Practical option to keep the floors clean

Very practical way to keep the floors clean. Takes some time to set up the map and run it a couple of times, then you can define the room/breaks and name them to then program a schedule. Carpets with long fibers it gets stuck to either very low carpet or just floors.
So it does take time to start enjoying the benefit of using the Roomba to keep the house clean

On the fence with this 105

I hesitated purchasing this Roomba over the standard 600/700 series that I am familiar with... and, at this point, I think I should have gone with what I know. This 105 model is for our second home. Our 6 year old 600 (or 700?) series is still running strong... we do not use the app for that model as it wouldn't connect with our wifi.
This 105 seems to do a great job in 1 of the 4 rooms it initially mapped out upon startup. However, in my most heavily used room (by me and my dog) this 105 finds ways to get itself stuck in the most peculiar places, amd therefore has not completely vacuumed this room no matter how many times I have programmed it to do!
The app is not very user friendly... can be confusing to set routines in particular areas and then stops you from doing so because of a timeframe conflict... even if the time between cleaning is 3 hours apart from the next scheduled clean! I find the app to be more annoying to use, and I consider myself to be pretty agile in technology.
Regardless, I am giving this 105 a try in the hopes we can somehow get along and agree that in my one room, which it seems to not like, we can find a way to just get it fully vacuumed without any hiccups!
Suction seems to be overall good and sucks up what it needs to, including the dog bowl mat.
My main complaints are the app and total coverage map not being met in some of the mapped out rooms.
Right now I regret not going with the original model.

Overall I like this Roomba. It is a great price. It is much quieter than other older models. The trash bin is also a good size. It seems to do a good job picking up dog hair.

Picks up lots of dog hair and returns to the charger better than another name brand we owned previously.

For what this costs it does its job phenomenally! Setting routines is easy it sucks up everything you put in fromt of it and its not too loud that itll wake you up!

It does a great job, sometimes too good that it finds any loose wire, shoelace, or string. I find it gets stuck a bit more than other versions however does a great job.

This is what we have needed for far too long. I even tried a swifter dusting cloth behind it to see, almost clean due to the fact I went up under the couch where it can not reach!

Everything is all good from a cleaning process, but the ability to adjust cleaning times and dynamically adjust areas to clean is much needed. The knew software is kinda useless

So far love it. I had one for 10 yrs prior that went under furniture to get dust bunnies and this one doesn’t so I will do more research but so far love it. I am a single mom with a son and dogs and need all the help I can get and this helps. Set it for when I am not home and love coming home to a clean floor

Cleans well. Only problem is it turns itself on randomly. We have it programmed for two day a week cleaning but it comes on on its own at random times sometimes. Not a good thing when purchased for an elderly family member.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my daughter since she requested one. Of course she hasn’t gotten it yet but I have a Roomba and I am very happy with it. I’m assuming this will work even better than the one I have.
