Roomba
 
I've been on the roomba forums lurking and reading... any owners here?

GermanStar 01-16-2006 05:12 PM

Yup. Do a search -- I started a Roomba thread about a year or so ago...

Hi,

Found that one... it seems they have improved a bit (2.1 rel.) etc.

I picked up a refurb. with a *new* batt. for half price on Amazon, with a dog and LOTS of traffic, I'm psyched if it helps keeps things clean around here. I figure the dog will freak out over it, but we'll all just have to have a chat!

I'm on my fourth one now -- that's one purchased and three warranty replacement units. When they work, they work well, but I've had more than my fair share of breakdowns.....

Next to cell phones, and fast food, roombas sound like a real waste. How lazy can a single person be!

GottaDiesel 01-16-2006 10:56 PM

You are SO right! Cell phones are a total waste.

:confused:

MUCH AGREED. CELL PHONE = WASTE. ROOMBA = interesting idea but unless a big/busy house hold useless unless for entertainment.

I guess it was morbid curiosoty that started it, but after five minutes of surfing the roomba forum, I am a little freaked out :eek: . God help us all.

We would love to have one, but with rugs in each room and a lot (too much) of antique furniture that is very low to the ground, it wouldn't work. For instance, we have an 8 chair dining room table and a 4 chair pub table in the kitchen. After moving all of the chairs to another room, it is a piece of cake to go ahead and vaccuum. If I had one of those mod Cali houses with glass walls and no furniture, I imagine it would be awesome!
