Principles can be found.

Cleaning Performance

A robot vacuum and mop combination can save you time by keeping your floors spotless all the time. It's still important to use a mop in order to remove tough stains and extra-dirty areas but it's less frequent than using a vacuum with a bucket of water and a brush. It's an excellent solution for areas that are prone to traffic or have a lot of mess like kitchens, bathrooms, and the mudrooms.

You should consider a mopping machine If you're looking to get an even more sophisticated cleaning. These are made of a microfiber a reservoir that is only clean water and a scrubby motion to get rid of dirt. They are more effective than vacuums. Some of these, such as our upgrade choice, Braava Jet M6, even sprays detergent onto the pad to give it a more thorough clean.

The biggest drawback of a machine that only mops is that it cannot perform any work on carpets or area rugs. If a robot is in contact with these surfaces in mop or vacuum modes it will lower its pad in order to keep the surface wet. Unfortunately, this also means that it won't be able to navigate around them unless you create specific 'clean zones' and zones to keep out of the app.

Combination robots are better at this, especially our top pick for the Braava j7 from iRobot+ Combo. It operates similarly to a regular j7 vacuum, but it also comes with a wet mop that it deploys when it detects hard flooring. It's more aggressive than other robots in crossing rugs and thresholds. However, it backs off when it encounters these obstacles instead of trying mop them.

If you're really looking to be hands-free with your cleaning, you'll need a vacuum cleaner that can learn the layout of your floor and move between rooms without assistance (our upgrade option, the iRobot Braava Jet M6) or a model that uses lidar navigation (like the Roborock S5 Max). You may need to set up a 'clean zone and a 'keep out zone in the app so that it can determine where the furniture is.

Cost

A combined robot vacuum and mop will do a great job of cleaning your floors. However, it's more expensive than a standalone vacuum cleaner or mop robot. The cost will vary based on whether you want a high-end model with mapping technology that allows it to understand the layout of your home and then clean the space without running out of battery power. This feature is essential if you have carpets and rugs in your home. The newer Ecovacs Roborock S8 Pro Ultra or Deebots X2 Omni are the top models that offer this capability.

You should also think about the dimensions of your floor as well as the number of rooms that need to be cleaned and vacuumed. Smaller rooms require a smaller robot. You may be able to use a robot that vacuums or mops, but not both. For example the irobot vacuum and mop combo Combo j7+ is an upgrade option which bundles a mop robot along with its most rated Roomba vacuum, and it costs a fraction of the price of a standalone mop robot like the Braava Jet M6.

The Combo j7 Plus includes irobot floor cleaner’s Clean Station which automatically empties the dirty mop-water from the cleaning tank once it is full. The base is not included in the standard version of the j7 and must be bought separately. This is partly why the combo robot is priced at $1,099 since it's not included with the standard model.

The J7+ is a sleek modern-looking, contemporary-looking vacuum-mop. It's style is similar to Roomba's i7 vacuum. It does, however, lack some key features that other mop-only bots are equipped with. For instance, it doesn't have the same powerful 8,300Pa suction that iRobot's vacuums provide. It does not have the automatic mop pad washing feature, which is becoming more commonplace in premium mop robots. You can purchase an add-on to wash the mop pad after it is not in use. This will prevent the pads from drying out and causing a mess. In addition, the j7+ is an excellent value and is among the best robots to clean your floors.
