According to our robot vacuum expert
With the iRobot Roomba i7+, the common complaint about the small dust container is a thing of the past. This robot vacuum empties its reservoir at the charging station during charging. This charging station contains a vacuum cleaner bag and you can throw it away when it's full.
High suction powerThe suction power of the i7+ is 10 times higher compared to the Roomba 600 series. As a result, the robot vacuum sucks up more dirt in one go and even the fine dust is vacuumed. In addition, it blows its exhaust air to the side. As a result, the robot vacuum no longer spreads dust throughout the room.
Control and Smart HomeVia the app on your phone, you can see exactly where the robot is or indicate when you want it to go for a spin. Or you ask Alexa or Google to turn on the robot. Is the battery empty? The vacuum will drive back to the charging station where it empties his dust container.
iRobot Home AppAn important advantage of the iRobot Home app is that you can fully personalize every cleaning job. You put together your cleaning schedules per room in the house. The Robot Status Card shows the estimated cleaning time and the elapsed cleaning time per room. It's possible to pause or locate the robot if it's stuck.

I've had a Roomba for 9 years (first a 'dumb' 560), recently the 'smart' 980, but despite my satisfaction with the Roomba, there was one thing that was missing all those years: if you don't empty the bin, then the robot useless (and practice showed that unfortunately we didn't always think about it either). Emptying is not a big job, but also not the most pleasant: emptying the container still raises dust while you knock it over the garbage can, but the solution has come: the i7+. This is what I've been waiting for all these years.
i7 robot The i7 itself is significantly quieter than its predecessors. This is probably because it has lost the extra suction motor from the bin to make way for the automatic emptying of the bin. At first we always wanted to avoid running the Roomba when we were at home, but with the i7 we can hear it, but it's easier to ignore it as background noise. Nevertheless, the i7 (albeit based on 1 week of experience with it) still cleans as well as its predecessors. We have 2 cats and 1 dog, so frequent and good cleaning is essential to keep our house dust and hair free. The i7 (and its Roomba predecessors) is always a great help. He also seems to have less trouble with our mid-high carpet. Something that the 980 could not always come up with, the i7 succeeds every day. Finally, the i7 has better buttons on top. Not mechanical where things can break faster, but touch buttons, which respond well (but which you rarely have to use if you have Alexa or Google home).
i7 base station Yes, this thing just does what it was made for. He empties the bin and does so quickly. It makes a lot of noise, but that's as much noise as our Dyson, but the difference is that the Base Station is ready after 10 seconds and you don't have to do anything yourself. The collection bag is conveniently made, with the opening of the bag closing itself when you take it out (useful to prevent dust from being accidentally blown out of the opening when you replace it). After 1 week about a quarter full, so it can certainly last a month, but the cleaner the house becomes again, the less quickly this bag will fill up, I expect, we'll see in a few weeks and if it is possible I will update the review on this .
Software Connecting for the first time is easy and the app is simple but gives you the options you need. If you're used to the 980 or other smart Roomba versions, the app won't be much different. However, the biggest difference is the new option to set up rooms and therefore to have rooms cleaned separately. It was difficult for me to estimate the added value in advance until you can apply it yourself. Why? With the 980 you could only do ALL rooms, or you had to pick up the roomba, bring it to the room and start it manually. With the i7 you imagine in the app, or at our house we say "Alexa tell Roomb to clean the office" and the Roomba drives straight to the room, cleans there and drives back to the base station, where the bin is emptied. Why this is useful is because you are now more inclined to have a room cleaned immediately (a small room takes about 15 minutes). Drop some cat litter on the floor: send Roomba there. This, coupled with the fact that the i7 is much quieter, means we can let it do its thing right now without it or the whole apt going through and running for 2 hours just because we want to get 1 room clean ( which is now only 15 minutes). With the 980 we just let it do its round in the morning the next day when we were not at home or we took a dustpan and dustpan ourselves. Gone are the days with the i7's new smartmaps.
Price It's expensive, but the convenience is worth it.

I first had the Roomba 960 in itself a robot vacuum cleaner which is ok, occasionally stuck and mainly "dumb" navigation, in the dark almost not working due to poor navigation in low light. This I7 is SO ridiculously better in every way, no need to search for minutes. Is quieter, only needs to be emptied once a month. And the best thing is you can indicate "deadzones" on the mapping of your house where it will not go, so you no longer need those "virtual walls" and no stupid cupboards in your house Navigation learns very quickly, he also has a trainigs mode, find his house very quickly

Cleans thoroughly and takes the corners neatly. You can decide for yourself where to vacuum, we find that very handy! We couldn't miss this Romba i7+ anymore. Should have gotten these a long time ago! Especially with our four-legged friend, who loses quite a bit of hair.
