Darn thing is a Bit noisy . Ran an hour on a charge. Bought for Momma to take all the stress of pushing around a vacuum. Sheesh.

Roomba is learning it's way around the house. It works great. Hopper needs to be larger or I need less dogs shedding. Lupe' s job is on the line. Guess there is a robot out that cleans windows. Humm??

Well an update on Roomba. She went nuts, started spinning in place, totally lost her mind. Called the hotline to Roomba and they have been great. Sent me some wheel modules thinking one motor died. I installed, all the time marveling at its engineering design. Well Roomba only became a quieter nut case. So back on the phone, they said, "We will send you a new core unit".

Have another brand, Neato. Several years now and no problems. I use if on the 2nd level of the hse. Does a decent job of cleaning. I always run it 2x over each room every week. I would not give it up.

My wife bought one a few years ago. It worked for a while and then the problems started.
They sent us a few parts and kept getting suck in corners, etc. Didn't clean like a real vacuum does. We finally decided to throw it in a closet.
The ad sounded good but it's a piece of junk!!

Just got an email. New unit on its way. They have a one year warranty. We will see how long the replacement lasts.

Can't wait til you are forced into ordering your unhappy meals at a McRoomba kiosk....LOL
...might be more fun than watching all the action at a Sat. morning boat launch.

I am all for it. Sick of some pimple faced kids screwing up my order and demanding $15 an hour. Stay focuses here.

Roomba pulled thru, they sent me the model 700 as an upgraded replacement for my model 500. Way smarter and quieter. At no extra cost.

Roomba 2 did not do water well. Cooked the control pad. Just wants to clean the house all the time. Sprinkled water on momma without same results..
