iRobot Roomba 880 review

 

While there's no denying that this vacuum does a great job at cleaning floors, we're just not convinced that the extra features it boasts make it worth the exorbitant pricetag.

Get the dirt on this new robot vac

 

The iRobot Roomba 880 outshines its Roomba 790 predecessor and carries the brand to a new level of robot vacuum awesomeness.

The ; replaces its predecessor's bristly brushes with rubbery "extractors" as part of the new AeroForce cleaning system. This brushless technology removes debris better than previous iterations and keeps maintenance to a minimum.

The bin is supposedly larger than in previous Roomba models, but it still fills up too quickly when you're dealing with dust and shedding pets. That, and it costs $699.

The Roomba 880 is the most well-rounded, capable bot we've encountered so far, but the $449 Neato Robotics XV Signature Pro still wins the pet hair performance test on all flooring surfaces.

iRobot Roomba 880

 

The iRobot Roomba 880 is a powerful upgrade over the Roomba 790, but even though it sucks (dirt up) more it's basically the same robotic vacuum.

Powerful vacuum for its size. Can be controlled and scheduled to fit your needs. Brushless design helps prevent tangles.

Very expensive. Complicated home layouts require planning and accessories, or watching the vacuum and controlling it manually.

The iRobot Roomba 880 can vacuum with gusto and has plenty of useful features, but whether it's worth upgrading over the 790 isn't as clear. If you have pets that shed, the new brushless system might be worth it. It's still incredibly expensive for a...

iRobot Roomba 880 - Helpful Robot Cleaner

 

The Roomba 880 is iRobot's latest robotic vacuum cleaner. It features the Aeroforce Performance Cleaning System as well as Aeroforce cleaning extractors, which iRobot claims to be tangle-free. We spent some time with it to see if it can really help...

Excellent navigation ; Tangle-resistant extractors and sweeping brush ; Good suction performance ; Two Virtual Wall Lighthouse devices

Pricey ; Inelegant dustbin release mechanism ; Only one sweeping brush ; A tad noisy

Unfortunately, the convenience that the Roomba 880 offers comes at a high price,

iRobot Roomba 880 review: Cleans, so you don't have to

 

Robot vacuum cleaners, such as the iRobot Roomba 880, are interesting little gadgets. They are far from cheap, costing the best part of £500, but for that mighty lump of cash they take one of the worst household chores off your hands. The iRobot Roomba...

Nice design, great cleaning ability, good battery life, easy scheduling, simple to operate, Virtual Wall accessories

Expensive, can't manage higher pile rugs, doesn't always detect objects, noisy, presence of Virtual Wall accessories

The iRobot Roomba 880 is a great looking and great performing robot vacuum cleaner. It does exactly what it sets out to do, offering good suction, great cleaning power and a decent battery life to keep your floors spic and span.

iRobot Roomba 880 review

 

Much like Dyson brand vacuums, I had heard my fair share of iRobot hype before I began testing the Roomba 880. I even had visions of following in Tom Haverford's footsteps and building a "DJ Roomba" of my very own. Sadly, my dreams of channeling "Parks...
