I have already realized that in my case the robot will not help. 4 rooms and 10 cats, he will not stand
Medtech
Cirre, it’s just that your budget will not stand it, but the robot doesn’t care, you will run it twice a day and it will be clean, or you can limit yourself to two cheaper robots or even used ones and launch them in turn, placing the bases as far as possible, there are many options for maintaining cleanliness but first the answers to the questions.

Cirre, I really have one Persian. But Iklebo Arte has been successfully working for me for a year now. For the price, it is now probably commensurate with the rumba. But he doesn't need lighthouses (I can't imagine how I would keep them locally in our house). (Sorry for the off-topic answer, I didn't notice the title)

Looked interesting machine. I will think and mature

Ready to buy a Roomba 631, tell me, who has one that really helps with cleaning? The husband is against, does not believe. And what is desirable to order additionally for this vacuum cleaner?

I'm sad: yesterday I bought a new carpet, so Rumba does not want to go on it, it seems that the edges are not so high, but hard. Crawls, pokes and turns around. Rides on the carpet itself, the pile is not so long. Probably, you will have to buy restrictors and vacuum the carpet first, and then the rest (by sector).

When my vacuum cleaner passed the test, it crawled around the room, there are floor scales in the corner, I put them on an additional board for a flat surface (a shelf from the cabinet), and so the vacuum cleaner did not want to crawl onto this structure probably 4 centimeters high, and then under the end very well several times vacuumed and the scales, adapted So it seems to me that you will eventually crawl onto the carpet. And they should bring me my Rumba this week. Can not wait.
Selena S
Mila1, perhaps you `re right. I jumped once today, and never again. There is nothing to do, we will learn to take obstacles. Over time, perhaps, the edges of the carpet will walk and trample.

Medtech
Selena SPlease specify if your robot has a side brush, how many beams with bristles are on it? 3 or 6?
Selena S
Medtech, I have a Rumba 521 with three beams on the side brush.
Medtech
Selena S, Should climb, if it's not difficult to take a photo of the carpet and the robot standing next to it right at the floor level.
It is worth changing the brush module in your rumba to a universal brush module for the 6 and 7 series and change the trash can to Aerovac from model 6 and it will be easier to climb in and clean quite easily.
Check the front roller, maybe it is already badly worn out and needs to be replaced?
The carpet is not black?
Selena S
Medtech, tried to take a photo, but it is difficult to catch the right moment. I made a video, but chose the top view (I don't know how to insert a video here). In general, the rumba will be beaten, rotating, against the edge of the carpet. Sometimes it turns out to drop in, but so far most often it does not work.I bought virtual walls, now I'm cleaning in sectors

The carpet is quite normal thickness. Yes, Rumba is less all-terrain than Neato, but not on that kind of carpet. Strange ...
Medtech
Robo-Cop, that's strange to me, I don't notice 1.5 cm at home, Selena SIf it's not difficult, please take a couple of pictures of the drive wheel protector, the whole robot from below and the front roller, by the way, check how it rotates on the axis and around itself.
Selena S
Medtech, that's what I have today. Rumba is three years old in August.

Medtech
Selena SUnfortunately, your photos turned out to be small, the previous ones were larger, but the development of the front roller is visible, you should change it.
In principle, it is worth changing the trash can for an air tank, this will make it much easier for yourself to clean the robot and increase the quality of cleaning, it is quite possible that it will be better for the robot to climb, since it will not be hindered by a comb which is simply not available in the Aerovack.
Selena S
Medtech, Thank you very much for your advice. I already changed the module with brushes a year ago, now I need to change the garbage container and roller.

Finally bought a Roomba 631. Now the question is, where to place the charger? The instructions say so as not to obstruct the Base with interior items and furniture. I have a single room, that's why it's cramped. I put the Base between two high pedestals, the distance between them is 55cm, the diameter of Rumba is 40cm. Please tell me if there is enough space for the robot? Can you put a rumba with a base under the sofa, because it interferes a little?
And yet, after cleaning, the vacuum cleaner does not have time to discharge completely, what should I do to make it discharge? Let him ride?
Song
plod7, I have a base under the desk. And the passage is not wide. Finds without problems.
Mila1
plod7, My base is also obstructed by a sofa, but my smart girl gets up to the base on her own.

On July 23, I bought a rumbic, it vacuumed 1 time, and gave an error 2 times and passed out. What to do?
Song
What did he say? What mistake?
The manual contains a list of errors and recommendations for correcting them.
Medtech
plod7, clarify the model of the robot and the error, if you are lazy, then carry the robot to the store or service center.
Selena S
Medtech, help, please, advice. I have Rumba 521, when cleaning I use restraints (virtual wall). At first everything was ok, but now for some reason the rumba does not respond to one limiter, it moves over and that's it, although it blinks regularly. Khan to the limiter or rumba lost contact with him. Can this be fixed? Thank you.
Medtech
Selena S,
Look at the limiter, it has a range controller, try to increase it, put two limiters next to it and turn them on, look at the limiters through the camera of a smartphone or camera, there is a small hole above the switch, there will be an IR radiation output, compare the working wall and the non-working one in terms of brightness radiation that can be seen through the camera, the beam is thin enough to look for it.
Try to swap the batteries in the working and non-working walls, click the range regulator. It happens that the LED loses its brightness and only needs to be changed, only today I changed the LED in the database, now the robot does not butt the base.

plod7, clarify the model of the robot and the error, if you are lazy, then carry the robot to the store or service center.

Rumba 631, error 6. I called the store, a courier arrived, and the vacuum cleaner started working. Of course he was not taken. When the courier left, he again stood in the same place. Our floor is not even, and he could not enter the carpet and turn off. Although on the first day there were no problems.
Medtech
plod7, Error # 6, the rock sensors are dirty, the robot does not see the signal from the fall sensors, you should stick small pieces of paper / masking tape on all 4 fall sensors, just do not glue the bumper, this can be done if you have no place for the robot to fall, because with glued height sensors, the robot will not see the stairs or the opening, it will go further and fall.
Medtech
plastic tape is not suitable, or you need to make the fiber from a suitable material and glue it with transparent tape.

Medtech, Today I conducted an experiment: 1) I put new batteries in the limiter: for the first 15 minutes everything was OK, and then I began to move again. 2) put a stopper in the doorway: here everything is fine, there were no "escapes". My conclusions: a short beam of a virtual wall. How to increase it? I didn't find the range controller. I have such a model. It looks like it is not regulated.

Selena S, You have a new wall model, there is no regulator in it. Short means weak, look into the hole on the side of the virtual wall, maybe there is just something horrible there? And so, just change the wall or replace the LED that emits an IR signal, usually suitable from any control panel.
Selena S
Medtech, Thank you.

I just bought it, how could the rock sensors get dirty?

Please tell me, how can I clean the vacuum cleaner? He cleaned the apartment in about 1 hour, and got up to the base to recharge. It cannot be touched while it is charging. And when to clean it?

Good day!
gently detach the dust container and shake it out, I got used to it - I don't even twitch from the base.
I clean the brushes only after a full charge.
plod7
Yesterday I cleaned it like that, waited for the green light to turn on, took it off the base, turned it off and cleaned it, and then put it back on the base. Is it okay?

When I clean the brushes, I remove them from the base (when cleaning the container I do not remove it, I carefully unfasten the container, even if it is charging), I clean it and put it back in place, only when it is fully charged. If in the process of charging, do not touch. The vacuum cleaner is 4 years old, the battery has not been changed, it cleans every day.

Thanks a lot for your help. When you buy something new, many questions arise.

Song
How to take care of the battery?
GriNata
The instructions read:
1.Do not interrupt the charging process.
2. Do not disconnect the base from the power supply.
Well, thirdly, I try sometimes so that the battery is discharged almost at 0.
I always follow these rules.
Song
We know that too ...
Medtech
plod7, you'd better make a video with the robot in those moments when it turns off, especially since it stands in the same place.
You can clean it at any time, remove the robot from the base and do what you want with it, then put it on and of course it costs as advised GriNata, once a month, do the complete discharge procedure, start the robot from the base and turn off or remove the base, the robot will work until the battery runs out, wait for the robot to stop and put it on the turned on base.

He probably got stuck between the wardrobe and the carpet, in this place the floor is a little uneven. Today I moved the carpet slightly and everything worked out. I can experiment, but I don't know how to put video and photos here either.
Tell me, do you need to turn off the robot when to clean?
Medtech
plod7, removed the garbage container, turned the robot over, maybe he would swear at the loss of the floor, maybe not, he emptied the garbage container, cleaned the brushes and bearings, cleaned the front wheel by removing it from the pivot joint, pushed the axle out of the wheel, removed the dirt in the axle groove, pushed through the wheel again axle and shook out the remnants of the debris from the wheel, inserted the axle into the wheel, put the wheel in place, glanced at the side brush and spun it just in case, turned the robot over, put the trash can, put the robot on charge, it all takes one and a half minutes.
The robot still does not turn off, it still works even if the button is off.

I got a battery for my Rumba 630 from Ebey. Reached in 20 days. I immediately put it on charge. Today is a test to the bitter end, I worked for 3 hours 45 minutes.
I worked for 2 hours and started to blush. Well, I think they deceived that it works up to 4 hours. Usually after 30 minutes it turns red, then that's it: you need to charge. So I thought it was the same with this battery.
Native ac. was made in China, and this is Taiwan. It looks different and is lighter in weight. But it is very easy and quick to install.
Song
Natasha, that's okay. Let him work, not be lazy.
Anna1957
Medtech, Sergey, there was an opportunity to order a battery for Rumba on Amazon
🔗
What is your opinion about her? It is necessary to decide within 2 days.
Rita
Anna1957Until Sergei answered, can I speak? It seems to me that this capacity is too small. Now you can find 4500 mAh for inexpensive, if you search. I found myself on ebee when I needed to. They last longer!
