If you own a pet, the new Roomba j7 Plus vacuum cleaner can give you a little mind.

Plowing in solid pet waste is the final judgment situation for robot vacuum cleaners. They can’t avoid it or pick it up, let alone dispose of it. Unfortunately, the most likely outcome here is that a robot will further distribute the damage you have already done to your apartment. What if a vacuum robot could avoid these messy surprises? Enter the new $ 849 iRobot Roomba j7 Plus.

According to iRobot, the j7 Plus is smart enough to recognize and avoid pet waste. A company representative told me that “iRobot was formed [[the vacuum’s]]ML (machine learning) algorithms that use hundreds of thousands of images of real, fake and simulated dog and cat waste. “The spokesman said:” iRobot is so confident that its pet waste detection will live up to the task of offering customers the official pet owner’s promise (POOP). “Yes, you read that right.

iRobot claims that the Roomba j7 robot vacuum cleaner can detect and prevent solid pet waste.

Basically this means that iRobot will replace any Roomba j7 Plus for free if it does not detect pet poop and as a result gets dirty. Of course, this offer has limitations and warnings. For one thing, the promise is good for up to a year from the date of purchase by the original owner.

Second, the supply covers solid pet waste not more. If your furry friend leaves wetter deposits (such as diarrhea, vomiting, or urine), you’re out of luck. Still, iRobot says the vacuum will alert you when it encounters objects of concern. It will be presented as images for review, including things your pet has left behind.

The Roomba j9 can also recognize obstacles such as cords.

If the Roomba j7 Plus meets these claims, it will be a remarkable success. Some advanced robot vacuum cleaners, such as the Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo T8, you can avoid traps like shoes and laces. Neither Ecovacs nor any other manufacturer of vacuum robots (other than iRobot) can boast of avoiding robotic poop.

The Roomba j7 Plus is not only designed to handle unpleasant situations. As iRobot’s newest flagship vacuum cleaner, the product includes all of the company’s latest bells and whistles. This includes the latest iRobot Genius 3.0 software and advanced navigation features. Key features of Genius 3.0 are automatic cleaning when you’re not there, suggesting room names while mapping your home and calculating cleaning time estimates.

The Roomba j7 Plus comes with a loading dock that also empties the robot’s trash. Dirt is collected in practical disposable suction bags.

Like other iRobot machines like the Roomba s9 Plus, the Roomba j7 Plus includes a “clean base” loading dock. It allows the robot to empty its own trash can and keep the battery charged. The dock also deposits dirt in a handy vacuum bag. iRobot claims that this vacuum bag can last up to 60 days without the need to replace it.

If the Roomba j7 Plus sounds like a dream of floor cleaning come true, you’ll be in for a treat. The model goes on sale today in the US, Canada and Europe. It should reach out to buy in other major markets throughout 2022.
