My neighbour's girlfriend said I was 'asking for a smack in the face' by getting my girlfriend a Roomba for Christmas. Her reaction to opening it was completely different to what she predicted. 'OH WOW! YOU GOT ME A ROOMBA!' and when I told her that my neighbour's girlfriend had predicted the complete opposite reaction from her she said 'Tell her it's a Breaking Bad thing!'.

I totally like this Roomba🌼 I had the older version of it and this one is definitely smarter. While the old one would randomly go around the room hoping to cover all the area after a certain number of hours, this one is better at remember where it’s been and where it needs to go.

I have seen cats driving the robots. Does it come with a cat or do I need to purchase it separately?

At 0:21, after Roomba goes by the dust, you can notice that the image of the place where the dust was manipulated.

If you stop exactly at 0:25, you can see that the same texture and marks of the rug repeat twice.

Why would they need to manipulate the image, so we can't see the true results?

I like iRobot, i am a big fan of roombas. we used to have a roomba 980 but it unfortunately stopped working ☹️. But we now have a roomba 960 and i always professionally take good care of it and we schedule it twice a week. Im so grateful for my roomba 😊.

Great! Now I just need a robot to clean the toilets, make the beds, and every other chore I have!

[TimeWisely]

Me: *places a box right on the floor just to troll the roomba*

[greatkingrat]

I have one. It’s great! Also it doesn’t set off the home alarm sensors so you can leave it going while you’re out and the house is alarmed.

I have had many Roomba units since the first little Red one I bought for $29.95. I now own an 890. My Cat used to decide the floor was dirty, sometimes thanks to him being outside, and could hit the Clean Button on his own to clean up.

If I could only get him to empty the bin !

I can't tell if it it charging because pulsing light goes off. Also, green battery color isn't solid green, and I am thinking is the battery full or not?? This is a little confusing. 😼

Hello iRobot from owner of Roomba 625 Pro model which dies after 6 years of use ... I have one idea for You .. You need to add Roomba possibility to be connected to IPHONE so We can say Roomba clean bedroom, or Roomba Clean Kids Bedroom so You have to make a way to program Rooms name when We first use Roomba (lets he draw all rooms, and let We name it after that) Tnx

Nice, so this one doesn't go in random patterns leaving ugly cross cross marks on the carpet like my 650?

finally! they put Neato navigation system on a Roomba. What a strange hybrid this is. Problem is that latest Neato is half the price and probably works the same.
Also I wonder how will it clean effectively going once in every spot since all that propaganda that roomba cleans well since it goes over and over same spots?
So basically roomba is exactely like a Lg homebot or samsung Navibot (which cost 1/3rd)

[nikolaj]

I've got one, it's brilliant!

[terryflynn]

Has the docking system been improved. We've owned a Roomba for years and have had an ongoing problem with the docking....it just won't. We finally just threw it out

[alderusdmc]

Doesn't this model of Roomba need the lighthouses like my Roomba 780?

[Prairielander]

Does anyone think of the film "Batteries not included" when seeing these things? :D

[semplew]

Not good in a small home like mine, with stairs... lol! Too much dust under low furniture too.

[jacquelinemolestina]

Good one but the clean button doesn’t look like that on the app

[gadoladonai]

Now update it to fold clothes too, hate doing laundry
