321 customers mention "Ease of use"193 positive128 negative

403 customers mention "Stickiness"30 positive373 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the stickiness of the robotic vacuum cleaner. They say it gets stuck in small areas and shuts down. Some customers also mention that it gets lost and gets stuck.

I used to have one of these years ago and I thought since it was prime days I'd try it again. Works fairly well but it is not a substitute for swiffer and vacuum on wood floors. Gets some of the main debris brought in from outside, but it does get hung up between chairs and table legs. Doesn't go in a straightforward motion all the time. kind of a hills and valleys pattern to its motion. Also today when I tried to get it to go home via the app, it's shut off several times- I had to manually push the home button on the unit. Even then it stopped twice. I picked it up and pointed it towards the docking station then pushed the home button and it worked. Not sure why? I am going to have to do some digging on troubleshooting -didn't see anything in the manual initially. I guess it will be all right for a "helper" named it Berta

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.

 I have been wanting an automatic vacuum for quite some time but was hesitant that it would actually clean good. I still have to learn how to use this and see if I can set boundaries with this model but straight out of the box and not even fully charged for my first use (I would recommend charging it the full 3 hrs. as suggested, I accidentally started it and let it go!) it did great. The photos are from running two days in a row and as you can see the dirt bin is full so it is definitely cleaning. I’m hoping I can program it better because right now it seems to be all over the place and it doesn’t fully get one area before moving on to the next and it misses some trash/dirt since it is sporadic. I will update on that after I’ve learned how to use it! I’m happy with this purchase as of now. If you don’t want to clean the bin every day or two I would recommend getting the self emptying model. I just wanted to try the basic vacuum for now and see if it was worth it. I am a professional cleaner and so I have high expectations and so far this has met my needs. It has some “sweeper legs” that get in corners or edges like under counters and sometimes it does miss stuff but I know it is working as I have to empty the dirt bin frequently. It’s making my life a little easier! We named ours Dusty! It is not too loud but if your on a phone call it’s best to go to another room as it can be a little distracting. I set mine to go off at 12 pm every day and like clock work Dusty comes out and goes to work!
The app was super easy to set up and like I said I am still learning and hope to set up specifics if I can with this model.
The only issue I have had so far is that it will get stuck on a couple of my rugs. They are thick rugs so one it just stops and the alarm goes off for an error that it could not move. The other rug it says it is near a cliff lol! It isn’t that high of a rug but it is higher than the hard wood floors I have. I just move it and press start. It is a little aggravating but nothing too bad. I’m home all the time so I can move it but if I wasn’t I’m not sure if I could do anything from the app (again, still learning!)
Also, make sure cords are picked up and if you have any sticky bug traps I’d move them because the little sweeper legs have gotten stuck to mine and I had to pull it off.

Other than those two things I am loving my automatic vacuum and I recommend it his product. If I remember I will update my review after I’ve had it for a while longer!

Pros:
Cleans carpet and hardwood great, it even detects large pieces and does a little circle to make sure it gets it. It was able to climb from the floor onto a thick carpet, and over door thresholds. The suction is actually really good, and the little spinning sweeper helps it out with corners and the edges. The run time is about 1.5hrs, and it can get all the big areas of our house, but bedrooms, dining room need a touch up with the actual vacuum.

Cons:
this thing is the cheapest iRobot branded vacuum, so don’t expect much. It’s not laser guided, ai enhanced like the expensive ones, it has a sensor on top and the front is a big button that gets pressed when it bumps into things. You have to clean up a little bit before you run it, because it gets cought on charging cords, string, paper, basically anything the size of a straw is going to jam it up. It also struggles to find its home, when you end its job, it keeps cleaning until it gets within 5 feet of the base, then docks itself. The pattern is very random, and it just kinda bounces from wall to wall, so it’s not very efficient.

Overall it’s a great little machine, it’s definitely cut down the amount of cleaning we have to do, and it’s good if you want to try it out without buying a 900 roomba or a crappy Chinese one

I recently purchased the iRobot Roomba 694 robot vacuum, and it exceeded all my expectations in terms of price and quality. For its cost, it offers excellent performance, efficiently cleaning dust and debris throughout the house. It’s easy to use and set up, and the ability to control it via the app makes it even more convenient. Definitely worth the money!

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.

Product, works as expected. Simple to use , seems durable , a bit noisy but this is an entry level machine so it’s expected. I have had it now about 3 weeks and am satisfied with its performance.

We have two white-haired dogs who shed hair constantly, creating 'drifts' around the house.

Pros:
Our floors are 90% wooden with some small carpeted areas and a little lino and the Roomba has no problems with any of them. It handles changes in levels between the older and newer sections of the house and deals with obstacles like chair legs and kids' shoes very well. We've had no problems with it picking up any objects or cables yet, though it is advisable to clear the floor of anything small, like LEGO.

Cons:
It is a lot noisier than I expected. The Roomba is designed to work when you're not in the house. It also takes a long time to return home if instructed - like 10+ minutes, but that might be a learning issue.

It's early days, we've only had it for a few days, but it works as described.
