Expensive, but uncompetitive if you want it to be as lazy and low maintenance as possible.

Had previously the Roomba 980 and actually it is stupid to buy a new one. But I was always annoyed by the emptying of the container, because it was quite a dusty thing. Have him now tested a few days and allow me a first feedback.

He is much quieter at work than the predecessor. Therefore, first gave the impression that he would suck weaker, but so far I could not determine a worse result.

He seems to drive less often, smoother and quieter against walls / obstacles.

The map was completed after 3 cleaning cycles. Now I could title and classify all rooms. The operation was not quite intuitive for me. Therefore I had to start again several times. But you only have to do that once. After that you can choose exactly which rooms you want to clean. Works very well.

Otherwise, the light ring on the Roomba should be mentioned. The circling animation of the LED ring is very cool.

It is good that neither the Roomba nor the docking station lights up when the device is in standby. With the predecessor, I had to tape over a light on the docking station because it annoyed me in the bedroom.

Doesn't seem to be any faster than the predecessor. Need both for my apartment about 45-50min.

And of course the clean base, the reason I bought it:
Can't say yet how long it takes to fill the bag. But the vacuuming is working wonderfully so far. It is about as loud as a normal vacuum cleaner, but takes less than 10 seconds. But I'll never hear that again anyway, because I always let him do it when I'm away.

I almost took off one star because the price just got ridiculously high. But I let it be, because everyone must decide for themselves whether it is worth it to him.

So far my impression is: would buy again. more
