iRobot Roomba 692 Robot Vacuum-Wi-Fi Connectivity, Personalized Cleaning Recommendations, Works with Alexa, Good for Pet Hair, Carpets, Hard Floors, Self-Charging, Roomba 692

We like to use this for cleanings in-between thorough once a month professional cleanings. You need to keep an eye on it while it is running, because it sometimes gets stuck under a cabinet or on a hefty rug. We move some of our chairs and other furniture before using the Roomba so it can move more freely.

Got this to replace a competitor product (shall remain nameless...) which jammed up with hair and dirt and had to be cleaned or unstuck many times in a cleaning session. This Roomba is basic, but works very nicely. Seldom needs cleaning (e.g. rollers, main brush, etc.). Hardly gets stuck. My only gripe with it is the unreliability of the cliff sensors. I have a white tile floor with a step down to hardwood. Most of the time the cliff sensors work and it turns on the step and retreats. But occasionally it just drives over the edge and gets stuck (does not fall down to lower level). Very puzzled why. I tried cleaning the sensors - but not sure if its that. I think because its white, sometimes it just misses the edge. Annoying. update. Cliff sensors still erratic. Work 99% of the time, then they dont.... now the charging is intermittent too. Sometime it will charge, and sometimes it wont. Sometimes is charges, then loses its connection, so over a day or so, it loses all its power. Almost every time I try to use it, the battery is out. :-(. The work around I found was to place a weight on the Roomba when its charging. Not really a solution, but at least its charged when I need it. (yes, I did try cleaning the contacts....) see picture slowly taking the stars off, one at a time :-(

I had been reluctant to get one of these but I admit I am impressed with the quality and function of the Rumba. I have mainly carpet in my home and this will not totally replace using my manual deep cleaning vac The Rumba does a great job picking up loose surface type dirt and the only thing I have to do is use the app to start it. It would be perfect for hard flooring. It goes everywhere and does well at edge cleaning. It also can do scheduling ( how often and when to an area), generate a report for each vacuuming session and other functions. I clean mine after each session to keep it in good shape. It is very easy to clean and the brushes and filter need to be replaced occasionally but there is an internal log for that too. All in all it does a great job saves me from having to do it so often.

We bought a roomba about a year ago after holding off for a long time. I had heard that they were noisy and weren’t very effective. I was so wrong! We run our robot every day in the middle of the night, and it has changed our lives. Our apartment is so much less dusty, and our newly adopted cat has not triggered our allergies, much of which I attribute to our little robot. Every house should have one of these. Ours is one of the least expensive and it is amazing.

ok so if i really don’t care what it picks up it’s fine (i have animals so if the goal is to just pick up the excess hair) but if i have something i want it to vacuum it’s so freaking annoying it drives me crazy. with its “adaptive” cleaning pattern it may go over a mess one time bump into the wall and then run away to the other room and never come back before it says the job is “complete”. IT DRIVES ME INSANE. i literally have to babysit this thing whenever it’s running to make sure it actually picks everything up like it obviously helps me more then myself going around the house and vacuuming everyday but dang for this price you would hope it would be just a tad bit smarter. if you can afford it spring for one of the models with the “neat row” cleaning style so then when it hits something it doesn’t just RUN AWAY. the other thing it does is it may take the whole 90 minute charge to sweep my house and STILL miss the mess. like i don’t have time to do this cleaning so i am grateful for the device but i could literally sweep my whole house accurately in a third of the time.

It picks up a lot, It sometimes fails to return to the charger, or pushes the charger around instead of hooking up to it. It gets stuck on our Ikea chairs and on power cords, so I cant just let it do its thing. I wish I could program it to avoid the chairs. It seems to move about randomly instead of in a grid or in some logical order. This means that it repeats the same areas instead of covering more areas, so it doesnt always get every spot. It has become a game where we stand in its way to get it to turn away from the chairs. Picks up pine needles, pet hair and leaves well.

We have had a Rooma for the past several years. Finally beat it to death. Used it constantly. We purchased this newer model replaced that one. Very pleased with it. The first think my wife noticed was how much quieter it was. It seems to move more smoothly through the space. We use it on a combination of floors: wood, carpet, and tile. And it seems to me that it recharges more quickly than out previous model. It also had wi-fi capabilities, but we havent really had a reason to use that yet. Highly recommend this product.

This thing is a game changer! I run it once every day. I don’t know if I’m ever going to use my vacuum again. The pictures I included is the dirt and dust that it vacuumed from under my dresser and my bed after only 10 minutes. Please note that it’s been a while since it’s been cleaned under there so that is why there so much, but I was shocked at what it picked up! Also included a picture where it was able to get under my dry sink but not between the legs, you can see the spot that it got and the spot that I did not. So it works very well with suction! Two complaints. One is that it’s very loud. Annoying when you’re trying to watch tv or hear someone from another room. Also, when I tell it to go to it’s home, sometimes it takes 2 minutes, sometimes 25 minutes and other times I have to pick it up and charge it because the battery will die and it wont make it home in time. I don’t understand it. It will be circling right near the home and I think it’s going to go home and nope! It turns around and goes in another room. Very annoying!! But overall, I am pleased with its performance.

I am very pleased with my vacuum. It does a great job on my hardwoods and transition well three to the rugs. It’s very easy to clean once your finished vacuuming. Comes with great filters that are easy to clean as well.

Better off splurging for the higher end model with camera. Dont let the price hold you back; buy a returned one or use Affirm!
