In our tests, we found that the j7+ swiftly removed dust, dirt, and hair from pets. The counter-rotating rubber brushes held the debris in its place rather than scattering it around the floor. It was able capture small pieces of gravel, sand, and even a tiny bit of grit. Most robots can't achieve this feat. And all of this without getting caught in our pet's hair shedding.
The j7+, while not as smart as the Roomba S9 for $1,217+ Self-Emptying Vacuum from iRobot and can't clean the stairs, is an option for those who require both mopping and a vacuum. It's not too expensive, and the iRobot app makes it very user-friendly.
The iRobot Home App is easy to use, but we found it less reliable than other robotic cleaner apps. It can take a while to download updates, and often it's hard to determine whether the update actually functioning until you've seen it in the action.

The Q5+ is exceptionally soft when it comes to obstacles like table legs and walls. This makes it an excellent choice for homes that have a lot of furniture. It's also extremely thorough in cleaning up dust bunnies. This is a area where many cheaper robot cleaner amazon vacuums fall short. The technology used to navigate in the Q5+ is fantastic as well, with only a few missed corners and along walls.
The Q5+, as with other Roborock products, can be controlled by only a few buttons on your device or via the Roborock App. The app allows you to start and stop cleaning. You can also set up schedules, create virtual barriers and no-go zones or alter your home map, or re-label rooms.

The base station is attractive and hides it when not in use, and its size is relatively compact.

This means it could get stuck or confused in certain corners or rooms of the house. It also can't climb stairs like other models and doesn't come with a dock that can create a cleaning zone for carpets that are soft.
The Freo X Ultra robot vacuum and mop is a great choice for those who want a vacuum robot that can do it all.

The eufy G30 has some flaws. The iRobot Roomba is more durable and has lower cost of operation. It charges faster, has the same battery life and performs better on bare carpet or floors with low pile. It has a larger dust bin, which does not require as much emptying. It also has border strips that block it from certain areas. The G30 is more affordable and simpler to maintain. Its smaller dust canister does not require emptying as often and it struggles less with bulky materials such as cereal.
