Combo J5+

My j5+ is really good with pet hair. No clogs or tangles. Long human hair does get stored inside the rollers, but will eventually wrap around the rollers My Ecovacs x1 and roborock s6 have a bristle brush that pet hair gets stuck in

I'm really happy with my j5+. Every run is fine and I have ~450 hours on it. It's navigation sucks compared to my lidar bots and it can't run in the dark. It also seems like the older combos are less reliable. With that being said it vacuums well and has good obstacle avoidance. It can handle insane messes thanks to the bin sensors

Obstacle detection/avoidance of the j series is good, it's the navigation that is problematic (hard hitting walls/furniture, poor coverage, and getting lost) I feel that this model needs better anti-tangling tech to be more competitive

My Roomba did that once, but I'm 70 and once it saw me naked in the shower it immediately turned around and fled then caught on fire 🔥

I can't comment between Roborock and Roomba I can only say that my Roomba J5+ works quite well for vacuuming except on a very very thick (quasi Shag) carpet. I question whether they're going to go out of business especially when they're such a huge market for replacement parts bags etc I'm assuming they license other companies to provide some of those parts aftermarket. I don't use mine to mop so I can't comment on that. I found once I did the initial setup including mapping both floors of my house It works very well except on occasion it has a problem docking and emptying itself But that's usually resolved quickly. When there is some kind of problem I find the information provided to the app is generally pretty helpful. About the only thing that's missing it would be nice to show its current location on the map within the app. But for most people that's not a problem since you can just track it down yourself in your house. If I recall it beeps to help you locate it if it gets stuck but that's been an extremely rare occurrence.

Just avoid Roombas. They're really loud so you can't really run them when you're in the house whereas Eufy and Roborock are very quiet (maybe not all of them just the ones I've seen). Roombas have also fallen behind on software, I spent €900 to replace my 4 year old 960 with a J9+ Combo, it's constantly struggling to dock, if you take if off the dock yourself it loses the mop function unless you restart it literally 10 times and it's forever getting stuck or ignoring the saved map. Now I have the clean bag full error after two months when the previous bag lasted me a full year. I got a J5+ for upstairs and it's equally bad. Can never find the dock or will do a random 10 minute clean before going back. My 960 wasn't perfect but when I bought it, it was one of the only decent ones on the market as they hadn't taken off at the time and it was also on the US market for like 4 years by the time I bought it.

It's fine, mine j5 is 3 years in and still going. It is pretty good at cleaning the apartment, it was still a life changer. I bought cheap replacement parts and filters off Amazon and never looked back. 

I have 7 long haired dogs and a Dreame L40S Ultra CE that I've had about 45 days now. I'm on all laminate flooring. Compared to my irobot J5 and the Roborock QRevo, this current vac gets clogged and hair wrapped less than those 2. However, I do pull the roller brush every other day and clean off the ends. My old Narwal T10 is my favorite robot mop, and is still in use. It's lacking some app features but I'm sure those have been improved for the flow. The flow was out of my price range, but it looked super promising for being resistant to hair tangle. One thing to remember when setting up is to divide rooms further than normal to get the robot to go back to base and empty the onboard bin. That will keep you from having clog issues.
