The iRobot 675 has changed my life. I’m a mom to 4 young children living in a 1880 square foot house on a large wooded lot. My kids are outside A LOT and track in all kinds of dirt, mud, leaves, grass, etc. My husband, while I love him, is also kind of a mess and has a bad habit of not wiping his shoes and bringing in a ton of sawdust from his projects. On top of all of that, add in the fact that children under 7 really don’t know how to eat properly and drop about seven thousand crumbs per meal per child. Our floors, wood, tile, and carpet, have been a disaster for years. Enter the Roomba. I have been eyeing this little piece of wizardry for years and wondering if this could be the tool that could change my life. I swept and vacuumed (with a Dyson DC33) multiple times a day. I was constantly telling guests, “hey sorry about the floor but I think we’re just gross and I can never get on top of it”. Well, after finally biting the bullet I regret that I didn’t buy a Roomba years ago. I don’t have to apologize to guests and I can finally walk barefoot in my house without having 100 tiny crumbs attaching to the bottom of my feet. I love this thing more than I have ever loved any appliance or cleaning tool I have every owned. About half of our home is our 2 living areas, dining, kitchen, and mud room. The other half are 4 bedrooms and two bathrooms. I have a baby gate dividing the two halves which acts as a barrier that the Roomba can’t get through. I really like having that barrier and if I didn’t use that baby gate I probably would have gone with the 690 for the virtual wall but I don’t see a purpose for it for us. I run the Roomba every night in our living/eating/kitchen area after we pick up the toys and straighten up the house. This is like magic. I always WANT to have things picked up and put away but I didn’t always do that before the Roomba because we are TIRED. But I love running the Roomba so much that since we have owned this thing we have cleaned up every night since we have owned it. Magic. I run the Roomba in the bedroom/bathroom areas 2-3 times a week in our house. Our kids are a little afraid of it (I want them to be, I don’t want them to touch it, and I may have told them it will bite them) and it does make noise so between all of our napping and sleeping I don’t have as much time to run it back there. I don’t mind though, because the bedrooms do not get nearly as dirty as our living areas. The things I wish I would have known before purchasing: - It really does clean all of the floor. It picks everything up. The crumbs and leaves are gone. It doesn’t miss any part of the floor. I was afraid it would kind of get half of the floor and not the other half because it isn’t as intelligent as the higher trim lines of the Roomba. I was wrong. This thing is amazing. I heard from someone else that you shouldn’t watch the Roomba because it will just drive you crazy. This is totally true. I watch it and question every move it makes. Why did it roll right past that crumb? Why is it spending 20 minutes under that couch? Just don’t watch it! It so nice to lay in bed at night, tell it to clean from my smart phone, go to sleep, and wake up in the morning to spotless floors! - I have needed to clean out the dust bin after every cleaning. I read a lot of reviews that said once you get into the swing of things with your Roomba you only need to clean out the dust bin once or twice a week. That hasn’t been true for us. I’m telling you, we are gross. So if your kids are especially messy or you have really messy pets or track in a lot from being outside that might just be your reality. But that’s fine with me because emptying the dustbin is a lot easier than vacuuming my own floors! - It charges really quickly. I thought I’d be waiting half a day for a charge. Not so. Ours charges within an hour which is nice because I like to charge in between doing both halves of my house. With as dirty as our floors get I don’t think the Roomba could do the entire 1880 square feet on one charge. - Unless you really, really want the features the higher end Roombas provide you really shouldn’t look at this vacuum as a cheap item. The technology in this thing is awesome (or at least I think it is, I’m not really super techy). This is a great robot that does an amazing job and seems very durable. - It does make noise. My mother in law commented that she was surprised it made noise. It’s a vacuum. - It has changed my life. I am excited to clean my house. I am excited to pick up toys. Nothing has ever made me happier about cleaning. This thing is the real deal. I wake up to clean floors every morning and I didn’t do any of the work. Get yourself one.

OK, let me just say right off the bat that I just received The Bot (which is what I named it) today, so I can't comment on quality, longevity, tendency to break down, etc. I just wanted to give my first impressions. Over the last couple of years, I've known people who have had Roombas and they've been very happy with them. I had been looking to buy one for quite some time, but I wanted to wait until I found one that was affordably priced (IMO) while still having some more advanced technology, not too basic. The one I got was the 600 series (the Roomba 675), which works with Wi-Fi and has an app that you can download, whether you have an iPhone or a Droid. For some reason I was under the impression that it would work with Alexa, but it seems I was mistaken. It came in a very sturdy box and included a spare filter, a page with quick setup instructions, and a thankfully short owner's manual in the usual 3 languages, English (I noticed a few typos LOL), French, and Spanish. I was able to set it up very quickly, basically putting the dock on the floor near an outlet, plugging it in, and putting The Bot in the dock. It started charging immediately, although the owner's manual says that it already comes charged and could work right away. Anyway, while it sat in the dock charging, I downloaded the app and went through setting up the Wi-Fi, also a snap. The first time I ran it on my tile floors downstairs, it was because I accidentally pushed the button in the app LOL. It found its way around my front room, bumping gently into this and that, not hard enough to damage any of the moldings, paint, furniture, etc. At some point it decided to go back to the dock, probably to charge, and it docked perfectly and started charging. The second time I sent it for another run, I kind of had to encourage it to go into the other room, which it did. After about 15 minutes I ordered it to go back to its dock through the app. It took a little while for it to find its way back to the other room and dock, but again, it went back and docked itself perfectly. The first time it encountered a floor mat by my front door, it backed off, but the second time, it went onto the mat and vacuumed it (yay!) In my kitchen, I have a very ergonomic and cushioned rubber mat near the sink. It had no problem climbing up onto that and vacuuming that (yay!) The owner's manual has excellent information with diagrams, all of the parts being labeled, troubleshooting issues, and maintenance instructions. Regarding maintenance, it recommends emptying the bin after each use, cleaning the filter and brushes once a week, cleaning the front caster wheel every 2 weeks, and cleaning the side brush, the cliff sensors, and the charging contacts once a month. I do plan to empty the bin after each use (more on that later), but the rest seems kind of excessive to me, since I'm the only human in the house and I have no pets. I really only plan to use this maybe once a week upstairs and downstairs. I can eyeball the parts and see if they need to be cleaned periodically. Regarding maintenance of the various parts, in terms of replacing them, they recommend replacing the filter every 2 months, the brushes every 6 to 12 months, and the front caster wheel every 12 months (not sure why). This also seems kind of frequent to me, so again, I will just monitor their conditions and change them when I feel it's necessary. They have diagrams for how to clean and change all the various parts. One of my friends had a Roomba that was so loud it would scare the bejesus out of you if it started up and you weren't expecting it. I would say that mine does not seem to be that loud. To my surprise, when I emptied the dustbin, which was very easy, there was a lot of dirt, hair, and dust. So I'm very satisfied. I did follow The Bot around here and there, and watched it pick up things off the floor. I didn't see it leave anything obvious behind, and certainly my floors are cleaner than they were before. I couldn't find any specs, so I took measurements myself (although I guess you can probably find them online). The Bot is about 13 inches in diameter and seems to be not even 3 inches high. It had no problem going under most of my furniture, which I'm really happy about because there's always dust under there. Little update: I took The Bot upstairs, and let him cruise around for a while. It's a mix of carpet and tile. There was a good amount of dust and dirt accumulated in the bin. He did a great job going under the bed, vacuuming various floor mats, navigating door sills, etc. So far so good. All in all, caveat being that this is only the first day, I'm very satisfied with it, and I hope it has a very long, healthy, productive life here!

Great entry level robot vacuum. We use this to clean the hardwood and rugs in our living room and kitchen and it does a great job cleaning up all the cat and dog hair and all the dirt the pets bring in. The floors are spotless after it runs a full cycle. The Roomba app is great and you can easily set your cleaning schedule or start a new cycle while you're away. You do have to make sure any loose objects are off the floor, so as we leave for the day we take 2 minutes and move the pet food bowls and anything else up and out of the way. Same for any loose cords or curtains that are hanging on the floor. Knocking off one star because it sometimes sometimes freezes when it goes to far out over the ledge between our living room and family room that's one step down. 95% of the time it senses the ledge and turns around, but other times it goes too far out and gets stuck. You have to turn it around yourself and press start again to get it back running. It also sometimes get stuck under the couch. Our couch is just the right height that the Roomba can get under the couch in one certain spot, but then gets stuck. If it was a fraction taller or shorter, it would work just fine. It can be annoying when you expect it to clean the whole area, but get's stuck after just a few minutes of cleaning. It also seems to have a hard time finding it's docking station after it gets done cleaning. It's probably our fault in where we located the docking station, but this spot works for us and is out of the way. We just have to pick up the dead Roomba and carry it back to the dock. Not a huge deal, and the convenience of the robot vacuum outweighs the issue of having to carry it back when it's done. Due to the layout of our house, if it finds it's way into the bedrooms/office, it would usually get stuck back there, so we block off that area of the house now. We didn't feel like spending the large amount of extra money to buy a vacuum that comes with house mapping, so we still vacuum those areas with our cordless stick vacuum. If you're hoping this vacuum will clean your entire house and return to it's charging dock perfectly, you probably need to spend the extra money and buy one with mapping features. But, if you want a vacuum to thoroughly clean you main living areas and save a little money, this is the one for you.

I purchased this on a flash deal for the roomba 675. I've been eyeballing robot vacuums for a while now, but couldn't justify the cost. I also have 4 cats and 1 dog and have been a bit paranoid about the horror stories I've read. Once it was delivered, I proceeded to unpackage it. Quick instructions on setting this up. I let it charge (which took less time than the instructions stated). Once it was charged, I set up the house with "barriers" in places I didn't want it to go. Shut the door to the mud room so it didn't go in there and then started it up. Off it went like a drunk uncle during Christmas dinner. It was banging into everything all over the place. I chalked it up to the learning phase. But boy, oh boy, did it remind of the drunk uncle stories. You know, that uncle that gets drunk during family gatherings, but everyone still loves. From this point on, I decided it needed a drunk uncle name. Mine is called uncle Otis. Uncle Otis went to town on my house. So much that I didn't think he was going to make it back before the battery ran out. On the app, I told it to go dock. Uncle Otis (like a typical drunk uncle) didn't really listen and just kept on cleaning. I think he finally staggered home, but barely. I really was not expecting uncle Otis to actually clean as well as my regular vacuum. I have an expensive Kirby vacuum and couldn't imagine this little guy could outdo it. I also had vacuumed previous to getting this just to give the poor guy a chance. To my surprise, the container was chalk FULL of animal hair and debris. I couldn't believe it, but uncle Otis was able to get a deeper clean than my expensive, fancy vacuum. Day two: I started uncle Otis up. Still banged into a bunch of things, but not as hard this time. I guess he finally started get some lay of the land. Poor guy was also going into nooks and crannies I couldn't reach with my regular vacuum. I think he became friends with a spider under my entertainment center. He came out fully decorated in spider silk... Only catch today was that he tried to get under the coffee table and got stuck. Had to free him and start him back up. Off he went again. After he was done cleaning, I emptied him. The container was 3/4 full of hair and debris. Man, uncle Otis is a beast! Day three: I gave uncle Otis the day off. Day four: I was working from home, so I started him up and went upstairs to work. I swear, about every 10 minutes, uncle Otis was stuck under the coffee table again. I finally let him have his way and raised the coffee table with some wood blocks. Uncle Otis was happy he could get under there. Still a decent amount of hair and debris after the run. I'm not sure, but I think uncle Otis is trying to mess with me. Either that, or my animals are filthy! Overall, I am extremely happy with this purchase. Uncle Otis does a great job vacuuming. He hasn't had any problem transitioning from carpet to hardwood floors to rugs. I even braved taking him upstairs to clean. I was a bit concerned about him stumbling down the stairs, but he was great at stopping before the great tumble. It is a bit scary, as he does head toward the edge at a pretty fast speed. But he never once tumbled. He still picks up a ton of hair and debris. This actually makes me happy as that is nasty that I could be breathing. And it's wonderful having a happy little robot that can vacuum while I do something else. Every once in a while, he has his "moments". The last time I ran him, he had somehow knocked the charging station into the middle of the hallway and placed himself where he should have docked... But sideways. Goofy ole uncle Otis.

Disclaimer: I bought this model, 675, with my own money and these are my honest opinions. I've never owned one of these and literally bought it on a whim. I was initially looking at a cheaper Eufy brand vacuum because I trust its parent company (Anker), but once I saw that iRobot had Alexa enabled and app integrated robots I went for this one. A lot of my house consists of smart devices so it only made sense. The Alexa integration was very simple. Just download the app, log into your wifi, and the Roomba connects very easily. Then you just have to enable the iRobot Home skill in your Alexa app. I had trouble figuring out the appropriate commands but just google search "roomba alexa comands" to find them. Once you set up scheduled cleaning in the iRobot app you don't have to control it through Alexa very often unless you want to do multiple cleanings in a day. I placed the dock appropriately, following spacial instructions, and charged the robot for about an hour. The instructions say 3 hours initially but I checked the app and it was fully charged. The Roomba responds very quickly to the app and it started cleaning right when I tapped "Clean" on the app. It moves very randomly and can seem to get stuck for a bit but it usually finds its way. I have an area rug with dark brown/black sections that I wasn't worried about but it will not pass over them because it assumes they're "cliffs." I'm grateful for the "cliff protection" feature and can live with this hiccup, just beware if you have black rugs. I have others that are solid chocolate brown and it passes over those just fine. I was frustrated that it wouldn't return to base the first couple times, but that's because I moved it manually because it couldn't find its way out from under my dining table and I was inpatient. IF YOU MOVE IT DURING CLEANING IT CAN'T FIND THE BASE. It will only find its way back to the dock it it starts there and is left uninterrupted. Occasionally it will actually get stuck and it will turn off and chime some tones to get your attention. You also get a notification on your phone to go help it. The only times it's gotten really stuck was on the edge of a really high pile shag rug (which is warned against in the instructions) and when it wedged under a headboard that was just the perfect height to pin it to the ground. Some have said it sucks up cords but I keep my cords/electronics VERY tidy so its not an issue for me. Emptying the bin is very easy, and it filled up really quickly the first few runs, which is expected. Its kind of gross how much it captures in my house because I keep it very clean as it is. It was able to pick up standard clay cat litter fairly well. Toward the end of its cleaning cycle when the bin and filter were more obstructed it didn't always capture the litter though, which is what you'd expect. It did bump into my cats' food and water bowls and push them around a bit. It worries me a little that water may spill if I'm not there to monitor it. I've ordered a "iRobot Dual Mode Virtual Wall Barrier (Renewed)" that i'll put in "Lighthouse" mode to fix that (the renewed model is half the price of a new one so I'm giving it a shot. it has a 90 day amazon guarantee). Overall I love this thing and it's only been 2 days. It's very convenient to be able to schedule cleaning when your away at work, or if you are expecting company and have other things to prepare. I think my Roomba will continue to serve me well. If any glaring issues come up I'll update this review as needed. UPDATE 9/19/19 I still love the thing. I ordered some white felt tape and put that over the black borders of my trouble rug under my couches so it seamlessly travels over those areas. I also ordered 8 2" risers for my couch and loveseat because they were just barely too low for the roomba. The iRobot virtual walls (Renewed) are a life saver. I have 3 of them now, one to protect the cat food bowls, one to block off the dining room (it gets caught in the chair legs forever and would rather it spend time in other areas), and one to block off a room with a high pile shag rug. I've officially "roomba-proofed" my house and I have it clean everyday while I'm at work and I havent gotten a "Roomba is stuck" notification since. I love this thing and highly recommend it as long as you have REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.

I've had "Rosie" about a week and I LOVE her! I bought on Prime Day special and feel that it's a great value for the cost. It is so easy to download the App and set up. Controlling whole house or single rooms is easy to program from my phone. I'm a very particular housekeeper and it does a wonderful job vacuuming the vinyl and brick floors and my rugs. The cleaning it does under the beds in one of my favorite things. I will say that the mopping is good but not great. This will not replace deep cleaning or regular mopping for me, but it is great for in between. I would definitely recommend the iRobot Roomba 105 Combo.

I have a combined garage and wood working shop. The cars bring in dirt and grit, especially in the winter. The wood shop generates dust and wood shavings. If the shop is vacuumed, it is so much nicer to work in -- no lofting dust, no grit underfoot. Over the years I have had three different robot vacuums. This one is the best so far, but it gets stuck stupid places, like at the garage doors or behind a bin of wood shavings. My other gripe is that when it has an issue it has a voice that instead of telling you the issue tells you to open an phone application. It would be much better to say "can't detect refuse bin" than "error 14. Open the blah, blah, blah app". So far (5 months or so), this continues to work. It *seems* like it will continue to work. Some background on previous vacuums. Years ago I had a Roomba 410. It got stuck less and on fewer things, but didn't clean quite as well and would become completely disabled by an ash-wood plane shaving. After six or eight months, its gears had worn down to nubs due to the grit from the cars. I managed to replace the main gear train, but it wore down again after a similar time, and I decided it wasn't worth the expense at that rate. After that, my brother gave me a Neato brand vacuum. This is similar to the Roomba, but, instead of the random-walk vacuum pattern follows a satisfying back-and-forth pattern. Unfortunately, as much as it was more pleasing to watch, it didn't do as good a job. I had to run it three or four times to get the same quality of material pick-up as the Roomba 410 did in one pass. Additionally, it is just a bit taller than the Roomba, which made it not fit underneath my lumber drying rack. It got stuck about the same amount as the Roomba 410. The batteries stopped holding a charge after 8 months or so. I replaced them and the second set lasted vaguely half as long. I replaced them again and that set lasted only a couple of months. Additionally, at some point the bin sensor failed (so it never detected that the bin was in place), so I bypassed it with some solder. This Roomba (the 675) cleans in roughly the same random pattern as the 410. It definitely picks up more and doesn't fail as badly on wood shavings or blown in leaves. The battery life has been fine so far, and the gears look like they haven't worn too much so far. I wish it didn't get stuck so often. Update: The failure mode of the bin not registering is so irritating that I'm updating this review and downgrading this. I got a replacement bin once, which solved the problem for a while. The failure mode is that the vacuum starts, runs for a few seconds and then says in an artificially cheerful voice that it has had error 14 and to check the phone app. The phone app doesn't help here -- it tells you error 14 is the bin, but not *why* the bin isn't working. Sometimes if you take the bin out and put it back or kick it, it will work for another few cycles. But now if just keeps complaining about error 14. The bin's fan still works, so it isn't clear what the problem is. As a user-interface, an obnoxiously cheerful unhelpful error message is awful. The first time it is only useless -- they could have just as easily said "bin error" as "error 14". It would be better to acknowledge that failure is undesirable -- "bin error; cannot vaccum until resolved" would be much better than "check the app for help" when there is no help in the app. Each time, the faux cheerful voice says an error, it reminds me of the original Macintosh computers that would say "An error has occurred -- Okay" just as it lost all your data, and the situation was anything but okay.

I purchased this a few weeks ago after my Neato gave out. PROS -The app and wifi connection is awesome. I can tell my alexa to turn it on or off etc. - It doesn't get stuck or caught on things nearly as often as my neato did. My neato was shaped like the letter D. So it was bound to get stuck a lot. This little guy is round and can work his way out of most situations. - It picks up a TON of lint and trash off the floor. We don't have dogs but we do have 2 kids. And my husband is a mechanic that loves to ride 4 wheelers in mud. My daughter and I both have long hair that falls out everywhere. And my 1 year old son drops food like no bodys business. So my floor always needs a good vacuuming. This does the job. I can run my regular vacuum over the floors and then turn this on and it still gives me a full bin of lint and dirt. CONS.. - The biggest drawback for me is the fact that my house is pretty open concept. It cleans pretty sporadically and does miss some areas. Next time I will be getting the roomba that you can set boundaries for. So that you can pick one room for it to clean at a time. For example my kitchen has 4 door ways (weird I know). Honestly I just need that room cleaned most the time when I turn it on but I can't block it in there because it would be nearly impossible with all the ways for it to escape. I have read that Irobot sells something for this so I'm going to look into it. But keep in mind that if your home is open concept it DOES clean pretty sporadically. I usually put it in a room and shut the door. It cleans the room and does a great job. When it's done it plays its little jingle and a notification is sent to my phone. I go and move it to another area. Kind of annoying but better than having to lug my vacuum around to do the whole house. - As I said before, my daughter and I both have long hair and we shed a lot. So every week I am cutting hair out of all the nooks and crannies on this thing. Hair is wrapped around everything! I know it is probably wrapped around the wheels too.. as that is what happened with my neato. So I know I will eventually have to take it apart and cut hair out of all the hard to reach places such as the axels. I'm really not sure if the more expensive ones would do a better job or not. This might just be a curse that we long haired girls are forever doomed to. Overall I am happy with this purchase. We named our vacuum Sir Cleans-a-lot. Hes part of the family and we love him.
