i7+

I’ve had Roombas since ~2016, a 960 and an i7+. While I wish they integrated with HomeAssistant a little better, they have been rock solid, especially the i7+ due to the self emptying. Currently the i7 runs daily on the main floor and the 960 runs in my bedroom(when I remember to empty it). Had to replace some parts on the i7 and they were mostly easily acquirable directly from iRobot, so that has been nice. Do a little bit of network monitoring and they don’t really ever seem to randomly phone home, so that’s nice.

Have a Roomba i7+ (self emptying). It did great with a GSD. With the lab it does well on wood floors and self-emptying works great. However on shag it does leave some rolled up clumps of hair that I can grab by hand when it's done. Now own three different vacs and a carpet cleaner for a 1000 sq ft condo... but he's the best dog ever so it's all good. The hairy beast https://preview.redd.it/etoxjprzs3kg1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9dbbe2e0810c25e838e71d4f43bb7af499ef1cb

I'm still using mu Roomba e6 , i7+ and Briavia mopper and they work perfectly in cleaning my place. IMO, no need for the newest most expensive robot :)

I \_just\_ moved from Roomba (i7+) to Roborock (Qrevo CurvX) a couple weeks ago and still have two i7+'s running (or trying to run) on the other levels of my home. In almost every way, the Roborock makes the Roomba feel like it's a hundred years old. In other ways, likely related to stupid patents, the Roomba is better. \* The Roomba empties the bin whenever it's full. Gotta play settings games in Roborock and hope it gets it right. \* The roomba will back up and re-vacuum and area where it detects more dirt. This will also be reflected in the map after a run, which matters not at all except to give you a sense of "yeah, I did see a mess there. So it's working." \* I can save "zones" to clean in rather than set them up every time or make them part of a routine. This is such an oversight that I have to believe it's also patent-related.

I have two Roomba i7+. One works most of the time and one mostly doesn;t for no apparent reason. Won;t buy this unit again.

I bought a Roomba i7+ back in 2020 and it recently turned 5! I've used cheap Amazon replacement parts and it still does a good job. ALTHOUGH! iRobot corporate had been having some issues lately. They were supposed to be acquired by Amazon but that deal fell through. I think they almost went bankrupt as well. If I were to buy a new robot vacuum today, I would likely be eyeing roborock. Lastly, regarding these robot vacuums, I'm pretty firm on the saying "you get what you pay for" within this genre of purchases.

We have an iRobot i7+ and it does a wonderful job. We have tons of pet hair and our floor feels smooth barefoot afterwards. There is way more upkeep on the robot with 2 Australian Shepherds and we still make a pass or two on our living room carpet to get the deep stuff. The self-empty feature is so nice. The mapping system is difficult at first. Make sure the space is VERY clear for the first few runs as it figured out the map of your floorplan but very happy with ours!
