"My roomba 7 is 5 years old and works fine"


"my roomba j5+ is the only one that is reliable and working at the moment"


"almost all comments from owners with high hours (maybe 800+) were either roborock S5s, old random pattern roombas, and i series roombas. ... People are getting very long lifespans with new Roombas, providing they don't want to upgrade to something with more features ... I still haven't ran into this issue after 1k jobs and 380 hours runtime on my j5+"

"It always seems to know where I am and will do whatever to annoy me. In the kitchen? It insists on cleaning beneath my feet. Watching TV? Better spend an hour on that rug right below the TV. Reading? Better get stuck behind the chair. It feels malicious at this point and I deeply fantasize about pulling an officespace on it."


"It will frequently violate its no go zones and either get stuck or move shit around."


"I got about 8 months out of a roomba before the thing went feral. ... It would try to get out the backdoor and down the deck stairs. ... After awhile it would just come out of the dock, spin, and go back home."

"The only issue is I used to have long hair and it would get sooo tangled - it would tell me the Roomba was stuck in a corner somewhere, when really it was a clump of hair so big it physically pushed it up 😭"


"We have dogs that shed a lot. It just got to the point where I was doing more babysitting of the vacuum than actual vacuuming."


"I’m constantly cleaning tanged hair from the brushes. ... I’m honestly tired of cleaning the brushes with a scissors 😩"

"crappy software updates, constant errors and resets broke me. ... the software is absolute garbage ... a vacuum is completely useless if it can navigate correctly."
