This is my third robot in 25 years. My first one lasted quite a while and it was similar to this one in that it had brushes rather than those rubber things which I hate. The second one was exactly that -rubber things! Moreover the second one couldn’t find its way home to the base I always had to pick it up and put it there because it would get stuck somewhere and run out of power. It also cost more than the other two. This latest 690 whenever it is …Is perfect for my liking. You don’t have to deal with expensive filters all the time. It has a simple filter that is washable and the they been of course is washable too. Yes it runs for quite a while but I’d rather have it run and do my whole place then be missing some. It does charge quickly and finds its way home. You don’t have to have all the bells and whistles and it takes no time to empty and clean out the bin and the filter.

I got this on a Black Friday sale thinking I would never use it or would return it but it has been a godsend. I call it my toddler because you do have to do some prep work before running it. You have to clear wires off the floor, or move anything breakable because it will run right over it or into it. But once you clear the floor of any obstructions, this thing works great. When I was moving out of my old apartment, I let it run in the lower level for 35 minutes. When I came back, it looked like it had been professionally vacuumed. Definitely worth the splurge or wait until Black Friday for the sale!

The media could not be loaded.
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.

I have two German Shepherds…. Which equals a lot of fur… therefore we have four roombas. Yes FOUR. The roomba on the right is the first one I’ve ever owned. It was great. They don’t seem to make that one anymore and I wasn’t a fan of the second one that now lives in our basement…so I bought this one, the one on the left, recently to help keep up with the fur. This one does seem to get stuck under furniture more than the other two… however it gets over things better, runs quieter and vaccums both the carpet and hardwood just as well if not better. So…. I bought a second one haha. I highly recommend. I have all four scheduled to run every day, they work well with Alexa and I truly have no complaints. If I needed a fifth roomba I would 100% buy a third of this model, even if they still made the original one!

I love this unit so much that I bought another unit for upstairs. I also bought a brush replacement kit.
I don’t usually comment on stuff but simply impressed how simple it was to set up and download to my phone and my wife’s phone. We can be away and tell it to clean or set the time to start.
I strongly recommended this product… glad I got it at the special reduced price.

I live in an apartment with vinyl floors and was shocked at how quickly dirt, dust, and debris piled up. Sweeping felt like a full-time job. Enter the Roomba Essentials, my new cleaning buddy. It’s definitely not perfect, but it sure beats sweeping every. single. day.
I picked up the Roomba Essentials as an introduction to the world of Roomba, fully intending to upgrade later. As long as you know this isn’t the most advanced Roomba, you’ll manage your expectations and won’t be too frustrated by the occasional hiccup.
First off, its main job is to relieve you from daily vacuuming or sweeping duties, and it does just that. It connects to your smartphone, allowing you to start it, set a schedule, and send it home. It also gives you a handy map of where it’s been, so you can keep tabs on whether it missed a certain spot. It also comes with Google and Alexa functionality, so you can talk to your voice assistant and have it begin a job at your command.
But it won’t learn your home’s layout like the pricier models. You’ll still need to do a little prep work by clearing the floors: cords, shoes, or anything it might mistake for a light snack need to be hidden. Trust me, it has a weird appetite for power cords and phone chargers. . . .
It mostly manages to avoid big things like baseboards, doors, and anything low enough for it to sense directly in front of it. But when it comes to low hanging edges like the underside of the kitchen cabinets, or a piece of furniture with too low of clearance while still being strangely high enough to avoid its sensors? It’s more of a ‘bump and hope for the best’ kind of strategy. I’ve watched it play demolition derby with all sorts of different pieces of furniture or obstacles more times than I can count. But it’s never aggressive enough to mark anything up or cause any damage.
Despite the occasional confusion, it handles my 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment pretty well, and the battery lasts plenty long enough to finish the job on the highest suction level, assuming it doesn’t get stuck in some bizarre nook and cranny…
On the plus side, it’s quiet – much quieter than your standard upright vacuum. The only time it really raises its voice is to let you know it’s stuck or when it’s taken up that new hobby as a furniture boxer.
iRobot makes maintenance super easy. There are guides and repair manuals in the app, which is great. But replacement parts aren’t exactly cheap. The app will also tell you when something needs replacing, so you’re not guessing when to switch out a part.
If you’re expecting miracles, this little guy might fall a bit short. It’s the slightly more clumsy, budget-friendly cousin of the Roomba family. . .But if you’re looking for a reliable assistant to cut down on your daily sweeping and vacuuming, the Essentials does the job, quirks and all. Just be prepared for it to have a few “learning moments” along the way. . . .

So I haven’t owned a Roomba since I moved 5 years ago. This spring I bought a BoB and he was aweful, I ended up returning it. So we just bought a house with even flooring throughout and I thought I’d give this guy a shot. It was on sale for a great price and I thought I was taking my chances….nope, he is AWESOME!!!! He did not get caught on anything- ANYTHING!!!!! He does his job, finds his dock and there is one less thing for me to do in my busy day. We even have little bathroom mats next to our bed and he didn’t get jammed up in those. I am extremely happy with this purchase!!! Highly recommend, treat yourself- life is short!
