iRobot Roomba S9+ Robot Vacuum - Has Bad Battery Life - Can it be quicker after it has made a MAP?

- Love this vacuum but I hate how long it takes to clean. Seeing how much time it saves after it makes a map. I want it to clean without going back to recharge?
Personally, I could not care less about how long it takes, how loud it vacuums. I just want it to do a good job, not get stuck on obstacles, empty when needed, return to base without error, and not be glitchy.
With nowadays context where A LOT of people are doing home office this is a huge minus for Roomba
@@xeon2k8 don’t run it while you work or close the door
@@mfgallonjaust7171 if im not working im either cooking or watching tv or on the couch chatting so no. About the door, yeah maybe in US house were you have 10 rooms normally. In apartments with 2 people working from home that doesnt cut it. If it takes triple time for Roomba is because of the idiotic navigation algorithm.
Just something to note, for some people, they have the vacuum run while they are at work, so how long it takes doesn't really matter as long as its done by the end of the work day.
Exactly...I said that in the video.
If you have a bigger floor plan which in US is not that rare then it will be still unfinished by the time you arrived home
This is a good vacuum by design with the straight side, which vacuums the carpet along walls.
It's a sad thing that it has so many flaws, the thing is beauty. I want it to be good
Yeah, I've noticed since the latest update mine has been really slow on vacuuming my downstairs floorplan. It's only around 700 square feet.
I think that the s9 is probably the best vacuum in this form factor. But it's far from the best *robot* vacuum.
Issues such as low battery capacity & poor smart navigation have been plaguing iRobot's products for years.
For reference, the only models I know of to have anything higher than an 1800mAh battery are the i8, 980 & s9.
Even those models don't go higher than 3300mAh. These are vacuums that cost almost $1000 (The s9 costs $1670 if you're in England. Even without the Clean Base)
If you think about it for a sec, you said Roborock takes 1h 10m with 50% of the battery. That’s 50% of 5200 so 2600mah. The S9 has 3300mah and yet can’t even finish it in a run, taking 3 times more than the S5, or 50% longer if we only count the total cleaning time of the S9 of 1h 46m.
It's probably because iRobot still drools over camera navigation. The efficiency of Roombas (Meaning the time taken per square metre of cleaning area) is far worse than almost any LiDAR robot vacuum
Big fan of my S9. When it cleans my kitchen area if I remove the chairs (6) it takes ~25 mins to clean the area. If I leave the chairs it takes ~50mins. That's an additional 4 minutes and 10 seconds per chair or 62.5 seconds per chair leg. Roomba needs to work a lot on handling chairs, tables, lamps, etc.
Having the prices they have and the pioneers on robot vacs this current state is completely unacceptable
I see the Roomba s9 as the "professional series". The fact it can't clean a floor plan on a single charge is quite disappointing.
As a professional series Roomba, I would expect it to clean the whole floor plan of say a hotel or a restaurant. I have a Roomba 555, and that is nearly 11 years old now, so Roombas are by all means reliable. I would even go to say a 500 series Roomba would do well in a commercial setting.
The reliability of Roombas seems to only apply to any model other than the i7 & s9. The iAdapt 3.0 models really aren't great from what I've heard
@@ExclamationMarx That's probably something that can be fixed in a software update.
@@UNIX32 I mean in terms of actual hardware. We all know about the error 31 issue that's been plaguing the s9. The i7 doesn't seem too bad, though
@@ExclamationMarx just suction and clean your vacuum after your run. Error 31 can be avoided. I do agree it has to do with the design.
@@jameslinmd I've heard it has something to do with a connector for the bumper coming loose
I only WISH my Roomba s9+ only went back to the dock once during a cleaning. Mine has to go back TWICE during one cleaning run. Pathetic battery!
I gotta know....would you consider doing a 2nd S9 purchase in intrest of all this faulty motherboard talk and error 31 issues? I've had multiple times thought of buying this beast but every review of it it seems the last few months is shit.
I'm wondering if its just a massive batch of defective units or if it's all bad luck and user error...and people just being whiny
My vacuum takes 7 hours for one partial floor
Review neato D3 on amazon, it's 2 years old however it's less than 300 bucks which is an AMAZING deal for a Lidar bot with a huge dustbin
My i7 can not clean my bedroom before it needs to be charged.
And the i7 has a lower batt than the s9!!!
@@glubdalub3349 The i7 has 1800mAh (The standard for any model other than the i8, 980 & s9) Whereas the s9 has 3300mAh
When will you unbox the iLife A10? I can’t wait to see if the ILife A10 is good, especially after seeing poor performance with the Shinebot.
probably tonight
@@AdamsReviews ok, Stress test?
hi
@@MrBlueCreeper hi
I only care about cleaning. I have a 960 and s4 max and 4 dogs. The 960 gets up so much crap the s 4 max leaves behind on carpet.
It's because iRobot has patented the use of counter-rotating extractors in robot vacuums. Other companies would leap at the chance to use that brush design if they could
And Neto has the Laser patent in the US. Like I said I'll take cleaning over navigation
@@richardsmith1161 Neato don't have a patent on LiDAR at all. Wyze is an American company who've released their own LiDAR-based robot vacuum

@@richardsmith1161 I've read that patent. It doesn't change the fact that Wyze's vacuum exists & hasn't received any legal attention from Neato
