Community Reviews

This refurbished Roomba j7 plus is a self emptying robot vacuum best known for strong pet hair pickup and obstacle avoidance. Long term use reports it handling cat and dog hair, dusty homes, and wall to wall carpet well, with generic bags and parts easy to find. The mapping can take a long time, and some units arrive defective, miss parts, fail to charge, or struggle with routing, Wi Fi, and docking. It suits buyers who want Roomba cleaning behavior and can tolerate refurb risk.

  • Pet owners with cat or dog hair on hard floors, because refurb units can run reliably for years and keep floors clean with only occasional brush jams from toys.

  • Households with dusty, carpet-heavy rooms and long-haired occupants, because the robot handles heavy debris well and the base bags and replacement parts are cheap and easy to find.

    dwayned

  • People who want a self-emptying robot for unattended cleaning, because it can run while they are away and still deliver strong object avoidance and solid mechanics.

  • Buyers who want a trouble-free refurb, because units can arrive defective, missing parts, or unable to power on and may require support or returns.

  • Shoppers who need a robot that maps and routes quickly, because this model can take far longer to finish a room than competing vacuums.

    pastaboy30Monarz

  • People who expect dependable long-term operation, because some units develop battery-detection errors, constant problems, or the red-ring failure state.

    CaspertooProfh

  • Homes where the robot must reliably dock and stay connected, because it can shut off, lose Wi‑Fi, and fail to return to the charging base.

I ordered last week and when received it was missing the battery. Called support and they sent me a replacement. Seems to be working well so far but if I knew it was this much trouble I would have bought a roborock from Amazon.

Great price, but I would advise against buying one. I my last 2 roombas included an i6 broke really quickly. It also worked really slowly compared to the Roborock I just bought from Costco. The Roborock finishes cleaning in 15 minutes, the Roomba took an hour. Roomba also just filed for bankruptcy. https://www.npr.org/2025/12/15/nx...bankruptcy

Product: I got one of these in 2023 (paid retail minus a coupon) and liked it so much that I took a chance on an Amazon refurb ($300?) for my other floor and that was working so well i bought a second refurb. They're all still doing great. The mapping took forever, but the object avoidance and mechanics are LEGIT. we have long haired pets, long haired people, and live in a dusty part of the country and way too much wall to wall carpeting but these machines take care of business. They run when we leave the house and the air quality has never been better. They are work horses and while I've yet to replace a brush in three years, generic parts and bags for the base are cheap and readily available. J series is fire. I series is not as good so do not confuse the two.

Store and Price: Nah. Tech drops in price but this is too low. Like scam low. If it were Amazon? Sure. But eBay? I don't know man. I just don't know.

Bout a refurb a few years ago. Had an issue not sucking things up. They sent a new motor which was simple to install. Worked flawless after that. Liked it so much I bought another refurb for upstairs! No problems with that one.

Bought the j5+ few months ago. Numerous problems, turns off every 2 mins, even after meticulous troubleshooting. Wifi cuts off, robot often doesn't make it back to charger base. Needless to say, this has been an absolute headache.

I have an old one of these. Still works, sort of, just started the red ring of death and may be dead as of a few days ago. Its dumber than a sack of hammers, and bumbles into everything. Old old outdated tech. I have a Dreame x40 ultra that has some AI to map and avoid poop for one thing. There is a reason sadly iRobot filed for bankruptcy. They make nothing good right now. Absolutely any company makes so much better robots. And yes the bumbling into your furniture leaves marks. My roomba cleans a mostly empty room and still gets stuck. Friends don't let friends buy roombas.

OOOoooo I just learned even a newer reason not to buy irobot. It sends images back to it's company to determine what an obstacle is. The company, iRobot, will have pictures of the inside of your home. 🤔

There's literally nothing wrong with Ebay, and it goes this low often on Official Ebay Vendor Stores and woot.
