I WANTED TO BELIEVE THEY WORKED!
Burn me once, I try again! Burn me twice, I feel stupid, but would not give up! Burn me three times, and I am mad! I still can’t believe I bought three of these “toys.”
I have MS. I thought it would be great to be able to vacuum my own floor without feeling so fatigued for a whole day afterwards. It sure sounded like a great idea!
I admit, the first one was a lot of fun. We watched the dog going crazy chasing it. She needs the exercise. She's 14 and lazy. We watched it hit a wall and turn around, come back, and hit the wall again, and again, and again… We watched it getting stuck in the corner and it was almost as if it shook it’s head and backed up and tried again, and again, and again… We did get to see it pick up a few tiny bits of lint off the carpet after the 3rd or 4th rounds. YEA! It Worked!
I think it managed to examine (you certainly couldn’t call it cleaning), about a 6-foot square area before the battery ran down. All this fun took place in approximately 15 minutes. I re-charged it for 48 hours straight. It ran down again after 15 minutes! I priced a new battery pack… $60.00!!! That was almost as much as I paid for the auction I won!
My daughter has a new baby. I thought she could use one. I just knew the odds were on my side this time. Surely, I could not get two that had bad battery packs! Yea! I won another auction and had it sent to her. Her Roomba’s battery runs down in approximately 15 minutes too! BUMMER!
In the meantime, I won an auction for a Sweeper. I wanted it as gift for a friend who has a huge house with wood floors. We sat and watched as “Silver” just pushed the dirt around on the floor. ahhh! I had an idea to spray something on the pad to make it pick up better. Well, that was a bad idea! Enough said! She gave it back to me.
Forget it!
I’ll stick to my old Dirt Devil and wish all of you good luck with your Roomba’s. I wouldn't even try to re-sell mine without a battery pack! It's in the closet, gathering dust along with my friend's Sweeper.
