It makes use of AI to identify objects such as charging cords and shoes. It's also the first to automatically send you a photo of the object it comes across so you can tell it to avoid it in the future.
The Combo J7+ is the best robot mop we've ever tested. It removes dirt and spills quickly and leaves no trace of it was there. It's simple to control via the iRobot Home app, which allows you to schedule cleaning and create Keep Out Zones to make sure it doesn't sweep areas you do not want it to. It's compatible with Alexa or Google Assistant so you can start and stop it with a voice.
Its design is also superior to the rest with a sleek top piece that looks more like a toy robotic than a loud, obnoxious one. Clean Base's Automatic Dirt removal System is also self-emptying which can cut down on cleaning time.
In our tests, we found that the j7+ was quick to eliminated dirt, dust and hair from pets. The counter-rotating rubber brushes kept the debris in one location rather than sending it scattering across the floor. It was able capture sand, small gravel and even a bit of grit. Most robots could not accomplish this feat. It did this without getting caught in our pet's hair.

While the iRobot Home app is very user-friendly, we've found it to be less reliable than other apps that use robotic cleaners. It can take some time to download updates, and at times it's hard to determine whether the update is working until you've seen it in action.

The Q5+ is noticeable soft around obstacles like tables and walls which makes it an excellent option for homes with a lot of furniture. It's also extremely thorough in cleaning up dust bunnies, which is a place where cheaper robot vacuums can really fail. The Q5+'s navigation is top-quality, with a few misses along walls and in corners.

The main reason to buy the station is that it can automate many tasks, functions and chores that other robots have to leave to you. It can store clean and dirty water and also electrolyze and warm the water. Most other robovacs will require this.
Its vacuuming capabilities are also impressive. It's one of the few robot vacuums I've tested that does an excellent job of picking up debris on plain floors, and is not as loud as the more expensive Roomba 980 or iRobot 900 series.
The Freo X Ultra is not without faults, particularly in the area of navigation. Its LiDAR sensors and laser sensors aren't as reliable and reliable as other robotvacs. This means it is prone to getting stuck or confused in certain areas or rooms of the house. It's also not able to climb stairs as well as other competitors and doesn't come with a docking station to create a clean zone for plush carpets.

It is also possible to connect the G30 to Amazon Alexa or Google Home to do unscheduled cleaning with voice commands.
The way the G30 cleans is what differentiates it from its competitors. It uses an integrated map to make an image of the immovable items in its path. It can remember the items it has cleaned and where it cannot access. It then returns to the base to recharge and continues cleaning the area it left.
The sleek G30 isn't without faults, though. The iRobot Roomba is more durable and has lower monthly costs. It charges faster, has a similar battery life, and is more effective on bare carpet or floors with low pile. It has a bigger dust bin that does not require the same amount of emptying. It also has boundary strips that keep it from certain areas. The G30 is cheaper and easier to maintain. Its smaller size means that it doesn't have to be emptied as often and it's less trouble with bulky materials like cereal.
