Second Chance iRobot Roomba J7+

The iRobot J7+ was the umpteenth robot vacuum cleaner that iRobot allowed me to test and I was looking forward to it. My first impression was due to the sleek design and the fact that it empties its dust container automatically, so it quickly became good.

It is clear that the J7+ is a lot smarter than the older models. Where I sometimes lost a cord with its predecessor, which I subsequently found in the brush, the J7+ cleverly navigates past obstacles such as cords and Lego blocks. He seems to recognize these, as well as pet feces. And believe me, driving through that is no fun. That's why iRobot has developed the P.O.O.P. develops technology that allows the robot vacuum cleaner to recognize and avoid turds. A development especially for pet owners.

Because the robot gets to know my house better and better, it gets a little better every day, as we say at Coolblue. The more often I put him to work, the smarter he gets. And while most robot vacuums get lost if you run them at night without leaving a light on, this one has no problem with it. The LED lighting is reminiscent of a flashlight. Not only does this look cool, but it really has a function. As a result, it has less trouble vacuuming dark spaces, so you can also put it to work at night.

Normally I set a cleaning schedule so that the robot works fully automatically. However, this model has another cool feature. By sharing my location in the iRobot app, I can tell the J7+ to get to work as soon as I walk out the door in the morning. That way I'm guaranteed to come home to a clean house. If you want more control over the times when the robot vacuums, you can also simply set a cleaning schedule for the whole week. In addition, the iRobot Home App offers the ability to select areas to avoid and direct it to specific rooms such as the kitchen.

As I already hinted, I am a big fan of the automatic emptying station. The robot also takes the emptying of its dust container off your hands. In addition to saving the necessary time and effort, it is also good for the suction power and lifespan of the robot itself. I am never too late to empty the dust container.

According to experts, this vacuum cleaner robot is one of the best of the moment. I can attest to this. He works well, quickly and efficiently. Pricey, but then you also get the latest and smartest technology. Keep in mind that this vacuum cleaner robot is self-learning. He'll seem clumsy for the first few rounds, but as he's vacuumed more often, and learned more, you'll notice that you've got a smart vacuuming robot. In addition, future updates will make the vacuum cleaner robot even better.

The robot vacuum cleaner makes noise, but it's also not as loud as a traditional vacuum cleaner (except when emptying the bin, it's just as loud as a traditional vacuum cleaner, but it only takes a few seconds).
