I cheaped out on my first robot vacuum and bought one without smart mapping. I had no idea how important that feature is. Don't skip that feature! The knock off one I ordered before (Laresar) was like $350 and died in under 6 months. It constantly bonked hard into everything, was total chaos/random on where it would go, never connected to my Alexa, customer support was completely MIA, no warranty, just bad. For my birthday this year my husband bought me the Roomba J7. I am kind of confused why it says J9 on the side, but whatever. My only other strange thing is when you try to setup the mop on the Roomba app, despite scanning the barcode it came with, it seems to send directions for an entirely different unit. Telling you to put down a drip tray and plug in a separate device. Because of this, I thought my roomba was missing pieces, so I contacted Amazon and they sent me another roomba, that one didn't have a drip tray/other plug in device either, so I came to the conclusion that there's something wrong with the mop setup directions on the app. Besides for that though, it's done a pretty dang good job of keeping the (hardwood) floor quite clear of debris. It's fascinating to watch it slow down when approaching objects so it doesn't hit them as hard, or how it reroutes itself around things in its way. Quite intelligent. It is a bit loud when it's going, but that doesn't bother me all that much. I have a medium pile area rug in the living room and it doesn't do a very good job of sucking up the cat hair that's embedded in the fibers of the carpet...it just pushes the cat hair into rolls. I wouldn't waste my money on this if you mostly have carpeted floors - it works much better on hardwood/laminate/vinyl floors. I appreciate the ease of connection with Alexa to this robot, I like the self emptying container, I like that it reroutes itself very easily when it gets stuck somewhere. I haven't used the mop on it just yet, but even still, I would recommend this product to others. Read more

It's a huge improvement over my over-10-year-old Roomba! So much smarter! I love how it mapped my floor plan and that it now knows where it has been and where it needs to go to finish. The mopping is so-so but that's not why I got it. I have 2 cats and need it for the mid-week vacuuming. It was a great buy at 44% off! Read more

What a complete waste of money! This vacuum has never been able to complete a single cleaning accurately, even though it seems to think it has. Large areas are completely ignored, even though it's a fairly small 2-bedroom apartment. Purchased the iRobot in November/23 but didn't set up and use until May/24. I previously had a $299 Ninja Shark that cleaned 100 times better than this useless piece of junk, even though it had no mapping capabilities. The main reason I made a change was that I awoke in the middle of the night a number of times to the sounds of something, or someone, bumbling around in the living room. It turned out that the Shark had embarked on unscheduled vacuuming forays between 2:30 and 4:00 am, scaring me half to death. As I live alone, this was quite startling, so I decided to spring for a new robot vacuum with mapping capabilities. The iRobot is now giving out signals that the battery doesn't work (button lights up in red) when it's only been used for two months and is not used daily. Mostly once or twice weekly, some weeks not at all. I purchased all the mopping supplies as well, more $ wasted as I am afriaid to even try the mopping feature. I'm sorry that I didn't just choose a new Shark with mapping ability. Tried to get to the support web site, only to find that "the server can't be found". Excuse me??? I utterly regret this purchase, as it was fairly expensive and the vacuum is quite useless. The app is not at all intuitive Amazon has had a LOT of my money over the years! NO, I absolutely DO NOT recommend this product. Update: now going backwards and in circles. Can't even get itself out of the room where it docks. WORST PURCHASE I HAVE EVER MADE!!! Read more

This product was way better than expected! It improves each time you use it. Always mapping out to make sure it gets every area possible. Very impressed! I love how it goes under furniture and under all my beds. Now that I have one I won't be able to go without it. It runs every day and saves me so much time. Works well on carpets and I have 4 cats and 1 dog. Loved it so much I bought 1 for upstairs and another for downstairs. Detects stairs, toys and anything that's in the way. Total lifesaver on cleaning time! Buy one you won't regret it! Read more

Funciona excelente y sí reconoce desniveles o escalones. El único detalle que sí se atora con los cables de algún aparato eléctrico. Por lo demás limpia muy bien. Read more
