Oh yeah, I'm in love!! This is far,far better than I thought it could be. We have 3 cats and a husband who tracks crumbs everywhere. This thing is worth it just for picking up the cat hair under the beds and under the futon. We live in a small house and it is very difficult to get under the beds with a regular vacuum.
I am a vacuum freak and have about 5 different vacuums. I used to have to use a different one for the hard wood floors and the area rugs. Now , I just let the roomba take care of it all. You are still going to have to vacuum in the corners and the very small areas. (These to be done much less often.) The good thing is also , it forces me to pick up ALL things off of the floor. I only wish I could use it on the furniture and on the walls!!
My husband complains of the noise, but to me , it is just a reminder that it is doing the work I don't have to. It is much less noisy than a standard vacuum.
I have not yet used this unsupervised as I sometimes recognize I should have moved cords or other items in its way. Also, as another reviewer stated, it really does not go on the home base that easily.
This is right up there with the other most favorite thing I've ever purchased...the automatic bread maker. I love it, great for the kitchen and hardwood floors We call our roomba scheduler Rosie, and she works hard. We track in leaves and dog hair off our patio, so I let Rosie go at nite while we're in another room and she picks up grass, leaves, dog hair, crumbs, dust... I walk around barefoot a lot, and i never get little pieces of grit stuck to my foot after Rosie has been at work!
My house is small (about 1230 sq. ft) and I don't use her in the living room where there is deep plush carpet, even though I tried her in there and she worked, it takes much, much longer so I run the upright in there.
But she goes under furniture, under the bed and dresser, and those places are cleaner than they have ever been!
This is a great product and a time saver for me. It's one less chore I need to worry about and I love it! Roomba Va...vooom This is a great unit to clean up normal litter on the floors.Amazed how well it moves from Carpet to Hardwood floors without help. Doesn't eliminate regular vaccumm cleaners but reduces the need significantly. Better than I expected After the purchase, I actually vaccum less. It works really well. The only complaints are it is noise and the replacement parts are expensive. So turn it on when you go out and try not to break an parts..... Irobot ate my daughter's school project - But will NEVER go back to the old style vacuum My husband and son got together and thought I would just love an Irobot. I complained a bit that they ordered it...but would give it a try. They set it up quickly. In a few hours off it went....and it has been going every day for the past 3 months. What a great find! Never will I got back to the old style of vacuum. We have a cat which sheds some...but I have 3 kids who track in dirt daily. When I come home from work, I have a freshly vacuumed house. It finds its home base about 90% of the time. If it does not, it is usually our fault. The Irobot ate my daughter's school project she left on the floor - was repairable! It has eaten up many cat toys. It will go after anything you leave on the floor. No mercy! It does not nick the woodwork! So in the end....love, love love it!!! Never will I go back. Only quality issue - one of side brushes fell off...still worked great. You do need to empty the container each day...takes about 20 secs....you will be amazed the dirt it picks up each day...To think I was walking in the stuff for days.First time in history a child goes to school and says my robot ate my homework, not the dog!!! By the way I am a mechanical engineer...so passes my test!
