iRobot Roomba i4+ EVO (4552) Robot Vacuum with Automatic Dirt Disposal - Empties Itself for up to 60 Days, Wi-Fi Connected Mapping, Compatible with Alexa, Ideal for Pet Hair, Carpets

Vacuuming good job. Great fun.

I purchased this and then returned it. The noise level was so loud that my kids woke up from it.... The suction wasnt great and therefore lots of dirt stayed left over since the brush kept on pushing it away in places it already passed.. and it kept on running back to the base for charging. My house isnt so big.... So instead of having to pick everything up and putting the chairs on the table to make place for the vacuum cleaner, I just bought a regular hand held which takes a few minutes instead of a few hours and my house is cleaner!

It took a while to get a map and once complete it seems more confused than ready to clean. It’s constantly running around ‘thinking’ more than cleaning it seems. I wish it had a remote where I could help it out like my last one did! Overall for the price and comparing my first brand (Deebot) I don’t think it’s far superior other than self cleaning.

This is not the model that maps the room so it runs a little haywire but we have it clean on schedule twice a week and I’d say it hits most places weekly. It handles pet hair better than expected but we have one rug, that because of the texture I’m guessing, it rolls some of the hair into little balls and never picks it up.

That it doesn’t work with 5g

Overall this is an excellent product. I can set it do work while Im away from home. Its quieter than my stand up vacuum and can get to hard to reach places like under my fireplace bench. It does have mapping just not the smart mapping that all the other reviews said it as missing. You have the option to join beta testing through the app so who knows maybe itll be added one day. Pros: Self-emptying and charging picks-up pet hair and dirt motivates me to clean where is robot cant go (like my stairs) scheduled cleanings easily done through the app teamwork-I can focus on other areas of my house to clean while to robot is working Cons: Culture of waste created by the company to make profit. The replaceable parts are purposely not meant to last. I can already see that the brushes will need to be replaced in 6 months or less. (Ive had this robot for about a week) Dust bags are disposable not reusable for the i4 Considering all the replacement part youll have to buy over the life time of the product the price point is too high.

I have an I3 and did not have any issues connecting it to my wifi. This I4 will not connect, there is no way to schedule it or access any features without wifi.

Dislike how many boxes the package came with and the vacuum is a bit noisy. Other than that, we are pleased with how clean our floor is once the cleaning is complete.

iRobot was sent with the regular dust bin, not the automatic disposal compatible bin. Plan on buying the right part to get it to empty on its own, which runs about $70. The robot itself has great suction and does a good job on pet hair.

I dont leave many reviews, but I can tell you that this is a great product. My Roomba is able to clean the vast majority of my apartment with ease and removes the hassle of having to vacuum all the time. It is a little noisy, but it isnt unbearably loud and Ill gladly accept a little bit of noise for a very powerful, automated vacuum. 5/5 --> excellent product.
