Let the s9 handle the tough messes so that you can handle everything else —featuring PerfectEdge™ Technology, our most powerful cleaning system, and advanced features. With a single command to your Google Assistant or Alexa voice assistant like, “Tell Roomba to clean under the kitchen table,” it gets to work—when and where the messes happen. It even learns your cleaning habits and offers personalized schedules and recommendations during pollen and pet-shedding seasons. A specially designed Corner Brush and 40X the suction* pull in embedded dirt, dust, and pet hair from wherever it hides—for cleaning that fits seamlessly into your life.
Q: My rug has fringe. Will the Roomba get stuck?
A: It depends on how long and thick the fibers are. I have a throw rug that it always gets stuck on so I use the “keep out zone” feature to avoid it. My family room carpet is longer fibers, but not quite as thick and it has no problem.
Q: I know this Roomba doesn't include the Clean Base, but does it include a charging base? Thanks!
A: JetLaw, yes it does come with charging base.
Q: Two of the vacuums have a 40x suction. How much different in function does that really provide?
A: Its noticeable if you have had older models. The suction intensifies when it goes from floor (in my case tile) to carpet. It also picks up a larger amount of dirt than previous models. The brushes are a type of flexible plastic, which in some cases get stuck with longer threads and can tear. They're about 40-50 dollars for a replacement. The unit only comes with a spare side brush and filter.
A: Yes, the s9 has an included Home Base unit in the box. If you're thinking of the Clean Base unit (for automatic dirt disposal) that comes with the s9+.
Q: Does this model (S9) work with 220 Volt? or Is it only compatible with a 110 Volt AC? Thanks
A: Hi Pol - The model doesn't have dual-voltage. Just keep in mind (if it applies) that Roomba should only be used in the country in which it was purchased so the warranty isn't voided.
A: Yes, so long as you have the latest firmware update. The keep out zone feature works well.
A: iRobot Roomba vacuums can operate even with simple ambient light, but not in total darkness. What may help with either the i7 or s9 robots is to run a training mission and/or clean your floors with the closet light on until your floor plan map is complete. You can then label the closet as its own room so the Roomba can recognize it going forward.
Q: Can the charging base be placed 1.5 feet from a corner wall on one side?
A: It’s recommended that the Clean Base have at least 1.5 feet of space on each side and a minimum 4 feet of clearance in front of the charging plate (with the back flush against the wall) to allow the Roomba to properly dock and un-dock.
