Customers have mixed opinions about the mapping accuracy of the robotic vacuum cleaner. Some find it useful and appreciate that it maps your house and vacuums in a grid pattern instead of randomly. Others mention that the mapping function is a little dicey at first, and it sometimes disregards the map entirely and creates a new one. It invariably misses areas and forgets where it is.

Customers have mixed opinions about the robotic vacuum cleaner's pet hair pickup. Some find it effective at picking up pet hair better than their previous vacuum Smart Map, and it takes care of furry tumbleweeds. Others mention that it doesn't pick up cat litter very well, is less effective at picking up cat hair, and long human hair.
"...Cleaner home? With hair shedding pets, I can see how one's home may remain cleaner if you regularly run the robot...." Read more
"...fast and below average suction power means that this bot misses debris on hard floors often...." Read more
"...The vacuum is effective and taking care of those furry tumbleweeds you get daily with Huskies...." Read more
"...Also, the self-emptying feature leaves cat litter granuals in the device - I have to empty those manually in any event...." Read more
Customers find the robotic vacuum cleaner overpriced. They mention that replacement rollers and filters are expensive and have to be changed frequently. Some customers classify it as a luxury item, but you can do better. The battery is cheap and the air filter clogs frequently, making it not worth the frustration.

Good But Some Glitches
Top reviews from the United States
There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2023UPDATE #2: It has now been several more months. I love it I love it I love it. One major issue for me was that it was a pain in the butt to carry the base around in a multilevel home. After rereading the instruction manual I discovered that I’m not supposed to do that, that you can just carry the machine around and place it. As long as it does not have to empty the bin or recharge, it does not necessarily have to begin and end on the charging base. Ok so this has made my life so much easier. I did have to update my maps several times to teach it not to expect the base when it was done, and it has since behaved perfectly well. (The first few times it wandered around for a long time and the program said “searching for base” and I felt sorry for it 🤣. I didn’t want to delete my map that had the base on it and start over because I had to teach it to stay off of a shaggy rug and that took a lot of tweaking). I also have stopped being stingy with use and have given in and am carrying it around and running it more often and sometimes going over areas twice to get all the cat litter, and my house stays so clean. That means I will have to change the filters and rollers more often but oh well!
UPDATE: It has now been another month or so. I like the machine more and more and am changing the review to 5 stars. I have continued to tweak the programs I have set up on the app, and its performance improves. Since we have a cat, a major issue is the cat litter which she manages to drag all over. The machine sometimes will miss some litter in certain areas, and since we have dark floors it shows up brightly and drives me nuts. I can tell the robot to go over certain areas twice and that solves that problem. (Honestly the cleaners we hired would sometimes miss just as much if not more because the tiny specks get ground into the carpet). Another thing is that on our smooth wooden floors, the edge sweeping brush sometimes seems to scatter small particles around rather than pushing them into the rollers, and I have to have it go twice in places for that reason too. But with these tweaks it has been doing a really good job!! The suction is very good and the machine is surprisingly quiet. Also I am getting used to it and learning to leave it alone and not follow it around, so I’m much more relaxed about it. Another good thing—in the app the machine will tell you when it needs maintenance. There is a countdown to when I will need to change the filter and rollers, and I see that I will not need to change them nearly as often as I thought! The manual says filter every 2 month and rollers every 6 months, but according to my runtime it is going to be about double that, so I’ve got that going for me, which is nice 😉.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I do like this little machine. I hate and I mean HATE vacuuming and my husband has a bad neck and can’t vacuum. We had hired a cleaning service but it made the cat go crazy and just became much more stressful than it was worth. So we decided to get this realizing it would pay for itself (in the absence of the cleaning service) after a few months.
You need to pick up all your things and allow it to make mapping runs when you first get started. The interface is an app on the iPad and it is very straightforward to operate, and you can make detailed programs and constantly tweak them based on the machine’s performance. The suction power and ability to pick stuff up—including cat hair and cat litter—is excellent. It is not very loud. The cat is not bothered by it, and EVERYTHING bothers her, so I am kind of amazed by that. I love that it goes back to its base and empties itself when its little bin is full.
I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 for a couple reasons. It is godawful expensive. I have learned that the replacement rollers and filters are kind of expensive and have to be changed very regularly. Also—and I admit a lot of this is my issue due to OCD—so far I feel like I have to babysit it and be aware of where it is and what it’s doing, which defeats some of the purpose of getting the machine to do the work in the first place. I am hoping this will improve in time since I have tweaked some of the programs and the machine is learning, and I just need to get used to it. Some of this is due to the fact that I have a multilevel home and have to carry the base around and then tell it to go, rather than just setting programs and ignoring it, which can’t be helped. It would be much better in a single level.
All in all it’s really good, and has the potential to be great, but time will tell. We will see if the rollers and filters have to be changed as often as it says. Probably the filters do, because of my cat, but maybe the rollers can last a little longer.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 16, 2024I will preface this with saying that I still give this 5 stars even though we have run into a problem.
Set up was pretty simple, mapping is what takes the longest the first time that you run it. But as long as you have all your areas mapped it starts right away. You can schedule it to do cleanings on certain days, specify what areas to clean on specific days, and the option to run a job if something comes up. You can set up rooms or zones if you have a smaller area that just needs a once over. You can also set Keep Out zones if there’s an area you want it to avoid.
I specifically chose this model because it has a feature to avoid pet messes. We have not had any problems with it yet, although it does not avoid wet messes (only liquid). We have a cat that vomits every now and then in the most in opportune places and so far it has avoided them all! Sometimes they are all liquid so I set the vacuum to run while we are home in areas the cat has access to to avoid this being a problem as liquid can damage the vacuum.
We run it almost daily in our living room and kitchen and until very recently we have not had any problems with the device. We have a double coated dog and a long haired cat that shed year round and it has greatly improved the cleanliness of our house. I was very shocked when I changed the bag out the first time (we had to do it within a month of having the iRobot because of so much shedding and not having a vacuum in a while so you can imagine how much pet hair there was). It was cram packed with mostly hair but all kinds of things. For a little bag, it really did hold a lot, even more than a full sized vacuum in my opinion.
We have run into a problem 5 months in with it not suctioning, we changed the brushes out but ended up having to contact Roomba support. They were phenomenal and within 30 minutes we have a new cleaning head module being mailed to us, so I highly suggest registering your product with Roomba upon receipt.
So even though it’s only been 5 months and we are having to replace a major component, I still highly recommend. Roomba customer service is top notch, and I recommend the extended warranty as well for “just in case”.

5.0 out of 5 stars "J7+: Smart, Self-Emptying Cleaning Marvel."
"Tecnological Wonder: iRobot Roomba J7+!" The self-emptying feature is revolutionary; it demonstrates cutting-edge technology by detecting and avoiding obstructions such as cords and pet waste. But it still occasionally runs into things and makes a lot of noise. The Roomba J7+ is an effective and dependable option for keeping a clean home, despite these small issues, because to its smart features and general cleaning efficiency. With its self-emptying feature and ability to avoid obstacles, the occasional noise and bumps become insignificant, resulting in a smooth cleaning experience. The world of robotic vacuums has been enhanced by iRobot, a company that consistently leads the way in innovation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reseña Honesta - La mejor Roomba del mercado.
Quién ha tenido una Roomba o Robot limpiador en su vida sabe que esto cambia mucho la vida cotidiana.
Yo me acabo de actualizar de una Roomba 960 a esta J7+ y sólo puedo decir que no me arrepiento para nada.
Esta roomba es la más “inteligente” de mercado por la gran cantidad de sensores y cámara con luz que ayudan a la detección de obstáculos, sin embargo, esto no la hace que sea excelente en todo, pero si una de las mejores opciones a considerar vs otras.
Pros:
Sensores por todos lados, esto evita que se caiga por las escaleras, que choque o raspe innecesariamente los muebles, paredes o puertas de tu casa.
Cámara delantera: mejora su sistema de navegación y detecta obstáculos COMUNES: ropa, cables, zapatos, bolsas… la lista se actualiza en cada nueva actualización que reciba la roomba, y como tiene un led integrado, no es necesario prender siempre la luz para ayudar en su camino.
* Base de limpieza: su bolsa se cambia entre 3 y 6 meses dependiendo de cuanto espacio aspira tu roomba.
* Mapeo inteligente: agrega habitaciones o zonas de limpieza o zonas prohibidas.
* Una o dos pasadas para aspirar.
* Compatible con Alexa, Google Assistant o atajos de Siri.
Cons:
* Es bastante ruidosa, sobre todo cuando se activa la base para limpiar la roomba.
* A pesar de que la base limpia la roomba hay que darle mantenimiento cada semana o cada 2 semanas para remover cabellos atorados o posibles basuras que no permitan su funcionamiento optimo.
* La batería dura poco.
* A veces la app de Alexa no es asertiva con las instrucciones dadas.
* Es grande, considera el espacio si es que tu depa o casa es pequeña y ni cuentas con espacio en tu piso para darle un buen acomodo.
* Dado que es un producto recién lanzado al mercado aún tiene ciertos errores.
* La creación de mapas no es la mejor, yo he tenido problemas que he resuelto cambiando de lugar su base y corriendo un par de veces el mapeo.
* Ya no tiene el botón para limpieza circular manual.
Algunos tips para su mejor uso:
Si eres un desesperado y quieres usarla antes de mapear TODA tu casa, puedes comenzar situando la base en un lugar con buen espacio y comenzar con un trabajo de descubrimiento, pararlo cuando sea necesario y continuar después con el resto de tu casa.
Los mapas no son tan precisos como los genera la Braava Jet m6, pero tiene la ventaja de que al completarlo puedas compartirlo con tu otroa robots compatibles ( o si ya tienes otro robot que mapea, puedes usarlos)
No dejes nada tirado en tu piso, aun cuando es bueno detectando obstáculos no siempre los evita, sobre todo cosas pequeñas como aretes, monedas, pasadores y cosas por el estilo.
No lo dejes limpiar zonas mojadas, pueden dañar los sensores.
Crea tantas zonas de limpieza o prohibidas como necesites, siempre ayudan con los pequeños detalles como zonas que no se limpian bien en las pasadas por habitación o tapetes que son delicados y no debe pasar la roomba.
Yo recomiendo comprar una cinta de “Burletes” para suavizar los bumpers de la roomba y ni lastimar muebles delicados.
Revisa rodillos y ruedas cada 15 días o cada mes para retirar cualquier detalle que evite que funcione adecuadamente.
Recuerda que estos robots están para ayudarnos con tareas diarias que nos consumen tiempo, no esperes que reemplacen al 100% el trabajo humano.

1.0 out of 5 stars Useless for U.K.
Bought from Amazon .co.uk. Cam with US plug so I had to have an adapter. Then machine was unable to self empty because power difference between U.K. and US. Why sell US version in U.K.? Had to return it . Hopeless.

1.0 out of 5 stars Clean Base not working, and seller refused to refund me
The iRobot not emptying the bin, I requested return and it was approved by Amazon, the seller returned the package after I sent it and paid $300 shipping, now I lost $1400 dollars to thin air. Amazon should help me, and Amazon now is telling me the seller is no longer in Amazon store , that is bull **, it’s not my concern I want my money back .

2.0 out of 5 stars dont buy from Amazon US if you live outside the US
the only issue i faced is the communication between the rumba and its clean base, which is faulty because of the product voltage. i even purchased a convertor but still didn't do the job. what this means is that the rumba won't discharge automatically, although it should.
other than that, if this rumba version is launched in your country, then it is worth the cost, as it cleans quite nicely.
