iRobot Vacuum and Mop Review

Unlike some robot vacuums, this one isn't afraid to go on the stairs. However, just like any other mop vacuum robot or vacuum, it can get clogged by loose tennis shoes or ribbons and play jewelry, yarn, or other objects that are loose.

The iRobot Home App allows you to label rooms and even create zones that are not allowed to enter. You can also track the performance of your mops as well as their battery status.

iRobot Combo j7+

The Combo J7+ is a part of the iRobot mop and robotic vacuum line-up and combines the robotic cleaner's smart mapping capabilities along with the ability to deal with spills.

It can also be set to keep Out Zones and Clean Zones to inform the robot which areas it should stay clear of and when to clean them.

The most notable feature of the j7 is its robotic arm which keeps the mop pad locked away when not in use and allows it to clean carpets or hard flooring. In my tests, the Combo J7+ did a great job at avoiding water spraying on the rug. The robot was not able to walk across the rug, even though I moved it around many times.

The arm comes with a 240mL tank, which is easy to remove and filled. This makes it much easier to use than the mop pads found on many other 2-in-1 robotic arms. It utilizes iRobot PrevisionVision obstacle-avoidance technology that is more advanced than other systems of this kind.
