I received a Roomba 870 as a gift for Xmas, basically the same as this except no Wi-Fi control. Very disappointed with it. It just randomly vacuums around the room, not strong enough to pickup grains of rice or Granola crumbs that it runs over. It picks up dog fur quite well, but its tiny trash compartment fills up in less than one cleaning cycle. It looks like a half-arsed attempt at vacuuming before it returns to its docking station for charging about 60 mins later. If I paid a maid to do that vacuuming, I would have fired her/him after a week. Now after only 2.5 months of letting Roomba do its thing, for 5 days in a row, the battery dies before Roomba even returns itself to the docking station. We're only talking only 500 sqft of floor-space. I'll find it hidden somewhere, under a chair or table, and I have to carry it to the docking station to charge itself. It lets me program a cleaning schedule, but when the battery goes completely dead, I lose the programmed schedule and it just sits in the docking station doing nothing. So it's too late to return this thing. I only had 30 days to return it and my friend bought it back in November.
