Roomba Plus 504 Vac Robot + AutoEmpty™ dock

Agreed! We just got the 504 plus and love it.

Do you mean one like the 504 plus? The green roller, rubber brushes? Mine doesn't do that but it is new.

I have a golden retriever and just got the Roomba 504 Plus. I love it! No more golden tumble weeds lining the hallway and it empties itself 🙂

I just went from a roomba i3 to a Roomba plus 504, it's a vacuum with an auto empty dock. Two giant dogs, tile/rugs/carpet in our home and expecting our first baby. This version is smarter and quieter than our last one, with multiple cleaning modes (smart, spot, standard, and deep) and the map is user friendly! I can just select what rooms I want and what type of vacuuming I want and it does it's thing. If it gets too full mid job it goes and empties itself. The auto dock is loud like a shop vac or tiny jet, but it's only about 10 seconds of noise and it's done. The dock lets you know when the bag is full. I work 10 hour days and come home, eat dinner, and while I shower I select a room or two for it to go to town on. It doesn't bump into stuff like the i3 did because it has a front camera, headlight, and better LiDAR system. I know Roomba is facing a financial crisis and potential bankruptcy, but I'm not regretting my purchase whatsoever. I got it on sale for black Friday from Amazon for 379 (and then it went down further to 329 lol)

You care about mopping? If not then I’d recommend the 504 plus or the 705 plus. 504 plus is same as 705 plus except a bit lower suction power

The new roombas have quality issues? The 105,205,504, and 705 releases

We have three dogs and one being a Golden Retriever. Our 15 year old 500 series Roomba has zero issues cleaning that.

Neato XV series for being awesome and being the first robot vacuum to feature a lidar sensor roomba 500 series, for a while they were the most popular robot vacuums ever made and still the most reliable, other than battery replacements they can last more than 15 years without issues Roomba 980, the thing is still a beast at cleaning and the navigation is good enough. No keep out zones or anything but it does its job well

The older Roombas could be set to clean once per day at a specified time, so you could have 7 scheduled cleanings. There are buttons to set the clock and then a cleaning time for each day of the week. I still have 2 of them, one is a 650 and the other is a 500 something. I don't think they make them anymore, but I am sure you could find one. These 2 both still work. I don't have an app for them, but I have a 3 foot dowel rod I use to push the start button, If you have connection problems or simply don't want to connect to the internet, the solution is to not connect. Just push the start button. The advantage of the Roomba brand is that you can get replacement parts easily and they run forever. There's lots of info on how to repair them. Don't know if the other brands have that knowledge base yet.

I Jumped the Robo Vacs wagon with a cheap " bump and go " to see if it was a fit for me.. Finally gave up after 3 years, RIP, so decided to get into the new Roomba line with Lidar and " advertised" better bells and whistles.. My dead $80 Vac beats the hell put of the $250 I paid for this crap and the headaches I endured with the software wasn't worth it.. Still after many updates, my Lefants software was better than this one.. Roomba is on it's way out and rightfully so..
