How we reached each verdictThe numbers behind each model's score
iRobot Roomba j7+
Nine hands-on expert reviews agree the j7+ is among the smartest robot vacuums, with standout camera-based obstacle and pet-waste avoidance, giving it an expert score of 84. Owners are cooler at 60: 26% praise its cleaning and 19% its navigation, but 18% mention failures, 10% say it broke or died, and 12% complain about customer support, which pulls reliability down to 56. Experts split on carpet cleaning, and several note weak edge cleaning, a loud self-empty cycle and roughly 75 to 86 minutes of battery life. With 421 owner comments and about 8,500 Amazon ratings averaging 3.8 stars, the evidence is broad. Long-term durability data rests mostly on owner anecdotes and one multi-year expert report of a battery replacement after about two years.
Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Pro
All 3 expert reviews are hands-on, and all agree it is a strong vacuum, especially on carpets and rugs, with an average expert score of 77. Owners are slightly warmer (81): of 120 comments, 30% praise suction and 26% praise mopping, while only 6% complain about mopping and 6% mention a failure, which supports a reliability score of 86. The experts are harsher than owners on mopping, with 2 of 3 reporting smears or weak stain removal, and all 3 flag poor detection of small objects. The evidence is thin in places: there are only 3 expert reviews, no Amazon data, confidence is medium, and Tom's Guide noted the US launch was not yet available, so there is no confirmed US price.
