Do they adjust going from: carpet to hardwood and not get stuck? Worth the money?

Yes. I have one and love it. Don't waste your money on the mop version of it because it's an expensive piece of shite.

They're great, but beware with pets.

I had incident like this with my dog, but it was on the hardwood.

Cleaning out the Roomba was a pain in the arse, but it did not ruin the carpet.

Are they full by the end of the day and you just empty it?

The pics have to have kitties on them or it's not fun. I saw someone put an actual shark on their vacuum with the mask.

Depends on how filthy your floors are. They'll let you know if you need to empty them.

What kind of nasty bastard keeps a non house broke dog inside.

Bought one about 3 yrs ago. It worked great for the first year. Started having charging problems...It would go back to charge not long after starting to vacuum. I bought a new battery online and had the same problem after a month, or so.

I'm sure they have gotten better, I'm just giving you my experience.

Every couple days. It's not time consuming. You can program them to start running at a certain time every day,which is nice.

Occasionally, they will get stuck, but I only see that come up about once a week.

Works like a charm. Have it run once a day while I'm gone. Empty once every other day or so. Goes from wood to tile to carpet just fine and gets over the little wood divider between the rooms as well.

Dogs have accidents, it's not uncommon. Have you never shite in your pants?

Doesn't really seem worth the money. Plus that's what women are for.

Thanks I am looking for first-hand honest reviews. You can't always trust the ones on the internet; because people get reward points at some places to review.

I'm going to guess that cajunangelle is probably not so much in agreement with you on that one.
