re: Roomba vs traditional vacuum

I have a roomba 960 (might be an 80, idk) and time throughout my entire house with a boxer who sheds relentlessly

The roomba has been everything I’ve needed, and I have zero complaints after about 2 years of use. Between my two kids and my dog, this thing has taken a beating and has been reliable as frick.

When I first got it, I thought it was a gimmick, or not nearly as good as advertised, but not was I wrong. We let the thing run one time, and I got on the floor and rolled around with black sweatpants and a black hoodie on, and I had zero dog hair on my clothes after.


Like someone earlier said, you’ll still need to spot sweep and vacuum every now and then, but this machine is incredible.


Forgot to mention that in two years, I’ve been through only two sets of rollers and six filters, so the maintenance has been minimal

I hate the Roomba. Doesn't do a great job. Can't run when not home in case dog or cat shits/poops. Takes forever to vacuum.

Yea, blame the roomba because you didn’t properly train your dog. And yet again blame the roomba for taking too long for doing YOUR job


It’s like people don’t realize how entitled they are
