Pros
  • Costs about $300 with a self-emptying dock and LiDAR mapping
  • Dock holds up to 75 days of debris, so emptying is rare
  • Steers around carpet when mopping, so rugs stay dry
Cons
  • The pad must be rinsed by hand after mopping
  • Mopping is a damp wipe, not a scrub, so dried spills stay
  • Needs replacement dock bags
  • iRobot doesn’t publish suction, runtime or threshold figures
