  • Works great
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
This is my 4th roomba. I bought my first 17 years ago. I am very impressed with the upgrades in noise and design over the years. This one moves under furniture easily, is much quieter, and is strong and much cheaper than my first. Running daily gets so much dust and all the pet hair and saves me from having to manually sweep every day. Now I only sweep once to twice a week when I mop. I would love the one with the mopping feature as well but decided against it because I was afraid my dog would track through and leave paw prints. Very satisfied and 150 bucks well spent! ... show more

  • DO NOT BUY THIS ROOMBA - CLEAN THE DOG POOP OUT OF YOUR OLD ONE
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
This is the worst roomba I have ever owned. I bought this over a year ago, so I have been using it a long time before leaving this review. In "upgrading" this roomba from a previous model that I had, they have now made this roomba smooth on top. Which means she rams herself under the edges of things CONSTANTLY and literally cannot finish a cycle cleaning without getting stuck. It used to have a nub on top which stopped it from going under things and getting stuck. It has literally just been pulled out of the EXACT same spot it gets stuck in daily three times back to back. I picked up the unit and took it across the house THREE TIMES only for it to literally target lock itself and make a beeline back to the exact location that it got stuck at. And continues to get stuck in every single day, multiple times a day. Also, the edge brush falls out regularly for seemingly no reason. It does not clean in a recognizable pattern and misses a lot of things. It rarely runs on the set schedule because it literally sits on its charger and goes dead. It parks itself, says it's charging, and is dead before it can run again the next day. It doesn't run, we adjust it on the base, it lights up and says it's charging and then the next day when it's supposed to run, it doesn't. Because it's dead. All of these issues are out of the box issues and now that I see I have been using this for a year, I cannot believe I have suffered with this roomba for this long. Even the kids talk about how stupid this robot is. Works? No. Worth the price? No. An upgrade from my previous model? No. Has made me literally beat it in frustration multiple times? Yes. I should have cleaned the dog poop out of my old one and never bought this one. ... show more

  • Good as an introduction to the Roomba family.
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
I live in an apartment with vinyl floors and was shocked at how quickly dirt, dust, and debris piled up. Sweeping felt like a full-time job. Enter the Roomba Essentials, my new cleaning buddy. It’s definitely not perfect, but it sure beats sweeping every. single. day. I picked up the Roomba Essentials as an introduction to the world of Roomba, fully intending to upgrade later. As long as you know this isn’t the most advanced Roomba, you’ll manage your expectations and won’t be too frustrated by the occasional hiccup. First off, its main job is to relieve you from daily vacuuming or sweeping duties, and it does just that. It connects to your smartphone, allowing you to start it, set a schedule, and send it home. It also gives you a handy map of where it’s been, so you can keep tabs on whether it missed a certain spot. It also comes with Google and Alexa functionality, so you can talk to your voice assistant and have it begin a job at your command. But it won’t learn your home’s layout like the pricier models. You’ll still need to do a little prep work by clearing the floors: cords, shoes, or anything it might mistake for a light snack need to be hidden. Trust me, it has a weird appetite for power cords and phone chargers. . . . It mostly manages to avoid big things like baseboards, doors, and anything low enough for it to sense directly in front of it. But when it comes to low hanging edges like the underside of the kitchen cabinets, or a piece of furniture with too low of clearance while still being strangely high enough to avoid its sensors? It’s more of a ‘bump and hope for the best’ kind of strategy. I’ve watched it play demolition derby with all sorts of different pieces of furniture or obstacles more times than I can count. But it's never aggressive enough to mark anything up or cause any damage. Despite the occasional confusion, it handles my 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment pretty well, and the battery lasts plenty long enough to finish the job on the highest suction level, assuming it doesn’t get stuck in some bizarre nook and cranny... On the plus side, it’s quiet – much quieter than your standard upright vacuum. The only time it really raises its voice is to let you know it’s stuck or when it’s taken up that new hobby as a furniture boxer. iRobot makes maintenance super easy. There are guides and repair manuals in the app, which is great. But replacement parts aren’t exactly cheap. The app will also tell you when something needs replacing, so you’re not guessing when to switch out a part. If you’re expecting miracles, this little guy might fall a bit short. It’s the slightly more clumsy, budget-friendly cousin of the Roomba family. . .But if you’re looking for a reliable assistant to cut down on your daily sweeping and vacuuming, the Essentials does the job, quirks and all. Just be prepared for it to have a few "learning moments" along the way. . . . ... show more

  • Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
- no loud humming noise, it moves pretty quietly (it will bump into things though as expected) - Amazing cleaning ability for just a small robot and such a great help to keep the home clean it is also pretty light weight - Easy to use and easy maintenance, it comes with a cleaning a brush / razor that is attached to the chamber that collects dirt, it was a nice surprise - moves around well on carpet or tile or both even at the same time - comes with a manual/ instructions but honestly it’s so simple to use you won’t need it really - can use remote control from your phone using the app which is also easy to use / free (though I don’t recommend leaving the roomba unattended, use it while you’re doing another task) ... show more

  • Good cleaner, but ruins carpet
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
I purchased this Roomba Vac Essential in March 2025 and run it daily on medium-pile carpet. Setup was easy, and cleaning performance is generally solid — it picks up most dirt and pet hair, though I still need to run a manual vacuum for stray clumps of cat hair. One thing I appreciate is the neat, uniform vacuum lines, which is why I replaced my older robot vacuum (that one cleaned well but left random, chaotic patterns). Unfortunately, this model has a serious flaw. It gets stuck in about 3 out of every 5 cleanings, and in 2 of those cases it spins in place, leaving stubborn black marks from the wheel on my carpet. These stains are impossible to remove — I’ve tried multiple cleaners and even steam cleaning without success. At this point, I’ll likely need to replace my carpet entirely, not because of my geriatric cats, but because of the robot vacuum’s wheel damage. If you have carpet you care about, especially lighter or medium tones, I cannot recommend this model. On hard floors, it might be fine, but on carpet it’s a costly risk. ... show more

  • Low quality poor performing Roomba .. buy a higher priced one!
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
I fell for the low price and regret it. I have owned Roombas for more than a decade and my current one is starting to lose battery power. I decided to get the low priced one as a backup. I should have just popped for a new higher priced model. This thing has about 50% of the qualities of the others.. It has one brush roller while my old one has two. Everything about it is cheap, lightweight and seems fragile. It requires two full cycles to actually pick up debris and to cover the whole room. It failed to get small crumbs in the indentation of tile grout in the kitchen. Just went right over them. When I go over an area of the floor with a wet paper towel after the Roomba has gone over it, there are still small bits of dirt and dust. I missed the return window by 2 days or otherwise I would have sent it back and bought a more expensive one. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR is absolutely true. Spend the money for a better one! Update 2/21/25. I am even more disappointed in this thing. It can't redock itself but tries over and over and over...and even when I put it on the dock, right on the contacts, it won't start charging unless I put a sock under it to elevate it a little bit. It's ridiculous. Update 10/7/25. Now the battery isn't holding a charge for long. I ran it for 15 minutes doing a bathroom floor and it ran out of charge. This is truly a POS product. Changing my rating to 1. ... show more

  • Dont buy it
Style: Roomba Q011 Amazon Exclusive
This is my first experience with an iRobot brand and I have to say its so poor I may never purchase another product by them. Where to even begin? I previously had an iON brand unit I picked up at walmart on sale for $69 it was amazing and for $69 we could not complain. After two years of working hard and being abused by my boys if finally started making noises and it was time. So I thought moving to a $100+ name brand unit was going to be an upgrade. Not even close. 1. This unit only has one side brush unlike my other unit that had one on each side, so unless its approaching the wall or nook and cranny from the right direction it does not grab anything near the wall or door or corner of the room. 2. Its constantly getting stuck, the height of the unit is just enough that if you have a hard wood floor that was laid after your cabinets the space between the floor and the base of the kitchen cabinet is just enough for the downward angle of the unit to get wedged and its stuck. If you have a piece of furniture with say a box, or laundry hamper just smaller than the width of the unit next to it the unit sometimes will get stuck in a perpetual loop of turning around and running into the same piece of furniture then doing it all over again and never leaves that couple of square feet. 3. The APP is horrible. Very few customization settings, my old iON unit i could fully remote control the unit like an RC car, I could also adjust the vacuum suction, its overall travel speed and much more. With this APP you can locate the unit if its stuck (that is often) and change its suction. That is about it. 4. Wedges under every couch we have. If you happen to have one of those electric recliners where its slightly higher from the floor than most this unit will wedge itself under the back every time it passes by. (see picture) 5. The brush is constantly turning on an off, I assume this is a battery feature, however its very annoying and it does not seem to clean as well with this occurring (again you cant change it in the app). 6. The "human voice" (if you want to call it that) that communicates various issues to you such as "please place on a flat surface" or tells you there is a problem, is extremely LOUD. Even more so than the unit running by ten fold. So there is no chance your going to run this unit at night and sleep without nightmares of a robot taking you in your sleep. Bottom line is this unit does the job, however you have to babysit it so much its almost easier to just get out the vacuum and do it by hand. There are a few rooms that don't trigger the unit getting stuck or calling for help for random reasons, so we do use it there. However for the price, your better off getting one of the off brand units for sure. Use it in rooms that have no cabinets, couches, or furniture with a curved leg (it likes to treat the curved leg like a dog in heat if you know what I mean and gets stuck). I WOULD RECCOMEND purchasing something else.. ... show more
