"The D7 was champion on carpets with out of the world suction."
"A few months after using a Neato 5 times per week the area was no longer matted. ... So robotic vacuums can actually do a heck of a job."
"Hair Pickup on carpet is better than the S7 MaxV but still worse than the Neato D7. ... The Neato filled the entire, much larger, bin, the chute partially jammed with hair and the bristle brush was wrapped completely. ... Neato is still king of deep carpet cleanup (if you ignore how jammed full of hair it gets) ... The Neato by far has the best PICKUP"

"because of the hair issue, I end up getting out my big vacuum and sucking up all the hairs before I send the 'bot out cleaning. ... However, it doesn't have any anti-tangle technology. I don't really see how it would be much better than my Neato."
"I also have to do a pre floor tidy, including unplugging that cable which runs from the sofa otherwise the 'bot eats it. ... I want to set it on a schedule to run automatically which I could never do with the Neato due to the necessity to pre-tidy."

"even when I started it manually, it kept spazing out about 10-20 mins into a clean, and then just stopped."

"When she got stuck, it was like having a needful puppy. ... We'd get the alert, moan, go look for her, fix her, and then laugh when she'd wander around lost because she lost her way from us breaking her direction. ... Cute, sure. But not practical obviously. ... yeah the neato was so charmingly dumb lol. Got lost so easily."

"Honestly, the Neato D7 scared the crap outta my boy. ... The RoboRock, despite having a stronger vacuum, is MUCH quieter, and doesn't seem to bother him at all."
"That thing was so loud. ... We literally had to halt conversations as it neared us while cleaning."
"was loud as hell"

"The Neato filled the entire, much larger, bin, the chute partially jammed with hair and the bristle brush was wrapped completely. ... The Neato by far has the best PICKUP - but it was TERRIBLE with tanglement. The Brush would literally be covered in 2-3 days and need to be cleaned.. it would often jam after a week if I didn't clean it out."

"Detangling my old Neato D7 was a weekly chore."

"With the company gone bust It's not worth repairing any more."
"Software. Neato doesn’t exist anymore and whoever bought them doesn’t know what they are doing."
"I couldn’t get it to connect to WiFi any more"
