Newest iRobot Roomba Robots

iRobot’s latest robots can map your home and use their cameras in order to identify small obstacles such as cords, shoes and pet debris. The Combo j9+ also fills its own water tank when you take it on a mopping run it is an upgrade over previous models that required you manually empty and refill the tanks manually.

The Roomba S9+

The S9+ is a Top Performance Robot Vacuum-of-the-line robotic vacuum that can be used as mop. Its awe-inspiring technology is integrated into a sleek new design that cleans deeply into corners and along edges and maps your home and self-empties.

The s9+ comes with powerful motors that offer 40X more suction3 than the previous irobots. It also has the capability to recognize carpeted areas which triggers it to use Power Boost for deeper cleaning. Its automatic dirt recognition is incredibly precise and can differentiate the smallest toy or dust particle from each other which prevents the toy from getting stuck.

When the s9+ has become filled with debris it returns to its dock and then emptys its contents by taking them out of its large bin. This process, which sounds like an engine that is taking off, takes only about a minute and can be scheduled through the irobot app.

This robot stands out from its competition by the new navigational feature known as Imprint Smart Mapping. This advanced technology uses sensors to scan the space digitally up to 25 times per second. It allows it to map your house more accurately and avoid bumping against obstacles. The s9+ comes with PerfectEdge Technology, which allows the device to get close to the edges of complex structures like the Ikea-renovated cabinets that I have in my home.

The S9+ connects to WiFi easily and is set up quickly, although it may take a few tries before the app can locate your home. Once it does, the home page and dashboard are simple to navigate. You can select from a wide range of functions, including a detailed schedule and mopping preferences.

The s9+ comes with the option of cleaning in two or one pass. You can also select "room-size cleaning" which balances space size and time to complete the task faster. It is also possible to adjust the level of suction to a range of levels, from Eco for less power, to Turbo to increase the power. It can also be programmed to vacuum and then mop, or to pause the mopping before beginning the vacuuming sequence. In contrast to other robot vacuums, the bin of the s9+ is removable for quick emptying and washing.

In our lab tests, the 675 achieved an overall pickup score of 89.7, which was better than the more eufy RoboVac G30 and slightly below the iLife V3s Pro (94) and the Shark Ion R85 (96). The 675 was able take care of the majority of the debris we tossed however it had a difficult time with larger debris such as sand from low pile carpet.

Like the Roomba 900 series, it comes with dual multi-surface brushes to remove dirt and dust from carpeting and hard floors and an additional brush that sweeps corners and edges. It is able to adjust automatically to different surfaces and also has cliff sensors that will stop it from falling. It also detects dirtier areas and scrub them more thoroughly.

The Roomba J9+

The j9+ is iRobot's most powerful robot vacuum and mop combination. It is designed to clean large homes as well as those with pets with care. It comes with a three-stage process of cleaning, and two rubber brushes that offer excellent debris removal. It's also built with Carpet Boost technology that lifts dirt and pet hair that has been embedded and to tackle more difficult carpeting. Its smart Dirt Detective feature uses information from previous cleaning operations to determine and prioritize areas that are filthy. It then adjusts settings such as suction power and scrub intensity to give these areas the attention they need.

The j9+ is unique because it can empty and refill by itself. It has a tank for water and a robotically-controlled dispenser that will automatically refill when the dust bin is full. This is a fantastic time-saver because you don't need to worry about changing the dirty water or emptying your trash bin.

When you purchase the j9+ it comes with a cleaning base and dock together with a set of additional filters, an extra side brush, and a virtual wall. It's important to place the base or dock in a location that is easy for the robot to reach and away from furniture, walls cabinets, and other obstructions. The iRobot website suggests a location with four feet in front and 1.5 feet on each side. It also recommends four feet between the base of the dock and any stairs.

We found the j9+ highly effective in cleaning bare floors and picking up small debris like pet hair, pet hair, and dust. However, it has a difficult time with larger particles and has a tendency to shut off its cleaning once the dustbin is full. Additionally the j9+'s Dirt Detective feature can be inconsistant, often restricting suction to save energy even when a particular area needs more attention.
