Roomba s9+

S9+ It came out in 2019 and is arguably the BEST roomba for straight cleaning performance especially carpet due to its large front rollers and non restrictive rear air exhaust. It still ranks on the top for robot vacuums based on cleaning performance especially on carpet It lacks obstacle avoidance

I’ve had the Dreame L50 Pro Ultra for about two weeks now, and I’m honestly super happy with it. I upgraded from a Roomba S9+, and the difference is night and day. I was really torn between the L40s Pro Ultra, the L50 Pro Ultra, and the X50 Ultra. My home is completely flat (no thresholds/steps), so

The 690 is like the bare bones with very old tech. When iRobot switched to the rubber beater bars that really helped with getting tangled in wires and the cleaning/tracking was much more efficient. The j series brought object detection which means it usually will go around said object. The newest se

The P50 Pro Ultra was frequently returned at release because a lot of people received the unit with a broken front wheel, and the only course of action was to return it and re-order it. There was not a commercially available replacement wheel. I believe there now is a replacement that can be purchas

I started with a mid-range robot and upgraded after a year because pet hair kept clogging it. I moved to a Roomba s9+ and it dropped my manual vacuuming from twice a week to maybe once every 10–14 days. It still won't do stairs, and I still pull out the stick for a couple tight corners and under one

S9 is an amazing bot, and remarkably still very much undefeated for the most part when it comes to actual cleaning performance. And to my knowledge, it’s the only robot vacuum that use HEPA filtering. That being said, there are two major complaints about the bot - the first of which is navigation. I

I think the main issue is expectations. If you're buying a $2500 vacuum you expect it to be the be-all-end-all vacuum, last one you ever have to buy. If you're buying an $800 vacuum you have more realistic expectations. Overall, all robot vacuums are maintenance devices. You still need to manually v

I have a couple S9s and also got the Max 705 last summer. The laser nav is way better than the S9 and previous models and no longer takes a really long time to map. I do find it quieter, unlike other comments here. I run it nightly and after 9+ months, the Max 705 has gotten stuck only a few times w

Well, 2.5k views and no one had a suggestion that was available in the US. The great hive mind that is Reddit failed me and I want my money back. Anyhow I found tires that work seemingly as well as the OEM units. They are grey in color and not as slick as the black ones I tried previously. They have

Honestly, this is exactly why BF/CM is the right time to upgrade. The good news is the big discounts usually do include the higher-end models with self-emptying bases (j7+, j9+, s9+), not just the basic “cable-eating” ones. The newer j-series is much better at avoiding cords and furniture, especiall
