Hi all, I have a vacuuming robot, and I love it. It keeps up with the fur from my dog and cat. It does not; however, take the place of a regular type vacuum. It still needs to be used periodically.
I’m guessing the app makes you able to set up the schedule and so forth. That would be nice but isn’t worth the added price for me. HTH. Take care, Lois From: Gordan Radić Sent: Monday, May 30, 2016 2:55 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Roomba 980 with an app! Hi! Frankly, I don't think robotic vacuum cleaners are better than the usual ones. First thing you need consider when purchasing the vacuum cleaner is it's strength in wats. Stronger it is the cleaning process is better because it better sucks the dirt. Robotic cleaners work on battery and you can't get the same strength with it as the machines plugged into wall outlet. So, true, it will probably clean the floor better than a blind person hitting all the spots and corners but it won't do it like a nice old fashioned cleaner. And this is not my philosophy, this I've been told by Vorewerk representative while we talked about their new robotic model.

I could see the utility in having a robotic vacuum because there's always those little spots one might miss around something, and I'd imagine it can do a better job than many of us. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Logan" mailto:[email protected] To: mailto:[email protected] Sent: Saturday, May 28, 2016 2:27 PM Subject: Re: Roomba 980 with an app! Ok, my unit arrived a couple of hours ago. Setting it up was quite easy. There are a couple of really good unboxing videos on You Tube that might help. The app has a few places where things aren't labelled the best, but you should be able to figure it out. The basic things are all accessible... Fired Mr. Roboto up...you can name the unit .. And he took off. Did a pretty decent job ... My suggestion is to make sure you buy it from a place that will allow you to return. With spending almost $1K, you want to make sure it does all that you expect. Sent from my iPhone On May 27, 2016, at 6:15 AM, 'Sandratomkins' via VIPhone mailto:[email protected] wrote: Hallo There! OK, so I am in the market for a new robot vacuum cleaner. The latest, from iRobot's Roomba range, is the 980 and it comes with an app! I want to know how accessible it is. I downloaded the app, and it looks OK, but, because I haven't, as yet, got the machine, needing to know if it will work for me with the app, I can't tell if it is usable with VO. So, my question is: does anyone have experience of the app and running the 980 Roomba. Now, before you all shout at me for profligacy, I know it costs an arm and a leg! I can only say that I have been seduced by the hype! I have long term experience of the Roombas and love them! This new one, not only has an app which should help with error analysis, but will allow me to start the thing off from anywhere and, it says, it will do the whole of one level of my house, going back to the charger for a refuel session and then continue where it left off. Anyway, I am almost convinced, but, with such a large outlay, just need to know about the accessibility. Can you help?
