Pros: Sleek design, neat concept
Cons: Simply does not work
Summary: We bought this vacuum in the hopes of having a bit of extra "help" with cleaning our house. Boy, were we in for a surprise! The unit came nicely packaged and was easy to set up and prepare. Once we turned the unit on, however, it was readily ... read more

Pros: Saves you time (you don't have to vacuum). Good coverage. Fun toy.
Cons: Slow. Not good for spot cleaning or heavy cleaning; will not replace a regular vacuum.
Summary: We bought this on black friday for $90 at Sears. It is as much of a "toy" for us as a practical cleaning tool. All of our friends ask about it and want a demo We use it mostly on our laminate floors on which it does a pretty decent job. It is a ... read more

Pros: Push of a button and no hands vacuuming
Cons: It doesn't do windows :o).
Summary: I bought this Roomba for my parents and they love it and I love it. It is great for spot cleaning or set it free and let it roam around cleaning your room or house. The virtual walls are great and keep your Roomba confined, preventing it from getting ... read more

Pros: Good cleaning, under couch ability, fun to watch
Cons: not perfect at cleaning, needs to be emptied often, addictive
Summary: I have wanted a Roomba from the moment I heard about them. I purchased mine from HSN and I am very pleased with the unit. Now, I need to put you in the right mind set - this is NOT a total vacuuming solution. It is a helper - all carpet manufacturers and ... read more

Pros: Cleans well--a great product when it works.
Cons: Breaks down so frequently, it's best sold as a disposable vacuum. Customer service is terrible.
Summary: I purchased a Roomba sage in April, 2005. Between then and March, 2007, I had multiple service problems. The vacuum must be cleaned at least once a week in order to maintain function. In cleaning, it's easy to lose a tiny plastic bearing that belongs ... read more

Occasionally needs to be rescued.

Pros: None
Cons: Weak performance, defective batteries, non-existent customer support, fraudulent warranty.
Summary: We purchased one last April (07). It did an "OK" job of cleaning, a bit like a weak old 70s style vacuum. The battery failed after about nine months. After a week of hassle trying to get iRobot to honor the warranty, for which we had our dated sales
