"Self emptying (the ones with a dock) was really important for me."
"best vacuuming particularly if you pair it with an auto empty dock"
"The second one I got was self emptying so it can continue all by itself and I really appreciate it. I only have to empty the main basin once a week and that's it. Super convenient"

Never had me roomba j series run into poop. ... My Roomba J9+ avoided diarrhea ... Because both my Dreame L series and Roomba J series did the same test flawlessly"
"Oh I had it, it’s even worse. Try testing out its avoidance with almost anything, especially on carpets. ... Yeah, on hard floor it seems to do well; it’s issues are pretty specific to carpet from my experience. ... Same issues with all my carpets."

"It has a water tank on it for mopping but it really is useless because it is just gravity fed water and many times doesn't even wet the floor."
"Of these, the worst mopping will be the Q5 and Q8 robots, which just have stationary pads attached to the back."
"The self mopping feature imo is not worth it"
