The ability to set schedules is among the most useful features that you can use, and you can set it to clean at a time most convenient for you.

SMART NAVIGATION
This robot will build an intelligent map of your house using Imprint technology and then vacuum and mop.

They loosen and lift dirt, which is then removed by suction using Power-Lifting.
It'll also automatically return to the docking station if its dust bin is full. When it's time to empty the app will notify you so that you can empty it and begin vacuuming. It is also compatible with iRobot's self-emptying clean base that makes it simple to clean your bins.
There are some negatives to this product. First, it's quite expensive. The second issue is that the documentation is very minimal, and there's absolutely nothing in the printed manuals about how to fix issues with wifi connectivity. If you are able to overcome these minor issues, the iRobot Roomba Combo is a great investment for your home.

This allows it to clean large areas before having to return to its docking station for recharging. This increases the convenience of the user and helps in ensuring uninterrupted cleaning classes.
This robot vacuum and mop comes with an automatic emptying bin. This feature is perfect for busy households as it reduces the frequency with which they empty the bin. It automatically dumps the waste into a larger bin located in its charging station. This can hold up to 60 days of debris, and is more convenient than a standard mop or vacuum that requires you to empty the bins.
This model, in contrast to some of its competitors it does not employ precision-vision. Instead it relies on simple floor tracking and algorithm-based navigation. This means it may be unable to locate certain areas in your home and isn't as efficient in avoiding obstacles as the other models. It is still a good vacuum for most debris and it's offered at an affordable price.
The Roomba Combo J5+ can be controlled using your voice. It works with Alexa-enabled devices, such as Siri and Google Assistant. You can instruct the Roomba to start a cleaning session, view its map, or build digital obstacles. The app lets you alter your schedule and keep track of your cleaning schedule.

Roomba j9+ iRobot from iRobot
The Roomba J9+ builds on past Roomba improvements and its enhanced intelligence and superb cleaning ability set it apart from virtually all of its rivals. It's designed for bigger homes with pets and to clean both hard and soft floors. It can tackle dirt, dust and pet hair. It's also the smartest iRobot Roomba ever, with advanced features such as Dirt Detective and mopping automation that can anticipate your cleaning requirements.
Like its predecessor, the j9+ uses iRobot's PrecisionVision navigation technology and a camera to sense obstacles in your home. This lets the robot avoid cords, furniture wires, shoes, and even pet poop (which it is able to recognize thanks to iRobot's famous P.O.O.P promise). The j9+ also comes with a smaller, more furniture-friendly self-emptying Clean Base.
After your robot has cleaned a certain area, it docks to the Clean Base where its dirt bin will be emptied automatically. The iRobot Home app records the results of each cleaning job and shows cleaned areas on your map. The app lets you select a specific time to mopping and/or vacuuming.
The iRobot Home App will estimate the cleaning time when you choose a specific vacuuming or mopping time. You can also choose the number of passes to clean (one, two or "room-size" that tackles larger rooms at a time and smaller spaces up to three times). You can also adjust the power and water levels and bin behavior.
The iRobot App also comes with an interesting feature called review of images. The robot will snap a picture of any obstacle it is unable to recognize and send it to you to review. You can mark the object as an obstacle or add Keep-Out Zones around it. The j9+ will avoid the object on subsequent occasions.
The automatic mopping feature is a major reason why we prefer the J9+ to other robot vacuums. The j9+ is able to automatically clean hard-to-clean debris and dirt when you enable SmartScrub in the app. It also can detect and move around areas that are wet, like coffee spilled and grime. However, despite its numerous automatic mopping features the j9+ does not clean its mop pads automatically like its rivals.
iRobot SwitchBot
The SwitchBot is a great choice for those who are fans of robot vacuum cleaners, but prefer the versatility and convenience of a mop. This tiny robot combines the best features of both categories in an elegant device that seamlessly fits into your decor. It's a decent vacuum cleaner and mops. It is able to navigate your space over different surfaces and has powerful suction that can take care of dust, pet hair, and dander.
The SwitchBot's small size also provides it with an advantage in areas that are cluttered in which larger robots may struggle to navigate around furniture. After connecting the SwitchBot to your Wi-Fi, it'll show an app on your phone with simple controls, including a button to start a cleaning job and another for clearing out any clutter. You can also create no-go zones to prevent the bot from accidentally sweeping up items that you don't want to.
During my testing of the SwitchBot, I found that the SwitchBot was able to move around my apartment without any problems, and picked up crumbs and dribbles on hard floors and carpets using the vacuum setting. The system's intelligent navigation system makes use of LDS laser-radar to build a blueprint of your home so that it can accurately map the layout. The system also detects and avoids objects likely to become stuck or crushed by the robot.
When the vac setting on, the SwitchBot's edge-sweeping brush spins and sweeps up any debris in its path. It also reaches underneath tables and chairs, so it's an excellent option for homes that host lots of family gatherings. You can alter the speed, direction, and power of the vacuum motor through the app settings.When the SwitchBot is set to mop mode, it has a disposable wipe on its underside that you can change when they're empty. The wipes are cheaper and less in waste than washable pads, which are used by most robotic mop models. The wipes fit snugly, preventing them from falling out like they do on other robot mop. The robot has a cleaning tool that is usually hidden within a compartment at the side of the charging unit.
