Use it for the whole house. We have a small dog but sheds like a dog the size of a Wolf Hound, and it does a great job. Don't know how I got along without it as I have a very bad back and am 71 years old.

Best birthday present ever. I run through a room with a duster or even a broom and knock all dust and dirt to the floor, bust out the Roomba and leave. It bangs around and is pretty noisy but WHO CARES? We stopped running it overnight because of this but I can always jump in the shower or do something else while it runs. I've learned to limit its cleaning area using the towers and it does a better job as long as it doesn't have too huge an area to clean. We have an open floor plan so it took me awhile to perfect how to maximize the Roomba's possibilities but I'm there! I LOVE IT!!!

REVIEW #2: Roomba 770 HAS BEEN ON THE JOB FOR 2 WEEKS, MY FLOORS ARE SPOTLESS. GUESS WHAT ELSE HAPPENED? YOU DO NOT DUST AS OFTEN.

ROOMBA IS AN AID TO CLEANING, IT CAN NOT REPLACE PEOPLE. I FOUND PLENTY OF DUST BUNNIES HIDDEN BEHIND CABINETS AND BEHIND VARIOUS PLACES IT SIMPLY CAN NOT REACH. NO, I DID NOT PULL THE VSCUUM OUT. FROM MY WHEELCHAIR I USED A LONG REACH SWIFFER AND THAT WAS THAT.

ROOMBA DID GET STUCK A COUPLE OT TIMES, UNDER THE TABLE AND UNDER MY RECLINER. SO WE RAISED THE TABLE A LITTLE AND I DO NOT RECLINE WHEN ROOMBA IS ON THE PROWL.

ROOMBA 770 HAS WORKED SO WELL THAT I PURCHASED ONE FOR MY DAUGHTER, IT WAS DELIVERED ON THE 16TH. SO FAR SHE HAS NOT EXPERIANCED A SINGLE PROBLEM.

MY QUESTION NOW IS, HOW LONG WILL ROOMBA OPERATE WITHOUT FAILURE? WILL I GET MY MONEYS WORTH OUT OF IT? "O", I'M SORRY, THAT WAS 2 QUESTIONS.

THANKS AGAIN IROBOT ROOMBA

I've had a 780 for several years and have been very pleased with it. I bought the 770 for my vacation house. As far as I can tell, the only difference, for $100 less, was buttons instead of touchpads, and that means nothing to me.

This 770 is much quieter than my old 780, but performs equally well.

It got stuck under my couch, but I plan to just put risers under the couch legs, since cleaning under the couch is very important to me. The light from a window shines under this couch and shows all the dust when you walk in the door!

It does equally well on all floor surfaces and is very self-sufficient. It will do hardwood with area rugs and will go easily from hardwood to tile. It goes over the wood thresholds easily.

Overall, I am very pleased with its performance and very pleased that it is quieter than my old one.

Age 65 and disabled. This is my first robot of any kind. Making a choice of manufacturer and model was very difficult. I researched robot vacuums for 10 days deciding on IRobot Rumba. I made the final model selection at the store, when my purchase was done, the 770 came with me.

U-tube was a great help on all manufacturer models. I bought Rumba because I think it will work the best in my home. I do not have plenty of open spaces like some of the video's shown. I have lots of stuff in every room, you know chairs, clothes baskets, furniture and things.

This is day 3 with the rumba and everything is great. Very easy open, setup, and use. The included CD is very good and the op manual is on line.

Did not pre-vacuum, just started it up and let her go. The random tracking works very good in my home environment, the virtual walls are great and it is very quiet; yes I was watching television with it running all around me.

I have 2 inside dogs that shed and Rumba found plenty of fur and grime filling the dirt bin. Rumba did great, no problems at all. I now have 5 rooms cleaned and 2 more to go. I performed a through machine clean up between each room and this was no problem at all. Each room took about 25 minutes to vacuum, no problem for Rumba. I let it run this morning until it needed to recharge, Rumba vacuumed continually for 1 hour, found the dock and recharged.

So far I can say Roomba 770 is great for me. I called my daughter this morning and told her how hard I worked vacuuming, "LOL". I sat in my recliner and Rumba did what is was supposed to do. It docked itself and recharged for 2 hours and was ready to go. I used the remote to call
rumba over to me and I cleaned her up empting into a trash bin that sits next to me. I pressed the dock button, she went back to the dock and is ready to go again.

Thanks IRobot Rumba

Today was Rosie's first run, she took about an hour to do the whole first story of my house (aprox 800sq) and she did great! I own a Golden retriever and was sick of always having the vacuum out laying around due to such frequent vacuuming so I decided to give the iRobot a shot. Even though we vacuumed yesterday morning Rosie still managed to fill her bin full and had no trouble with the long dog hair. She did not get stuck anywhere and maneuvered herself in and out of every room and back to her dock when she was done.

I have patiently waited for years for this product to evolve before purchasing and after spending many hours reading other consumers reports, I decided it was finally time. I chose the Roomba 770 after reading others comments about all brands and models. I seen many still functioning 3-4 year old roombas on auction sites, and if I get 3-4 years life out of this machine I will be a very happy camper.
My house has a sunken living room and I was not sure if this product would work in the raised areas. I am very pleased to announce that it skirts right along the edge of my 6 inch raised kitchen hardwood and does not fall off =)
I took it right out of the box and took the paper out of the debris bin, turned it on and sent her off on her merry way.. I have two rottweilers who shed everywhere and bring in more dirt than you can imagine, but within minutes my kitchen floor felt clean to my bare feet =) Pretty sure this little lady is gonna keep my house cleaner than I ever could!
I seen many mentions of noisiness but I do not find it to be bothersome in the least. It isn't much louder than my dishwasher and my dishwasher was chosen due to it being one of the most silent ones on the market.

I had been coveting a Roomba for several years as I had heard nothing but praises. When we got hardwood floors throughout I convinced my husband NOW was the time to take the Roomba plunge. at first I was very disappointed! It was missing alot of dog hair around the edges of area rugs and in certain areas. By trial and error I have discovered the answers for us at least. 1) Schedule it to run EVERYday if you have a pet(s). 2) Don't overwhelm it by defining too large an area.We blocked the sunroom and left the kitchen, dining area,living room and breakfast area.By the way I am happy to clean the bin daily to get the results! (Very little white dog hair on my hardwood floors)

1 dog and 1 cat; for the 1st month I schedule Rosie to start at 10am everyday for a good cleaning, next month I will have her clean every other day for normal maintenance. She takes care of the entire house, about once a week she gets stuck under low desk. with ease I empty the container everyday (10 seconds) and the brushes every 4-5 days (3-5 minutes). We are happy with Rosie!
