Summary: Experience not perfect but would buy again...
Comment: Worked perfectly for 35 days. At that point it suddenly quit working and I contacted iRobot. I had to pay to ship the robot to them and it took about 3 weeks from when mine quit to when I got the replacement. Their customer service gave me absolutely no problems about getting another and responded to my emails very quickly.
I have had the replacement for about a month and it has functioned very well so far. It maneuvers under chairs, around table and under couch. In fact, I am so impressed with the thing that I bought my sister one. She in turn liked it so well that she bought Scoobas for herself and for me. As far as I am concerned, if the Roomba makes it 6 months it has paid for itself because it is easily worth $1 a day to have clean floors without having to vacuum! Anything after 6 months is just bonus to me and I will happily buy another when this one goes.

Summary: Love my Roomba
Comment: I love my Roomba. My floors (hardwood) have never been so clean. I have two cats that shed a lot. After letting the roomba go, my floors were cleaner than anytime I sweep.

Love it. The roomba works well for me, beacuse I can easily "hide" any power cords before I let the roomba go, I don't have tons of furniture and my rooms are large and open. If you have lots of furniture, floor lamps, rugs with fringes on them or power cords running around the roomba might not be for you.

Summary: Works Great
Comment: First time I used the Roomba I was embarrassed at how much dust was on my floor. I had to run it 3 times to clean my small carpeted studio.

I have had the Roomba for a few weeks now and it is still working well. I would not get the scheduler. I didn't clear out the apartment well one day and left a stack of papers on the floor by my desk. The Roomba ate through them like a dog would.

The recharging bases yes. Now I make sure the floor is clean then press the button on the Roomba and the virtual walls on the way out. When I get back the Roomba is recharging and the dust bin is full.

Summary: Must have for small apartments with pets
Comment: I own 2 cats, always indoors, and my apartment is all hardwood floors with a few throw rugs. I schedule Roomba to go on a mission every weekday while I'm at work, and leave the bedroom doors open so it can get to all 500 square feet. Every day, I come home, my floors are clean, and Roomba is back on its charger full of cat hair. It's amazing!

After the first few missions, I found that I could get away with emptying it out every other day, as long as I clean it out on Monday (since it has to make up for the weekend days). It's so good that sometimes I completely forget about it for a few days, until one day I come home and find it parked in the middle of the floor because it was so full of cat hair it couldn't go on.

It is such a great feeling being able to walk around barefoot in my place and having no fur or dirt on my feet afterwards! I also am glad that the occasional stray kitty-litter pebble that the cats track around (amazingly far sometimes) gets cleaned up every day no problem. Speaking of which, my cats were pretty suspicious of it the first week or so, but never had any big freakouts. Nowadays they just flatten their ears a bit in annoyance, and then go somewhere they know it won't go -- like the bed, or the bathroom (there's a ledge so it doesn't go in there).

I got this one refurbished, and the only reason that I can think of not to is the shorter warranty. I did recently have to superglue a bit of rubber on the underside that was coming off, and the whirly sidebrush (that doesn't really do anything) vanished into thin air within the first week (seriously, I still have no idea where it went). I've had it four months now, so maybe if I had the warranty I would send it in at this point and try to get those two things fixed.

My brother, who lives in a studio apartment with carpet and three little dogs also loves his Roomba and is the one who recommended it to me. Overall, I think anybody with a pet should have one.
