Review: I'm still deciding... Update--Decided! Update #2 BUYER BEWARE! - Never again! Apparently the charging base can melt one of the charging ports. This is on my 2nd Irobot I have purchased. It has happened twice! I will NEVER OWN ANOTHER ROOMBA PRODUCT! This is a safety issue! They have replaced 2 charging stations and now I may be on my 3rd since it hasn't even been a year since I've had my new one. BUYER BEWARE!! Update on earlier review--I replaced the filter and all spinning things. They have a kit you can buy at desertcart to do this. It works great again. Just like the first day i bought it. So my review has gone to 5 stars. I have had this for about 7 months. I previously have had 2 Shark robots. Each lasted about a year. I have 2 dogs that shed. Pros. It definitely cleans better than the Shark and before I bought the Roomba I didn't think the Shark did a bad job. The Roomba does clean better. The Roomba does map out your room and is thorough. I love that it empties itself! Time saver!! It also doesn't get stuck near as much as my Shark did. Cons. After 7 months it seems to be confused. It used to go put itself on charge when the battery was getting low and it could get to it's destination pretty quick. Now, it seems to wander aimlessly for what seems like forever. I have never timed it but it will wander for what seems like 10-15 minutes within 10 feet of the docking station and I usually go pick it up and put it on myself. Here lately, I'm having to empty the bin more because it says it's clogged. So it's not just emptying itself each time. For 7 months it has done an amazing job. I'm sure that with my 2 shedding dogs (a beagle and lab) it is having to work overtime. That being said, for $549 I would hope I could get at least a year out of it but with the signs it is showing now, I don't think it's possible. I'm going to order the replacement parts and change them and do a thorough cleaning and see if helps.
Review: This is a real time saver - I always thought these were gimmicky. But I got one for Christmas and liked it so much I bought 2 more. I have all hard flooring, no carpets, and 2 dogs, a cat, and two birds that all contribute to mess. So I had to sweep everyday or I'd get those pet-hair tubleweeds blowing around. Having to sweep all the time I get lazy and let it go; or when I do it I spend an hour or 2 sweeping or vacuuming. These robots save me hours of time and get the job done better because they are relentless. I set them on a schedule and they do it everyday completely. I have one robot that I manually have to empty the cup everyday. He's in the bedroom, since I'm in that room every day that's convenient enough and only takes 2 minutes. I bought an i3+ and an i4+, they self empty and I have to change the bag about once every 2-4 months. I don't mind the cost of the vacuum bags because they give me so many hours of my time back. The first one I got is the little guy. The little guy's name is Finigan. Finigan isn't too smart. He vacuums in a random pattern. I started with him in the main part of the house. He did a great job but his battery usually ran out before he considered himself done. So the space is a bit more then he likes. He did a great job though. But I loved it so much I got more to cover the whole house and moved him to the smaller bedroom area. In the bedroom suite (bedroom + bathroom~350sq ft), he spends about 45 minutes zipping around to cover everything. When his battery is low he docks himself. I have to empty his cup everyday. At first his cup was usually about 3/4 full to full. The first day it filled and he stopped. I had to empty it and re-start him. After a few months of daily vacuuming, the cup is about 1/4 full each day. So I switched him to a MWF schedule. He's still about 1/4 to 1/2 full each use. He even goes under the bed and keeps that clean. It's really great. The i3+ is Dixie. Dixie does the downstairs. Dixie is smart. She goes in straight line patterns and covers the entire space using a very planned straight line methodical routine. The first day she poked around learning. It was about 1.5 hours. After that, the entire job was planned out and she did the whole thing in about 45 minutes. She has no problem when certain doors are opened vs closed. When it's open, she goes in and vacuums. If it's closed, she skips it. Her cleaning time varies from about 45 minutes to 1hr 15minutes depending on whether the extra rooms are included (doors open vs closed). She drives back to her base when done and docks. And the base sucks out what she collected. I love the base, it means I do not have to tend to her everyday. I actually only need to change the bag about every 3-4 months. There's not a lot going on downstairs. The litter box is there and so the cat pays visits. But we aren't down there daily tracking things around. Thanks to Dixie, there's no fur balls, hair-tumbleweeds, dust, or dirt. Always a nice clean floor. It's awesome. Her map in the app shows where she found 'extra' dirt. Usually right in front of the litter box. It's so awesome not having to sweep up litter daily. I have her on a MWF schedule too and that is more than enough to keep the place clean. I recently got Nick, an i4+ for the upstairs. He's quieter. He's like Dixie in is planning and map reporting, so he's smart. It's very cool. He also gets the job done quickly. First day was like 1.5 hours learning. Now he's done in 50 minutes. The base sucks everything out so I don't have to tend to him as much as Finigan. He's in the main part of the house and it gets the most dirty. The dogs spend all there time here. The cat is up here most of the time. And we have two birds who send seeds everywhere. It's amazing how far from the cage those birds can flick seeds. And their feathers and drift everywhere too. Nick takes care of all that. I do need to manually get under the couch and behind and under furniture which I do once every month or so. But this robot is awesome. Saves me the day in and day out sweeping and vacuuming. Having robots spend 3+ robot labor hours each day vacuuming is an awesome human labor saver. Once they've hit the whole house for a month or two I'm able to step them back to MWF schedules. Their brushes do a great job in the corners, better than me sweeping or vacuuming; mostly because they hit those corners every day and spend the time swirling that brush to work on it. That constant day in day out effort pays off over time. I really can't imagine going back to manually doing this. I look back at the hours I spent doing it thinking that was Neanderthal days. I look forward to telling my grand kids how I used to walk to school uphill in the snow everyday, dial rotary phones, select music off of CD's I had to manually put into a machine, and now, that I spent hours sweeping the floors in the good old days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I’m planning on joining an underground robot fight club. Would this be an effective fighter if I duct tape some knives to it?**
A: It doesn't have any sub-terrain burrowing capabilities so it probably would not do very well in an underground robot fight. I recommend staying explicitly on-ground.

**Q: Does hair get tangled in the rollers ? I own a small salon and would like to run this at night as an extra measure of tidiness.**
A: I CAN STATE WITHOUT QUALIFICATION..That this handles hair better than anything else I have tried.  I was worried about it cause my Shark Pet Vacuum became hopelessly wrapped up in our pet hair over time and I could not see how this little battery powered unit could work.. but..
I HAVE TESTED IT AND FOUND IT GOOD.. cause the rubber beater bars are solid (no little brushes for the hair to wind around and get caught in).. and when the hair does wrap around it, I can reach down, push my finger UNDERNEATH the hair cause the rubber is soft and hollow.. so I can push it down, get my finger under the hair and pull it up.. thereby breaking it and removing it easily. Granted my I3 is only 2 weeks old but I took it upstairs to my carpet and it had trouble with the huge quantity of hair (only to be expected) so  I vacuumed with my super duty kenmore to get the major amount of hair up, then tried it again and it worked perfectly this time.. (before it would fill up the bin every 5 minutes so it was a drag) and it only filled up the bin every 20 minutes.   Every time I emptied the bin, I  looked for stuck hair wrapped around the roller and only a small amount .. maybe one hair was wrapped around it. I removed it as above and returned it to service.

**Q: How far does it travel (distance)? How long does it clean?**
A: My house is one level 2600 square feet of livable space it does the entire house bathrooms kitchen laundry room dining rooms bedroom everything it starts at 8am finish at 2:30 depending on how dirty and amount of times it has to recharge and resume cleaning as you send it out daily it will determine if the area is clean enough and focus more time on where it feels it dirty but does every area until sensors say it’s clean

**Q: How long does it take to recharge itself?**
A: I’ve been running it daily after receiving for 2 weeks now. It runs about 1 hour 15 minutes before recharging itself. If the job is not complete, it will charge for about 30-45 minutes then leave to finish the job that was almost complete. Manual says approx 3hrs for full charge

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ i3 vs. German Shepherd
*by A***O on April 20, 2022*

I've used a super cheap Shark robot vac for a few years. For the price, it did a good job, but you always had to pull dog hair off of the brush after. It would get wrapped around. It also left what I call "braids" of dog hair behind on the floor. My Shark was getting really long in the tooth and had multiple broken parts, so I broke down and bought this vac, since people said it was good when it came to pet hair. Firstly - If you are looking for a vac that will pull German Shepherd hair out of a run and not tangle, this isn't it. This one doesn't tangle like the Shark did, but it doesn't suck everything up. It leaves a lot more "braids" than my Shark did. This isn't because it's worse than the Shark I had, it's because it's a lot more powerful and is pulling stuff up that Shark could never dream of. However, it still leaves it behind. My next fear with this vac was the wall unit. Could it really suck the dog hair it picked up out of the vac? Yes. It really does pull everything out of the vac. The only crappy part is that it puts it in a bag. I know why they do this, but still, it's something that's going to have a very short shelf life when you own a German Shepherd. Some people complain about the noise this thing makes. It's less noisy than a regular vac. It doesn't really bother me, since it's doing a good job. The wall tank is super noisy when it pulls dirt out of the unit. It's almost shockingly loud. Some people complain about the app. I'm not sure why. I've used bad apps. This isn't one of them. I've had zero problems with the app or trying to figure it out. If you can get this on sale, it's worth it. I would not pay full price for it though. At that price point it's very expensive. I got it on sale and at that price point, I'm happy with the value it offers.
