Mostly i am happy with my purchase. with the price, I cannot complain but there are issues to consider before purchase. it sometimes stops after 10 min and returns to the base saying it’s done cleaning. and we have to send it again. it sometimes will not go to my kitchen. when run with Alexa always return in 10 min so I schedule with the robot app only. I have a smaller place so this one is enough but bigger place smart models make more sense. as this one does not come with any floor plan or memory to resume cleaning.
if you can live with the issues above which is not major as it cleans daily. this is a fantastic choice. cleaning is nice and it definitely spared me some more time as it cleans every day. so far no issues. will update this if I ran into any issues after more usage
I just gave it 3 stars because it still no 100 % automated for me I need to make sure it ran a complete cycle and did not miss any area and if it misses you have to do it because area cleaning comes in higher-end models only

There are good points and bad points about this vacuum, as well as some things that I’m just torn on. The “undecided” things include: it alerts your cell phone if it gets stuck (well, if you’re not at home when it’s running, there’s not a lot you can do about it, so it’s kind of annoying to get the alerts); and it talks to you, like when it gets stuck and you “unstick” it and set it in motion again. I mean, okay, it’s kind of nice that it talks to you about its status, but I really don’t need to hear its complaints.
PROS
* It’s easy to set up a schedule via the cell phone app. The app installed easily and quickly and after a few false starts having to do with balancing our wifi network with the connection to the vacuum, the app has worked well. The scheduling is very flexible because not only can you set a time for the vacuum to run, but you can also select days. We run it every day, but it’s nice to have the option of running it every other day, which is the default on the app.
* It does a fairly good job picking up dirt and animal hair (and even human hair). The dust bin is full each time it runs, and the floor is cleaner than it has ever been, as well as a few area rugs, so that’s great.
CONS
* It has a little knob on top which projects upwards about 1/2″ or so (maybe a little less). The knob prevents it from getting under most of our furniture. Our previous robot vacuum didn’t have such a knob and got under almost every piece of furniture we have.
* It’s not very good about finding its way around. We have a ranch-style house so it’s long and all one floor, and we have the irobot starting in our bedroom at one end of the house. It stayed in the bedroom the first two days it ran. It just couldn’t seem to find its way out the door. I finally picked it up and put it in the kitchen. After that, it seemed to be able to find its way out of the bedroom about every other day to vacuum the rest of the house. It keeps getting stuck under my sewing table, though–this happens every day–so I’m going to have to block that. I find that a plain piece of wood is the best option for blocking areas like that. Anyway, it would be nice if it would learn about “problem areas” like that and stop getting stuck every day.
* It’s noisy. A lot noisier than our previous one (our previous one was a different brand). So we can’t run it early in the morning or if we’re on the phone because it’s a very annoying sound.
* The dust bin is shockingly small. It’s about half the size of the bin in our previous robot vacuum. It’s fairly easy to clean–it simply has a little “gate” I unlatch and dump out the dirt into a plastic bag. But the bin is very small. Which is why we run it every day because if we let the dirt “pile up” it wouldn’t be able to finish one room before the bin was full because of the dog hair from our two dogs.
* It rarely finds its way back to its home base. I often find that it has quit in the middle of a room (usually at the opposite end of the house from where its home base is located). Not a huge problem because I just pick it up and place it on its home base, but the robot doesn’t seem that “smart” about learning the layout of the house. It still has problems finding its way out of our bedroom, so a lot of days, that’s the only room it cleans.
On the whole, I like the vacuum despite all the cons–the cons are more annoyances than real problems. I like the app and the flexibility in scheduling when we want the vacuum to run. I just wish the bin were a little larger and that it was a little better about finding its way out of our bedroom.

So I bought this figuring I would either love it or return it, was it actually going to work? Well after trying it out a couple times on our ground floor I found it was very good at cleaning our bare floors and a couple area carpets. The big test was actually the kitty litter room down the hall which it did eventually wander into and did a very good job cleaning up the kicked out litter. So I am impressed and will be keeping it. Even without the advanced mapping features of newer roombas this model will cover the area within the expected 90 minute period.
It also does not destroy cords if you are wondering, it ran over an extension cord and a couple other cords and was able to untangle itself.

AMAZING PRODUCT! I have 2 huskies and a rotti. I was swiffering 2-3 times a day to catch all the hair. With my roomba, I run it once in the morning and once in the evening. It literally catches EVERYTHING. The clean up is so quick and easy. It fits under my couch and chairs and gets into every nook and cranny. I HIGHLY recommend this for pet owners 🙂 I had no trouble with wifi, charging or finishing the job. This thing changes your life.

I have so many videos of roomba not behaving. When i come home from work, i find it either spinning a circle or trying to murder its home docking station.
The product worked fine for 3 days before these symtoms started.
I also have an issue of the vacuum starting up even though the schedule is turned off (since this roomba cant be left alone)
I have reached out through emails, faceboom msgs, and chat rooms to try and reach customer service, and have had no results.
Do not soend your money on the company when many others actually stand behind the product they produce.

We had an iRobot Roomba for about 15 years, that finally died on us. We wanted a new Roomba, without all the newly added tech features, that would clean our floors as well as the original. The iRobot Roomba 692 fit the bill quite well. We are pleased with it!

Honestly, this has to be one of the dumbest roombas ever produced. As you can see in the video, this is after instructing it to go home (charging dock). Also the suctioning power on this is very minimal as it leaves a large amount of dust behind.

We have had different brands of robot vacuums. Three that I recall were cheaper than iRobot’s brand and weren’t long lived. Two were Roombas. The most recent one gained is going on five and going strong (with maintenance: battery replaced and scheduled filter and brush replacements). Now, we have a new model of iRobot, this Roomba 692. I like it as well as our other one and am appreciating the Wi-Fi component. Regarding the question of how much help a robot vacuum can be, I vacuum a lot less, but I do still vacuum. The only way that I could be saved from the chore would be if I lived alone without other people or animals. This Roomba 692 is noticeably louder and more powerful than the old one and has no problem moving back and forth, up and down, between rugs and hardwood floors. The iRobot Roomba 692 Robot Vacuum has Wi-Fi connectivity. With the iRobot App, the machine can be told to clean, go to its dock or one can enter a schedule to tell the vacuum when to go to work. iRobot’s app works with Google, making it an easy addition to Google Home. Overall, I find this new model 692 to work the best of any robot vacuum we’ve had. It has the most powerful suctioning, the longest lasting battery, and moves smoothly over multiple floor types. If you’re like me and like help keeping up with the vacuuming, I recommend the iRobot Roomba 692 for being the best robot vacuum I’ve ever tried.

First problem, even though it says random, it still follows the same path and is constantly getting stuck under my bed. Second problem, after only 3 months of use the chargine contacts no longer work and I cannot charge the unit, not making it useless floor art.

Buscaba una aspidarora de este tipo con una buena reputación, esta la encontré con descuento y por que leí la marca irobot suele ofrecer buena calidad, si bien no es la más reciente, es uan gran opción, la utilizo cada dos días para recoger el pelo de mis mascotas y vaya que lo hace muy bien.
Me parece una excelente opción por el precio, además se puede sincronizar con google home y facilitar su manejo remoto o bien desde la app de irobot.

There is a lot to like in terms of the cleaning ability of this vacuum for hardwood floors. We are renovating the entire house at once and there is always dust and we got this to keep the dust at a minimum. However, this robot is dumb dumb dumb. It just wanders around the room, banging into anything in its way as it lazily wanders about. There is a floor lamp with a cord in one corner and the vacuum seems to need to always go there. Then to the same table leg it has hit a dozen times. Then maybe something new under the bed but then back to where it has gone before. This goes on until it runs out of battery, not because the floor is clean.
We returned this and got the Shark one with self cleaning option on sale for the same price. The Shark goes in rows and completes its cleaning in a short time because it is systematic. It also slows down before hitting the baseboards instead of slamming into them like the 692.
My mother got the i7+ on sale which is far more expensive than the 692 but worlds better in terms of systematic cleaning.
Overall, where it does clean, the 692 dos a good job. Just dont expect it to be systematic or thorough.

I don’t think IRobot should sell something like this that does work as advertised. It was my second roomba and took 3 minutes to get off the dock, ran for about 15 minutes and returned to dock. I tried it again and it only did half of my living room and never left the room. It was fully charged as I charged it overnight before using. I guess you have to purchase a better model to get a good job. Very disappointed!

QUICK SUMMARY: Having a working Roomba can definitely help you keep your floors cleaner, especially if you’re used to cleaning your floors only once a week. But that’s key: a _working_ Roomba. And it may not work as well as you’d like in _your_ home.
BACKGROUND: I was an early adopter of Roombas, having owned them back in 2007 until about 2011. I think I owned four of them in all, and I think they all lasted less than a year. I finally gave up on them after I bought an upgraded model that died in less than six months. Great idea, but the Roomba “death circle” (web search it) and faulty sensors and poor battery life all led me to abandon the idea of robot vacuum cleaners. The models I had were all similar in cost to this Model 692.
Move ahead nearly a decade, and I get to review this item as an Amazon Vine member. So this is my review, updated for how Roombas like this Model 692 work in 2020.
WHAT’S IMPROVED OVER A DECADE:
– Better step detection. Ten years ago, Roombas would fall off a carpeted step from my dining room to my sunken living room. I used to setup a multi-chair barrier to stop that from happening. With this Model 692, it detects the step and avoids falling off it. (Update: It’s not flawless in step recognition, sadly. Better than 10 years ago, but today it’s gotten stuck 4 times at the step without toppling over the step, whereas the old Roombas used to fall off the step. I still have to get up and attend to “Error code 6” and relocate this Roomba).
– Better “get unstuck” ability. Ten years ago, Roombas would get stuck pretty easily and cry out for help. Since that time, I’ve installed hurricane-resistant sliders in my home which have a much deeper threshold crevice for the sliding doors to roll on. This Model 692 gets stuck on that threshold but, to its credit, this Roomba can sometimes jostle itself free. But not always.
– Better wall detection. Ten years ago, Roombas would crash around the room while it did its job. This Model 692 will sense a wall (or large piece of furniture) and slow down a bit to gently tap the baseboard (or furniture). Note that you need to have some light in the room for this to work properly.
WHAT I LIKE:
– iRobot has a smartphone app so you can start-up your Roomba, check on its battery level, get notifications (if it has a problem, or if it just completes a task), create a schedule, and a bit more.
– It’s very easy to empty the bin, and it’s easy to remove the filter, go outside, and tap it to dislodge the fine dust that’s accumulated on the filter.
– It’s intuitive to setup and start using.
– We have a medium-sized, coarse-haired dog that sheds profusely. This Roomba did a very good job picking up dog hair.
– The vacuum suction is good enough to clean floors without it being so strong that it sucks up small, carpeted floor mats that are on our tile floor (which would lead to an error).
WHAT COULD BE BETTER:
– This Model 692 doesn’t intelligently “see” a room like higher-priced robot vacuums do. So it doesn’t intelligently cover an oddly-shaped area. Working single rooms is easy and done well. My oddly-shaped area is the tiled area covering my entryway, kitchen with an island and a eat-in dining area. In this area, the Roomba doesn’t intelligently work to clean some parts of this space, and spends too much time cleaning and re-cleaning other parts. I wish there was more whole-room sensing intelligence even in a Roomba at this price-point.
– It’s still a noisy vacuum. On carpet, it’s 55 decibels which isn’t too bad (65 decibels when it’s right next to you), but on tile floor, it’s 65 decibels anywhere in the room. A quiet room is 45 decibels, so it’s doubly loud when the Roomba is working on a carpeted area, and 4x louder when it’s working on tile. If you have big grout lines (1/4″), there’s a little extra clatter as the Roomba bumps over each grout line. In sum, I wish the Roomba ran more quietly.
– The iRobot smartphone app didn’t always correctly report the status of the Roomba. And the Roomba is charging literally five feet from my router, so it’s not a WiFi issue. And I couldn’t register my Roomba’s serial number (for warranty service) on the smartphone app. You have to do that on their website (and finding where to do that on the website isn’t as easy as it should be).
– It’s disobedient. When I used the phone app to command my Model 692 to return to its home base, because my son had a web meeting in 3 minutes, it failed to immediately and quickly do as I asked. Instead, it slowly meandered over to home base, turning a half-circle twice to move AWAY from home base while en route TO home base. It took the full 3 minutes to return home!
OTHER NOTES:
– There’s no virtual walls included with this Roomba. I would up springing for 2 virtual (infrared) walls so I can better partition the common areas in which I’ll use this Roomba.
– If you buy this Model 692, you might as well buy the replacement parts (filters, side brush, bristle bar) because you’re eventually going to need them.
CONCLUSION: I’ve always liked the concept of a robot vacuum. The biggest question I have is whether iRobot has improved their products so they last a few years before they need to be replaced. If a Roomba needs warranty service or, worse, stops working just outside the warranty period, it’s too expensive to warrant having in my home.
