The latest updated list of robot vacuums we recommend: https://www.consumeranalysis.com/guid...

In this video we review the iRobot Roomba j7 and j7+. The j7+ comes with a self-empty dust bin and a Clean Base (self empty dock) while the j7 does not. Otherwise, the two robots are identical and so our review applies to both vacuums.

In the review we analyze the j7's carpet (general and deep cleaning), hard floor, edge, and hair (human and pet) pickup performance. We also discuss the robot's raw performance (CFM and suction), navigation and coverage, obstacle detection, battery life, bin size, and noise output.

The j7 does have some shortcomings but overall it's a very good robot vacuum. It's one of few robot vacuums on the market that can self empty and detect and avoid small obstacles.
