Gadget Guts: iRobot Roomba 880
Ғылым және технология
Robot vacuums have been around for almost 20 years now. They clean, they shoot lasers, they function as taxis for pets, and they’re probably going to take over the world some day. Like any electronic gadget, Roombas break. You might think there is no way you can disassemble a Roomba, but Kelsea from iFixit can help. Today, she recruited her own iRobot Roomba 880 vacuum-just to see how it works!
Keep up with all of Kelsea's Fixing adventures on twitter and Instagram @TheKelseaWeber.
Check out a story Kelsea wrote on how to maintain your vaccum!

You forgot to mention the front caster wheel is black and white like that because it's an optical speedometer.
Interesting demo thanks for sharing.
I ori My Roomba arrived Saturday🌼 and I am in love. This is machine's cleaning ability exceeded my expectations. I have 2 house cats, one of which is a long hair. The Roomba handled the cat hair no with problem. I was shocked how much hair was picked up on my (I thought) pretty clean floors.
It would have been nice if you had shown the removal of the Y screw at 3:25 and even discussed what size Y screwdriver is needed to do that.
Those triangle head screws will come clean out using a 2.0mm flat head screwdriver without stripping the head. You are a lot more likely to have that flathead and I and I am telling this from experience!
the bin also contains the suction fan as well. you forgot to mention it
I purchased my Roomba 880 exactly 2 yrs and 8 moths ago. I have hardwood floors only. The front caster wheel just broke; other than that, I've had no problems. It still cleans great. My question is, when should I replace my debris extractor rollers? What do I look for besides not cleaning properly. It's been almost 3 years since I purchased and I've read somewhere you should replace every 6 months. Is that correct or is it when they actually get worn down?
I fixed many roombas and the bumper switches are not the metal "spring" lever you showed us ;) most repairs were for the ir led inside the bumpers switches, the IR receivers were designed to have early defect ...

the receivers are most of the time ok, the infra LEDs or the emittors are usually bad. And they are not made to broke after few uses, they are actually pretty high quality, but they just sometimes burn, it is same like with the LED bulbs, where are lots of LEDs, and after many uses some of the LEDs just burns, so there are few black spots in the bulb.
Do you have repair guides on aeg dryers because I'm fixing my aunts dryer
