It has been really helpful to use, saves me a lot of times and doesn’t do a lot of noise. Keeps the floor really clean, both carpet and wooden floor.

iRobot is the best robot vacuum you can buy right now. It beat out all the others in mapping, creating virtual boundaries and detecting and avoiding obstacles, which means it’s the best “set it and forget it” smart robot vacuum — and it even empties itself. More importantly, it picks up dust and debris and cat litter from hardwood floors and low-pile carpeting better than the others we tested.

I had so much hope for this vacuum. Our main floor is all tile with limited obstacles obstacles that most houses would have breakfast area, dining area, kitchen foyer after two days of use the wall brush on the unit completely broke. It does not avoid obstacles very well and continually got stuck under my kitchen table, it would vacuum the same area over and over again. Maybe it was my error so I kept the vacuum learned the The app created room dividers, but I had to make sure that every one of my dining room chairs were off the floor obstacles were put away and it seemingly did an OK job even with the broken wall brushes. However It now has trouble navigating back to its Homebase and and I consistently get an error that it needs to reboot in the middle of the night while cleaning. Also that there’s not enough light for the vacuum which why would I wanna have a light on all night long for the vacuum? Maybe I need to go for the upgraded model, but very disappointed as our home should have been almost a model home for a vacuum such as this try to see if Best Buy will take it back after one month of use and possibly upgrade to a different model or different brand .

Vacuum part is great, but I wouldnt buy this again as the mopping function is just a microfiber towel attachment and does not perform.

I replaced an older model I had for years with this one and not been very happy. This one is constantly getting “stuck” on flat surfaces, throwing errors. It says the bin is full within 5 minutes of starting. It worked fine when purchased, but I haven’t had it a full year yet and wish I had gotten something different. I would keep looking and avoid this model

We moved to a house which is hard floor and a little carpet area, First of all, I’m impressed with the mapping and the way it displays your home map perfectly as it is, and let me select and create favorites, was able to select no mop mode with no difficulty at all, app is so easy to use and it did a great job picking up all the invisible dust and hair, mopping works great, worth a buy. I was using different ones but I wish I should have used iRobot all the time.

The iRobot Roomba Combo j5+ is a solid choice if you want a hands-free way to keep your floors clean. It vacuums and mops, dodges obstacles like cords and pet messes, and lets you customize cleaning schedules through the app. It’s great for picking up pet hair and dirt, though the mopping feature could be better—it doesn’t automatically detect carpets, so you’ll need to set no-mop zones. It’s a little loud when emptying its bin, but overall, it’s a reliable helper for keeping your home tidy with minimal effort.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about the Roomba Combo j5. We’re thrilled you are loving your new robot. Three cheers for clean floors!

Wow!! Works awesome. The fact that you can activate it from any where, and maps your house . Only negative is it takes a minute to find it’s parking location.

The Vacuming power and app is great. The mop is not very useful since once the floor is wet it just struggles to move in the slippery tiles.

Worst one I've had

When I first purchased this vacuum it was very LOUD and I couldn't figure out why. I contacted Roomba but I didn't receive a return response for about a week. I grew tired of waiting and examined the robot myself. The side sweeper brush wasn't working (straight out of the box) and I returned it to the store. It was only AFTER I returned it that I got a response from Roomba. Hoping that it was a one-time thing, I got a new one at the store and while it was quieter, within a week the side sweeper brush broke AGAIN. Once again I didn't receive a response from Roomba until after I returned the robot.
Furthermore, its detection of walls and obstacles is poor and often woke up everyone in the night trying to get into their room despite instructions in the app not to enter that area.
Add to that the fact that the "mop" is just a wet pad that's swept over the floor (no scrubbing) and it's just not worth the hassle. Would NOT recommend.

That is exactly what I was looking for. Cleans up hardwood floors, and carpets. Useful for that occasional mopping. For the first use maps your floor plan and works flawlessly.

Suction is great but the smart mapping technology isn't very strong
