meepmeepmayer Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I noticed a lot of Roombas in pictures of EUCs so maybe there is a connection? People who go for EUCs also go for Roombas (and vice versa)? Maybe these devices scratch the pet urge (some thing that reacts to you) but unlike pets they don't.. you know.. everywhere? Both are circular electric devices with a battery that drive around audibly and beep at you to communicate. You can change where they go by using your feet (technically this is EUC related, so hopefully this is the right forum) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US69 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I dont have a roomba, as i found them ridiculous expensive....but i got a chinese one :-) This: http://www.gearbest.com/robot-vacuum/pp_603425.html?wid=21 after reading that it is as nearly as good as a roomba: https://www.golem.de/news/ilife-v7s-im-test-guenstiger-china-roboter-saugt-fast-so-gut-wie-markengeraete-1608-122386.html As we have 2 cats and a dog and mainly tile's on the floor...thats a perfect solution. It is running automatic all 2 days! My Girl friend was sceptic at first...but after just a week she ordered another Ilife for the second floor :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Eisenman Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Estaba pensando en comprar uno después de ver los anuncios con los jinetes de mascotas en el Roomba. Roomba un EUC para mascotas? No he mirado el precio sin embargo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Westland Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I had one and found it useless, so I cannibalized it for the robotics platform. It's a pretty good mobile platform, but I still haven't learned how to program Roomba SCI (their API) ... I'll get around to it eventually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag_Rip Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I got asked several times when people see my Ninebot E+ why I am carrying a roomba around with me.. I guess the joke stems from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I have an iLife A4 Roombawannabe vacuum from Gearbest which is surprising good for what I paid for it. I think it was around $150-200, and I didn't think it would last. Yet it is still doing it's duty very well. I am still amazed by the amount of dust that it picks up, and the floors just feel that much cleaner afterwards. I also have the V7S which has the floor mopping (more just wet wiping) feature, but it only has one front sweeper arm so I prefer the A4. For about the $200 CDN mark, I highly recommend them.

Wait until one of your cats takes a leak outside of the litter box. Then you'll find out, whether your roomba knock-off really reaches all corners of your flat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
