Teachers of Reddit, what are your most terrifying "Gen Alpha Can't Read/Behave/Etc." horror stories?
I'm GenX. I just bought a Roomba S9+ for super cheap at a thrift store. Took it home, and it worked pretty well, but it kept stopping with an error code that it was near an edge - there was no edge. After a bunch of rebooting and easy troubleshooting, it still had the same issue. More reading led me

Quick question, do u guys life in your households? Cause my roomba gets caught on everything
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

Vacuumed & mopped less than 12 hours ago. Can you guess what kind of dog I have? 😂
Nope! The one I have has a vacuum base that it empties itself on, so if it gets full it just makes a trip to the base, empties out, and continues. Specifically I have a Roomba s9+ that's served me pretty well, but it's old so I'm sure there are better ones out there these days.

Model?
S9+. The best and worst Roomba I’ve ever had. It red ringed four times due to “internal communication error” so I make iRobot take it back. I have a cheaper one now that gives me no problems. If this is cheap, go for it! If they fixed the problems with the software and it doesn’t red ringed on you,

What's a hygiene habit that people don't talk about but really should?
How though? I have the roomba s9 plus (top of the line when I bought it) and as much as I love it, it requires almost constant maintenance. Every 2-3 days it stops running and gives me a message about filters or brushes. I wish I could ignore a filter for 6 months but if I did it would just not be r

It finally died...
Got it and have used it once to vacuum and mop. First thoughts are that its 1000x better than the old Roomba s9+. It uses lidar to map the rooms, took 5 mins to do our whole first floor. Then about 1 hour to vac and another hour to mop. It seems to do a good job, it picked up all the dog fur for sur

Which robot vacuum works the best? Tired of vacuuming constantly.
Yeah, we went from a top-of-the-line-4-years-ago Roomba S9+ to a just-under-top-of-the-line Roborock 10r this winter. It is amazing how much better the 10r is! The only places the S9 did better are related to overly-broad patents iRobot still holds (being able to detect when a dust bin is full so it

Roomba vs Goldens?
We have 2 Golden’s. The Roomba S9+ did a very good job at keeping up with them. Sadly, after a couple of years it developed Alzheimer’s and would loose its firmware once a week. I have replace it with a Roborock and the dog hair causes it to have a nervous breakdown weekly … 😕

Can a property manager force me to get rid of my robot vacuum?
Haha I’m so sorry for you ! It was very frustrating! I got the most stupidly expensive (and highest rated) vac at the time - research told me the key was suction. It’s an iRobot Roomba s9+ (now this was 4 years ago and may no longer be best). Vacuum still runs very well and I’m very happy with it -
