iRobot Roomba Combo j7+
iRobot Roomba Combo j7+ — about $380 · ≈4.3★ · Blind pick for floors that clean themselves — vacuums and mops, empties itself into the base for 60 days, and app plus Alexa or Google voice control means you never touch the robot after setup day.
The blind-shopper angle: setup is the one sighted-help moment (the mapping run); after that it's 'Alexa, tell Roomba to clean the kitchen.' The self-empty base means you handle dirt six times a year instead of sixty. The j7's obstacle avoidance is the blind-household feature — it steers around cords, shoes, and pet waste instead of eating them. The iRobot app works with VoiceOver for schedules and maps.
Versus the j7 vacuum-only (cheaper) — the Combo adds the mop pad for hard floors. Versus Roborock (stronger raw specs, weaker app accessibility) — iRobot's app and voice ecosystem is the safer blind pick. This is the closest thing to hiring a housekeeper for $380.
