I haven’t tried the highest end models but my mid tier roomba certainly doesn’t. That’s the biggest issue with it, you need to be a very tidy person already for it to work for you. Leave a purse or backpack on the floor in the corner? Shoes by the door? Much less some toys. The roomba is gonna get stuck on a strap or shoelace or something. You can block off dedicated areas with their virtual walls, but need to make sure you never leave anything on the ground outside of those areas. There’s also a bug where any high contrast rug, like any light rug with a stripe or pattern, confuses the stair sensors so roomba thinks it’s “stuck on a cliff”. There’s no way to turn this off even if you promise the roomba that you live in a one-story apartment. So on days that I want to run the roomba, not only do I need to tidy up first but need to fold up the rug and make sure it’s off the floor. Maybe in my household we’re just messier than average, but the roomba is certainly not a set it and forget it kind of device. I also have a cordless vacuum and I’ve gone back to just manually vacuuming once a week, the roomba might still save a bit of time over all but the mental overhead of babysitting it is ultimately not really worth it for me.
