Roomba i3+

I'm so angry at my stupid $400 Roomba. It has NEVER mapped my house successfully, and hasn't even made it out of its room in a year. Most of the time it just sits on its stupid charging station complaining about something. (iRobot Roomba Combo i3+) It was about as expensive as TWO of my previous rob

The i3 is no longer a current model. The i5 has replaced the i3. This sounds like they’re just going to send you the unit without any other accessories, which makes sense. A retail i5 would likely come with a charging dock/or clean base. This sounds like you’ll get just the unit. It’s legit IMO. iRo

I now have two Roombas (iRobot brand): the i6+ and i3+ both secondhand purchased. They both work great.

Then I ordered a new bumper/RCON from Amazon, installed it, and it began working properly. If your’s is less than

I had this exact issue with a replacement i5+ self-emptying they sent me for a brand-new but faulty i3+. My errors were mainly “E9 bumper errors” with it occasionally getting “stuck” in the middle of a room or corner. So I reached back out to warranty (I bought the i3+ 4/17 but stupidly threw away t

If it is under warranty I would call customer care and escalate to a supervisor or “iRobot Escalated Support”. I was able to talk to them the first time and it’s been all via email since (I tried calling and wasted 2 hrs and got no where.) as I’ve had the same issue with my brand new i3+ self-emptyi
