iRobot Home +4

We have a fairly large main floor and 4 dogs, so as you can imagine, it’s a nightmare keeping up with the cleaning. We live on a few acres so the dogs have the dream life outside with as much playtime as they want, which means they bring in so much dirt! The roomba has made a huge difference with helping me keep up with sweeping up the dirt!! There are so many features to help you personalize or organize or prioritize where you want cleaned. It’s a learning roomba so it modifies it’s cleaning every time it cleans, which is super nice. One thing I would recommend is to allow roomba to send you notifications to your smart phone (everything will already be on your smart phone in the app) because if it gets stuck or needs cleaning it will send a notification or the message will be there when you open the app next. However, if you don’t see it, or hear the noise that the roomba makes when needing assistance, it will sit until you help it. This isn’t very often since it learns where to go and you will catch on to when it needs cleaning or when to empty the base. The only other con I can think of is that it doesn’t do a “fantastic” job on our Type of throw carpet, that being said, it does a decent job and really does know how to get itself unstuck etc. We just prefer a deeper vacuuming on our carpet which we use our other vaccum for, but all in all, it does a fantastic job. Definitely get this roomba if you have pets or kids that create a mess!!

My robot mop has changed my life! My floors show everything! Wearing socks instead of shoes is so bad! It shows footprints galore! I’ve been a slave to my floors and so depressed that we spent so much money on them! I tried figuring out how I could afford a maid to just come once a day and mop them for me. I even made a new rule of everyone keeping shoes on! Do you know how hard that is when your kids are trained to take shoes off when they come inside! Impossible! Then my sister told me about this robot mop at Christmas, and I thought why not try it, $300 mop vs a new $15K floor can’t hurt to try. I do a quick vacuum in the morning and then hit a button on my phone and then magic happens! My mop cleans so well on my mat finish LVP floor. It took some time programming my favorite settings, but once I figured out my favorite it’s so easy! I love my floors! And even though they look like a mess the next day, it doesn’t matter, because you can mop everyday if you want! Sorry, you can let the robot mop everyday! Ha! I’ve had this mop 2 months and I’ve only mopped my floors myself 2 times. Once a month to get places the mop can’t get and to scrub my baseboards is completely reasonable! Worth every penny! I’m a big believer in having the right tools for the job. This mop is perfect for flat mat finish floors. You want to make sure your floors are vacuumed well first. Turn on a few lights or open windows. Then let it do it’s thing! Magic!

I’ve been using my Roomba i7+ for some time now, and I’m thoroughly satisfied. Even with some of its quirks (it’ll miss certain areas within a specific cleaning map and often will clean areas outside of a specific cleaning map + add that area to the cleaning map without being told to do so, it’s also quite a bit nosier than I anticipated, but we’ve gotten used to it at this point), I still think it deserves 5 stars. I have wood floors and a husky mix who sheds quite a bit. The dust and hair build up can get outta hand quick. We swifter daily but went a stint without running the Roomba and it was all too clear the significant difference it makes. We were constantly tracking dust and hair on our socks or house shoes, with Roomba, that doesn’t happen. The device deftly maneuvers around corners and against the edges of furniture. It will run over cords every now and again, but for the most part, doesn’t get tangled up in them. I’ve only ever had a couple of clogs, which were quickly and conveniently resolved. I haven’t used the schedule features because I prefer to be around when it’s running, just to be aware in case it runs into something. But if you’re the type who generally has an open space and remember to put things up, you could certainly take advantage of that feature. All in all, there are still at least a few improvements to be made, but for what it is, I’m happy with it!
