Customer Ratings & Reviews

Let’s start with the bad (because there’s not much of it to be had): - the base station, when emptying the robot, is like a jet engine taking off. It’s loud and startling and there’s no warning beeps that the robot has docked and finished (this is why it’s 4 stars instead of 5). - the robot will quickly get scratched and scuffed (cosmetic only). The Roomba J7+ has a fantastic set of sensors that help it avoid things like cords. In practice, this works better in better light situations, but it also has a flashlight on the front of the device to help it spot and avoid obstacles right in front of it. It navigates around things very nicely and resumes a grid pattern around your room, cleaning and creating nice lines as it goes. Having previous Roombas, this one is miles ahead in terms of smarts, but also: it’s very, very thorough. The room map it generated after 2 cleans was almost perfect. Even on low-light it was able to find its way around the house and avoid things that would have stalled out the lesser models. If you’re used to Roomas already, you’ll be familiar with some of the serviceable pieces. In terms of the vacuum itself, it’s VERY quiet - the flashlight does make it a bit less discrete, but overall very impressive. There’s a clean by room feature as well, so once it creates a map of your space, you can tell it to go clean a specific room. No need to let it roam the entire house and hope it gets the area you want (as you had to in the past), just tell it to focus on the areas that need the most attention. You can even check out the photos of the object it detected and attempted to avoid in the app. The updates to the app have been really refreshing and made it much easier to use. Overall, I’m very impressed with this latest tech leap, compared to other robots with similar features, the Roomba is by far the best.

We had hoped it was the answer to cleaning our floors but we had to return it because it was just too noisy. :-)

This vacuum is smart and does all the dirty for me. The vacuum will learn the layout of your house and you can divide the area per room. Once you separate the rooms, you can request to vacuum only specific areas of your house. I easily connected it to my Alexa and the app is easy to use.

Easy set up. Battery is long lasting the brain on this robot is incredible- Could not be happier - we have very expensive vaccums and when my husband walked in from work saw bedroom carpets he said wow you had rhe carpets shamphooed. Thats how well this machine works.

We are happy to report having this run a few times a week has drastically reduced stray dog hair. We have a short hair breed that sheds a lot. The hair was all over the new composite floor (static) Cue this bot to resolve the issue and reduce the need to vacuum daily.

I got this to replace a competitors low-end robot. It is used to clean two rooms, less than 400 square feet total. This robot does not clean as well as the competitors. It leaves a lot behind. When I use the "extra clean" mode the battery drains off and the robot simply stops where ever it may be without finishing to job. When it makes it back to the dock it does not always seat right and doesn't charge. The app does not always connect.

It requires so much maintenance, tires and other parts have to be taken out and they’re extremely hard to put back in, it’s not worth it.

Meh. Its pretty cool but is already having software issues. It keeps saying smart map issues, which ive followed instructions and it doesnt resolve it. Dont expect it to deep clean.

Love this roomba, easy to setup and add no go zones. Never got stuck after couple of months. Asks questions about new objects and I tested, it really detects and avoids cables, slippers, etc. Bas station is very powerful but loud, so don't place it somewhere that it will scare you.

Waiting on a replacement but the cleaning base never emptied the Roomba and it’s quite loud. We shall see if the replacement is any better.

LOVE IT. - Named it Everett!! Goes under beds(dust bunny) sofa. Will sweep your kitchen & bathroom if you like. One less chore to do. Everette came run everyday. Best for allergen, ( pet hair) Do know why I waited so long to purchase Everette.

Really wanted to love this but sent it back after only having it two days. Doesnt pick up pet hair just leaves piles of it on the rugs.

I love coming home to freshly vacuumed floors. I should have bought one of these years ago. The camera is a game-changer. It does get stuck every now and then, but still worth it.

Says it supposed to work better than the S9 because it has cameras. Still gets stuck on the ledge of my sliding doors.,.. everyday. But still eliminates the need for me to vacuum

We upgraded to this model to have the benefit of mapping rooms and cleaning a specific room, We were not disappointed. The mapping feature is fairly accurate and provides the cleaning flexibility needed. The fact it can avoid wires on the floor is a big plus.

I bought mine more than 2 weeks ago and the spinner motor stopped working the day after the refund period. This is very disappointing that I will have to deal with this alone, especially for an expensive product in such a short amount of time. IT ONLY LASTED 2 WEEKS BEFORE IT FAILED. Buyer Beware

I have a multiple cat household and have had a botvac for years. My least favorite part was emptying the dirt bin. Cat fur, and litter dust. Gross!! The self emptying feature is a lifesaver!! Also the feature that identifies obstacles is great. No more vacuumed up fur balls!

Does great for lite, daily vacuuming. It doesn't get tangled up with long hair. However, it doesn't always get edges or corners we'll.

Great maintenance vacuuming. These robots have gotten better over the years, but they don't quite replace an upright. As long as you know you will still need to pull out the big one once in a while for stuff like embedded pet hair or ground in dirt it is a great convenience.

love love love my roomba. the only complaint i have is that it doesnt go up on my carpet (which is a little thick but not too much). other than that it's perfect!
