I have a roomba and never use it :( The tiny compartment that holds the dirt is too small. And I'm constantly having to dig out my wife and daughter's hair.

I have a roomba and never use it :( The tiny compartment that holds the dirt is too small. And I'm constantly having to dig out my wife and daughter's hair. Granted, it's 5+ years old - maybe they've improved. But in my experience it just doesn't have the strength and capacity to be something other than a conversation starter. Oh, and it keeps getting stuck in the living room...
- danudey 10y agoRoombas aren't for deep cleaning; they're basically for the light cleaning (crumbs in the kitchen, tufts of pet hair). Newer models are easier to maintain (no brush to cut hair off), but you're still expected to do a proper deep clean (with a more powerful vacuum) regularly. Also, newer ones are automated, so you come home every day, empty the canister, and that's your floors cleaned.
