Tools and Hardware Reviews of iRobot Roomba 4220 Discovery SE Intelligent Floorvac Vacuuming Robot, GreyCustomer Review: Great Appliance! Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is great, it sweeps my kitchen and bathroom, and cleans the carpet around the house. I have two kids who are constantly generating crumbs and dirt all over the house, and the roomba sweeps/vacuums them up before they have a chance to be ground into the carpet or get stuck to the kitchen floor. The roomba does not have a powerful vacuum motor, only a small one, so a roomba is not a replacement for a high powered vacuum cleaner. The roomba will prevent you from pulling out the high powered vac every day though, more like once in a great while if you're like me. I run my roomba daily, and end up with a bunch of crumbs, pieces of wrappers, hair, and misc junk each time I empty it, and the filter catches a bundle of carpet lint and dust about half that of what a clothes dryer produces on a normal dry cycle. Beware of things like hair ties, socks, dryer sheets, shoe laces, stray cords, rugs with loose fibers, carpets with loose fibers, as these things can get caught up in the roombas brushes. It is necessary to pick up such items prior to starting your roomba, as these items can cause the roomba to stop mid cycle (it has sensors to protect itself), or in the event of sucking up too many such items, can lead to premature failure of the brush motor. The reliability of roombas is not extremely high, they do fail, especially in very harsh conditions (like mine). I recommend buying a retail package for the 1 year warranty. If you can purchase where extended warranties are offered, that is a good idea as well. You will find this product will save you enough time to pay for itself many times over in the course of a year... and if that isn't enough for you... Remember.. it's just cool.
