iRobot® Roomba® 650 Vacuum Cleaning Robot
Product details
Web ID: 2495403No good on ANY rugs
It's ok on the laminate and hardwood floor, but I have to carpet runners beside the bed. VERY short pile. Roomba turns around as soon as it barely touches them. Otherwise it's ok, but cliff sensors don't work very well. It's been half hung off a step when I arrive home almost every time. Had to buy lighthouse sensors to prevent this

Jerry is my main man.
First of let me say, Jerry is family now. He's had more accidents than a puppy but he is learning and we all love him like one of our own. I got Jerry as a rescue from a family who didn't fit his needs and didn't appreciate the work that he did. So at first I was a little skeptical as to how he would adjust to his new surroundings. I was worried at first but upon our first meeting I knew it was going to be a great friendship. I have had him for just under a year now and I don't know what I did before I got him. He adjuated perfectly, worked diligently and never once complained. He got a little noisy at times, but you know how pets can be. I made him his own little bed under the TV stand and thats where he sleeps most everyday (except for the nights he is caught up in a tangled mess somewhere). He comes out once or twice a day, makes his rounds and goes right back to his house. He's a great companion. Very simple and easy to take care of, and i only have to change him once or twice a week! One thing I have notices is Jerry likes shoes and loose shoelaces. Many times I have come home and a few of my shoes will be scattered around the house. But it isnt his fault, it's only natural. I should know better than to leave things in his reach. Jerry also isn't the best with pets, he isn't a huge fan of dog hair but he does his absolute best and you can't be mad at the poor little guy for it. He also has been afraid of black rugs, probably because he thinks it's a big hole in the ground. Jerry is the best roommate I have ever had, and I will be bringing him with me wherever I go. He's a loyal little rascal, a hard worker and a cute little guy. I think it might be time to find him another rescue brother or sister. 12/10 would recommend

Good value - works as advertised
Rhett lens twice a week and since the pets are now gone their har tangling the brush is no longer an issue. Random pattern cleaning may miss a spot or two

cannot believe this is a successful product
I set the unit out to go, and in an hour or so, it has picked up less debris than a 10 minute manual vacuum job would do. Then, to make things worse, it requires at least 30 minutes of cleaning and maintenance to make it ready for another round of cleaning, or lack thereof. In a busy household with kids and pets, this device is completely useless.

Great!
We own 8 birds and so we have been looking at getting something that will help spot clean for us, as our actual vacuum cleaner is on it's last legs and is very heavy. (I have nerve damage in my arms.) The Roomba 650 was recommended for us due to it's features, efficiency and price. We live upstairs, so we needed a bot that had cliff sensors, but wasn't too expensive and so far it's been a godsend! After only two days of using it we are seeing the benefits already. It was very easy to set up, all we had to do was remove the battery label and dock it to charge overnight, program in the schedule by only pressing the schedule button and altering the times (VERY easy) and away he went! Waking up, uncovering our feathered kids and not having to deal with seed and other mess on the bottom of our feet is amazing and the carpets feel fresher and nicer underfoot, which is an added bonus. The only thing is that he does get stuck from time to time and he misses the odd bit here and there, but he gets to it with a couple of nudges. He's not too loud, the birds aren't too bothered by him and he's very easy to clean. (Just try to remember to pick up things before he starts wandering around. Today he ate my earbuds and he got angry with me for picking him up to retrieve them.)

Best thing ever
I love this robot -- we have three dogs and the same amount of cats so you now know why we purchased the Roomba. The only issue we have with this unit is the inability to clean hair out of the black and white ball. It takes us forever to remove hair and this seems to impede the efficiency of movement. Hair also collects around the two main brush ends but at least they can be easily removed for cleaning unlike the black and white swivel ball.

very good,pickup small particles
I use this every week,it does a good job,not perfect like a human would do,but as a machine,it is as good as it gets.
Good product
Love my Roomba, however it is quite noisy, About as noisy as running a regular vacuum. It runs for anout 70 minutes, It does get stuck under some things. My dishwasher is a shade higher than the cabinet edges which is just the height for Roomba to edge under then it gets stuck. I put a block of wood under there to block it. It also seems to get stuck under one edge of the couch, I put a block there as well. It comes with an accessory to block it from certain areas. I have to use this under my coffee table. The rug is a little more plush than my other and Roomba gets stuck so it's no good for thicker rugs. Works fine on the thinner living room rug. It will tangle on cords and push lighter things around so pick these things up. I've had my Roomba for several months now and it still works great. It's very user friendly and I love that I can schedule it easily or just turn it off from my phone. It will shut off automatically if it gets stuck as well. As a pet owner, this has been a wonderful purchase, I am no longer having to drag out the big vacuum to pick up the constant dog hair. I have a shepherd mix that sheds a lot. I do have to empty the debris cup daily because of this. For non pet owners, emptying once or twice a week is all that should be needed, it runs better in open spaces ( what doesn't ?) without a lot of tight places but it seems to figure out how to get around. It either pushes the dog toys out of the way or goes around. Hope this helps. My only complaint is the noise for 70 minutes but it does cover a large area very well. It does not have the suction of a normal vacuum cleaner, but that's to be expected. All in all, very much worth the money.
