Customer Ratings & Reviews

My husband bought me the roomba and it works great. I have it sweep while we are at work and I come home to a clean floor. I actually have two roombas. I have one on each floor and three different floor surfaces (wood,tile and carpet). The roomba is able to sweep my area rugs as well. The roomba can be a bit noisy but not any different than a vacuum cleaner. You can’t get things clean without a little noise.

Love, love, love my Roomba. It is a life saver. I can schedule it to run at certain times or as needed. You can map out what areas need cleaned. It is so efficient. It goes back to the home base automatically when it needs to empty or recharge and will start back up to finish the job.

Works pretty well. With this odel you cannot direct the areas for it to clean--just goes where it wants, but cleans well where it goes. My WIFi modem had to be changed out and now the Roomba will no longer connect to the App. This is a major setback.

Great vacuum for the money. Does a great job getting almost everything. If you have the money, go up to the next model that maps your house - would be more efficient and effective in the long haul. We have black baseboards and this marks them up.

My old 600 series Roomba had failing sensors so I replaced it with this one. It still does a good job of getting my hardwood floors cleaned, but the rubber brushes the newer iRobot models use just do not do quite as good of a job of picking up fine dust particles as the older models with standard bristle brushes did. On the other hand, I think iRobot has improved their sensors. My old 600 series dinged up a lot of furniture legs by just ramming into them at full speed. This unit, so far, seems to do a better job of slowing down before contact. Also, as many have mentioned, the unit is extremely loud during self-empty. This only lasts a few seconds, however.

Love my roombie! It cleans up so well. I love the ease of the schedule and also how large the dust bin is.

But it keeps loosing connection. I like it when it is online and cleaning, in the country, service not too good. I wish i could just cut it on and it runs

I love having clean floors but hate vacuuming. I schedule the Robot to vacuum my 600 sq foot first floor every weekday morning. It’s pretty loud but my small dog got used to it quickly. Love the self-emptying feature. I just replaced the very nice bag for the first time after 15 months of use. It’s sturdy and didn’t leak any dust or dirt as I removed and disposed of it. The robot occasionally gets stuck due to a dog toy or something but mostly performs on its own with no help needed. I love the report on the app that shows where it cleaned which is helpful when it gets stuck and dies while I’m at work.

We were hesitant to jump into this area of smart life but haven’t had a regret since. Especially with three dogs in the house. Handles hard wood floors, rugs, and carpets easily. Floor vents, particularly our return air, present an occasional navigational challenge. Don’t be disappointed with a long run time the first few times out as it learns your home. The self-cleaning feature is outstanding

I’m very happy to have my new self-cleaning Roomba. We have 2 cats & while Roomba doesn’t do deep cleaning or get all the fur up from the rugs, it does a pretty good job and I’m happy to use it regularly. I bought 2 virtual walls & could probably use another.

Great product! Love it so much I bought a 2nd one. Just wish it had the mapping feature like the 7+, otherwise it's every bit as good as the more expensive older brother. MUCH better than the old ones I used to have 10 years ago that always got stuff stuck in the brushes. The removable rubber rollers solved that problem and I love the automatic dirt disposal, really a huge improvement!

Amazing product! I can’t imagine my life without it. If you have pets, this is fantastic to run every day or every other day to get rid of the pet hair. This is has truly made the housework that much easier. Someone posted about a loud sound when it’s emptying itself. That sounds like a high pitch turbine for like 10 seconds and then it’s over. Nothing crazy.

Roomba i3 is awesome! Originally we had a Shark IQ one of the older ones and thought ok it works just fine and we didn’t need to spend the “big” bucks for Roomba when we we get the same results. Needless to say our Shark ended up dying. We thought ehh we didn’t need another one because it was just doing an ok job. We actually saw within the week that the Shark did a lot for use between major floor cleanings. This time around we said you know what let me spend the big bucks and if we got the same result as the Shark we would return it and go with another. When I say WOW what a difference! I feel that this one cleans a lot more thoroughly than the Shark did. The self empty feature saves us time on emptying every few days and the app interface is amazing. Love it for downstairs! We did buy another Shark for upstairs though and it does wonders up there but if We had the extra to spend it would’ve been a Roomba up there as well. I think anyone who buys this will be happy. I don’t think you need to spend the extra on the i7 if you have an open floor plan as the vacuum gets everywhere you want. If your home has different rooms then it makes sense for the i7 but definitely not a NEED! Good Job iRobot!

Listen. Are you working all day? Have a pet, child, or messy younger sibling who is sucking the soul out of you? Want to have clean floors and impress your friends that they can't match your floor game? Then buy this. The i3+ does the job, but the real dog and pony show is the auto emptying bin. Game changer. Life changer. Do it.

Having upgraded from an older 'dumb' roomba that just goes in random patterns, I had hoped that the i3+ would be a huge step forward. It's a step forward but not as great as I hoped. For instance, it spent the first 30 minutes of its life in my house bumping into my dining room table legs and chairs, only cleaning half the dining room. Once it finally got out into an open space, it would clean in more sensible back-and-forth rows than the older version would, but once it ran into any furniture, it threw it off and it started going in different directions. Overall, I think the i7+ would have made me happier since it is supposed to 'learn' your rooms, but it is much more expensive. The vacuum stand seems to do a good job at emptying the roomba's small dirt storage, but make sure it doesn't happen at night or when you're on the phone because it sounds like a jet engine taking off.

This has been incredible so far! Works great on both carpet and hardwood floors, and would definitely recommend going with the self cleaning version. I was concerned that you're mostly paying for the software and automation, and the cleaning part would be average. But we've been very surprised at how great the vacuum performs. compared to other high level vacuums.

Wonderful machine! I've used it daily but have never touched it to clean the wheels or brushes. I love the self emptying feature, its completely hands free! And when it's time to empty the bag, one lifts a tab which seals the contents inside! This picks up all our dog hair and leaves our house so clean, in would strongly recommend this to my friends!

Impressive, very easy and handy to use. I use it everyday and set it to vacuum 1AM. Very helpful as I have 3 under 5 who mess the floor all day. I do not have to manually vacuum. The downside is it gets easily stocked but that is because of our long curtains.

Amazing! So much better than our old Roomba that wandered to room like a drunken housekeeper stumbling around a hotel room they’ve never been in before. This one has a brain, it cleans exceptionally well, and rarely misses a spot. It is gentle around our furniture, and I love the fact that I don’t have to empty the bin each day it runs. Worth every penny I paid for it.

After the learning process, the i3 cleared dust, fur very well...even better than expected. Handled hard floor and low pile carpet. The self emptying feature has been a worthwhile splurge. Not sure whether a poop detector camera is necessary if you are watching the pets during cleaning sessions.
