"my roomba 600 has outlasted all the fancy lidar ones my friends have bought. ... I've had it for almost a decade"
"We have had an iRobot Roomba for 17 years. ... This Roomba, with replacements when things wear out, has outlived most other appliances we have."
"Older roombas are simple, reliable, durable, effective, and cheap. ... I have a 10yo 600 series roomba and a new Roborock Q5. Q5 is great but I'm skeptical that it's going to last as long."

"It has had two battery replacements in its life, and has had a replacement main board once, which added the schedule feature. ... considering you can change all of the parts with a screwdriver and a bit of basic knowledge (how to plug/unplug things)"
