Quick Take
The iRobot Roomba s9+ Robot Vacuum is iRobot’s most powerful cleaner. Its D-shaped body hugs skirting boards, a Clean Base handles dust for two months, and Imprint® Smart Mapping lets you send it to any room with a tap or a voice command.
Overview of Core Benefits
1. Flawless Corners and Edges
PerfectEdge® Technology teams a D-shape chassis with an angled corner brush, scooping debris ordinary round robots leave behind.
2. 40 × Power-Lifting Suction
A redesigned motor delivers up to 100 % more airflow than earlier high-end Roombas, lifting sand from deep carpet pile.
3. Self-Emptying Convenience
Each time the robot docks, the Clean Base pulls waste into a sealed bag that holds about 30 bins of debris—roughly 60 days for most homes.
4. Up to 120-Minute Runtime
A high-capacity lithium-ion pack keeps the s9+ cleaning for up to two hours before it returns to recharge and resume.
5. Room-Level Mapping
vSLAM® captures 230 k data points per second to build maps you name and edit in the iRobot Home app; you can draw Keep-Out or Clean Zones for precision.
