Now We Are Two

We just bought our second Roomba, with a self-emptying bin. We moved the first Roomba upstairs (because it wasn't time to decommission it yet; it's five years old but it still does a terrific job picking up the Labrador's hair--even--especially--under the beds)! I love them both and I can't imagine life without them. I'd have to go back to pushing the vacuum around every day... no way.

You've come a long way baby!

I bought my first one in 2012. It would bounce around and did a fair job. Lots of days looking for it because it didn't return to port. This new one is such an improvement! It does not constantly bounce off furniture. It systematically cleans with a definite pattern that cleans the entire area! Love it!

Love my upgrade!

I upgraded my Roomba and am very pleased with it. Has really helped being able to map the rooms.

Does the job

Excellent vacuum! I upgraded from the older model Roomba to the self emptying and I'm sorry I waited so long! We have two dogs and two cats and does the job for a daily run in between my weekly vacuuming.

NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART

Not what I would recommend to people who do not have an "above average" cell phone/modem understanding. Once installed and after having two "simpler" iRobot Roomba vacuums, I think I like its cleaning and emptying capabilities better.

It's ok

It keeps glitching half way though the job, doesn't seem to vacuum with any semblance of order which makes it take longer, and is equal to loudness of regular vacuum. If you schedule it to vacuum while everyone is out, it's nice. But if you work from home, expect it to go all day long to do whole house.

Too complicated to use by older person

Bought as a gift to my 85 year old mother. She says it is too sophisticated for her. The fact that you have to use the phone to use it, makes it complicated for her. I'm returning it.

Not really impressed

Don't recommend for carpets or dog hair on carpets

Hi Robin, we are really sorry to hear about the situation. This is definitely not the experience we want our iRobot family to have, and we'd love the opportunity to turn it around. We have just e-mailed you in order to help out.

Not worth the money

Not Smart At All! The device repeatedly got stuck on furniture - yes, the SAME furniture - so any illusion of it “learning” or “remembering” is just that - an illusion. If u have bare floors with NO Obstructions - u might like this device. It does little to nothing on carpets (I can vacuum immediately after and get an entire canister FULL of what it leaves behind). It didn't even get the easy surface “crumbs”. Also, if u have ANY stairs or a change in level, it can only map one area or the other, NOT BOTH. So it can do a terrible job in only half of my house 🤣. Don't waste your money!

Cleans great but factory defect

Robot mapping and cleaning works great. Robot kept telling me I needed to install a battery. Battery should be installed from the factory so I returned it. No problem returning it to the store.
