Pros and cons

According to our robot vacuum expert

• Thanks to PrecisionVision navigation, the robot recognizes objects, so it doesn't drive over cables or shoes that are lying around.
• If you place the mopping module on the robot vacuum, it cleans your floor dry and wet in one go.
• Via the iRobot Home app, you can set a cleaning routine, so you can adjust it according to your preferences.
• The robot doesn't have an automatic emptying station, so you need to empty the dust cup yourself when it's full.

Our expert review

Cleaning helper who works thoroughly

• Smart robot with object recognition
• App is extensive and easy to use
• Automatic emptying station
• Separate mop attachment

The iRobot Roomba Combo j5+ is a smart robot vacuum cleaner that cleans floors conveniently. The automatic emptying station makes it even easier for you.

Simple installation
When I unpack the robot, I immediately see a card with installation instructions. Handy, because this way I can be sure that I place the robot vacuum cleaner correctly. I also immediately download the iRobot Home app. The app is easy to use and very clear. I receive step-by-step instructions and the robot starts its first round. The app is very complete and ensures that I don't actually have to think.

Smart techniques
The robot drives a systematic route through my house. I see that he makes his path in straight lines, so he doesn't miss a piece easily. Handy, because it cleans my entire floor thoroughly. If the robot encounters a shoe or cable, it recognizes it with its camera. This allows him to avoid items lying around. This saves me effort, because I don't have to clear the entire floor before the robot starts. This robot even recognizes your pet's feces. I don't have a pet myself, so (fortunately) I didn't have to test this. In the app I also set exactly how the robot cleans my house. Great, because this way I can really adapt the robot to my wishes. This way I indicate where the robot is not allowed to go and which room deserves extra attention.

Automatic emptying station
When the robot has finished its round, it automatically drives back to the base station. Here the robot also immediately empties its built-in dust container. Even if the dust container is full during a cleaning routine, the robot moves back briefly. Very handy, because I don't have to pay attention to this myself. I only replace the dust bag in the emptying station when it is full.

Mopping function
I also use the robot with a mopping function. To do this I first have to install the mop attachment. I easily fill the water reservoir under the tap. The robot now wets the mop and pulls it over the floor while vacuuming. This way it removes even more dust from the floor. I now have to set a no-go zone for my carpet via the app. Otherwise the robot will drive over it with the wet mop. I find this less useful.

Handy household help

• Clean rooms one by one thoroughly
• Mops well
• Easy to install
• The robot needs light, so you cannot turn it on at night.

I was able to test the robot vacuum cleaner for 2 weeks and the installation went without any problems, everything was clearly stated in the user manual, also the connection with the app went without any problems and this was done in no time. The app is very easy to use, which makes the robot vacuum cleaner very easy to use and set up. In the app you can set all kinds of things, such as no-mop zone and avoid zones. If the robot vacuum cleaner detected an obstacle, it took a picture of it and I saw it in the app, in this picture the object in question was also clearly marked, so it was clear which object it was. The robot vacuum cleaner also detects mats itself, I did not have to indicate this myself, which was very easy. It is a very compact size and looks sleek and neat. However, if I indicate in the app that the entire house needs to be cleaned, it skips parts/areas somewhere during each cleaning round, which was a downside. Mopping goes very well, but it does skip a part here too. When I select individual rooms in the app, it neatly cleans the entire requested room and does not skip anything. Furthermore, I found that the device produces quite a bit of noise while vacuuming, my expectation was that this would be less.

Good cleaning help.

• Easy operation
• Recognizes objects well
• He creates routines for easier cleaning
• Noisy

I was allowed to test the robot vacuum cleaner. The installation was very clear and easy. In the app you can set everything to your own preference, such as no-mop zone and avoid zones. If the robot vacuum cleaner detects an obstacle, it takes a photo and shows it in the app. You can then indicate whether it is a temporary or a permanent obstacle. It is a very compact size and looks sleek and neat. Mopping goes very well. When I select spaces separately in the app, it neatly cleans the entire requested space and does not skip anything. Furthermore, I found that the device produces quite a bit of noise while vacuuming, my expectation was that this would be less.
