    iRobot J5 combo

    Loved it for about a week, after that it kept having problems, it would send me notifications that it was stuck and it would be in the middle of my living room with nothing around it and it kept telling me that it was offline and I would need to reconnect it to the WiFi, none of my other smart devices have any problems with the WiFi, or it would run out of battery before it would make it to the self charging station.

    Solid Robot but useful for specific user cases.

    This is review of Roomba Combo j5 Robot Vacuum & Mop in Graphite color. At glance at core of the vacuum’s purpose, it does clean well. Its robot aspect does good support to map, avoid objects while cleaning, returning to the base. The package includes: 1. The vacuum itself 2. Base Charging Station 3. Filter 4. Sweeping Brush (1 extra) 5. Combo Bin 6. Drip Tray 7. Microfiber Mopping Pad 8. Line Cord. How long take to charge the battery to full: I couldn’t find information of how long take, but from the usage, it took 1hr 24 min to fully charged. How long take to vacuum (data from the usage and from the App): A) With Bin for Sweeping Only: 1 Hour 6 Min to cover area of 822 ft2 B) With Mopping Bin: 1 Hour 55 Min with 47 Min and covered 769 ft2 C) With Bin for Sweeping Only: 25 Min to cover area of 191 ft2. As side note, in some cases, it has Pause time that I couldn’t notice how it work but it add to the total time. How often the bin need to be emptied: The Bin is small that depending on how dirt is the space, it can fill very fast needing manually empty. From the application can set the option to continue working or stop and return to the base. Using the combo bin to mop and vacuum, does it stop if it run out of water: No. The vacuum using combo bin, it mop and vacuum. As it continue picking up on dirt, if the water bin is empty, it does following: 1. It continue and from the Application doesn’t have any option to control either to pause and return to the base 2. From the application can’t have visibility to the level of water either how much remain or if it has emptied such manually to pause and fill the tank. What type of functionality includes via App: 1. Scheduling by Time, By Room and frequency 2. Map First Only function which allow to perform mapping only which is faster process. 3. Map while Vacuum 4. Edit label of the mapped rooms. 5. History 6. Add specific room names to Favorite dashboard allowing to Start from main screen What does well from short time of usage: 1. Avoiding obstacle does work but sometime sort of not. In some cases, observed the vacuum avoided a doll on the floor. But it didn’t a shopping bag in the square shape. It did what does when approach a wall that is softly touch and bounce back. 2. Touching the wall or furniture: as mentioned above it touch sort of soft way and bounce back. Compared to other brand that sort of crash and damage furniture, j5 does bit better. 3. Human input to improve object recognition. Once it complete, via application checking the result, it ask to confirm either objects found during the process are temporary, or object to avoid then update to the database as optional. 4. Emptying the bin is bit easier compared to other brand. As it place for charging, the bin side stay at front opposed to the charging center. This help not having remove the entire vacuum in order remove the bin and place back. 5. Easy to set from app to start the vacuum a specific area. It does cover only that specified room name and return to the base. 6. Easy to specify which part of area not to vacuum or not to mop. This only work if the room name is well defined from the mapped area. What doesn’t work well: 1. The bin is too small hence it is for short space or space with not much of dirt to pick up, small space to mop. Hence if use case is opposite or largely bigger, j5 is not for those who leave the house for work and comeback at night, as the vacuum wouldn’t have completed covering entire area. 2. The mapping doesn’t work well in the beginning or first couple of run. In the completed work, it include map option to see covered area. But it is not shown until after several run. 3. A bit noisy, but after having used two different brands with same issue, it seems universal subject. But this affect for those if work from home that require online meeting and attempt to clean the house. To conclude, it does well vacuuming as robot. It has power for pickup dirts and mop well directed via App. It does recognize obstacles reasonably ok. But for being a vacuum without self emptying base, it is not for every use case and limit to users with small space or who reasonably maintain clean such doesn’t need to pick up too much dirt that full the bin fast. Then the human input to improve object recognition, depending on preference might not be helpful as require to monitor constantly the result and manually intervene which is bit opposite to the idea of robot and automation. So it is recommendable but for specific users base space and cleaning habit.
