Roomba cleans quite well. But, bring lunch - 54 square feet of hard flooring took almost 45 minutes and it wasn’t especially dirty to begin with. Bring earplugs - roomba is as loud as the average vacuum. Don’t bring carpet fringe - roomba either tears off or jams. Don’t bring a truss - it’s light, so carrying it up and down in my 3 floor house is no problem. Don’t worry about steps - it really won’t go tumbling down! No regrets.

I purchased my Roomba about 2 years ago. I am disabled and can’t run a normal vac so I do this in between regular cleanings. It is amazing what it can do! I love it and it’s been a life saver for me. Would highly recommend it for anyone else.

It is OK for you in the States, but us poor Brits have to pay over the odds - I have [on your commendation] ordered a Rooba silver at $384, sigh!

I’ve had the Roomba since it first hit the market and I love it. The only drawback I’ve seen is the battery doesn’t last long enough. My house isn’t huge, 1450 sq. ft, and I have to recharge it before it finishes the job. But it does do an amazing job!
