Vacuuming that fits seamlessly into your life. The i7+ learns your home and navigates to where the messes are, right when they happen—so you can effortlessly keep your floors clean. Just say to Google Assistant or Alexa voice assistant, “Tell Roomba to clean under the kitchen table” and consider it done. After each cleaning, the i7+ empties itself into Disposal bags that hold up to 60 days of debris so you can forget about vacuuming for months. Personalized cleaning recommendations and seasonal suggestions help keep floors clean year-round, and 10x the Power-Lifting suction* paired with self-emptying convenience help make life a whole lot easier. *(compared to the Roomba 600 series cleaning system) *(Alexa and all related logos are trademarks of Amazon.com or its affiliates. Google is a trademark of Google LLC).

Wirecutter

With a unique self-emptying dust bin and the rare ability to clean specific rooms on command, this Roomba is the easiest to use of any robot vacuum. But it’s not flawless, and you don’t have to pay such a high price to get a satisfying robot vac.

I bought my Roomba i7+ 2 years ago. A few months back she started giving me an error 16.

 For the exorbitant price I paid for the iRobot, I would expect it to exceed the cleaning performance of my other lower priced robot vacuums. I did not expect it to get stuck constantly, to have as many errors and stoppages, nor did I expect it to go offline as much as it does. I did a lot of research. All the claims were that it had superior cleaning capability

 I have more problems with the iRobot getting stuck and having errors, then with my other robot vacuums. This brand was hyped to be a superior cleaning machine over other brands. That is not the case! I overpaid for a robot vacuum that doesn't work any better than my other robot vacuums. It does not exceed them by a long shot

This is a good robot vacuum, but overpriced. I have two pets a dog and a cat, and I dog sit other pups on the regular. I hate animal hair all over my floors and before I had robot vacuums I would vacuum twice a day. To make life easy, I have three robot vacuums

 I don't have to remember to empty the vacuum after every run. My other robot vacuums must be manually emptied. If I forget to empty the other vacuums they don't clean as well, and when I finally do empty them they're so packed full that the debris falls out when removing the dustbin which causes a mess. Bottom line: is this a good robot vacuum? Yes

Gets stuck under furniture and stops alot with errors, but does a decent job cleaning

My Roomba arrived 11 days ago & so far the i7 is definitely  perfect for me & has worked flawlessly. I wanted to give you the reason I went with it & keep you updated throughout my subscription or answer any question if your thinking about subscribing aswell.

Roomba Select. No Brainer for me.

 After the first segment (battery depleted) it has at least returned the base to the correct location. I still haven't gotten a response from my emails to customer support that started on 12/5/2020. I've had to add some physical barriers in front of several pieces of furniture and a treadmill to keep the roomba from getting underneath because it gets stuck about half of the time (those old college text books finally came in handy for something. I've also used a baseball bat and the old extension tubes for my central vac that I'm hoping I won't need again

 Update 12/22/2020 The replacement arrived on time. The next day I started mapping runs. It took 3 five hour mapping sessions (including charging time) to generate a complete map so I don't consider the mapping to have been any smoother than the first two but at least this one appears to be accurate. I've started a couple of small cleaning jobs and the roomba seems to be performing as requested with one minor annoyance

 Unfortunately, the map will have to be generated again (third time) but he assures me it will be a much smoother process this time. If so, I expect to give it 4 stars. It's not getting 5 stars until I can more easily generate a map and they can allow indefinite (or at least 24 hour) job delays so I can suspend cleaning overnight and have it pick up where it left off the next. So far cleaning has been adequate but could be better; I assume the "better" would come from the S9 with its greater suction

So far cleaning has been adequate but could be better; I assume the "better" would come from the S9 with its greater suction. Update 12/22/2020 The replacement arrived on time. The next day I started mapping runs

Didn't work (initially) in my large house.  Replacement worked.

 You can tell iRobot put a lot of effort into this. So I did the mapping run then followed with a "vacuum everywhere" run, no virtual barriers yet. Not only was the robot able to navigate my entire floor cleaning everything, it didn't get stuck once, even under the kitchen cabinets or dining room chairs, truly impressive. It did need a charge in the middle but at an hour or so to top up, the cleaning process completes in a much more reasonable time period

 Also important to note is that the N8 will want to recharge at 15% battery, so the most you ever really get out of this thing is 85%. The next big problem for me was the design of the auto-empty base. They opted to use a dual port discharge method that sucks from 2 doors in the dust bin simultaneously. I was prompted with a firmware update right away so let that run and waited until the next day to do the initial mapping run

 All the areas the N8 falls short work as intended or better on the i7, despite being lower tech. And this is after I was almost positive I wouldn't buy another Roomba!  i7 Pros: -Competitive price -Premium look and feel -Systematic cleaning pattern -Free in-box extras (1 bag, filter, rotating brush) -Excellent battery and charging performance -Excellent auto-empty base -ZERO issue with long pet hair -Intuitive and granular control via the app (clean zones, no go zones, defined rooms that can be scheduled) -Smart Maps works really well  i7 Cons: -Old school vSLAM bump sensor tech that will mar the more stuff it bumps into -RCON sensor sits in harms way atop the bumper -Single rotating brush could be improved -Room lighting is required, this thing doesn't do well in the dark -No variable speed motor = higher noise, about the same as my 960

 The robot functions very well in general and is a very good vacuum, all told. The downsides that I experienced, however, were enough for me to return it. The key cons here are battery life, recharge time, the auto-empty base and getting stuck. Your first step with the N8 is the initial mapping of your floorplan which must be completed fully before you can do anything, I mean anything

The best of the best!

 I love the fact that it notifies you each time a job is completed. No more guessing what was cleaned and what wasn't. In my opinion the Roomba I7+ is almost there but needs some adjustments. For the money spent on it I think it would be worth it but for the noise it makes while cleaning

  1. It is very loud when cleaning. As both my wife and I work from home I quickly learned that it can not be run during the day because it is just too loud and distracting. I also found that I couldn't run it in the evenings as it made TV watching unbearable

 As both my wife and I work from home I quickly learned that it can not be run during the day because it is just too loud and distracting. I also found that I couldn't run it in the evenings as it made TV watching unbearable. That left me with running it during the night. I have to close my bedroom door at night so it won't wake us

 I don't believe it picks up as well as my other one because when I compare what I use to clean out of the other ones dustbin with what I see in the bag of the Roomba it just doesn't seem as much. Plus I know our socks are picking up more dog hair than in the past because I see it on our couches and ottomans now. I can tell it does just as well with hair on tile as my old one but not so well on carpet or rugs.  4

30 day review

I read many, many reviews before I invested in this item, as it was a lot of money to spend, and sometimes a couple of bad reviews make you not want to purchase something. I finally decided to take a chance and purchase the vacuum, and I am glad I did. I’ve had it for a week now, and it has mapped all of the areas in my house I want it to clean. We have 4 children, and I can never count on their rooms being picked up enough to send this in there

 I am extremely happy with it. It is helping me tremendously keeping the house picked up. We have 3 cats and 1 dog who constantly sheds. My biggest concern with these robot vacuums was vacuuming my living room and then it needing me to empty it before it would continue

 When it empties it sounds like a mini jet engine starting up. Probably no louder than your average vacuum, but that is something to consider if you plan on only running it overnight. I hope we don’t experience any issues, but if we do, I did purchase the 3 year extended warranty on Amazon. It was by far the best deal when I compared other retailer’s warranties, so for the next 4 years I have zero worries if it does breakdown

 I love the mapping feature and it’s ease of use. It mapped my laundry room and dining room as one area. My dining area is always picked up, my laundry room is not. It was very simple to add a divider on the map to make that one area, two areas, and I can tell it to stay out of the laundry room when I know there’s a mountain of laundry on the floor

Worth the cost!

iRobot Roomba i7+ Review: What to Know Before You Buy

RTINGS

The best robot vacuum cleaner in the budget category that we've tested is the Wyze Robot Vacuum. This relatively affordable vacuum features a LIDAR mapping system, a rarity for models in this price bracket. It allows the vacuum to store a permanent map of its coverage area, which you can access via its companion app to set up virtual boundary lines that the vacuum won't cross or direct it to clean a specific room in your home.

This vacuum also does a good job of maneuvering its way around obstacles and is small enough to clean under tables and chairs. It delivers exceptional performance on flat, even surfaces like hardwood or tile floors, easily cleaning bulky and small debris. It's also remarkably effective when dealing with pet hair on a wide variety of surfaces, including low and high-pile carpets and rugs. It's also fairly quiet and has an onboard HEPA filter, helping to limit the spread of fine allergens as it cleans.

Unfortunately, this vacuum struggles with cleaning fine and large debris from low-pile carpets. Unlike the Roborock E4, there's no surface detection system to let it automatically increase its suction power on different surfaces, so you need to choose this setting manually. Still, its reasonably affordable price point and relatively advanced mapping and navigation system make it a great option for hassle-free cleaning.

The best budget robot vacuum for hardwood floors we've tested is the Wyze Robot Vacuum. This robot vacuum delivers superb performance on bare floors, easily cleaning pet hair as well as small and bulky debris. It does a decent job cleaning messes on the occasional high-pile rug, though it may need to make an extra pass to fully clean very fine material.

This vacuum has a fairly wide range of automation features. Its LIDAR mapping system generates a map of its coverage area, which you can then access through its companion app to set up virtual boundary lines or schedule cleaning sessions for specific rooms. It also maneuvers itself around obstacles quite well. The vacuum itself feels well-built and has an allergen-trapping HEPA filter.

Unfortunately, this vacuum has many parts that need regular cleaning or replacing, so recurring costs can add up over time. Otherwise, its strong performance, impressive build quality, and fairly advanced automation capabilities make it one of the best budget robot vacuums we've tested.

If you're looking for an affordable robot vacuum that offers more advanced automation capabilities than most other comparably-priced alternatives, consider the Wyze Robot Vacuum. While it's a little more expensive than most other robot vacuums on this list, it features an advanced LIDAR mapping system that lets it store a permanent map of its coverage area, so you can set up virtual no-go zones the vacuum won't enter or direct it to clean a specific room within your home. It also does a good job of maneuvering itself around obstacles like tables or chairs and cleans in an organized pattern of straight lines. It delivers exceptional performance on bare floors and easily clears away pet hair on most surfaces too. It can't automatically adjust its suction power to different surfaces and has a tiny dirt compartment that needs regular emptying.

If both of those aspects are important to you when choosing a robot vacuum, you could also consider the Roborock S4 Max. While it's even pricier than the Wyze, you can sometimes find it on sale for under $300. It also does a slightly better job of maneuvering itself. It does have a longer battery life too, but it takes considerably longer to recharge.

Wyze is a relative newcomer to the vacuum space. The US-based company was founded in 2017 and got their start with a wide range of smart home products, like locks, lights, and cameras. They currently manufacture a trio of vacuums, each occupying a distinct market niche. While they're different in terms of intended usage and design, all three offer a surprisingly dense feature set of a relatively affordable price point, including HEPA filtration, relatively lengthy runtimes, and strong performance on most surfaces.

The best Wyze vacuum that we've tested is the Wyze Robot Vacuum. Its LIDAR sensor isn't especially common for robot vacuums at this price point and enables it to map out its coverage area in precise detail, even in minimal ambient light. It stores a permanent map of your home, and you can use its companion app to set up virtual boundary lines the vacuum won't cross or schedule cleaning sessions for specific rooms. If you need superior deep-cleaning performance, the Wyze Cordless Vacuum is a cordless stick model that delivers strong performance at a budget-friendly price. However, it's somewhat fragile in terms of build quality. If you only need a cordless vacuum for spot-cleaning, the Wyze Handheld Vacuum is a highly compact option with a relatively long battery life, a wide assortment of attachments, and an onboard HEPA filter.

If you don't mind giving up the hazard avoidance capability found on the Roborock S7 MaxV and Ecovacs DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI and don't need a mopping feature, the Wyze Robot Vacuum is worth a look. It delivers superb performance on bare floors, easily cleaning pet hair and small and bulky debris. Its LIDAR mapping system generates a map of its coverage area, which you can access through its companion app to set up virtual boundary lines or schedule cleaning sessions for specific rooms. It also maneuvers itself around obstacles quite well. The vacuum itself feels well-built and has an allergen-trapping HEPA filter.

Unfortunately, this vacuum has a somewhat small dirt compartment that needs emptying pretty often, even by the standards of other robot vacuums. If that's an issue, you could also consider the Roborock E4, which also delivers similarly fantastic performance on flat, even surfaces like hardwood floors. That said, unlike the Wyze, the Roborock doesn't have a LIDAR mapping system that would store a permanent map of its coverage area, meaning you can't set up virtual boundary markers or schedule cleaning sessions for specific areas.

If you aren't overly concerned about deep-cleaning performance and want a hands-off way to keep your apartment's floors clean, check out the Wyze Robot Vacuum. It doesn't do as well on rugs or carpets as something like the Samsung Jet 60 Pet, but since you can schedule it to clean every day, there'll be fewer major messes to worry about. It features a LIDAR mapping system, which is rare for a model at this price point, and it allows it to navigate around obstacles even within a cluttered environment like a small apartment. Better still, it can do so without a strong source of ambient light, so you can let it run while you're out and about. Performance on bare floors is fantastic, though the vacuum does have a harder time dealing with debris on carpeted surfaces.

Its companion app is pretty easy to use and lets you set up virtual boundary markers, schedule cleaning sessions in advance, or change its suction power level. It has an onboard HEPA filter, which is somewhat helpful in sealing in fine particles, making it a solid option if you have a heavily-shedding pet.

If you're looking for a robot vacuum for just under $300, it's hard to go wrong with the Wyze Robot Vacuum. While it's a little more expensive than most other robot vacuums on this list, it's also the only one to feature an advanced LIDAR mapping system. It allows for quick and precise room mapping, even in the dark. Unlike the cheaper Roborock E4, you can set up virtual boundary lines and schedule cleaning sessions for specific rooms using the coverage map. It also does a good job of maneuvering itself around obstacles like tables or chairs and cleans in an organized pattern of straight lines.

It delivers exceptional performance on bare floors and easily clears away pet hair on most surfaces. Unfortunately, one feature that it's missing compared to the Roborock is the latter's self-adjusting suction power feature, so you'll need to adjust this setting manually on some surfaces. Its dirt compartment is also tiny and needs regular emptying.

 There are numerous chat rooms that have had similar responses. I contacted the Mfg and they apologize but said they don't know why this happens and they will not compensate for repairs. The other issues is they do not support their own replacement parts.
