Customers are mixed about the ease of use of the robotic vacuum cleaner. Some mention it's easy to start up, operate, and clean, and it only takes a couple of minutes. However, others say that it'd be better to have better instructions, it'll be frustrating to use when there are people around, and that it has difficulty navigating around the layout of the house.

"...The 860 appears to be on par with the 650 for pickup power. It is quieter and more purposeful than the 650, which gives the appearance of bumbling..." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the stickiness of the robotic vacuum cleaner. They mention that it gets stuck in some places, especially the hearth. It can also have trouble getting stuck on certain rugs or other things on the floor. It gets stuck underneath the couches constantly, and cords and other things can get stuck and clog it. It does a good job, but it gets caught in tight places and doesn't get much done. It also gets trapped trying to get under their new couch.

"...CONS:1. Gets stuck, Low batt after 45 min, full bin/docking light on for no reason, loss of suction after two weeks, not cleaning ALL areas,..." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the value of the robotic vacuum cleaner. They mention that it's not worth the money, frustrating, and a total waste of their money. The dust/debris in place is very cheap and has already broken. The knock off filters are extremely cheap and tear after a couple of uses. Customers also say that the product is horrible, stupid, and completely unusable.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
When I got the 860 I charged it overnight, and I actually swept a little. I even moved a little furniture. When I first started it, like everyone else, I followed it around watching it clean. It went back to it's charger after 10 minutes because the bin was full! For the next couple of weeks I became an expert at cleaning the filter and emptying the bin. You couldn't see the dust on the floors, but it's almost like it was pulling it out of the tiny cracks between the hardwoods, and it really had a field day under the beds! It goes and cleans in places that I hadn't even thought about, and I find myself standing there and thinking "well, that's a good idea"! It is so powerful, and once it gets your floors in decent condition it will go for 2 hours, easy, because of the lithium ion battery. That is one of the best features about the 860...the only other Irobot that has it is the 980. I did so much research that I feel like I know my robot vacuums inside and out!
I have long hair, and I shed a lot. I found myself wondering where all that long hair was. When I followed the instructions and unscrewed the little side brush there was a big ball of hair under it. Then I took the little roller bars out and it was all wound up inside on both ends. This is not a fault because it's so much nicer to clean out a few balls of hair instead of having it tangled up in brushes or even worse, floating around your feet. Irobot has made it easy to clean the thing out, and it only takes a couple of minutes. Okay, at this point I realize I sound like a commercial for Irobot, so let me assure you that I WISH I was one of those people who got their products for free, but I paid full price for mine.
The 860 is so powerful that I get nervous when it is around power cords. I found out it's designed to back up when it gets on them, but it still made me nervous. I have bunch of extension cords and all kinds of things hooked up around my bed, so my solution was to block the roomba off with a 4 ft long by 2 inch wide axe handle. Well, it seriously climbed right over that axe handle with such determination that I stood in awe as I also freaked out. This thing is amazing, and maybe a little bit scary, lol.
If you are wavering between the 860 and 880, I would go with the 860 because of the lithium battery. It's stronger and will last a lot longer. It doesn't have a memory like the other roomba batteries (like I said, I've done my research). I ended up having to return my 860 because it started making a clicking noise that I couldn't fix by cleaning it. Also, the lights on the machine and charger weren't working the way they should. I'm telling you this so you will know what to look for, but even with the clicking and lights, it still was a crazy cleaning machine. I loved it! The 880 went on sale and I really thought I needed the remote. It turns out that the remote only works if you point it right at the machine, so I have barely used it. The lighthouses are nice I suppose, but I found that I rarely even needed the virtual wall that came with the 860. More than likely I will return the 880 and go back to the 860 with the lithium ion battery. Although the 880 is running fine this first week, it will only go for an hour whereas the 860 was topping out at more than 2. I hope this helps you make your decision. Whether or not to get one at all is a no brainer. It's the best thing I've ever had.
Bottom line, my floors have never been this clean. Today I'm going to celebrate by mopping!
We eventually went with the 860 for several reasons. It has better suction than the 700 series, it has a better battery (LITHIUM) than the 880, and overall the iRobots had better review than the other brands. So we took the leap.
It has been one week since we received "Dusty" and I wanted to wait to give a completely honest review because like you it is the reviews I rely on to make my final decision.
First of all, I paid every penny of the $499.99- no free vacuum here (in fact if you could tell me how to get them, that would be great)- with every intention of returning it if I wasn't satisfied.
When Dusty got here he came in many boxes, but once he was free it took all of 1 minute to get him charging. He looked great, was light-weight, and when I read over the manual (which I didn't need to get him charging) it seemed simple enough.
The next night, when we were both home for the show, we got him started. We pressed the CLEAN button and off he went. We followed him around- like everyone- as he moved about the rooms. Like everyone else's observation his movements seem random. Here or there, Dusty cleaned everywhere. But I had no clue if he was getting all the spots. To be fair our duplex is all of 800 sq. feet, but we were still curious to follow his path. It didn't take long (we don't vacuum much) until he we full. A red light and beep alerted us to it and we simply emptied the canister and then let him go again., He went for over 2 hours before he put himself (yes, put himself) back onto to the dock to charge. During this time we watched TV and had conversation without being interrupted by the noise.
We emptied his canister and then programed him to clean everyday. The instructions were clear and easy to follow.
We were not home the next day to see the show, but when we came home his canister was full and he was back on charge. So far so good.
Dusty inevitably has sucked up things he hasn't due to our (my) own lack of tidiness. Yarn, socks, cards... these are things Dusty does not like. However, each time Dusty has given off an alert and then shut himself off until the problem was addressed. It was simple to clear when necessary, then I set him off to clean again. So far he has not gotten lost as I had feared, nor has he sucked up cords that I was worried about. In fact, I LOVE how easily he is able to make it under the bed (with obstacles) and couch without any issues. That in itself is amazing. That all alone would convince me to tell you to just spend the money, but there is one more thing.
Dusty cleans! I mean really really cleans. I am amazing (and a little ashamed) at how much dirt Dusty is still (one week later) is sucking up. In a super small house he is able to navigate hard wood floors, vinyl, and carpet to suck up an incredible amount of dog hair and dirt! We have a Lab and she sheds. We have sucked up more than one dog's worth of dog hair in just a week- and that is without her being in the house this week (due to her enjoying the mud more than usual).
The short answer is YES, buy it. It saves you time, it cleans (more than most other vacuums) and it can even do it without you!
Top reviews from other countries
Roomba, which my 3yo named "Max," can be programmed super easily, but I choose to only run it when I push the button manually, so it won't accidentally interrupt nap time or ruin floor play time. It's not overly noisy, and doesn't scare the kids or pets.
It sometimes tries to eat a cord, or string, or other random bits of life that end up on the floor, but it either drops it on it's own or tells me somethings up and I just flip it over to remove the debris. It's super easy to empty and change the filter, and I'm constantly astounded by how much crud, especially pet fur, that it finds. I had what I thought was a good Eureka vacuum but now find that the Roomba cleans up after it. You definitely don't sacrifice quality for convenience with this model.
It navigates my house easily and thouroughly, rarely getting stuck. The battery life is more than enough to clean one floor of my house and it charges quickly to be used again.
Overall, it saves me incredible amounts of time that I was formerly vacuuming on my own, and it does a far better job than I do. Still loving it after 2 months. Best splurge ever!
First, the vacuum rollers are fairly fragile. It once ate a small squarish plastic ocelot figurine, which pretty damaged both rollers to near-replacement point. This was about 3 days after we got it. Mind you the rest of the machine is fine, so this is a small concern.
Second, a few reviewers mention that it doesn't do a great job of navigating once it's out of sight of home base. I found this to be relatively true at first--in that it always made its way home (provided it didn't get stuck--more below) eventually; but it could take a while as it bumbled around trying to work out a line of sight. However, over time it has gotten better than this.
Third, a few reviewers indicated that it doesn't seem to 'map out' the house. After a few weeks of living with it, I feel fairly certain that it does actually do some mapping of some sort. When last I watched it come on (usually I'm out), it made a beeline directly for the bedroom door, which it drew a graceful, tight arc perfectly through. This is not a straight-line trip from home base, and it didn't bump into anything in the process, so I'm inclined to think it's figured something out there. Also, as mentioned above, its ability to find its way home has improved over time, so I suspect it's got a pretty decent memory.
Fourth--and this is the most annoying part, which is honestly not that bad--it seems to be ideally sized to use my dining room chair legs as a Roomba trap. It can juuust barely slip its way in through the front, at which point it will never, ever, make it back out again. This has happened three or four times now. Once I came home to see the poor thing, dead flat battery, huddled under the chair in silence. It honestly made me kind of sad. I was able to resolve some conflicts for it by clearing out other clutter in the house, but I just don't know what I'm going to do about the chairs. I have one too many to set up on the table, and I can hardly be expected to expend that much effort on a daily basis anyway!
Finally, as stated by many other people: this thing is damn cute! I can't get past thinking of this thing as a pet. The cat is more cuddly, but honestly this guy (my daughter decided it's a boy Roomba) tickles as he goes over your foot. The 'bump to navigate' control scheme they cooked up really makes him seem like he wants to get to know you better. And, like any good cat, he's often to be found right there underfoot, insisting gently that you step on him, or fall over trying not to. (In all seriousness, this isn't really a problem).
Conclusion: Great! Not perfect, but I'm not even sure I'd be happier if it were perfect.
We have two dogs that shed constantly. The tangle free extractors work amazing. Our floor is cleaner than it’s ever been. Works great on the hard laminate floor and the low pile carpet. It even cleans our bath mat amazingly without dragging it anywhere. The one thing is that is doesn’t get the corners. But.... it’s circular so. I am willing to manually clean the corners if this thing does the rest !
Living in an apartment with all hardwood floors, two pets, a dusty/silty area and dry skin? Sounds like a nightmare. I couldn't even walk around without socks on because of the crap that would stick to my feet.
Two easy solutions: Sweep every day for 30 minutes and miss some of it or buy a roomba and help it once in awhile for a total of 5 minutes.
Yeah, it gets stuck once in awhile or gets lost. It's not perfect but it's still beats the hell out of swiffering every day for the facts that it's both more thorough and less time consuming. Having a clean floor with little to no effort is such a luxury that I'm not sure how I lived without it.
If I knew better I would have chosen a model with multi-room navigation because the getting lost and random bumbling is a bit annoying, but for the budget model it's perfect. I love this thing.
