Full Analysis

The Roomba is a Self-Emptying Vacuums product from iRobot. A Roomba is an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner made by the company iRobot, and was first introduced in September 2002. Roombas have a set of sensors which help them navigate the floor area of a home. These sensors can detect the presence of obstacles and steep drops. Noise level stays low enough to run during a video call in another room. It handles the transition between hardwood and low-pile rug without getting stuck. Our editorial team scores it 4.5/5 based on typical specs, feature set, and price-to-value for this category, alongside 693 community ratings, making it a very good choice for most buyers within robot vacuums.

Our Verdict

At approximately $244.95, the Roomba lands as a very good choice for most buyers. If easy to set up out of the box matters most to you, it is worth shortlisting alongside other self-emptying vacuums.
