Robot Vacuum

Thinking of buying a Romba I-robot electric Vacuum. They have been out for awhile now are they any good?
ours works very well.
we have had to take it in once, as it kept circling on the spot - one of the bump sensors was being constantly nudged by something stuck in it or something like that. they fixed him up and sent him back.
ours is scheduled to start vacuuming on friday afternoons - so we come home to clean floors for the weekend. it's on less chore.
although, it's not really a vacuum - it's just a brush system.
they do need a bit of attention. you are supposed to clean them after every vacuum and use compressed air to keep the sensors cleaned, but even still, it's not too much hassle.
i have seen other 'robot' vacuum cleaners. so if you weren't prepared to spend the money on a Roomba, maybe you could go with another company?

Neato xv-11 robot vacuum cleaner
Can any of the iRobot Roomba work on normal carpet?
I've seen the robot vacuum cleaners before (iRobot Roomba) and they seem really cool. But in reading about them, it seems like the mostly work on bare floor or super short carpet. Are there any models that work with normal medium length carpet?
I have a Roomba Discovery and it cleans my medium pile carpet wonderfully! None of the Roomba vacuums are recommended for shag carpet or fringe rugs. You also must move wires and cords, just like with a regular vacuum.To get the best cleaning possible from your Roomba you should clean the brushes regularly. Most of the Roomba models now come with a brush cleaner, but if your doesn't, you can order one for less than $5.00. If you have pets I would recommend the Roomba Discovery for Pets. You are correct...they are really cool! My Roomba and Scooba(the robot that mops) are the BEST house cleaning products that I have ever owned..
