The original unit had a faulty home base, but was promptly replaced. The unit works well. However, a few spots still need a quick follow up with a normal vacuum after a clean, typically spots where there wasn't enough space for the robots to navigate through i.e.

No more stress over dirty floors and needing to drag the vacuum out - just tell 'Alexa' to get Roomba to clean and it's done! Emptying the small dustbin and pulling hair out of the wheels (easy) are the only maintenance tasks to do.

Mashable Choice highlights the best of everything we cover, have experienced first-hand and would recommend to others. We have a ritual in my house. I bring home a random gadget, deposit it somewhere in my home and my wife asks me what it is, gives me side-eye and then ignores the gear until it is...

I love this product and I really appreciate the sales associate's attention. Jose Saavedra is my favorite clerk. His attention is excellent.
