iRobot Roomba 440 cleans routinely…so you do not have to. iRobot Roomba’s powerful vacuum and counter-rotating brushes reach deep into your carpet to remove dust, dirt and pet hair. This entry-level robotic floorvac is easy to use and includes an array of convenient features. Simply press the "clean" button and the unit will vacuum the whole floor, adjusting automatically to any floor surface including wood, tile linoleum, and low-to-medium pile carpet. The Roomba is small enough to even go under the furniture that no upright can do. The vacuum's artificial intelligence determines the room size and adjusts the run time to ensure that it cleans the entire floor. Integrated sensors detect dirt and will increase the focus and intensity of cleaning in that area, while infra-red cliff sensors in the non-marring bumper detect stairs to keep the unit from falling. Model 440 also includes virtual walls that tell Roomba where to clean by restricting off-limit areas. Just remember a Roomba cleans routinely…so you do not have to.. Each Roomba 440 comes with 1 - 440 Roomba; 2 - virtual walls; 1 - power supply; 1 - rechargeable battery; 1 - extra filter; 1 - brush cleaning tool; 1 - year limited warranty

Great in concept, sadly not well executed for the long run. If you're thinking of buying a Roomba, based on my experience you should assume that it will *not* last beyond your warranty. My Roomba started acting up after only light use, but as it was out of warranty I was out of luck. After a few polite if canned responses from their offshore "customer support" I was told that my Roomba's constant spinning was not repairable. A call followed with a naive sales pitch that I find hard to believe would work with *anybody*. My Roomba was obviously defective, why would I want another? And why would *you* buy one in the first place? For this price, you have a right to expect more than a year of service. But in this case, I assure you, you can't. The quality of the design and manufacturing clearly needs more time to catch up with the quality of the concept. Until then, I will return to using a more reliable machine that incorporate more resilient -- albeit simpler -- technology.

I got my Roomba for Christmas the year before last and once I got over my initial hurt feelings about getting a vacuum as my big suprise, I really loved it. It did an awesome job of keeping our floors clean and was able to get under pieces of furniture which were really hard work before. I have two dogs, a cat and two small children and it was able to handle that. I had just had my second child and so the roomba was such a help, when nothing else was getting done, the floors still always looked clean. I think it's a great appliance for anyone who has just had a baby. I also really appreciate it when we have guests over as I could be cooking or whatever else while the floors were getting vacuumed, it feels like an extra pair of hands. I do need to use our old vacuum to go around the edges of the carpet every month or so.
Unfortunately after 5 months it stopped working. I contacted customer service who were really slow and would email every couple of days to get me to try different ways of getting it to work. I would email them right back to let them know that hadn't worked and then wait a couple more days to get another suggestion. After a couple of weeks of that they sent me a new one. It worked for a couple of months then the battery failed. We replaced the battery and since then it's been very hit and miss. We've replaced the battery again but it goes through spells when it doesn't work, then inexplicably works again for a while. You get so used to not sweeping or vacuuming manually that when you have to do it it feels like a huge imposition!
While it's worked I have absolutely loved it and can't believe that everyone doesn't have one. I would honestly say it saves me about 3 or 4 hours a week. I just really wish it had worked better for longer. That said I am absolutely going to get a new one soon!

I love the concept. They just aren't reliable enough for me. I went through 3 in 3 months. The first one had a bad battery. The second one started going in circles after 2 weeks. The third one stopped picking up dirt. The gears that turn the brushes stopped working. Never figured out why. I generally have a very clean home. So, it wasn't operator error. I still want one... but I want one that is going to last. I was happy with the cleaning it did. They are kind of noisy. They bang into everything in order to change direction (at least until they learn the floor plan). I loved the remote, the docking station that it parks itself in when it needs a charge. Irobot, I still have all the accessories. It's time you pony up and make them so they last!

My Roomba has been a savior! I recently had spine surgery and have difficulties doing even the lightest house cleaning task, so I decided to purchase the Roomba, just to get me through the recovery period. But, "she" is so thorough and does such a nice job, I will continue to use "her" even after my recovery is over. I bought the basic model which included 2 virtual walls, but I've decided to now purchase a docking station. Then, my Roomba will be able to go directly to her home on her own when she needs re-charging, instead of "singing" her little song advising me that she is finished a room and needs re-charging. I am very pleased with my iRobot and wish I had purchased one years ago. Don't hesitate!

I bought this roomba from Target. I was very disappointed in the job it did. We have mostly hardwood and area rugs. I can imagine the roomba would do better with wall-to-wall carpeting, if you were willing to roll up your rugs every time you ran it or in a house that doesn't have pets. In our situation it just wasn't worth it. I tried letting the roomba run on the main floor while I was upstairs. It would run for about an hour and do a pretty half-assed job. It didn't come close to getting the floor against the wall or in corners clean. The unit was also loud enough that it was annoying to be in the house while it was running, even on a different floor.
