Cleaning robots are getting smarter and are standing up for your dust bunnies.
Robot Vacuum Cleaners: Everything You Need to Know BEFORE You Buy
The latest iRobot robot vacuums feature a new operating system and more power, while offering deeper floor cleaning capabilities. It’s an example of how robots are becoming more useful for everyday tasks.
“While initial consumer sentiment toward robot vacuums was more of skeptical curiosity, that sentiment has changed,” Warren Fernandez, director of floor care at iRobot, told Lifewire in an email interview. “Newer robot vacuums offer more powerful, effective dirt-picking performance than previous-generation robot vacuums.”
The Roomba Combo j9+ features a dock that automatically empties dirt and refills the robot’s solution reservoir. The company also introduced its new operating system, iRobot OS 7.0, which takes cleaning automation to the next level with features like Dirt Detective and SmartScrub.
