Domande frequenti
Do iRobot Roombas use cameras or lasers to navigate?
Most models in this lineup use PrecisionVision camera navigation and Imprint Smart Mapping to learn your home layout. However, some newer combo models in our list include LiDAR for improved navigation and coverage.
Can I get a Roomba that both vacuums and mops?
Yes, there are several hybrid combo models available that feature mopping capabilities. Some versions include advanced features like heated scrubbing, auto-retracting mops, or self-cleaning AutoWash docks.
How much maintenance do I have to do with the auto-empty docks?
Many iRobot models come with specialized docks that handle dirt disposal for you. Depending on the specific model, these docks can hold enough debris to last between 60 and 75 days.
Are there models designed specifically for pet owners?
Several models are well-suited for homes with pets. The j-series includes a P.O.O.P guarantee to avoid pet waste, and many models use dual multi-surface rubber brushes to manage hair and debris effectively.
