Anyone else have a Roomba?

<< < (5/5)

I had a Roomba and absolutely loved it, but its battery is dead.  It only lasts for about one minute.  Someday I will replace the battery.  I can't freaking believe that they cost $70 now.  What's that all about.  Now I wish I had bought one when I first needed it and they were only $40 or $50 (which struck me as expensive).

I buy my Roombas from Woot.com.  They're refurbs and older models, but $100 is about all I'm willing to spend on them.  When my first battery died I just bought another Roomba since for $100 it's nice to have another set of brushes, rollers, bearings, motors, etc.

I like my Scooba even more.  Other than tight corners, that thing does a great job.

I got mine off of Woot, but it was brand new.

The cost of lead.  All heavy batteries are going up like crazy.  I replaced the battery in my Civic the other day - over $100 for a battery for a 4cyl 1.6L.
