I just found one yesterday in a dumpster, in its original SEALED box, having never been opened. I reported it to my condo manager to find out if anybody might have had it stolen. If not, I’ll make an unboxing video of it in the near future.
So far so good with this vacuum. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
Just starting up this vacuum. My son had one for about a month and his house is clean from dog hairs. He liked it so I got one. Thanks for validating this purchase
Thank you for this video and review. My Mom just purchased one for me for Christmas so I came here to see how it works. You explained everything perfectly. Thanks.
Yay! I'm so excited now! This Roomba is on sale at Canadian Tire right now and thanks to you I will be purchasing it. Great review, thanks for sharing. 👍
Thank you for your review and great information. It's Mother's day and I got my Roomba for myself. You video has been very helpful setting it up and understanding the workings, cleaning, maintenance, etc... My Roomba is my mother's little helper. Happy Cleaning and Happy Mother's Day!
Hi Kimberly. Just bought the 690 model on Amazon Prime Day and it was delivered this afternoon. Based on your review, I’m sure I’ll have it operational in short order. Hope yours is still performing up to your expectations.
We just got one from a friend who only used it two or three times - with no manual. Your video was extremely helpful! One question - about how long does it take the Roomba battery to fully recharge after use?
All 700’s and 800’s use icons on screen too cuz Clean buttons does not operate battery icon. Error icon. And bin icon. And WiFi icon. Except for some old Roomba’s but old Roomba’s have no WiFi connection.
I still have the same model as shown in the video. Still use it all the time! I think you are supposed to replace the filter every 2 months but I have not kept up with that frequency I’m afraid.
I take the filter out and use a tooth brush to clean it. I also clean inside the housing with the tooth brush, and finally use a hand vacuum to finish. I do replace it after 2 1/2 years.
Your video was very very helpful! I’m having trouble with the app connecting/recognizing the roomba....the app downloaded ok but won’t recognize the roomba network....any advice?
I just got mine and I love it too but is not going into the whole house and is not clearing the steps well it’s fallen twice on a ledge it can’t get back out of and my house is very small
HomeWithKimberly Hi! On its defense, the ledges are small not as deep as the ones in a step or stairs... also the barrier thingy sometimes doesnt stop it
just bought a 690... ended up here. you said ask questions... so... how is the battery pack doing? is it still holding charges well here 2 years out? is it still going period?
It’s still running Joey. Still does a pretty decent job of picking up all the junk, as long as I keep the brushes cleaned out regularly. I have changed the filter once as well.
Mine does not return when the battery runs low. It does tell me it needs to be recharged. It also has a battery indicator that I can view on my cell phone (wi-fi). After 1 hour and 28 minutes, my history tells me the battery is low so even after 4 years, I'm getting almost 90 minutes. I've been running only once a week though.
Thanks for head’s up! Someone hacked into my Google account that was associated with this RUclips account a few months ago and I have been trying to recover it for sometime. I will take care of this.

My Roomba came in this evening so I wanted to see what "youtubrers" have to say about it. Your reviews have been best thus far.. you are a "Pro"..
Just received our 690. Your video was very helpful in understanding some things that were unclear after reading the instructions. Thank you!

This review was everything I hoped for. It was thorough, riveting, and funny at times. 9/10.
Thank you so much! I just got mine, and you taught me new things. This is the best video I've seen, so far!

This video was so helpful - thank you! Honestly the best video on this - clear, relatable, etc. Thanks for making my set up that much easier.
Just got my roomba! Excellent video! Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for the video, appreciate you showing how it works. Just got one today!
Good video 👍🏼
Came for the Roomba review, subscribed because of the roast chicken recipie. Can't wait to see other videos!
I have one, and let me tell you this little thing is worth it Weight in gold.
Excellent
Cliff sensors look very great

Good video I just bought two and looking forward to use them.
Watching your video helped me get started with mine. Thanks!
Thank you for the review! Helped me start up my roomba!
My dad just bought a roomba for my mom just 10 minutes ago so this might help!
You are Terrific. Thank you for perfect instructions for my new iRobot.
Looks like an awesome product for a larger home.
I got one to clean my room .-. I still have to find a good spot for the charging station
This helped more than looking at diagrams in the instruction book. Wondering how often Kimberly has to change/clean the box?
We just got one from a friend who only used it two or three times - with no manual. Your video was extremely helpful! One question - about how long does it take the Roomba battery to fully recharge after use?
All 700’s and 800’s use icons on screen too cuz Clean buttons does not operate battery icon. Error icon. And bin icon. And WiFi icon. Except for some old Roomba’s but old Roomba’s have no WiFi connection.
Thanks for the informative video. Can you tell me how to deprogram the roomba if you don't have it on your phone? Thanks.
Does it clean more than a room? For example, living room and after it goes to the kitchen?
Getting error 9 what do I need to do
Hey how's your Roomba still doing? Is it working out for you?
I just bought one but haven't quite got the Wifi figured out on it.... Have you seen the Braava yet?? :)
Hi thanks for sharing your experience.. Doest it do wet cleaning?? Please let me know..
Roovina Volety it cant vacuum anything wet nor can it mop :) hope that helps
You tried new model since 2 years ago? I've just got 676 and it's about the same as You are showing. love it. do You have to change the filter a lot ?
I still have the same model as shown in the video. Still use it all the time! I think you are supposed to replace the filter every 2 months but I have not kept up with that frequency I’m afraid.
I take the filter out and use a tooth brush to clean it. I also clean inside the housing with the tooth brush, and finally use a hand vacuum to finish. I do replace it after 2 1/2 years.
How do you connect it to wifi though like wtf
Love my roomba..960. It is lost... I left it cleaning & can't find it. Is there a way to locate it?
if it’s dead, no you can’t find it.
Your video was very very helpful! I’m having trouble with the app connecting/recognizing the roomba....the app downloaded ok but won’t recognize the roomba network....any advice?
Mary Lynn Swartz make sure you are on a wifi network before
Sooo two years later, hows it working? I just ordered one.
Works great. I have had no issues with it. I hope you are enjoying yours!
HomeWithKimberly I am thank you for your review!! I’m glad I went with this one, there are so many out there. This one had the best reviews.
Great video! Just bought one for my mother for Mother’s Day thanks!
How effective is it on carpets compared to a traditional powerful vacuum cleaner.
Good video and information!
Hello. this video is a little bit older then a year, how is the robot doing? is it still working properly?
@@homewithkimberly6648 thanks fore the quick reply. yes, a new video would be cool :-)
I wish i had a roomba
I just got mine and I love it too but is not going into the whole house and is not clearing the steps well it’s fallen twice on a ledge it can’t get back out of and my house is very small
HomeWithKimberly Hi! On its defense, the ledges are small not as deep as the ones in a step or stairs... also the barrier thingy sometimes doesnt stop it
just bought a 690... ended up here. you said ask questions... so... how is the battery pack doing? is it still holding charges well here 2 years out? is it still going period?
My Roomba still works well. Charges normally. I do need to replace the filter, but I have no issues that have cropped up since making this video.
Just bought this model hows it working for you
great video, where do you put the little black box sensor
yo heads up your background music is really loud in your intro, consider levelling off your audio peaks while editing
How’s it working at this moment
It’s still running Joey. Still does a pretty decent job of picking up all the junk, as long as I keep the brushes cleaned out regularly. I have changed the filter once as well.
@@homewithkimberly6648 that’s good to know thank you god bless
The background music is a BIG distraction.
^v^ love my Roombas as well.
How long will it clean on a charge? And will it return to cleaning if it needs to recharge?
90 minutes and yes, it will.
no, it won’t resume where it left off, but if it’s low it will return and say it’s finished
Mine does not return when the battery runs low. It does tell me it needs to be recharged. It also has a battery indicator that I can view on my cell phone (wi-fi). After 1 hour and 28 minutes, my history tells me the battery is low so even after 4 years, I'm getting almost 90 minutes. I've been running only once a week though.
Trade my girlfriend in for one of those
why not set it up with your cell phone so much easyer
By the way, SOME ONE STOLE YOUR VIDEO. I would file a copyright issue. Their name on youtube is Greyson Lane i think
Thanks for head’s up! Someone hacked into my Google account that was associated with this RUclips account a few months ago and I have been trying to recover it for sometime. I will take care of this.
HomeWithKimberly no problem!
That brush is very cheap, I just got my Roomba, I don't see that brush lasting very long. I called the company to get another brush.
I bought the same Roomba and it worked for a month. I don't like it.
I can't hear you. You need to speak louder.
Oh, but it is very noisy :(
Waaaay to long
