We really like the way Dave presents his reviews…he was clear and concise about the robots operations and showed his phone’s screen, so we could see what he saw. He helped us make our Black Friday decision.
OMG, I have been searching for how to open the bin on this model all OVER RUclips, with no avail until now! Everyone has the convenient button that opens that door. Mine looked really sketchy to open, and wasn't budging, yet had a hinge on the opposite side, so I was contemplating on if I wanted to test the limits on that green side or not. Thank you for showing this. Although you made it look really easy to open...Ill go try mine again now that I know its supposed to open that way. Thank you!
Yes it self emptied. I only emptied the bin so you could see what it vacuumed up!!! It would probably vacuum up most of the bunny poop if it was small enough. If the poo is too soft though that could get messy!
Bro nice setup behind you. Love that tower. I just got the i5+ after my neato botvac decided it didn't want to work for free anymore. It was a bad worker, after his shift there would still be bits of crystal kitty litter on our hardwood floors. Just did the mapping feature and it's doing it's first shift now. Gonna see how it does and then I'll try the mop feature. This one is crazy fast, can't wait to see how it does.
On our first floor, we have two rooms that are carpet and two that are hardwood. If we want to clean the entire floor should we map the rooms and only mop designated hardwood rooms?
So since the mop can't lift out of the way it will make contact with carpets. Wiped on the carpets is too strong of a word but sure if you mopped up chocolate syrup on your head floor and went right to carpets it will transfer some 😂
I have a few questions. I found this video SUPER helpful! First, if I take it to the second floor, do I bring the charging dock with me? Second, I have a baby gate blocking the kitchen and there’s a one inch lip across the bottom,So it’s a barrier, would I pick it up over that or move the dock? Third and similar to Q 2, my living room has a stupid 2.5 inch step down separating it from the rest of the house (why?!?), again, can I lift it down that step and let it clean or do I have to move the dock? Thanks so much!!
So glad this was helpful for you! So you can really do it however you want but I would recommend just leaving the home base in a set spot and then just moving it to the second floor, over the baby gate, down the 2.5 step etc. Then when it is done you will just bring it back to the base!
I literally watched the videos this guy made for the roomba combo i5 and i5+ and he literally says the exact same thing during time stamp 7:00 did you just insert the same clip from the previous video to make this video? how do we know he even tested this vac and his opinion is actually authentic....
The i5 and i5+ are identical units the only difference is the + in the model number signifies the self empty base!!! Nothing is different performance or spec wise!
No it can't detect and avoid mopping over rugs or carpets. In regards to multi level mapping it only supports one map at a time but is really easy to swap out as needed imo!

Glad it helped you! Thanks for watching and commenting. It means so much!
I have an I4 to do upstairs in the bedrooms and it is shocking how much cat hair it picks up
Why did you need to clean the dust bin? Doesn’t it go to the self empty tank?
Also, can this sucks up bunny poop?
Yes it self emptied. I only emptied the bin so you could see what it vacuumed up!!! It would probably vacuum up most of the bunny poop if it was small enough. If the poo is too soft though that could get messy!

Haha love it! Enjoy your new robo vac!
I just bought it on wallmart’s Black Friday 🥰
Lets gooooo!
How long should we charge it for the first usage? can you explain how working it as the first time?
Let it fully charge. It only needs a few hours then start cleaning! Don't over think it!
On our first floor, we have two rooms that are carpet and two that are hardwood. If we want to clean the entire floor should we map the rooms and only mop designated hardwood rooms?
Yeah that would work!
I'm new to the combo units...but wouldn't all the hard floor grime, then gets wiped off onto your carpets?
I remove my carpets before cleaning
Lol

If the mop is placed, it does not self clean the dust from the robot?
I was wondering the same thing.
Will it vacuum and mop at the same time if we use the mopping pad only?Thank you 🙏🏼
Yes!
@@DigitalDavid thank you 🙏🏼
Can I do mop and vacuum at the same time on carpeted and hardwood floor?
Yes!
If the wheels are lower than the 2 brushes, how do the brushes get into the carpet to pickcup dirt?🤔
The wheels are spring loaded and the brushes make full contact with the ground!
What? You need the app to activate mop?
Yes it's really interesting 🤔

Where can you buy the mopping dustbin separately?
I am not sure you can at the moment... hopefully you can in the future!
Hagan tutoriales en español! Por favor!! 🙋
We hope one day to have our video in all major world languages!!!
I have that Roomba
Awesome!
hi, I have carpets at home, it vacuums the carpets well?
Very well! Love all roombas for carpets!!!
Why can that robot mop also?
Yes it can mop!
Can Roomba i5+ detect and avoid mopping over the area rug in a room ? Are you sure it has option to add multiple maps, like main floor & 1st floor ?
No it can't detect and avoid mopping over rugs or carpets. In regards to multi level mapping it only supports one map at a time but is really easy to swap out as needed imo!
pierwszy
huh?
Can it run without adding water? I just want it to vacuum
Yes! It has 2 dustbins so you can just use the full one without the mopping and just vacuum!
Why can that robot mop also
Yes it can mop!
I have one, it’s not working with free WiFi in France.
I have so many questions! 😂
I am in Canada btw. You need your personal wifi. That’s why i just got home internet for this vacuum
Yes, I found a way to connect with my personal wifi and it's OK, it works well👍👍
I know when I found a combo i5+
Great!
Hi there, nice video.. I was wondering.. how would you compare this to the ecoVacs T9+?
Very similar! The ECOVACS will have more advanced navigation, better mopping and cost a little less!
Awesome thanks a lot !
