Boston- Whether you're buying one for yourself or someone you want to gift it to there are plenty of early Black Friday robot vacuum deals to make use of. The brands are offering discounts on a variety of products that include self-emptying vacuums as well as ones that can mop.

Some highlights include the iRobot Roomba Combo j5+ with a self-emptying dock available at Walmart and an Amazon bestseller that can detect pet poop, stay clear of steps and ledges and even plan cleanings on your smartphone.

1. iRobot Roomba Combo j5+

The Roomba Combo j5+ is the newest 2-in-1 model from iRobot's high-end line that comes with mopping and vacuuming capabilities. It is powered by iRobot OS which makes it smarter over time and creates an outline of your floors. It lets you label your rooms, make cleaning schedules, and create no-mop areas for your carpets. It utilizes vSLAM navigation, and has the ability to detect obstacles and objects thanks to iRobot's latest obstacle avoidance technology. It is also able to detect carpets of all types, from low-pile up to thick and adjust the cleaning mode accordingly.

Similar to the iRobot Combo j7+, this model features Power-Lifting Suction and is designed for both vacuuming and mopping. It comes with separate dirt bins and a second mop/vacuuming combo bin that you can fill with liquid cleaner or water. The robot automatically switches from vacuuming to mopping mode according to the contents of its bin.

The Roomba Combo j5+ uses iRobot's Enhanced mVac Mode to deliver powerful dust suction, which leaves your floors sparkling clean. This mode uses the Clean Base Automatic Dirt collection system to empty the robot's dirt bin which gives you a hands-free experience. The Combo j5+ has a dedicated power switch that allows you to switch instantly between mopping and cleaning.

The iRobot Home App makes it easy to use and set up your robot. With just a few taps you can create a personalized cleaning plan for your entire home or just one room. You can also see the status of your robot and monitor it remotely.

You can make use of your smartphone as a remote control to start cleaning or use your voice to command it. The iRobot Combo j5+ is compatible with Alexa, Siri and Google Assistant. This makes it easier to pair your smart home devices. It comes with pet-safe P.O.O.P technology (Pet owner official promise) which helps it avoid pet messes. This is a great choice for pet owners who would like the convenience of a robot vacuum and mop.

2. Shark ION

The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner that comes with an impressive amount of features for the price. It has a long run time and it is able to clean carpeted and bare floors rooms. It is a great app and is well used with Alexa. However, it isn't equipped with the mapping capabilities and other advanced controls that are offered by more expensive competitors.

This robotic vacuum has powerful motors and multi-surface brush rolls that get into corners and cracks to make sure your home is spotless. It also has bumper sensors to help it avoid collisions, and an lower cliff detector to stop the robot from falling. It can even be programmed to run a single room or a set of rooms in scheduled intervals, and it is capable of resuming cleaning sessions that were stopped midway through.

The Shark ION is extremely effective at cleaning bare floors. However, it has a difficult time to remove pet hairs and other debris from carpeted surfaces. It can also get stuck under furniture. However, it does a decent job of avoiding obstacles, and it has a runtime of up to 90 minutes.

One of the most appealing aspects about this robot is its easy-to-use interface. You can use the round button on the top of the unit to begin a cleaning, or launch the Shark ION App on your phone and give the command. Once you've done that, the app will tell you the current battery level and the status of the vacuum as well as if it has completed a full or partial cleaning session.

Many customers also liked the fact that this robot is compatible with Alexa. It is easy to turn the vacuum on and off with the simple voice command and you can use the app to schedule cleaning times. The only issue we found with this robot is that it takes a little longer to charge than the other models we've examined, and that the two included hand vac attachments aren't able to fit in the base and can be lost quite easily.

3. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Apart from being a top-rated robotic vacuum in the market, this Samsung model also doubles as a camera for home monitoring. It has a lens you can access via your smartphone and is designed to monitor the surroundings of your home. You can set up a schedule to have it monitor your home even when you're away. This is great if you have pets that shed or you want to watch out for anyone sneaking in.

Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is equipped with a range of features that include object recognition, home monitoring, self-emptying bins for dust and five layers of filtration. It's an excellent option for those looking for an exceptional vacuum that is able to perform on hard floors but isn't afraid of a little dust on carpets.

The robot's advanced obstacle avoidance is one of its best features. It utilizes sensors and artificial intelligence in combination to scan the surroundings and identify items. It either navigates around the object or declares it an unfriendly zone on the map. This feature isn't found on many other robots and makes the Samsung an extremely safe option for your home.

This model isn't very good at spot cleaning. We asked the robot to clean a carpet with rice grains scattered over it. The machine was unable to take up or push the rice grains. This is a disappointing result given that other models have performed better in this test.

It's also worth mentioning that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ is a little pricey in comparison to its rivals. Other robotic vacuums offer the same performance for a lower cost. For instance, you could purchase a top-rated robot vacuum that has similar features for half the cost with the Eufy RoboVac X8 Hybrid.

The SmartThings application is used to control this robot, as well as other Samsung smart products. It is easy to set up using the in-app prompts. The app lets you look at the map, make cleaning schedules, alter suction, set no-go areas, and manage other settings. It also shows you the current status of the robot vacuum cleaner for carpet as well as when the dustbin should be emptied.

4. Manvins Robot Vacuum & Mop Combo

This all-in-one cleaner could be the perfect solution for people who aren't ready to invest in an individual robot vacuum or mop. It's currently available for half the price and comes with four different cleaning modes. The vacuum dust container is easy to empty and the mopping tank is able to hold 200 milliliters (7 8 ounces).

We tried this robot in our Cleaning Lab last year, and discovered that it was able to perform well on hard floors as well as carpets with low pile. Its Matrix Clean Navigation, which uses a grid-like pattern to clean every corner of your home, is able to also recognize stairs. It also comes with an remote control that makes it easy to adjust the settings.

Another plus is that it works by using voice commands, so you can initiate and end the cleaning process by with an app on your smartphone or tablet. The app allows you to define a cleaning routine and choose a cleaning mode. The battery can last for Wet Dry Robot Vacuum up to 100 minutes and the robot automatically returns to its base to charge after every cleaning session or when the power is low.

This robot vacuum is a popular choice for busy families, and it's currently priced at more than 50% off its original price. It boasts a 4 out of 5 customer rating, and its intelligent cleaning system has the three-step process of cleaning that will ensure your home is clean and fresh. It can detect pet hair and dander so it is a great choice for households that have pets.

Modern robotic vacuums and mops can be used with smartphones and apps. These apps allow you to save maps of your house, create customized cleaning programs, and manage your machine. Some models have smart mopping pads that wet dry robot vacuum between usages. This can prevent the growth of mildew or bacteria on the floor.

The slim design of the vacuum and mop combination makes it easy to fit into corners and under furniture. Its full suites of sensors can gracefully dodge obstacles and steps.
