iRobot Roomba j7+
The iRobot Roomba j7+ robot vacuum is one of the most feature-rich vacuums available. It's priced reasonably for a device of this quality. It comes with a clever app that allows you to plan your home, set cleaning schedules, block zones and much more. It also works with Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to make use of your voice to control the machine. This is a great feature for pet owners. The application can be used to create training runs that will help the machine stay clear of pet poop.
The robot's unique mapping technology makes it stand out from its competitors. The j7+ can produce an accurate home map that includes the rooms and their contents. It is also able to store multiple maps so that it can clean different areas at a different intervals if needed. This makes the j7+ clean much more thoroughly than other robots, and is particularly effective in picking up hair from pets.
iRobot claims that the j7+ will avoid pet waste. It certainly did well in our tests. It achieves this through a set of sensors that helps it recognize the size and shape of various kinds of pet waste. Then, it uses that information to help it determine if the j7+ is required to avoid the area which is an important advantage over other robots.
Another distinctive feature of the J7+ is the ability to self-empty. If the j7+ detects that its dirt bag is full, it will automatically return to its base and eject the contents into its Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal system. This is much easier than having to empty a dust bin on a robot that is competing. You'll only have to do this once a few month.
Another great thing about the j7+ is that it's easy to maintain. The side brush can be removed and cleaned, and the dirt bag is reusable and only requires to be replaced every three months or so.

The Q5+ uses LIDAR and other sensors, to map the room when it cleans it for the first time. This helps it avoid obstacles. It's also surprisingly gentle around furniture legs and other sharp edges, in contrast to many other vacuums that ram everything in their way like they're in the path of a coming train. It also does a good job of removing carpets with low pile, but it could have issues with thick power cords and other objects that could get stuck in the rollers.
It can be controlled through the app, making it easy to plan cleaning sessions and alter settings. You can also monitor the status of your robot's battery as well as its location, and create a virtual barrier to prevent it from leaving your home. This model doesn't have the drop-sensor that other Roborocks do. It will disable the machine in the event that you drop something onto it. To prevent this from happening, it's recommended to wipe the drop sensor clean periodically with a microfiber cloth or cotton pad.
The Roborock Q5+ has moderately high cost of recurring expenses. The brushrolls must be replaced every six to twelve months or after 300 hours of use. The side brush can also be replaced and is available in two-packs on the manufacturer's site. The Q5+ has large 470-mL trash bin, so it can handle large amounts of dust without having to return to its dock to recharge.
