K Sethi –
Have owned a J7+ and Braava before and given the good experience with them wanted an all in one combo which refills the cleaning liquid and had a better suction. Based on the hype went with Roborock S8. BIG mistake (well that’s for another review) and after having sunk my money in a place where the sun never shines, went for what I should have gone with in the first place. Enter the J9 combo and it delighted right out of the box. Suction is much higher and the mopping is top notch. Scrubbing the mop pad feature was never a priority as it leaves residue in the machine and creates a hygiene issue. Moreover the dirty water eventually lets off a smell. It’s easier to swap the mop pad. Cons: The navigation is still the same as in S7 and could have been upgraded to a LIDAR instead but as long as it does the job, it’s fine. Would have been great if there was just a mop only mode and hopefully it can be addressed with a software update.

love it! This vacuuming and mopping are incredibly useful, with excellent cleaning performance. It saves a lot of time and easy to clean

After getting a software update the Roomba is garbage now, with docking issues, charging issues, Roomba doesn’t go in straight line and get stuck when there is nothing around it and connective issues to the iCloud, would not recommend this, with no support from IRobot, for amount of money this unit costed, i expect it to work a lot better then what it is now and getting support from IRobot after they brick the thing after the software update

-Base is compact and looks nice.
-Once it’s done 2 mapping runs and the keep out zones are adjusted you can pretty much just let it do its thing and not worry about it.
-Vacuum and mop performance is very good, even with a shedding Golden Retriever in the house.
-Obstacle avoidance is really really good.
-I know it’s manufactured in China, but it’s an American company, and that makes a difference to me.
-Changing the mop pad is no more work than emptying the dirty water, and I know the mop pad and base are always clean.
-My 4th Roomba and the best so far.
Con’s
-You have to be pretty obsessive with it for the first 2 days. You need to unclutter the house, let it do 2 complete mapping runs, and spend some time creating and adjusting keep out zones.
-Bathroom Mats are a problem. Keep out zones haven’t been the answer for me. I don’t know if the answer is taping them down, picking them up before each run, or just letting them get moved around by the robot.
It’s not a completely frustration free process to get the J9+ Combo set up, but once it is set up, it’s nearly perfect.
It cleans very well, picks up dog hair, mops well and consistently finishes every job without getting stuck.
Auto empty vacuum and auto fill mop functions are great.
I really don’t mind washing and changing the mop pad, I think it’s probably better than hoping the machine cleans the mop, and then having to empty the dirty water and clean the base.
Everything seems to be made in China, but buying from an American company appeals to me.
Roomba’s are really easy to replace parts when needed.
I Really like this robot, I’m glad I sent back the Roborock Q-Revo and bought this. The Q-Revo had all the bells and whistles, but the vacuum performance was terrible, obstacle avoidance was awful, and the build quality wasn’t great.
I think this is the best Roomba yet.
It’s not perfect and is a little frustrating for the first couple days, but the effort has been worth it. It works flawlessly every day.
I hope Jarvis will continue working well and be my new helper for many years.

iRobot Roomba Combo j9+ Self-Emptying & Auto-Fill Robot Vacuum & Mop
PROS:
Product shipped and arrived very quickly – that’s the best part of this review.
Nice basic features like NO MOP zones and NO GO ZONES, decent object detection.
CONS:
You can return it within 30 days, but don’t expect a refund on the return for about 3 weeks. In my case, this is on, not iRobot. Wasn’t a big deal to me, but if you are low on cash and want to purchase a different one it’ll be a while.
Device rams everything in your house and tries to push walls and furniture 3 or 4 times before it continues onward. Literally bounces off once, then twice, then three times. By the time the Roomba was finished mapping my house it looked like it was 4 years old; was scratched and scuffed up all around. I thought maybe this was limited to mapping, but it turns out it did it all the time, no matter what.
It couldn’t find the base ½ the time and I would have to pick it up and put in the base unless I wanted some humor and I’d let it run for 30 minutes missing it’s ramp by 1/3 of an inch and then driving in circles and trying repeatedly just to fail. This robot could get lost in the packaging it was sent it.
All my major issues started with communication errors on the base and off the base. After those settled down came the major issues as it told me the suction system was clogged. I checked it and it was a little dirty, but nothing obstructed it completely. After that the final death error was filter clogged and need to be changed. Changed the filter and nothing, reset everything same error. I believe the code was error code 30, but not 100% sure as it has been a bit.
Mopping is horrible – it’s like taking a wash rag and mopping your whole house while spraying cleaner down. The floor had streaks all over it and numerous missed spots and trails.
Vacuuming was pretty good when it would run which wasn’t very long, but not the best.
Final thoughts:
I have researched many vacuuming and mopping robots. I have concluded that even though they are the same make and model, some of them are great and some of them are total flops and pieces of junk. So, you may have the same Roomba I just wrote about, and it is running perfectly and doing a great job. You may decide to purchase one and it works great, or you may decide to purchase one and it’s just like mine. Roll the dice? Just remember the refund period is long.
If you research other manufacturers, you’ll see the same results. Some say theirs is EXCELLENT and some say theirs are total pieces of junk. I think all the companies need a better QA or something.

I wonder why so many bad comments. This vaccin and mop is perfect after over two months of daily usage.

I truly wanted to love the J9+ Combo, but enough is enough. I can’t recommend it. This product is fundamentally broken in so many ways. I “upgraded” to this from the Roomba 980, which I absolutely loved. However, I hardly used it because the home had to be pre-cleaned constantly, and it didn’t mop. I wanted to get a Braava but never did. Then suddenly, the competition for the robotic vacuum market became actually competitive. But I had such a good experience with iRobot’s Roomba that I decided to go with their top-of-the-line model, the J9+ combo.
So, the good:
– Room mapping is pretty decent, and being able to dictate which rooms to go to and clean, avoid, plus how to clean (mop and vacuum, or just vacuum), is nice.
– It does a good job vacuuming, better than the Roomba 980, and more accurately.
– Battery life is very good.
– Obstacle detection is pretty decent.
– The docking station is nice looking and convenient because it has storage.
The bad:
– It docks correctly only about 30% of the time. If the Roomba does not detect the docking station, it doesn’t empty the contents from the vacuum, and you can’t refill its water tank. The solution to this is to take out the Roomba and manually send it home again.
– Of the 30% that it does detect the docking station, 40% of the time it fails to vacuum due to a “sealing problem,” requiring me to try it again or remove Roomba from the docking station and send it home.
– Mopping is mediocre. It does not seem to saturate the washing pad enough, or it’s not spraying enough, but you can notice lines of what’s wet and what’s not as Roomba drives around. It’s frustrating.
– The home mapping system seems to fall apart if a landmark has moved. For example, I moved a speaker, and it threw Roomba off every run since, and I had to run a map of my home again to fix it.
– The dirt gets caked on the suction port where the rollers are because I assume the dirt’s wet when it’s sucked. It’s quite difficult to clean off and seems like a huge design flaw.
– Constantly erroring. The final straw was it stopping a job because there was an issue with the floor sensors. The floor sensors are clean; they should be fine.
– This thing gets DIRTY. I have had this for a month, and compared to my Roomba 980, which I’ve had since 2018, there are hardly any scuffs or anything on it. The J9+ combo looks like it’s run a marathon and fell on its face each time.
– You cannot have it only mop; it must vacuum and mop or just vacuum.
I don’t know if my product is defective, or if this is just how it is. However, as of right now, I can’t recommend this to anyone. At $1,799, this is a rip-off, and even at a highly discounted price of $1,399, it’s not good.
