iRobot - Roomba s9+ (9550) Robot Vacuum & Braava jet m6 (6112) Robot Mop bundle - Black

I love our roomba, makes the floor feel as if it's already mopped

Not necessarily worth the price but I do like it nonetheless. Both roomba vacuum and braava jet work in unison to clean my floors. I just wish they were cheaper so I could keep one on each of my floors.

Best gift I've ever gotten for mother's day. What's better than not sweeping or mopping again! Very easy instructions, I do like techy stuff though. Just make sure to treat it with love, clean it and make sure nothing is on it's way cause it will def eat it lol I just love it.

About 2 weeks in and both have done exactly what they need to do. Setup was easy and map runs were done the day I got it setup. The roomba did get stuck in one spot during mapping but now doesn't seem to be an issue. The beta mode on the braava lets it go over threshold by simply putting up a zone. The map itself is great with the clean and keep out zonrs and its easy to edit areas. I recently synced it to google voice and it works great. Whether I'm near or far away they go to work when I ask them too.

The Roomba has been a great purchase and our floors have been much cleaner. Although it still needs help every so often, it’s nothing that is a problem. It took a few runs to figure out our floor plan, but now it can identify assigned rooms. The best job it does is scaring the kids into making sure all their stuff is off the floor! Would definitely recommend the self emptying option. The Braava, or mop robot, that came with the Roomba had issues from the start. I have contacted customer service and after agreeing it had issues, are sending us a replacement.

Great looking combo! The S9 is a great vacuum. It does have the tendency to be fairly loud when operating. I recommend running when away from home or when not in meetings or trying to watch television. The disposal bin is a definitely worthy of the “+” for the S9. It makes emptying the vacuum less of a chore each time the vacuum dust bin is full. I did encounter the dreaded Error 31 upon setting up my vacuum and had to exchange it based on the recommendation from iRobot support. Mapping with the vacuum was a breeze, just ensure floors are clear and it doesn’t trap itself in rooms. The ability to customize floor plans and specify areas to clean was quite nice. Also the ability to team with the Braava m6 to mop after vacuuming an area is nice. I would definitely recommend the S9+. Now the Braava m6, the dumber twin in this duo. While it is beautiful it lacks some of the smarts of its S9 sibling. Mapping the house was difficult. It would consistently get lost and not find its way back to the base. I have yet for it to complete a cleaning without requiring my assistance to place it back on its base. The m6 also cannot operate in dark or dimly lit rooms. It will either not leave its base or would get lost when navigating to a darker area of the house. Please ensure lights are on when it’s in use. It would be great if there was a m6+ equivalent that had an cleaning solution refill tank. It does a decent job cleaning medium to light spills. Do not expect this product to replace doing a thorough mopping. It should be considered as an assistant to keep floors clean and tidy. I recommend the Braava m6 with caution. If you have a well lit home with minor spills, then the m6 is for you. Some other frustrations to note, both the S9 and Braava m6 must perform their own mapping of your home rather than having one machine map the home and sharing the home map between the two machines. Also, in order to use them as a pair those individual maps must be created otherwise the feature won’t work for cleaning certain areas. I also wish the iRobot app would share information of where the vacuum and mop are currently cleaning to make them easy to find if an error occurs. It only sometimes very briefly show the room being cleaned while it’s operating. I’d an error occurs that information is not available and you must make the machine play a sound to locate it (if the battery hasn’t died). These products are good (when they work) and look great if you prefer your appliances to match aesthetically. However, there is definitely room for improvement especially with the m6.

Had a few hiccups setting it up, and didn’t help when the whole cloud service through AWS went down the day after we got it. But since that got fixed been running fantastic! Vacuum works great and the self empty is a must! We have used it for a week and a half straight and haven’t had to empty it yet. The only negative is the mop not being able to cross thresholds that are a little tall. It confuses them with a rug. The mop action however is great, no streaks or leaks. I had to play with it a bit to get the no go zones and rooms mapped but once it’s set we can just pick rooms and let it go. We have a standard clean pattern with Vac/Mop with the press of one button. I would also recommend a strong internet connection since it has to go through the cloud for the maps. We have DSL and it’s hit or miss to no fault of iRobot.

Have only had this unit for a few weeks, but the early results are excellent overall. Set up for both the vacuum and mop were simple. Vacuum: Mapping for the vac was quick and easy and the companion mobile app gives you plenty of options for establishing doorways, no-go zones, setting a schedule, etc, etc. We have a sunken living room and the stair detection works perfectly to stop the robot from going over the edge. We also have 2 dogs and this vacuum covers about 1800 sqft of hardwood surface and keeps the floors clean of dirt and debris and - most importantly - dog hair. Only real complaint with the vac is that it's LOUD. Even with the Quiet Clean setting enabled in the app, this thing is still loud. Not as loud as a traditional upright vac, but loud enough that you can hear it running from anywhere in the house. And if you're having a conversation in the same room as the vac, you better talk loudly. Light sleepers will not want to schedule this bot to clean overnight. Braava Mop: Probably too early to give an accurate grade, but so far so good. Because of the size of our house and the limited cleaning capacity of the mop, we do need to break up the cleaning routines a little bit and only have it do 2 rooms at a time, otherwise it will run out of water/solution before finishing. Mapping proved to be a little more difficult with this bot because of a transition strip on the floor separating the kitchen and laundry room. It went in the laundry room just fine but it wouldn't cross the strip to come back out. Fortunately, the app allows you to designate thresholds where ever you want. Once mapping was complete, I was able to place a threshold in that particular doorway and how the bot goes back and forth without issue. Seems to do a decent job keeping the floors generally clean, but I feel like I'm still going to need to do an occasional mopping of my own to get in corners and other "precision cleaning" that the bot can't do. This is a very quiet unit though. You can barely hear it even when it runs right by you. iRobot App: This is where Roomba makes it's money, imo. We got this bundle to replace a Shark IQ vacuum primarily because the Shark app was absolute garbage with limited functionality. Smart tech is only as good as the app that controls is and the app for these bots is excellent. Designating and labeling rooms, no-go zones, and even setting the order in which you want your bot to clean rooms is quick and easy. I can't rave about the app enough. Added Bonus: Alexa compatibility has also been flawless so far, which makes it great if you need a spot cleanup in between your scheduled cleanings. Just tell Alexa to vacuum or mop the kitchen or bathroom or wherever you need it to clean while you focus on doing other things. Overall, we're very pleased with this purchase. But keep in mind that you will still need to do a little cleaning up after them from time to time, but they're great for handling routine cleaning which frees us up for so many other things.
