iRobot Roomba Sale – Top 5 Robot Vacuums on Sale

The iRobot j9+ is a great value pick for an automated cleaner. Its vSLAM Navigation System is able to map your home to plot efficient cleaning routes without hitting furniture.

However, iRobot is facing some issues It reported a loss in 2022, and Amazon pulled out of an agreement to buy the company after saying “disproportionate regulatory hurdles” could slow the process.

i5+

The i5+ is a self-emptying robot that automatically dumps its dirt into the homebase after vacuuming. It also has an additional wet bin which holds water and cleaning solution for mopping. This makes it less messy than the previous generation i3 Evo combination which required you to swap the wet bin out by using the vacuum dust bin. It also has a tiny footprint, which means it’s able to fit into tight spaces and corners where larger models would struggle.

It runs iRobot OS, which maps your home room by room and offers 10x more suction power. It can also determine when it is time to recharge, and has resume and recharge capabilities to keep your floors ready to use. You can choose from a variety of cleaning schedules and modes, including the new, more powerful “deep clean” function. You can also control your robot using voice commands for on-demand cleaning.

Although this irobot vacuum and mop robot does an excellent job of cleaning hard flooring, it’s not a good choice for rooms with carpets because it lacks the smarter Combo J7+’s ability to prevent mopping areas by creating a set of no-mop zones. It’s also a little tricky to set up since the software requires that the base of the home be in a space that isn’t covered by carpet. There is also very little documentation printed in the printed materials on how to handle wifi connectivity issues which can be frustrating.

i7+

The i7+ is the leading robot vacuum that is a leader in innovation. With self-emptying technology for weeks of hands-off cleaning, and granular mapping that’ll let it focus on areas around furniture It has the potential to transform how you live your home. But it’s expensive, noisy and requires a lot of maintenance.

It takes some time to get started since the robot is housed in a massive, heavy box that includes its charging station and a filter spare and a brush to clean the front edge. When the Lithium-Ion battery has been fully charged, it will return to its base to recharge and empty its dirt bin. The station can also be used as a remote that lets you to select rooms to clean and create virtual barriers.

It takes some time to learn the layout of your home however once it has it’s astonishingly efficient. Using Imprint Smart Mapping, it retains the layout of rooms so that you can tell it to clean certain rooms with one click in the app. It was tested by telling it to clean both the living and kitchen. It did so without any hassle.

It was able to pick up dust bunnies and breadcrumbs without spreading them out, unlike our previous top choice, the Eufy RoboVac 11s. The only drawback we have found is that its sweeping brush can get tangled with long hair, so you’ll need to untangle it frequently. However, we believe the i7+ is a good choice for anyone looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that doesn’t require the need for manual intervention in homes that are busy.
