Customer Ratings & Reviews

I upgraded to this after a refurbished Shark model I tried broke after two weeks. It is night and day how much better the i7+ is compared to its Shark counterpart. From how much better it cleans, the way it maps and allows you the ability to set up cleaning and non cleaning zones, and it doesn’t get stuck or jammed as much. You still have to have a relatively clean and uncluttered floor for this to work properly so if you are a slob this won’t help. You’ll spend more time unjamming the rollers or picking it up from being stuck. But if you keep a relatively clean home but want something to help automate a chore and add an extra level of clean then this is a great buy. We live in a zoned rural area with three school age kids, three cats, two dogs, and all the friends coming and going so there’s a lot of foot traffic but this thing handles cleaning the hardwood and low pile carpet. they i just do a quick mop with hot water and murphy’s oil and the house looks like new. I love my i7+, i call it my baby and named her Death to Dirt, and I don’t allow anyone else in the house to touch her! Also sprung for the two year service plan and have always been satisfied with Best Buy when I’ve had to access a plan for an item that needs repair. Be careful of fishing line and similar items. They’ll trash the brushes and rollers while getting jammed up in the wheels. Nightmare. Only down side is the bags are a bit pricey depending on how often you need to change them out, and the actual Roomba brand ones are hard to find consistently. It would be nice if you could use without the bags, which you can, but then you have to pick up the whole base to dump it into the trash and it’s a pain. also wouldn’t want to break the fan/suction system inside because i don’t think the screen would keep it from getting jammed.

Once I got my house mapped, the robot does a good job. I received error messages while in training mode, and trying to find what they meant and how to resolve them was like working my way through the levels of a video game. There is no comprehensive users manual on the iRobot app. One must navigate to the frequently asked questions, and enter keywords or phrases and hope the subsequent search brings up the information you’re seeking. My biggest disappoint with this unit is that it presses against my white baseboards so hard when it’s cleaning that it leaves black streaks along the entire length and even around corners. If not for the issue with the baseboards and the lack of a users manual, this would be a 5 star rating.

Love, love, love this Vacuum!!!! I have three dogs in my house and needless to say there is a lot of fur around. I work long hours and have an extremely busy schedule. This vacuum has made my life so much easier. I set it to vacuum at 5am before anyone is up and the floors always look great. I flip it over once a week to remove fur from the moving parts and it's good to go. It even emptys it’s own bin. I don't know how I have made it without it.

This has made keeping my tile floors clean a breeze. It runs when I want it to and cleans very well. Hasn't got stuck at all anywhere it has been.

The i7 robot with dirt disposal for us is like an added set of hands to help clean the house making the chore much easier to complete. Before we purchased the i7 someone asked us: what about pet accidents? Our answer is to not use the irobot auto cleaning schedule if you have pets in the house, and to check the i7's cleaning territory before you tell it to clean. With this rule we have never had an incident. It very convenient to use the phone app and tell our i7 to go clean a specific room, and it does it with no complaints.

Let me tell you how great this little guy (or girl) is. In the year 2018, I decided to get my self a furry companion. I wont bore with the details on how I named her but her name is Rona. Little did I know, Rona was going to be the dog equivalent of a hurricane except instead of rain and wind, shes a fur and farts. Also, little did I know, there was going to be a world pandemic 2 years later that would take her nickname "Rona season" to a whole new level. But let me tell you, my dog dogs fur could go toe-to-toe with covid on who spreads faster. At this point I may have lost you, but every great story has a detailed set up. With our move into a new home that is immensely larger than our previous studio in the city, we knew we could not keep up with cleaning. In comes Victor, our new iRobot i7 vacuum. After a short issue connecting to our wifi (my fault, not victors), we got this little guy (possibly girl) up and rolling. With in a day, victor new our new floor plan faster than I could mow the front lawn (its really small #colorado). Speaking of colorado, victor has no issue with high altitude contrary to unpopular belief. All in all, victor has saved us from the pain of vacuuming. I set victor up to run in the morning and evening and he (could be a she) is looking skinnier than even. I find my self watching victor vacuum like my old neighbor used to watch me vacuum. Except he was outside looking in. Highly recommend the purchase. You wont regret it.

I have only owned my Roomba 3 days, but I am already a believer. I work from home and have a fairly small, very dusty apartment with a cat. I have been thinking about a robot vacuum for years - but really thought it would be a waste of money. I have had chronic sinusitis and sinus surgery this past summer, I also struggle with fatigue, add to that the my fur ball cat that sheds everywhere, manages to kick litter and I’m not sure how she does it but she is the messiest eater. I read rice after review and settled on the shark self cleaning equivalent and was so excited. That lasted 1 day, their app is so glitchy that the robot wouldn’t connect even after a very long support call, resetting, etc. the batter didn’t charge even after 24 hrs plugged in, I brought it back to Best Buy and just went for it even though I thought even the sale price was ridiculous ($699- worth every penny’s) unlike the shark, it was very easy to set up, the app connected immediately and within 3 hours Rosie did her first run through of my apartment. Here is the best part - my cat, who is terrified of the vacuum and hiss for hours after every use had zero fear of the roomba. (Rosie the roomba). She watched it with a skeptical eye but as she worked her way through the apartment she got braver and followed her. The app shows where the trouble ‘dirtier’ spots are and it will spend more time on those areas I have hard wood floors and is able to easily go on frim the floor to the carpets, even over the high bathroom threshold and the bath mat, she fits under my sectional and the first run there were only a few spots she missed, but she has learned the apartment layout and now gets those spots. The suction strength is good, maybe not as strong as my dyson, but it picked up litter, crumbs, dust, cat hair. I have run it once a day - and I swear last night the cat was waiting for it to start like it is a toy. My apartment has never been cleaner. After 2 runs I was able to label my rooms so I can have Rosie clean a specific room. It is not very loud,y apartment is small and I was watching tv when I started the clean cycle tonight and it didn’t bother me at all. The app is also great, it should how long each cleaning was, and you can look at a map to see where the room a went and where the heavier dirt spot were. And the length of a full cleaning run has gone down by a few minutes each time, so maybe it learns the layout a bit more each time? Or maybe there is less dirt to pick up? It is only day three so time will tell, but so far I’m really impressed, my dyson might collect some dust in the closet!

This one save time to clean our house easy to connect to the internet overall we are satisfied only the time to clean by the vacuum stand it was so noisy.

We love our little i7. It like to jump off cliffs, but stops itself everytime.

Really love this i7 Roomba. It does a great job of vacuuming entire house plus empties the dirt itself. We have named our Roomba the “Magic Turtle”. I bought this item online from Best Buy due to extra warranty they offered. It was the easiest purchase I’ve ever made. Got to choose the time I wanted to pickup; plus they even brought it outside & loaded it in the trunk of my car. Perfect- no contact.

This thing is AMAZING!!! Best investment! No more vacuuming!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love my new Roomba! We named her Cinderella at my house. Does a great job on carpets and hard floors, even does well over some bumpy imperfections in the flooring. I like that I’m able to choose different rooms to clean by the app and by using Alexa. I was hesitant about getting the dock because of the price increase, but I’m so glad I got it anyway. It makes a huge difference in how easy it is to use when you’re not manually emptying it out each time!

This is my 2nd robot vacuum but a huge upgrade over my previous one (not an Roomba). I have extremely please with my I7+ model. It picks up much better around and over our rug and im not constantly cleaning and emptying the dust bin. We have 2 dogs (and one's a husky... if you know, you know!) and this vacuum is a champ so far.

Work great! We bought it just to keep up with dog hair. Does great on our LVP floors, and rugs. Haven’t tested in out on carpet.

I've had this model for the past 3 years. The first one was great. I just upgraded to this one so I could get the self-emptying bin, plus it was on sale. I really wish I hadn't wasted the money. The quality has really gone down. This one can't get the mapping right (the old one/same model had NO issue with it). I finally just reloaded the previous map to this one and it STILL can't get it right. I've wasted so much time trying to get that fixed. This new one does an absolutely terrible job of cleaning compared to the old. I have to run it multiple times. I only have tile floors and thin area rugs. It can't even get the tile floors cleaned well. It's more likely to push dog fur or dirt around than to suck it up, unfortunately. The self-emptying feature does work quite well for what it does manage to pick up.

This iRobot I7 has trouble cleaning all areas that it’s supposed to it gets lost, and it never hardly ever empties the bin on its own I think it’s way overpriced

Very quiet while running, self emptying is a little loud. I love that goes in rows. So far it has been great. My older model was loud and all over the place.

Love! This device can be set at any time during the day. It vacuums every part of the house! This device is definitely worth it for the price. The only downside is that when it goes to empty it can be pretty loud! But that’s the least of my worries.

We have owned several iRobot vacuums in the past. We recently moved into a new home and decided to try the latest S9+ model, this model arrived perfectly packaged but when we powered it up, it would clean only a small area and then the red light ring would appear. We returned that model and when we could not get another S9 without having to wait for weeks, we decided to replace with the i7+ and glad we did, it works beautifully. We have had some minor connectivity issues and during a mapping it got stuck but these are common and easy fixes. When the vacuum returns to base the dirt disposal runs and empties the bin. The i7 is also the model most recommended for pet households (great at picking up all that cat hair). Would recommend.

This product is able to cover and clean my 2700sq ft home and surprisenly does a good job. A bit loud but I utube this product and it was one of the lowest in decibel. I only wish I would've purchased the system with mopping. It really works and is very helpful.
