1. iRobot Roomba Combo j5+

The Roomba Combo j5+ is the most recent 2-in-1 model in iRobot's premium line that comes with mopping and vacuuming capabilities. It's powered by iRobot OS, which helps it get smarter over time and creates a Smart Map of your floors.

It uses vSLAM navigation and can detect obstacles and objects thanks to iRobot's new obstacle avoidance technology. It also can detect carpets of any kind, from low-pile up to thick, and adjust the cleaning mode accordingly.

Like the iRobot Combo j7+, this model comes with Power-Lifting Suction and is designed for both mopping and vacuuming. It comes with a separate bin for dirt, and a mop and vacuuming bin that you fill with water or a liquid cleaner. The robot is able to automatically switch between vacuuming and mopping modes according to the contents of its bins.

The Roomba Combo j5+ uses iRobot’s Enhanced MVac Mode to provide powerful dust suction, which leaves your floors sparkling clean. This mode also makes use of the Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal feature to clean the robot's dirty bin, allowing you to enjoy a hands-free experience. The Combo J5+ features a dedicated power switch that allows you to instantly switch between mopping and Efficient Cleaning and Mopping with Shark's AI Vacuum.

The iRobot Home App makes it easy to use and set up your robot. With a few taps, you can create a customized cleaning plan for your whole home or just one room. You can also view your robot's status and monitor it remotely.

You can make use of your smartphone to begin a cleaning session or even command it with your voice. The iRobot Combo j5+ supports Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant, making it more convenient to pair with your existing smart home devices. It is equipped with pet-safe P.O.O.P technology (Pet owner's official promise), which helps it steer clear of pet mess. This is a great option for pet owners who would like the convenience of robotic vacuums and mops.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION robot vacuum cleaner is a basic model with lots of features. It offers a long-lasting run time and it does a good job cleaning carpeted and bare floors rooms. It also comes with a helpful app that is compatible with Alexa. However, it lacks the ability to map and other advanced controls that are offered by more expensive competitors.

This robot vacuum is outfitted with a powerful motor as well as a multi-surface brush roller to get into the corners and cracks. It will ensure that your home is well cleaned. It also comes with bumper sensors to prevent collisions and a lower cliff sensor that stops the robot from falling down the stairs. It can be programmed to clean a room or set of rooms on a regular basis.

The Shark ION is extremely effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it struggles to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It is also prone to getting stuck under furniture. However it does a good job of avoiding obstacles, and it has a runtime of up to 90 minutes.

The user interface of this robot is simple to use and is among its most appealing features. You can either use the round cleaning button at the top of the unit to initiate cleaning, or open the Shark ION App on your smartphone and issue the command. The app will inform you how much battery remaining and the status of the vacuum. It will also tell you whether the cleaning session is complete or not.

Another feature that many people have liked about this vacuum is its ability to work with Alexa. This vacuum can be turned off and on by a simple voice command. You can also set up cleaning times with the app. The only issue we could find with this vacuum is that it takes longer to charge than the other models that we've reviewed, and the two hand vac attachments aren't able to fit in the base and can get lost pretty easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

This Samsung model is not only an excellent robotic vacuum cleaner, but it also doubles as a camera that can be used to monitor your home. It comes with a lens you can access through your phone and is designed to watch the area around your home. You can also create a schedule of when you want it to patrol the house while you are away. This is perfect if your pets shed or you want to be on the lookout for any criminals.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a top-quality model that comes with a host of features, including object recognition, home monitoring, a self-emptying dirt bin, and five layers of filtering. It's an excellent choice for those who want an expensive model that excels at cleaning hard floors, but aren't afraid of a little dust on carpets.

The advanced obstacle avoidance of this robot is among its most effective features. It makes use of sensors and artificial intelligence to scan the surroundings and detect objects. It can either navigate around the object or mark it as a no go zone on the map. This feature is not available on other robots, which makes the Samsung a safe choice for your home.

On the other hand this model doesn't perform well with spot cleaning. We tested it by scattering rice grains on carpet with a low pile and then sending the robot to clean. The robot was unable to move or pick up the rice grains. This is a disappointing outcome considering that other models did better in the test.

It's also worth noting that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap in comparison to its rivals. Other robotic vacuums offer similar quality for less. Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid, for example, is a top-rated robotic vacuum that has the same features at half the price.

As with other Samsung smart devices, this robot is controlled via the SmartThings app. The setup process is easy using in-app instructions. The app lets you look at the map, create cleaning schedules and suction power settings and zones of no-go areas, and manage other settings. It also shows you the current status of the robot and when the dustbin needs to be emptied.

Its Matrix Clean Navigation, which utilizes a grid-like design to cleanse every corner of your home, can also recognize stairs. It has a remote that makes it simple to adjust settings.

Another plus is that it operates using voice commands, which means you can start and stop the cleaning cycle with an app on your tablet or phone.
