Review: So far, exceptional bot & very happy with the cleaning job its doing - I'll just start with acknowledging that the Roomba app is worlds better than the Shark app on my previous vacuum. There's some quality of life features I'm getting used to fast such as the isometric 3d view & the ability to order cleaning around specific furniture on the map rather than the entire room. The timeline that shows you everything it's done for the run & everything it plans to do is useful info. I have a huge 2-level house with lots of tile & cheap carpet, plus a few big carpets. I was looking specifically for something that could mop the kitchen multiple times a day, had heated mop wash AND heated dry, & had decent obstacle handling. I'm coming from a Shark XL (vacuum only, 90 day dock capacity, suspension like an offroading 4x4 to make up for the sensing suite). I liked the Shark, but there's just no comparison whatsoever to the 705X. For starters, the obstacle detection / handling / avoidance that's camera based on this one is waaay more reliable than the prior LIDAR-only bot I had. Comparatively the 705X has much more limited suspension & is heavy, but the beefy suspension isn't needed because it's powerful/large enough to climb carpet ledges & the obstacle avoidance keeps it from climbing stuff it shouldn't like TV tray bases. Having an automated mop that gets hot-cleaned has utterly demolished the house fly population in my house & left my tile floors with a finish cleaner than I've seen them even running my hand vacmop. The first-pass dirty water tank was totally disgusting (as it should be) & clearly removed a lot of nasty stuff from my house. Cons: The only real con I've identified so far is it's LOUD. I kind of expected that though, since this is the "more suction" model, and more suction usually means more powerful motors/fans; and thus more noise. I may open up the dock to add some noise reduction foam eventually; that's a small price to pay for how good a job this does as both a vacuum and a mop. We will see how well it holds up over time. desertcart encourages reviews to talk about appearance. I don't care as much about that in a droid but I will say the "brown woodpanel" pictured on the dock is much closer to a very dark gray than a brown. My bot gets its own private little corner between a short wall & a couch though, so I don't really care what the dock looks like. This also brings up an important point: the little wall the dock is behind often trips up mapping software on bots, but the 705X hasn't had a problem finding its dock even once. The mapping software is simply excellent. The one gripe I'd have with the mapping software is simply that I can't set mop or keepout zones close to the dock even if they're on the other side of a wall (& thus very far from the dock in terms of bot drive time). I have a big rug with tassles, which is a torture test for vacuums; so far it's only been stuck once in a week or 2 of operation (which is way better than prior vacs that had to have a keepout zone over that entire rug. We'll see how it holds up over the next couple years, but I'd say, as of this bot, iRobot is back to being good.
Review: Awesome Roomba for Pet Owners - This Roomba is well worth the money. We have used a Roomba off and on for over ten years. Before the i7 series I can admit I pretty much liked it for the novelty of the product more than the functionality of it. When I was a bachelor in a small apartment, its haphazard bouncing around was more than adequate. When we had a bigger condo and toddlers running around the older roomba's were ineffective. Now that we have two kids almost pre-teen and two huskies - we needed some more help. In comes the i7. We recently put in dark wood floors and while we love the look - everything shows. A crumb can be viewed from across the house and our huskies are white and black so any dropped hair is easily visible. We do sweep and mop regularly to collect the bulk of the stuff in the usual places (such as crumbs in the kitchen or dining room) but there is nothing quite like waking up to a clean floor. We got the i7 because of the mapping features, but it is so much more. Pros: - Mapping - We will start with why we bought this. The i7 Roomba does not simply bounce around like those before it. This roomba has a sensor that will detect if its about to collide with an object and then slows down to slightly bump the object and begins to map where the object is in a room. After two runs (for us) the Roomba had fully mapped the first floor (about 1000sq ft). Once mapped we can place room dividers, name the rooms, and even mark out "no go" zones to keep it away from either the dog's water bowl or some cables we don't want it to go near. This feature works exceptionally well. - The sensor - as mentioned above we have kids and dogs. This means that no matter how much we pick up the floor, one of the creatures in this house is going to come behind us and put any number of things out in the middle of the floor where it doesn't belong. The i7 Roomba can identify when it is approaching an object and will slow down to give it a gentle nudge. More often than not in our house its a sleeping husky. One of them politely moves for the Roomba to do its job. The other one simply lays there stubbornly and we end up with a husky sized outline of clean/not clean. It is actually as humorous as it sounds. - The cleaning "bristles" - I was pretty sure that having wood floors would mean we could never have a Roomba again. We actually waited more than a year before we even tried looking. The newer generation has a rubber roller it uses to move dirt to the middle of its path and then collect as it goes over. This system is great and ensures the floor doesn't get damaged. - The cleaning base - If you are looking at this i7+ it should come with a cleaning station. This is essentially the power dock with a dust bag in it for collection. Having Huskies, this thing is a must. If for some reason we are lazy and don't do a quick sweep before sending the Roomba on its way or if there was an area the kids inevitably "forgot" to do as part of their chores - the roomba will detect that it is full, return to its base, drop off its bin, and return to the place that it left off. If the battery is low, it will take a break, send your app a push message that it needs to juice up for a minute and will resume when its ready. Cons: - Noise - To be fair - its a vacuum. I am not really sure what some people expect here. I typically turn it on while I am doing the dishes or when we go to bed. It doesn't keep us up, but it would probably be a bit annoying to watch a tv show in the same room as it. - Can get stuck - Its a robot and it does what it can. It is 1000% better than previous versions but we do have a rocking chair that it occasionally catches itself on. By occasionally I mean maybe 3-4 times since we bought it and we have used it nightly. - Clean Base Noise - This is more of a warning than a con, so just be aware. When the Roomba is emptying the dust bin you have one vacuum cleaning another vacuum. There is a very loud suction noise for about 15 seconds and then its done. Imagine like a car wash vacuum starting up and that is the noise. Unavoidable and not a defect by any means but surprising if you aren't expecting it. The last part is the i7 over the newer s9 series. When we purchased the i7 the s9 had already been out for some time. I had set out to get the latest and greatest, but the product reviews pretty much everywhere for the s9 were spotty. Everything from them getting stuck/lost, to not holding a battery, to needing taken apart during customer service calls. Those items might be fixed by now (Sept 2020), they can do firmware updates to the machines. We picked the i7 because we knew it would work straight out of the box and it was cheaper due to the release of the s9. There were also no real compelling features to the s9 upgrade over the i7 aside from the fact it can get into a 90 degree angle with ease, but so can the i7 using its side brush. At the end of the day - I recommend the i7 over the s9, but that could change down the road.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What happens if my cat throws up and I’m not home when it runs?  Does it avoid it or do I come home to a big mess?**
A: You will have a huge mess on your hands! It happened to me with dog diarrhea. Amanda (robot) smeared it all over. I had to take her completely apart. Every screw that I could get to came out. I washed and dried every removable part. It took hours, but once reassembled she was good to go and I NEVER had her vacuum again when I was not home!

**Q: can the dumping base be purchased separately at a later time?**
A: Yes. I bought an i7 with a default charging base. If you want to buy the i7 with the dumping base as one package, you'll save yourself $50 in the long run.

**Q: How does it do with long dog hair?**
A: Works very well, BUT you have to remove and check/clean the brushes more often because the long hairs wrap around the ends of the brushes making large, thick rings that are hidden from superficial examination. I didn't have any problems even before discovering this, but I'm wondering how much mechanical stress was on the machine.

**Q: Besides emptying itself, what are the added features or actual benefits, of buying the Roomba i7+ over the Roomba 980?**
A: I have both. The i7+ learns your floorplan and then the app lets you define areas or rooms - very nice if you have a lot of square footage. You can schedule the rooms to be cleaned at different times. You don't have to use the virtual wall devices that are required to keep the 980 contained. The i7+ is also much quieter than the 980.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The iRobot I7+; the Good and Bad
*by P***3 on November 6, 2020*

Well, it's been about 18 months since I bought the iRobot i7+ and so far things are going fine; no problems with it so far. I did do a good cleaning recently and, after looking at instructions on various YouTube site I found how easy it was to clean around wheels, clean single wheel in front of iRobot, to remove strings etc. I started off without researching and was struggling but after finding out how to really do the job it was a piece of cake. The iRobot designers really too all this cleaning into consideration when designing the product. So far, maintains 5 star rating. The following is a summary of my experience with my new iRobot I7+ I bought this vacuum to replace my Neato Connected which was very good at cleaning but left a lot as far as reliability; in less than 5 years I had to have it repaired 3 times at a cost of almost $400. This for a relatively expensive robot. When the battery failed ($70.00) and the robot started not knowing where it was I decided enough is enough. When I got the iRobot I followed installation instructions which were pretty straight forward, updated the software (again very easy), and then waited for it to fully charge. I then sent it out to clean my whole house (about 2200 sq ft). It ran for about a hour and then went back to base to recharge. I started up after charging and ran for another 10 minutes when it stopped with error message saying problem with dust bin on robot (not dustbin in base). One of nice things is that error message is displayed in iPhone app which also has a "Learn more" button which brings you to a little tutorial on how to resolve the problem. Followed instructions and cleaned the dust bin in the robot. Kind of a nice feature. Turned it back on and 5 minutes later same message. Did this several times and was about to just send it back but decided to give YouTube a try. Entered message text and got to video showing same stuff as Learn More but also said to take out the two brushes and clear anything there. Sure enough, there was a paper clip there which was stopping the brushes. Cleared the paper clip and it's been fine. Fault was with Learn More. With what appears to be a very user friendly function, I expected that anything there would tell me about ALL sources and resolutions regarding the problem so this was just an incomplete implementation of the facility. Sent the iRobot to to clean my whole house a 3-4 times and it was still not able to put together a full view of the house so that I could use the map to tell it t clean just one area. After looking around a while a found an option in the iPhone app that says "Just go out an map the house without doing any actual cleaning" which allows the whole house to be mapped on one charge. Once that was completed I was able to see my house map and label rooms, adjust walls, etc. Once I had my house mapped I was able to: 1) name rooms 2) adjust walls between open rooms 3) create "cleaning areas" consisting of one or more rooms. Really a nice feature worth the upgrade from I3 to I7. Just sent the robot out to clean just my bedroom and it started fine, went directly to bedroom, cleaned whole room, and then returned to base and emptied it's dust bin -- just as expected. Oher things to watch out for: 1) Robot picked up small piece of paper (1.5"x2") and sucked it into it's bin. But when it went to base to be emptied the paper blocked the opening in robot which allows debris to be drawn into base. Robot threw another message and I was able to see the problem. Removed paper and all OK. 2) Regarding self-emptying...works good but VERY VERY load for 15-30 seconds while debris from robot into base is being processed. Would not recommend running this during the night; the noise will surely wake you up. 3) Dust bin in robot is very small compared to my previous Neato vacuum. If you do not get the I7+ with self-emptying base, depending on size of your house, you may have to empty bin multiple times. Of course, my Neato died a couple months ago so there was some accumulated dust and debris picked up in this first cleaning. That's it for day one and two. Once past the "problems" the I7+ does a good job cleaning, is pretty quiet while running, and has some nice features in the iPhone app. Assuming I run into no further problems I'd recommend get the i7+ (no s much the I7 due to size of dust bin). Day 2-7; no problems and my house is staying a lot cleaner than depending on me to sweep and dust. Couple months later ... Had some problems with robot that were addressed via conversations with support team over three days -- who very very nice. After factory reset and full mapping run problems went away. One suggestion ... I was having t he robot clean the while house (2200 sq ft) in one pass which required a few stops for recharging. The result was that it sometimes did not make it back to charger or forgot where it left off. My solution was to have it clean 1/4 of the house each day for 4 days. Since doing that I've had no problems.
