iRobot Roomba Vacuum 2 Essential Robot with AutoEm

Perfect For the Price Point, a Pet Owners Must have
I have 3 dogs that have a doggie door. To pick up all the debris they bring in, I use this Roomba almost everyday. It’s basic and I have not used the wireless feature yet, but also don’t see a need, so I can’t comment on that. What I love is having a vacuum robot like the Jetzens! Yay for technology! I have a few minor dislikes: It could be quieter, it misses dirt, and I do not like cleaning it. I spilt flour on the flour and it didn’t pick it up no matter how many times I coaxed it back. It gets stuck and can’t find its way back out of a few places like, under the sofa, between the legs of one of my tables, on the pedals of my piano, and 2 places under the cabinets. That said, it doesn’t do that every time. Emptying the dust compartment can be messy, as well as, cleaning the twisted threads & hair off of the rollers that needs scissors and a pry tool to clean. It’s time consuming. Also, don’t throw away your broom and dustpan yet, you’ll need it to clean the spots it misses. Right now it’s vacuuming under the sofa I’m sitting on and has found its way back out, it headed to the aforementioned table as I write and is not getting stuck. It also finds things like the back of my remote control. It will chipper as it scoots things around to alert you of it’s findings. It’s powerful and I’ve found it on top of my piano pedals diligently trying to clean them. That’s powerful! I also have another basic model from years back that still works and yes, I run both at the same time. The older model is not as effective or powerful. A few days ago, I noticed the bristles on the edge cleaner brush were completely broken off and the wheel was damaged. A quick, same-day prime delivery offered replacement parts at a ridiculous low cost & easy fix. It’s great at this price point, I spent double for the first model I bought about 7 years ago.

Excellent
It was finicky in the beginning, but it went fine eventually the next use.If battery is down to 25 percent, better to press pause in your Ap then it will give you the option to ‘return home.’.It will ‘finish up’ and may take a little while, but it will eventually return, then empty itself.If you run the battery out, it will die and not make it back to its port. You can then proceed to vacuuming again after it recharges..The port hole jarred once,. The Ap will tell you that too. So I had to clear up. It was a ball of hair but was easy to remove right at the mouth of the opening.If the vacuum gets stuck in a certain area, the Ap will tell it too. Great product so far.We’re enjoying it. My dog plays with it but I try to supervise and stop him. Now he just enjoys watches it at least I think.

I am really impressed with this Roomba., we have a large basement with several rooms with hardwood floors and one with carpeting. I just opened the appropriate doors and off it went. Not at all noisy, the volume does increase depending on the setting. I have been running it at the medium setting and it cleans the whole area in one charge – roughly 1200 sq ft. It does take a little while but it is persistant, it will come back and hit an area that I thought it had missed, observing it closely, it covered the whole area. it goes up and down over areas that are 1/2″ high with no trouble…. very pleased.

Hace justo lo que quería, liberarme tiempo de aseo; deja bastante limpio, no he necesitado barrer mas que puntualmente desde hace tres semanas (incluso con un chihuahua y un pastor alemán). Cosas a cosiderar: hay que revisar el cepillo giratorio del frente cada que se usa porque se enreda con cabellos largos y se puede atascar, pero se limpia muy fácil. La potencia de la aspiradora y tamaño de los cepillos permite que se aspiren objetos largos y flexibles como collares para perro y cables de cargadores telefónicos, que pueden atascarlo; y las llantas principales pueden subirse a objetos que en primera instancia parecerían inofensivos; asi que hay que despejar muy bien el piso, basicamente si fueras a barrer y pudieras moverlo con la escoba, hay que quitarlo. Tambien ya que este modelo aspira aleatoriamente, entre más pequeño el espacio, lo limpia más rápido y mejor, asi que ayuda delimitar áreas, por ejemplo las mías aproximadas son: cocina(12 m2), comedor+sala+recibidor (55 m2), pasillo (12 m2), habitaciones (24 m2).Considerando que barrer a mano toma mi tiempo, es cansado, y me hace sudar; lo recomiendo mucho.
