iRobot’s Roomba Combo j7+ is $305 off for Black Friday
Sometimes Black Friday is about picking up a fun new gadget and other times it’s about getting a really good deal on that practical item you need. The majorly discounted iRobot’s Roomba Combo j7+ falls deeply into that latter category, but the $ 305 savings is enough to get anyone excited. You can access the deal at Wellbots with Engadget’s exclusive coupon ENGBF305 — and get free shipping.
The iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ is a 2-in-1 vacuum and mop for cleaning all types of floors. It can do both tasks in the same go (without you needing to interfere) due to its retractable mop pad. The Roomba reportedly has a 96.4 percent debris removal rate, using iRobot’s Edge-Sweeping Brush, Dual Multi-Surface Rubber Brushes and Power-Lifting Suction. The combo device also includes advances obstacle avoidance, home mapping and self emptying. Plus, you can control it through an app or with voice control services like Alexa or Google.
We found the Roomba Combo j7+ took a little adjusting to during our test, but grew to appreciate features like its awareness of high-traffic zones. In fact, we recently named it the best robot vacuum and mop 2-in-1 on the market — with the standard j7+ as the runner up for best standard midrange.

iRobot’s poop-detecting Roomba j7+ is at an all-time low price right now
Some of the most advanced Roomba robot vacuums are on sale right now. Wellbots has the poop-detecting iRobot Roomba j7+ for an all-time low price of $ 549. Or, you can opt for our favorite vacuum / mop hybrid, the upgraded Roomba j7+ Combo, for $ 799. In both cases, you can enter the coupon code ENGROOMBA200 to receive the $ 200 discount exclusively for Engadget readers.
The Roomba j7+ includes a bundled cleaning station and iRobot’s poop detection tech. The company says the vacuum’s advanced sensors will avoid pet feces — and its “Pet Owner Official Promise” (P.O.O.P.) policy assures you it will replace the device for free if it runs over pet waste within its first year. The self-emptying vacuum also includes an intelligent mapping feature that lets you choose which rooms it covers, and you can schedule multiple cleanings per day in advance. The Roomba j7+ is usually $ 800, so its $ 549 discounted price (with code ENGROOMBA200) is worth noting if you’ve been on the lookout for a cleaning machine.
Wellbots’ coupon also applies to that model’s upgraded sibling, one of Engadget’s picks for the best robot vacuums. The Roomba j7+ Combo takes the j7+’s base features (including self-emptying tech and poop detection) and adds wet mopping, letting you transition seamlessly between carpet and floor cleaning. (It can do both simultaneously on hard floors.) It also includes a feature that can help keep your rugs dry by lifting the mop out of reach when it detects it’s on a carpet. The j7+ Combo typically costs $ 1,100.
Both devices work with the iRobot mobile app. It lets you manage the devices’ smart mapping capabilities, remote startup and scheduling. We find the app to be simple, intuitive and a significant selling point for Roomba robot cleaners.

iRobot’s poop-detecting Roomba j7+ robot vacuum is $200 off right now
If you missed the last sale on iRobot's latest robot vacuums, you're in luck. Both the Roomba j7+ and the Roomba s9+ are $ 200 off at Wellbots when you use the code ENGMOM200 at checkout. That brings them down to $ 599 and $ 799, respectively, which are both close to the best prices we've seen on both vacuums.
Buy Roomba j7+ at Wellbots – $ 599Buy Roomba s9+ at Wellbots – $ 799
The newer of the two is the Roomba j7+, which came out at the end of last year. It's technically not as powerful as the s9+, but it has new AI-driven computer vision technology that helps it detect objects and move around them as it cleans. Because of that, iRobot dubbed this their "pet-poop detecting" robot, and the company even has the Pet Owner Official Promise (or P.O.O.P. for short), which states that you'll get a new vacuum if the one you bought fails to avoid accidental pet poop in your home.
The Roomba j7+ isn't the most powerful vacuum in the company's lineup, but it does have 10x the suction power of a standard Roomba, plus smart mapping, dual multi-surface brushes and more. The "plus" model also comes with a clean base into which the robo-vac will automatically empty its dustbin after each cleaning job.
The Roomba s9+, on the other hand, is the top-of-the-line vacuum from iRobot, and it has 40x the suction power of the standard models, a 3D sensor for object detection and a design that helps it clean room corners more easily. Both it and the Roomba j7+ are compatible with Amazon's Alexa and the Google Assistant, so in addition to controlling them from the iRobot mobile app, you can also tell them to clean up your home using voice commands.
