This one is better than the one I have (I have the first one ever). Here are the specs:
- Vacuum-cleaning robot with on-board scheduling for all floor surfaces
- 2 high-speed, counter-rotating brushes; anti-tangle technology; side brushes
- Gentle-touch bumper; dirt sensor; built-in cliff sensors; self-charging Home Base
- Includes bumper extension, cleaning tool, power adapter, rechargeable battery, 3 extra filters, 2 Virtual Walls, and batteries
- Measures approximately 13 by 13 by 4 inches; 1-year limited warranty
This one features on-board scheduling so you can set it… and forget it. Hopefully you won’t forget it entirely, though, as I’ve done with my own Roomba.
