I dunno man I got me a new to me but prolly pretty old roomba i1+ and I'd be lying if I didnt run that through my place every Mondays Wednesdays Fridays and Saturdays even tho I have 2 sebos and a miele the floor just doesn't have that just back from the dentist smoothness that I now fully expect every inch of floor to feel like at all times.
I got this too. My i1 has been having issues charging and I was actually looking for batteries. This couldn’t have been better timing for me! Congrats!
Roomba i2 was good at keeping things in control, but it could not get cat hair out of the carpet as well as our Shark Rotator. On the hardwood it was great.
I picked a roomba from vine and I'm constantly having trouble with the app. It took DAYS to set it up, and once done it has constantly sync issues. It works eventually, but it's one of those instances that paying for the brand name is not worth it.
I bought one a while ago for the novelty since it was a black Friday sale (and I suck at keeping a schedule to vacum. Didn’t have mapping but I thought it would be smart enough to still navigate just fine. Instead it just rams into things then randomly changes direction. Meanwhile, a coworker bought some bootleg that cost a fraction of the price and it runs flawlessly. All the extra shit that roomba charges for in it’s higher tier models are included for free. Never buying another roomba product. They’ve clearly just been coasting off of brand recognition.
If you do I recommend the I or J series because no other brand or even roomba model has a dust bin sensor to tell the robot to self empty when it’s full.

Skip iRobot and Eufy, go with Roborock. I have two J series Roombas and they have numerous issues that would keep me from buying their brand again. I saw my friend's Roborock in action and I would 100% get that next when one of our Roombas fail
Not technically a roomba, but that didn’t stop us from naming it Goomba the Roomba! It’s been great, forces us to pick things up off the floor.
