Vacuuming

The Combo Essential has a powerful 4-Stage Cleaning System that vacuums and mop in one sweep and removes dirt from difficult-to-access places such as under the couch. It makes use of smart navigation to methodically clean in neat rows for wall-to-wall cleaning and to avoid falling down steps, while sensors assist navigate around furniture. Clean Base Auto-Fill Docks empty debris for up to 60 days, and refills the liquid to ensure that it is able to clean itself autonomously. Additionally, it's compatible with more cleaning products than any other 2-in-1.

The roomba combination is also a capable mops, but it is lacking some of the more advanced features that make Roomba J7+ a top sweeper. It switches from sweeping to mopping when it detects an area that is damp. A small robot arm lifts the combo water tank/dustbin, and when you hit the button on the side of the cleaner it slides a new pad into place and is ready to go.

It was able to maneuver well even when the route was not always clear. It's not the best buy irobot at avoiding obstacles, but it was pretty quick to identify and maneuver around larger objects like socks and toys that get in its way.

The app lets you alter your schedule, create an exact cleaning route and create Keep Out Zones or Clean Zones to direct the robot where it should go. It also shows the details of what it has accomplished and its health status. It is also possible to pair it with Alexa, Siri or Google Assistant enabled devices to provide voice control.

Object Detection

Then, they adjust their cleaning settings in response to the recognition, helping to avoid wet messes. They have an automatic sensor that tells them when to stop cleaning and resurface.

With Smart Mapping, Roomba maps your home 7x faster, identifies rooms to start targeted cleaning earlier and can be customized to keep Out Zones and Clean Zones. You can control your robot by voice commands or the app in conjunction with Alexa Siri or Google Assistant.

Of course when you use any smart home device that collects and manages information about your space, you'll need to be at ease with sharing personal information. In our tests, we've inquired of each company whose products we test about the security measures they use to protect this sensitive information. iRobot claims that it doesn't sell customer data and outlines its Privacy Principles on the website.

Navigation

The roomba irobot Combo uses Imprint Smart Mapping technology to learn and map your floorplan and then re-maps it as required. Once a room has been marked, you can set cleaning preferences for that particular area using the irobot vacuum Home App and it will then automatically clean that space during future missions. Roomba also comes with Dirt Detective, which automatically prioritizes your most dirty rooms for the most frequent cleaning or mopping. PrecisionVision Navigation lets it keep away from objects like charging cables or shoes, as well as socks. This feature will save you time when you're trying to finish the task.

Battery Life

The Combo J7+ is powered with an lithium-ion battery that has a lot of power to clean your home. Its water and dust bin tank can hold 400 and 200 ml respectively, and the robot has a high-efficiency filtration system to collect dirt particles and keep them from getting back to your flooring. It is compatible with iRobot’s app and voice assistants, so you can control it via your smartphone or other devices.

Another great feature is its ability to capture images of objects, which can help the Combo j7+ avoid those objects in future cleaning runs. However, iRobot chose not to include automatic washing of mop pads as we've seen many premium robotic cleaners include recently. This is a minor issue however it would have been good to see this feature on the Combo j7+. The Combo j7+ has an excellent warranty and is simple to use.
