This is my first robot vacuum and I am thoroughly impressed! I love the idea of the dust compactor since I don't have a lot of extra room for some of the larger docks. Easy set up using the quick start guide printed right on the box. After super quick mapping, my robot was out on its first mission to the kitchen and picked up all the crumbs, including flour I had dropped on the floor from dinner prep. I am loving not having to drag out the upright vacuum and do it myself. Even the kids are planning the next mission and watching the maps. I'm excited that I can get clean floors while spending time on something else.

I really liked one of my older versions of this robot. So I was super excited when I seen it, and couldn't wait for it to come to my house! I wasted a lot of time trying to program it to my app, because I was looking for a card that had the Scan code, but it was actually on a box inside the box it came in. I originally downloaded the iRobot app, and it wasn't the one for the particular robot I had. I have multiple products that does a lot of different things from the same company, and they're all on one app. I didn't have issues trying to get the robot to charge because it was dead when it arrived. After finally getting everything set up, and Bluetoothing it to my phone and Wi-Fi, I set up the rooms for it to clean and it was off! For the most part you've done a really good job with a deep cleaning feature, the problem is, I couldn't get it to go down the hallway where my front door is. I restarted and sent it off again, but for some reason it would not go down that entryway. Finally I ended up getting it to go down the entryway, that didn't have anything in it to block the robot from doing his job, but it just would not clean the entire floor. I delayed my review for an extra couple days to see if it was anything I was doing wrong, and I don't think it's me. I really hope whatever glitches they have in the app is updated and fixed, because I really love my older version of this robot, and I wanted to have one downstairs and one upstairs.

I'm a long-time Roomba owner and am happy with this purchase so far. I bought this as an upgrade for my 'experienced' 600 series robot and am impressed with the improved cleaning power after a few runs. The new mapping system took a fraction of the time to create a map of my house, and I love the new app where you can follow the path of the robot while it cleans.

Single Brush Failure

With three dogs and hair galore, my older Romba was being overwhelmed. This seemed perfect, but failed to pick up hair my older unit handled with ease, the difference is two brushes vs one.
