My house gives my friend hives
For your current vacuum, put in earbuds and your fave music. As another commenter said, consider saving up for a robot vacuum. I have the Roomba i3+, which has the self-emptying dock (just swap out the bag in the dock when it gets full). I got it as a Xmas sent from my mom to help with my depression

What’s the best garage accessory you’ve ever purchased?
I really like the iRobot self emptying ones. Got multiple i3s. Straightforward to fix and maintain for car people like us and parts are cheap. Virtual walls to keep it from hazardous stuff are abundant on Amazon and knockoffs work as well as real ones. Don’t ever buy the iHome stuff. Worked for a mo

Please say I don’t have to buy a new one.
Best part of iRobot is most of their components are replaceable and reasonably priced. I'm not positive this will fit your robot but they have these modules for most of their current line. https://www.irobot.com/en_US/roomba-cleaning-head-module-for-roomba-i3-and-j7-series/4706166.html I once had an

How do you clean your floor everyday?
I have a Roomba i3+ and I like it. But I can't make any comparisons because this is the only one I've ever had. My only suggestion is to definitely get the clean base that automatically sucks the dirt from the roomba to a bag in the base. Otherwise you have to empty it by hand every time it runs. Bu

Robotic vacuums suited to Dane shed?
I have the Roborock Qrevo Plus, and it has been amazing! I have light colored floors and a black Dane and black Cocker. The robot runs every night and every morning we have clean floors. I have a 8 month old baby who is crawling so am also on the floor a lot and I’m always amazed by how spotless the

So in the history of all robotics created, what is the best robot vacuum?
I owned iRobot i3 - worked fine, but only real sensor - was front bumper, so he was “dumb”. Best thing about iRobot is that you can replace every part without 3rd party help. I had it for several years, not a single problem whatsoever.

Are Vacuum Robots Really Worth It or Just a Scam?
I have a 4-year-old iRobot Roomba i3 with the self-emptying bin and it has been one of my better purchases. Every few days it is a little bit dumb, getting stuck under chairs or on my ergonomic mat, and it's not terribly fast, but neither is it terribly slow. It runs for a couple of hours a day, spr

What’s one cleaning habit you started in your 30s that actually stuck?
Roomba i3+. We had one of the first versions for about a decade, and upgraded to this one last year. I do check on the rollers and clear them about once a month, but haven’t had any clogs. It’s programmed to run Monday, Wednesday, Friday and it keeps up well.

Will this work with the i3+?
The i3 model is compatible with these. This particular model doesn’t have the “keep out “feature like the i7 in the map settings. These virtual walls work great as a line to keep the roomba from entering into a specific room or area.

i7+ won't stop on battery contacts (new base sensors?)
Hey!Yeah they are shocking. Repairs seem squarely a community thing.So I didnt end up getting DeoxIT but will to improve things. RoombaRefuge knows their stuff. Turns out the top circular sensor - the eye - was the fault. The wires are twisted and eventually snap, I recall reading, so I bought this
