The Roomba Combo J7 Plus comes with a retractable mop pad, and when paired with iRobot’s highly intelligent programming, grants an automated clean like never before – and without getting your carpets soggy.

The iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ is a brilliant robot to have in your home. It has a great design, excellent performance and the iRobot app interface is so simple and easy to use with a multitude of features that it makes this two-in-one device exceptionally easy to recommend. It's not the cheapest device out there, nor the quietest, and we really would like the ability to choose when the bin is emptied, as well as a slightly larger water tank. But overall, the Combo j7+ does a sterling job at keeping on top of two of our most dreaded daily chores, and comes highly recommended.

It's so much smarter the little app sends photos every time it runs and ask if it should avoid them, it's alot less set and forget then mine. I have found the camera light helpful aswell at stopping it getting stuck. All up very happy with the purchase

Once it maps your house the rest is easy

The roomba is great. After two clean-everything runs, it had pretty much mapped my place, and allowed me to customise the map. I can now schedule it to do whatever rooms I want. It will head straight for the area it is tasked to clean, will methodically clean it, and go straight onto the next area or to base. No random driving in circles like the low spec models. When it's moving between areas it saves power by turning the vacuum off. Obstacle avoidance works well. My work room has all sorts of bits and cables littering the floor, and it moves around them. If it gets full or the battery goes empty, it will return to base to empty and/or charge, and then return to where it left off until the job is finished. When it gets hung up on a particular carpet corner, it has always managed to free itself, go around and continue on. I once deliberately blocked the return path to the base, and after trying to get through for a minute, it switched to using the long way around via a door through ano...
