iRobot Cleaning Crew: Final Thoughts on Roomba 780, Scooba 230, Scooba 390 (Part 4 of 4)

 

I have to admit that I'm a victim of modern-day cynicism: In the beginning, I was certain that these three bots would be overpriced toys that could only do a negligible amount of cleaning, and I was almost positive they'd run into obstacles or other...

The thought of futuristic home care is pretty exciting. Nothing would impact our day-to-day lives more than having a clean, well-kept sanctuary, and if technology can let us have that with very minimal maintenance, that's a reason to cheer. Anyone…

iRobot 700 Series, Roomba 780 Review

 

It has been a few years since iRobot released new models of their prestigious Roomba series vacuum cleaning robots. Well 2011 not only brings one, but three different Roomba's in the all new 700 series. The Roomba 700 series was first announced late...

Improved battery life, bumper is softer on walls, touchpanel on 780 model is a neat feature even if it tags more on to the price, HEPA filter, remote control, and larger dirt bin. Between both the iAdapt and the Persistent Pass Cleaning Pattern...

Pricey and cleanup is still a bit time consuming especially if you have long hair

The Roomba 780 is a robotic workhorse. I really put it through its paces, to see if it overcame some of my past gripes I had with the Roomba 562. This newer generation seems like it floats on air around your home and it will get every piece of dirt –...

iRobot Roomba 780

 

The first robot vacuum to truly deserve its title? Yes indeed.

Excellent navigation system ; Good cleaning across all surfaces ; Simple scheduling system ; Doesn't damage objects it passes over ; Quieter than rivals

You will still need to vacuum occasionally ; Can bump doors, locking itself in rooms ; Expensive solution to a simple task

iRobot Roomba 780 Vacuum Cleaning Robot

 

Thanks to its pioneering functionality, Roomba 780 comes up to the expectations of sophisticated users.

The Roomba Combo j7+ is pretty good at cleaning and really good at not eating phone chargers

 

iRobot took forever to release a true robot-mop combo — and now, there's plenty of competition. Was it worth the wait?

Frequently on sale for under $900 ; Almost never gets lost or stuck ; Really does avoid phone chargers ; Doesn't get carpet or rugs wet ; Self-empty dock is quite compact ; Quieter than s9+, especially on carpet

The Roomba j7+ will probably get stuck less than any other robot vacuum on the market. The mopping aspect of the Combo j7+ isn't the most intense scrub you'll find, but overall satisfactory cleaning and little need for human intervention make it a...

iRobot Roomba 780 review

 

The Roomba is a robotic vacuum cleaner that's no gimmick, says Matt Warman.

The key question, then, is whether a Roomba is worth the money. Assuming (unkindly) that it lasts just two years and costs £300 more than its manual equivalent, then if you do a half an hour’s vacuuming a week, then it equates to roughly a £6 charge...
