Irobot Vacuum and mop (www.pirooztak.ir) Combo Review

iRobot's new Combo j7+ is the first combinator vacuum and mop robot. It looks like an Roomba and offers similar rug-avoiding capabilities, but the mop's self-filling feature makes it compatible with other cleaning solutions.

A little robot arm emerges from the base when you tell it to mop with the robotic irobot roomba Home app or voice assistant. The mops only activate when the robot is aware that it's on a hard floor, and they avoid drag across carpets and rugs.

Features

A robot vacuum and mop combination is a great tool for keeping floors clean without relying on the use of a broom or a Swiffer. It wipes away sticky messes and keeps dirt at bay, meaning you don't have to fret about the mess that can build up in high-traffic areas like kitchens or mudrooms. It can also do better job of cleaning hard floors with a vacuum than a vacuum on its own.

The majority of irobot vacuum/mop combinations can be used on carpets and hard floors, which is why they're an excellent choice when you have multiple flooring types. The best models include features that let you decide how often the robot cleans and how powerful it is. Some models also include automatic emptying and can be controlled by voice.

The J7 Combo+ is one of newest irobot's most popular robot vacuum and mop. It can be transformed into a fully-featured robot cleaner by pressing a single button. Its advanced features include the same advanced obstacle avoidance as the j7 plus new onboard acoustic sensors to assist in determining the floor type. When it is in mop mode, the mop will only be activated when it senses hard flooring such as wood or tile; it never goes over area rugs or carpeting. I've tried a few times to trick the j7 Combo+ into deploying over carpet however it always backed up before returning to where it had left off.

It's slow to pick dust particles that a vacuum may miss, but it is excellent at getting rid of dried milk stains. It also has a convenient mopping pad that's easy to refill.

The J7 Combo+ is a little less expensive than some other robot mop and vacuum combos, but it's still quite expensive for a basic device. It's got a limited battery life and a water tank, so it needs to return to its dock and recharge between the majority of cleaning sessions. It is also necessary to manually move the machine to a different room after each cleaning session. Its small size and absence of a scheduling feature means it can only clean 200 square feet.

Design

The app allows you to plan and track cleaning tasks as well as to create "clean zones" and "keep out zones". You can also control robots using the app or by voice control using the smart speaker of choice. They have a variety of power modes and can detect obstacles to assist in navigation.

Contrary to some vacuum and mop combinations which aren't able to perform both tasks effectively, the Combo J9+ does an impressive job of both, removing dirt, fur, and dirt. It also makes use of SmartScrub to scrub the floor in a circular motion with consistent pressure for deeper cleaning of stubborn dirt such as grime and coffee. Dirt Detective, which has learned from previous cleaning missions it prioritizes rooms that have more dirt so that they get a thorough cleaning.

The Combo J7+ is equipped with a mopping system that lifts the pad when it hits carpet or area rugs. This makes it less likely to get the rugs wet and allows for faster cleanup. It is the first robot combination that can be used for both vacuuming and mopping all kinds of flooring, making it an excellent option for those who have an assortment of hard and soft floors.

The Combo J7+ is similar to the standard Roomba j7 robot vacuum with the sleek black plastic body and brushed aluminum top piece with a circular design bearing the irobot black friday logo. The reservoir for water is located in the rear and the mop pad is attached to the bottom. The app will notify you when the tank needs to be filled or emptied.

The Combo J9+ is compatible with your WiFi network in your home. It also has sensors onboard for navigation and obstacles avoidance. It collects usage data, such as the frequency it moves around the home as well as mapping and image data, but it does not use this information to sell or share it with third-party companies without your consent. The company's Privacy Principles are available on its website.

Cleaning Performance

A robot vacuum and mop combination can help you save time by keeping your floors clean all the time. It is still essential to use a mop in order to take off tough stains and dirtier areas, but it will be less frequent than using a vacuum cleaner with an empty bucket of water with a brush. It's a great option for areas with a lot of traffic such as bathrooms, kitchens and bathrooms and mudrooms.

If you're looking for more advanced cleaning performance look into a dedicated mopping robot. These are made of a microfiber a reservoir that is only clean water, and a scrubbing motion to get rid of dirt. They're more efficient than a vacuum. Some of them, such as our pick for the best upgrade, the Braava Jet m6, also squirt detergent into the pad for a deeper clean.

The biggest drawback of a machine that only mops is that it will not be able to do anything about carpets or area rug. If a robot encounters these surfaces while in vacuum and mop mode, it will lower the pad in order to keep the surfaces wet. This also means that it won't be able to navigate around them unless you set up special 'clean zones' and "keep out zones" in the app.

Combination robots are more efficient at this, especially our top choice for the Braava j7 from iRobot+ Combo. It operates similarly to a normal j7 vacuum however, it comes with a built-in wet mop which it deploys when it spots hard flooring. It is more aggressive than other robots in crossing thresholds and rugs. However, it is able to back off when it encounters these obstacles, instead of trying to mop them.

If you'd like to be hands-free for the duration of your stay, you will need a robot vacuum cleaner that is able to learn the layout of your house and move between rooms on its own (our top pick for an upgrade is the iRobot Jet m6) or a combination cleaner that has a navigation system using lidar (like the Roborock S5 Max). You may need to create a 'clean zone' and a 'keep out zone in the app so that it can determine where the furniture is.

Cost

A robot vacuum that can also function as a mop is a ideal way to scrub your floors. However it's more expensive a standalone vacuum cleaner or a separate mop robot. Costs vary based on whether you want a high end model with mapping technology that lets it learn the layout of your home and then clean every room with no battery power. This feature is essential when you have rugs or carpets in your home, and the newer Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni or Roborock S8 Pro Ultra are the best models with this feature.

Another thing to consider is the size of your floors and the amount of rooms you'll have to mop and vacuum. Smaller rooms require smaller robots. You may be able to get by with one that vacuums or mops but not both. irobot with mop Combo J7+, for example is a fantastic upgrade that bundles a dedicated mop robot with its highly rated Roomba, and is priced at only a fraction of what a standalone robot mop such as the Braava jet M6 would cost.

The Combo j7 Plus includes iRobot’s Clean Station which automatically empties the mop-water that is dirty from the tank for cleaning once it's full. The base isn't included in the standard j7 model and has to be purchased separately, which accounts for the combo's eye-watering $1,099 price tag.

The design of the j7+ is sleek and modern and is almost like the fad Roomba i7 vacuum, which is what makes it an appealing option for vacuum-mop hybrids. However, it does lack some key features that other mop-only bots come with. It doesn't offer the same powerful suction of 8,300Pa like iRobot vacuums. It does not have the automatic mop pad cleaning feature, which is becoming more commonplace in premium mop robots. However, you can purchase an add-on for the j7+ to wash the mop pad if you're not using it. This will stop the pads from drying out and causing a mess. In addition, the J7+ is a fantastic value and is among the best robots to clean your floors.
