I've heard a lot of good things about the iRobot Roomba so i wanted to check it out and see if it was worth all the hype. The commercials do a great job at selling the item but, what's a real world experience like. In this video i go through a FULL week of using the Roomba every day. Here is my experience.

I LOVE my Roomba! I have 2 dogs that shed wicked. I do a thorough vacuuming on the weekend and let Roomba run every day. My house is SO much cleaner! Every so often it gets stuck on a mat (I get a text saying HELP I'm on a cliff- lol) but I highly recommend. Love coming home from work and seeing the little vacuum marks- so clean!

Our Roomba 650 we've had for three years still works great. The battery still lasts for almost 1.5 hours. We run it everyday, have a Golden Retriever and a cat so it's needed everyday. About once a week or two we run a Dyson DC25 for a onceover to get what Roomba misses .

650 owner here too. It gets the job done every day. I have a Husky at home and the 650 keeps the home really clean. it always finds the way back to the charging station and made whatever modifications around the house so it wouldn't get stuck. I noticed that sometimes it gets crazy and wont leave the charging station room and the Dock light turns on after a few minutes, but its because of all the hair on the brush, wheels and dirty sensor. I have to clean it out every day so it works properly.

I just bought my second Roomba, the first one was one of their First models quite a few years ago. I was Extremely happy with that one as it did everything that it was supposed to do. The one I just bought is the E5 model, and after a week of using it, I am AGAIN Extremely happy with it's performance. Needless to say, the new one has many advanced options with it, and performance has improved. I can NOT say enough GOOD things about the Roomba and the Company, i Robot.

I had one of the original Roomba's. It forced me to keep objects off the floor but it did pick up a lot of cat hair and kept the rug looking nice. However after a few months, it stopped working a few seconds after activation, no amount of cleaning or even buying a new battery pack helped. Hopefully these newer models will last longer.

Husband doesn't want me to spend the money for this. I live in a late 1800's Colonial with wood EVERYTHING, 2 dogs, 1 cat, 3 kids at home. Sweeping is a DAILY need. However, I only sweep the entire house about 2 times/week. Mop once a week, and the mopping is usually only in high traffic areas and the bathrooms (3) . In reality, it needs sweeping every MF day. We could probably get away with mopping 1x/week in the fall only. Shit is a real struggle, especially in the NE where I live. 4 Seasons, and all the 4 seasons of different BS that get dragged into the house. Anyway, I'm about to just buy this for myself seeing that I am the sweeper in this relationship. Yo, if I can find a mopping ROOMBA...MY LIFE WILL BE A DREAM. A DREAM!!!!! I work 48 hours/week.. Between regular mother $hit and job $shit and wife $hit my personal self-life is in shambles. I wish I didn't need to spend all my free time keep these raggedy ass wood floor clean. Man, I just saved like 2 hours city commute time during rush hour, a parking fee, and an insurance Co-pay to just share this here instead of at a professional therapist. It was free. Amazing.

I have a 680 and I run it every day and at first had to empty the vaccum bin once a day but now I can get away with about once every three days. It will not run on shag carpets and you can not have anything on the floor like slippers or shoes as the vaccum can suck up the slippers or shoe laces and become stuck. Also running it every day we have noticed that it smashes so hard into things that it is taking the paint off the front of itself and also along the skirting boards on the walls and also likes to get stuck under the sofa and has cut a mark into the wall with the side brush but over all I still love it as I never have to vaccum myself even though it can hardly ever find the charging base lol. 😊

That is why I got rid of carpets. You have no idea how much dust and hair they can hold. I now have 2,000 sq feet of solid surface, and run my Roomba 980 about twice a week. With two cats, living on the beach I have never come close to that amount of hair and dust. I also use my cordless Dyson like Steve and again, not half the amount hair and dust. I love the softness and warmth of carpets but I will never go back.

I've got a 600 series I picked up on sale for 250$. Get the cheapest one. I like using it every day. If it misses an area today, it will get it tomorrow. Cleans under the beds and furniture. You still need a vacuum cleaner for the stairs. Turn it on when you leave the house or out in your garden. Put it upstairs, when you are downstairs or vice versa and you won't even notice it. A robot is vacuuming while you are doing something else or nothing. It's working right now, when I'm watching this video and commenting. No brainer.

that's just how they are. Unless it gets close enough to read the home charger they will do this. It could get better over time as it does the same sort of pattern and it might learn where it is but I wouldn't hold my breath. They do need a good cleaning once in a while. One thing I found is if you end up taking it apart which I have, the gearbox even gets stuff in it. The gears in the one I had were made out of some kind of plastic and will wear out over time. If you can get the right size gears you can fix it. Take pictures so you know what goes where if you do take it apart. They are not the end-all vacuum. They just don't have great suction but will keep the place looking better and somehow always finds stuff you miss when doing a normal vacuum. In a way, it's really just a glorified carpet sweeper. So you still need to vacuum the old way once in a while. If you have hardwood or tile floors then that might not be necessary. Still, it's not the end all. Personally, I like them as they always find stuff that's been missed.

Hi there. Can i please ask you a question? I can't find this info in the manual. Once my roomba goes to base, the green light on the base comes on and then it goes off! Also all the lights on the unit itself goes off... So i don't know if it is charging or it is defective. Is it supposed to do this? I thought the green light on tbm base would always stay on. Thanks.

Hi Yara, mine does the same thing. You should be fine.

@@SteveDOES ​ louididdy thank you for the answer. yeah... glad mine is fine. but this is a very weird feature. the led on the base should show the status of the unit. having to press on the button or look on the cell is stupid. i want to walk by and see. i think they could have done it this way. or have at least a way to turn on and off this feature. but anyway, thank you!

Yara Brandao mines in the corner of an upstairs bedroom so I never see it and just use the app for status. But I agree, it would be nice to be able to turn that light on or off through the app settings.

I would imagine it is some sort of energy saver feature they use since the base is plugged in 24/7.

I have had mine for 6 months. it works terrific! I have 2 cats and 2 dogs, all who shed. Roomba does a good job picking up dirt and hair both on carpet and hard floors. I use it often since I have 4 pets. The Roomba is very easy to keep the moving parts clean so it operates a max efficiency. It is a wonderful device.

I have 2 cats, no carpet. The carpet collects and stores pet hair until you die haha. I run my roomba when when I'm home cooking or working on my computer, I love it. I agree with you might need a cheaper vacuum for those hard to reach places or quick spot cleaning, but I'm not longer manually running my vacuum daily like I once was. Yes daily, with no carpet to collect my the cat hair, it just floats around my wood floors like tumbleweeds.

690 Screens have icons so the clean button only lights up green and turns off to black. This screen is kinda like for 700’s and 800’s which I have a 690 and I had it stuck the amount of times.

Even if leaves edges and corner, most filth in carpets is in the middle areas anyways... so it can clean that part and cleaning edges is only 5% of the total vacuuming... good review... :-P

Hard to say until you test it. I found that the Eufy 30c can take on elevation shifts like my shag rug.

I’ve learned that the Dyson stick doesn’t clean carpets as well as a normal vacuum especially with pets. The stick doesn’t have enough suction power to get all the dander and fur out of the fabric of the carpet. Also, carpet is icky lol!! So much dirt gets stuck in it and no vacuum can fully clean it out.
