Nursed my old 500 series Roomba along for as long as I could, but it finally gave up the ghost in spite of maintenance and TLC (Roombas are very easy to buy and install new parts on). Researched slightly newer models and decided on one. Found what I wanted at a very good price here. Item arrived quickly and was as described. Thrilled with some of the new features since I last purchased one.

I'm so disappointed with this. I've been hoping for years to get a robot vac, and this is just... sad. The best way I can describe its performance is like a "carpet hoky" / "carpet and floor sweeper", which I could have gotten for a lot less money. - It keeps getting itself stuck, which is baffling b/c I'm sitting there thinking "well, you got yourself in there... you should be able to get yourself out!" - At least twice now, it has gone into areas I explicitly had marked as "keep out" zones. - It won't dock reliably, which goes back to basic theory of "you got yourself out of there, you should be able to get yourself back in!" It's like watching a drunk try to park a car. - It also leaves a bunch of debris around it's own base; so basically it doesn't clean up after itself. - This doesn't always pick up all the stuff on the floor - and no, it's not an absurd amount of dirt or debris, nor is the bin full or the filter dirty. - I have to assist it all the time, e.g. it thinks it's stuck in an open area, or it thinks it's wheel is stuck on specific part of the rug where there is literally nothing there (believe me, I have checked repeatedly). - One day the "smart map" just decided on its own to delete a room divider that had been there for over a month. Worst of all, iRobot "support" has been giving me the runaround. They don't understand what I'm saying, I have trouble at times understanding what they're saying, and they just fobbed me off by telling me I just need to give it more time to "learn." Yeah. It's had almost 2 months now, and it's actually getting worse. They don't care that I am spending loads of time just to get them on the phone, and then having to repeat myself over and over of what's wrong, etc. I do actually have other things to do. They don't respect me or my time. I feel really duped and cheated. I guess I should have listened to myself when I thought "hmmm... seems iRobot is not selling this model at all anymore; that seems odd". Thanks a lot for the rip off, iRobot.Read full review

This is a great product if it works reliably. It does a good job cleaning the house and navigating from one room to another. BUT... I had to return the first unit because it kept displaying hardware errors. Now the replacement unit also started showing hardware errors from time to time in the iRobot application and sometimes does not start until I close and open the app again. If the problem persists I may have to return this unit, unfortunately.

This Roomba pickes up the dirt much better than the orignal Roomba that I had. My only complaint was in the instructions provided to get it started, especially getting it to talk to my iphone was a little hard to find. Other then that, it does a much better jod cleaning our floors. I opted not to get the cleaning station. It just means empting out the waist every couple of days. The advantage to this is that you can shake out the air filter which makes it last longer.

Maintaining the home just got easier. My i7 does a very efficient job cleaning areas that need regular vacuuming. Very happy with my purchase. I would definitely recommend Roomba products.
