iRobot Roomba 960 $399.99 + Free shipping Amazon

Planned on grabbing this on Black Friday from Best Buy. Might as well grab it now
from Amazon and get 5% back on my card. Cheers!

It agonized me which Roomba to get. There are literally opinions and bought-and-paid-for shills talking about every which vac and deals on so many. Couple that with the myriad of Roombas to choose from and it's easy to wait. But I bought this model some time ago and it's absolutely fantastic.

No regrats whatsoever.

You will want to pick up the virtual walls, however if you need to block off areas, and I think mine came bundled with one.

Oh and I actually had a defective unit at the start, now that I recall. I had to actually mail the unit back, so we got off to a really bad start. The roomba would basically leave its base and go 5 feet before "ERROR!". That sucked, but Roomba co made it relatively painless to exchange it via mail. Despite the bad start, the quick exchange and great cleaning this model roomba has done I can't recommend it enough.

You'll make up in time saved (less vacuuming) what it costs you even on an Uber Eats salary.

Also at Lowe's. Might be able to get a lows coupon and use it also.

Was going to order it from Lowe's but no military discount on that model Probably will wait for a deal from Costco

Well Aware of the Roomba brand, How do these do with corners though? with a round design i cant imagine it would fair too well.

Shows $449.99 for me. Am I missing something?

How does this compare to the Roborock S5?

How does this one compare with the e5?

Another option is https://www.rakuten.com/shop/asav.../?sku=R960 It comes out to $409+tax but you get $65.44 is Rakuten points or whatever they are called.

I'm glad you posted that. Was thinking of doing the same but no military discount means I'll keep looking. I could justify $360+tax but above that and $ gets tight. The fact that this needs separate virtual walls instead of no go lines in the app is disappointing as well. This model scored well on Consumer Reports.

At $400+, I'll wait for an i series if I go with Roomba for the dirt disposal bin charging base.

If you are looking at the Roborock s5, check out the Deebot ozmo. I only have experience with the 907 but the navigation on the thing is spectacular and the app is great too. The Ozmo is about $100 less.
