    i guess they didnt sell all of these last time.
    it works pretty well on the kitchen floor.
    picked up all the dust and hair around the edges.

    If you thumbplum would stop buying these they'd stop making them. Seriously, how lazy can you be, or does this fill some other void in your life?

    We have 8. Most older 415s that we bought for $25 off eBay from people that didn't know how to use them and thought there were broke. Also got some cheap 530 and 535s that way.

    You can turn them all on and have a 5,000 sq feet home cleaned in 30 minutes, while you are doing the dishes.

    For the OP, these do well picking up on smooth kitchen floor. There are different brushes for different surfaces, so you might need to change from stock. Obviously, it won't pick up anything dried onto the floor. Then you get out the mop.

    I will think in buying one if they had a “Slim Roomba” so it could fit under my coffee table, side tables and sofa I measure them and there is a 4” clearance and this are 5” high.

    No sale for me since it doesn't have a scheduler. Those cost a lot more, probably because they're a lot more useful.

    5 inches high how's it suppose to get under the kick board of average kitchen cabinet. Those twirling whiskers don't look long enough to get all the crap that finds its' way under there.
