Yeah, read this.
This will clean your floors 90% of the time, everytime. This robot vacuum works fantastic. The app is easy to use and interface with and gives you lots of information. It maps your house very thoroughly and gives you information on how much dirt is in whatever location. This is like the terminator of robot vacuums. Yes of courses we all know you still have to do some slight cleaning by yourselves because the robot cannot get into tight corners and what not but I would say that it does a very thorough job. Now there are different settings on it like the suction, so it is noticeably quieter when you have it set the lower suction setting, but the higher suction setting actually vacuums better. But then at the same time sacrificing battery life. I prefer to use the higher setting because the robot will go back home and recharge and the cleaning once it’s charged and keep doing that until it’s finished with the entire floor of your house. This works fabulous especially if you have pets. This model is designed for that. So you can say “hasta la vista” to dirt. The dog is occasionally mildly amused by it, and the cat completely ignores it. I was kind of hoping the cat would ride around on it like a speeder on Endor, but he seems to consider it more of an irrelevant nuisance. I highly suggest this product and it works great. Very satisfied.

I bought the j9+ based on all the reviews I was able to find and also that the previous s9 model was no longer available. The setup was super easy as long as one is comfortable using your phone’s app to handle all the tasks. The initial mapping was very cool to watch. If you’re a tech nerd, you’ll love trying to figure out how the algorithms are working to navigate the furniture, walls, entry ways, etc. In about 40 minutes R2D2 mapped out my first floor very accurately and was able to work it’s way around the jungle of chair legs at the dining room table. It took a while, but it managed!After the initial mapping run, it went right back to it’s base and started charging automatically. Next was the actual vacuum run, but before that we decided to put a “no fly zone” around the Christmas tree and blanket around it. The app easily let me set up a 5×4 square which I placed in the map of the house – which was very cool, and pressed the “Vacuum Everything” button on my app. It was remarkable how R2D2 started in the room with the most dog hair and then proceeded to follow it’s map throughout the house. The suction on the wood floors was excellent, and I was impressed when it rolled over the few throw rungs we have, I could hear it kick into a higher gear because it recognized the carpet. Our black lab leaves plenty of hair around on our light colored floors which made it easier to see that R2D2 was doing a great job.During the first mapping, I kept all the bedroom doors closed off the main hall. While it did the first vacuum I forgot the master bedroom door was open. It noticed the new opening, but did not enter the room. I took this as a new mapping run I would need to perform, but I was amazed when it completed the entire house, paused in the living room for about 10 seconds, and then proceeded back to the new opening it discovered previously. It recalled it found a new opening but did not disrupts it’s current task – it finished and then returned back.We’ve only run it two times, but already we discovered that it remembered the master badroom, added it to the routine and completed the room before returning back to base. It also updated the map in the app and asked me about the new room and what to name it. I was also able to place the new boundaries for the entrance to the bedroom and master bath (which it also found while exploring).The app also shows pictures of obstacles R2D2 came in contact with during it’s journey. A wire under the curio cabinet was captured in a crystal clear picture taken by R2D2 and sent to the app for me to decide whether this should be considered a permanent obstacle, or something which I could remove and it could continue working in this space next time. I simply moved the wire closer to the wall, let the app know it was taken care of, and we’ll see how R2 does with it next time.I love this robot… I am super impressed by the effectiveness of the vacuum, the ease of the app, and how simple it was to set up. I have seen other reviews about noise, and speed, but it’s no where near as loud as our Shark standup (which is a beast) and regarding the time, I set and forget. So far I have not had to come to it’s rescue, but we also don’t have a lot of things laying around on the floor which I guess would complicate things. For about 500 sq feet, the app tells me it’s taking 90 minutes. No where close to fast, but I am writing this review while R2 is taking care of the floors!Very happy and I’ll come back in a few months with an update….

I got an iRobot Roomba J9 vacuum for the upstairs and an Dreame L10s Robot Vacuum/ mopper for the downstairs at the same time. These are comprable square footage areas, the downstaris has a tiled kithen, the rest mostly carpet and some hardwood, ergo i got a mopping/vacuum combo L10s The upstars is mosy carpet so I got vacuum only. The J9 is inferior in every way, and I mean every way. The J9 is more difficult to empty the waste bin, which by the way is teeny weeny comparatively. The J9 programming just sucks, it mapped a hallway as 3 separate rooms. It doesn’t finish any room before going to another room, then goes back, really? It gets confused and seemily lost, or it gets stuck frequently. I have 2 rooms with almost no furniture in them upstairs, and the J9 has gotten stuck in one of them twice, and i would say lost in it once. It takes longer to charge and can’t finish the whole upstairs before the battery craps out. I don’t believe it goes back to where it left off, I am not sure since it has yet (after 3 days) to actually completely vacuum the upstairs. The L10s finished all the downstairs easlily, and more thoroughly. The J9 wont allow you to skip ahead to where it left off. You can skip ahead once only. The phone app for the J9 is far inferior to the L10s, the J9 is outclassed completely, it’s much more complicated, and far less useful. Heck the Roomba doesnt even come with an instruction manual. I would not buy a Roomba again I’m very disapointed with it, and I would not recommend it. I would by another Dreame product easily.

Aspiration is pretty strong. Would recommand If you have animals and long hair. Battery last about 2h with a full charge. The robot can clean my condo (4 1/2) is an hour.

It climbs room transitions with ease, eg from the carpeted rooms to the tiled bathrooms.The Roomba neatly works around chair legs and kitty water dishes without bumping anything. No spilled water.Regular maintenance is simple and fast. After a few vacuum runs I had to remove the side brush to untangle a cat toy with a long yarn tail. I also checked for trapped carpet fibers in the spinning brushes and found almost none.I really love the app. I have been able to create daily cleaning schedules with times set to avoid our activity (upstairs gets vacuumed while we’re making breakfast). I have it set to vacuum rooms in an order that is least likely to interfere with us even if we return upstairs sooner than usual. I added Clean Zones and a couple of Stay Away zones and now I can just let it do its thing.No regrets on this purchase.

This is a positive feature.The J9+ struggles at emptying its bin automatically and regularly needs to do it more than once.The J9+ keeps losing connectivity with it’s base station and the iRobot cloud.I wish I could return the product.

Only a couple of hiccups so far, trivial stuff. I have pets and the mess was constant. But not anymore. I always have my bare feet in the house and the difference is very obvious. I set this thing away every day and then once a week before I run out to town, I lift all the moveable things like chairs, ottoman, slippers and let it do its thing. Fabulous. Yes. It is loud when it empties itself, but it only does this for seconds and the end of its routine. The App is good too. Lets you customize the suction strength and how many passes etc. I like it. Once the drop the price again I will buy another one to replace my old roomba downstairs. I am almost tempted to buy the vacuum mop combo to give it a try.

The Roomba j9 learned its way around the house initially and still seems to be getting smarter with every run. It’s been vacuuming the house every morning and the floors appear to be cleaner than ever before. It gets to places the Dyson never could and even outperforms IMO. Returns to the base in another room when needed to empty its bin and again when the job is done; all without any intervention on our part.My cat initially was terrified of the Roomba (she’s scared of her own shadow anyway) but her terror seems to be evolving into cautious curiosity now. Eventually I expect they’ll be fast friends.Thinking of buying another eventually to use on the second floor.
