Since introducing the Roomba vacuum in 2002, iRobot has continued to delight customers with every product generation, saving customers valuable time previously spent on household chores.

 

The team at iRobot has developed innovative cleaning products that customers love.

 

Amazon and iRobot announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement under which Amazon will acquire iRobot...

hmm,

 

Still have to say how great they are. When we bought our first I suspected it would be a gimmick and end up sending it back. But it does a really great job. Now we have one for upstairs and one downstairs. No need whatsoever to vacuum manually, apart from the stairs!

I feel the need to leave this here:

But mostly I'm jealous because we can't have one as our house is old and random and has steps linking rooms.

Obviously, the dog also felt the need to leave something...

Great, means if I ever get a Roomba, Amazon will start telling me what furniture will fit in my rooms, suggesting I buy more shelves or shoe racks or chew the rugs up and then suggest I buy new ones!
