Pros & Cons
Pros
Nearly flawless cleaning. Cleaning is faster as the robot moves through paths and doesn't just wander randomly. It cleans where, when or what you want. A happy camper!
J7 and j7+ both have the same rubberized brushrolls that engage with the hard surface of your floor. It seams to do an exceptional job of getting under the first few inches of couches and stuff by turning over and over again. The camera positioning ch... Read More
This is our first irobot after 3 generations of neato's (most recently the d7 connected) increase suction power. This one is definitely stronger suction-wise than my old roomba and it does a better job on edges. It vacuums effectively and fairly effic... Read More
The phone app is amazing. It's easy to set up a schedule with either the roomba app or alexa. The only downside is that the bin is small, which is pretty much unavoidable.
Once the roomba learns your floor plan you can name and segregate rooms and areas. The robot continues to improve.
Cons
Video shows crumbs being thrown aside by the spinner. When it is picked up to empty the bin which legit does have stuff in it this time, loads of stuff falls out and gets the floor all dirty once again.
For such a pricey product, this vacuum is just ok. It is quite unacceptable that sth of this kind occurs in an expensive product. This step isn't necessary with the roborock robo vacs, as they just map as they vacuum anyway.
Highlights
Quality
The shark had 2 brushes in the front instead of 1 with the irobot so it did a better job with the edges
The irobot hooks to the wifi and the app is much more friendly than with the shark app
Packaging/appearance
It has not gotten hung up once is always able to find the way back to the dockcharger
I named mine florida johnston as in the maid from the jeffersons
If you are like me and have animals you may want to invest in the thingy that cleans the dust bin
Competitiveness
I used to run a robovac at night but this one requires light to work so i run it midday which is fine
It’s a bit loud but so much better than the other roomba’s i had
In the past few months ive bought a roborock s7 a robovac l70 and a robova l20
If theres such a map on irobots app please let me know where to find it
