Mr. Roombato

Hi everyone, welcome to my channel! I review robot vacuums and mops in a very imperfect house with kids, dogs, cats, ferrets and parrots. The messes they create represent the extreme of what the average household will experience, and I use all of the products I review for at least a month before I share my experiences so that you can know what to expect in your home.

    Makes no sense that Roomba engineers did not use polygons - modern OO-code makes this elementary. It’s easier to conclude they intentionally omitted this routine, basic feature.

    This is perfect!!! Before watching this video I tried everything from degreasing the platform and the wheels to even using sand paper on the wheels. I did notice that the ridges on the plastic pad had worn out and I was going to use sanding paper with double sided tape. But this solution hits it out of the park. Thank you!!!

    Well you proved my suspicions are right and I've only had mine for a day or two. I have Pergo laminate whether satin type finish and started noticing scratches right away. The brushes are very soft so I don't know where the scratches are coming from but this is a great review and I hope more people see it. Probably a great product for everything but hardwood or laminate flooring.

    Tks for the video. Just got my i8 yesterday and am trying to learn it for two floors. The app isn’t always clear. Good to hear you have parrots, so do I, the main reason I got this. But I still have not mastered the mapping for two different floors but working on it. Oddly mine did not say anything about three mapping runs. Now let’s see how it does on those seeds. Tks again.

    This was a brilliant test. I'm currently shopping for a new robot vacuum since my trusty 6 year old Neato D7 is no longer supported. At the top of my list was the Roomba S9+, but now I'm rethinking that since half of my floors are laminate. I also encountered floor-marring issues with the D7 though, since every time it left it's base, would move forward a few inches, stop, and spin the brushes for a while. This left a shiny spot on the laminate over the years where the brushes were constantly buffing the floor. In addition, the D7 really did a number on the hallway Berber carpet by fraying the loops. After a few months of use, I banned the vacuum from going onto any carpeted areas. Hoping to find a good vac soon that will work well on all floor types. Meanwhile, my powerful Kenmore upright is still working great after 20 years.

    Great video and my first time with a mapping roomba, i3, missed my kitchen and family room completely which is an area north of living/dining. Worst then the mopping m6 which skipped areas near walls etc. I will try the foot approach, when time to replace any recommended vacuums with self emptying and lidar?

    Like a drunk home from the bar. And footsies with the robot. You are very funny, my dude! HAH! Very informative, too. And I agree with @BabakHamedani -- music is very distracting (if not at a very low level, sans-lyrics, or classical), and it usually drowns out words that you are trying to hear being said in the video. Graphics also are usually poorly placed and cover parts of the tutorial you WANT/NEED to see. So...domo arigato, Mr. Roombato! xD

    Great video. I noticed you have a cat with birds. Do you allow your birds out? I found a parrot and altho my Rottie is great with him. I don't think we could ever have a cat again. Any comments re: cat and parrot ownership? BTW, I am frustrated with my s9 roomba/Braava Mop 6 combo. First, the vacuum base had to be replaced as it would not auto empty bin. Second, the mop had to be replaced because it never shut off while charging and they sent a new one - WITHOUT A NEW BATTERY!!! I had a constant night light for 6 weeks and concerned about battery longevity. Stupidly I deleted the first map that was done great. Now I am remapping as I forgot to pick up rugs. However, the new map completely ignored my entire dining room and it will not allow me to add 'new cleaning zone suggestion'. No matter what. I have spoken to 5 real nice people for irobot, they just have a very difficult time speaking English. They have fixed everything and I love their products, but it is very frustrating to constantly get errors or issues. Thanks for listening and if you have a suggestion for the constant error trying 'to edit the suggested clean zone', I am all ears. I can't find anything on support that addresses 'unable to edit the suggestion clean zone suggestion'. Thanks

    Yes, I let the birds out. The cat doesn't bother them. Although he'll kill wild birds if he gets out of the house, he knows not to mess with the birds inside the house. I don't know, I never taught him, he just knows. Sorry I can't help with the vacuum stuff, I stopped doing this about a year ago.

    The main downside to Lidar from what I can see is height. It is better for mapping but would not fit under my couch. With 2 large dogs and all the fur this is a highly needed feature for us. But this would not be an issue for others. might be the reason they are not using it.
