How the 8 iRobot families here actually differ
These are not marketing tiers. Each group below behaves differently under diagnosis, which is why a procedure written for one does not transfer to another, and it is the first thing to settle before following any fix.
iRobot Roomba; mapping, obstacle avoidance, self-emptying and mop functions vary.
- Roomba j9/j9+ robot vacuum j9, j9+
- Roomba j7/j7+ robot vacuum j7, j7+
- Roomba Combo j7+ Combo j7+
- Roomba s9/s9+ s9, s9+
- Roomba i7/i7+ i7, i7+
- Roomba i5/i5+ i5, i5+
- Roomba 600 Series 614, 675, 692, 694
iRobot Braava jet m6 — a mopping robot with no vacuum motor, no brush roll and no filter; it sprays and mops only.

Structured depth, not empty permutations
Every published record carries a direct answer, scope, ordered fixes, risk notes and sources.
Device and manufacturer hubs share a consistent record system, but each answer carries the relevant controls, fault boundaries, consequences and official support entry point for that platform.
