Customer Review: Horrible customer service from iRobot
I ordered the model 560 in February 2008 directly from the iRobot company, and paid by credit card for the model 560. I received a series 400 model, shipped in a large box with NO bubble wrap or packaging materials. Thankfully it did not break. I was able to return the unit to iRobot. However, they neither credited my account NOR did they replace the unit with the model 560 that I originally orderd. After repeated calls, I MIGHT have this straightened out. We’ll see if I actually get a product someday. DO NOT buy from iRobot directly–their customer service is so bad it is nearly criminal.
Customer Review: Wow, what did we do before our Roomba?
i must say that until we had a Roomba, we always thought that we kept our place clean. I mean, we’d usually vacuum and mop at least once a week, even if we’d been out of town all week. Well, it didn’t take us long to see just how clean a home can be with a Roomba. On our first couple of runs we were amazed to see how much stuff it found and we thought the place was clean. It actually stopped early because the bin was full. After a few days, it got up all the stuff that we’d clearly missed and now it just gathers up the new stuff.
We have hard wood floors with some area rugs and no pets but we used to hate wiping the little bit of dirt that always managed to collect on the bottoms of our feet before we jumped into bed. Not anymore. With our Roomba, our floors are spotless.
Our downstairs Roomba’s home is under a built in cabinet in our dining room and it comes out every day while we’re at work and early in the morning on the weekend. Upstairs, our Roomba lives under our bed and she comes out at about the same time every day. Because our place is so clean we only have to empty the bins every week. Cleaning the house every week is now a snap, we just dust the furniture and mop the floors.
Now if only iRobot would make a robot that could go around the house and dust all the furniture for us…
