Stoopid

[smbru406]

i think it the sencer it not mooveing?

[sabrinastar2005]

It's not stupid it might just need to be fixed

[simtitan1]

that roomba is stupid

[rhcasca]

jaja

[Katrinarockslol]

So u decided 2 make a video about it?

[78kokka]

Oh well... I guess that spot is really clean.

[1evanescencerocks]

try replacing the bumper

[porkramen21]

Video title is epic

[zipitys]

roomba is for lazy people :) + dunno does those machines even work great

[WhizKid1010]

HAHAHA!!!

[reinux]

i think it's the ledge sensor. there's another video on youtube that explains that you need to put aluminum foil over the sensors so that it doesn't interpret black flooring as ledge.

[djbirdyisdabomb]

He's just trying to map out the room.

[undocumentedspot]

Wow. you must give that robot its own talk show. keeps spinning in one place.

[sparks4242]

Pahahahaha

[crazyfvck]

lol

[romanuh]

That happened with my robot, and that was for the battery. We changed the battery and it's working good again.

[MrFreeAxe]

Кафель рефленый, у него детекторы, по этому ему кажеться что он на окрайне и дальше плитки не едет. Так что это умный румба.

[CucumberMagic]

@MrFreeAxe гэта праўда

[Unikatze]

That tile must have turned out really clean after this.

[needformadnessman]

poor roomba is retarded.

[britbeetle]

I believe the polictically correct version of that would be "Poorly Programmed". Shame we can't apply the same definition to humans =P

[needformadnessman]

oh lol XD

[d0md0mt0mt0m]

I don't think it's that, I think it's seeing the mortar in between the tiles as cliffs.

[stephano1990]

Perhaps it sees the room between the tiles as clifs?

[RangersReview]

mine did the same thing, i cleaned the cliff sensors, but it didnt help.

i ended up just throwing it away.

neat machine, but not reliable at all. mine lasted a year...barely.

[sparkywundermutt1]

Duh, just buy a really small house....problem solved.

[howlettman]

i want one that has like huge wheels so i can have it clean my huge house and then go out a dog door and mow the grass and pick up turds lol :)

[Actionpuny]

If it is still a trouble, you might as well hack it and make it do YOUR stuff. And you have the same Roomba as I do.

[joegirardeau]

the cliff sensor are dirty with dust blow the under side out with air

[Whack78]

^^x2 - it think's its about to fall down stairs, so it's backing up.

[Actionpuny]

IDK, may have had a fualty programming.

[jacoboforlando]

I think its becoming self-aware.

[wladosu]

terminator 4 !!!

[joedogg9836]

im pretty sure you have a problem with the front censor or bumper, need to get that fixed.

[zeo51]

its been drinking again! run for yur lifes!!!

[AxelX1]

I know exactly what is it about. You have to clean it. Take the screw-driver, brush , aircain and go in to. I have to clen my mothers roomba one-two times at year when the roomba starts with this behavior.

[taofledermaus]

If you search on the internet, I think google "roomba troubleshooting" you can push a series of buttons to put it into diagnostic mode. It will help pinpoint which sensor is acting up. Usually one of the optical sensors is blocked with dust. These things become high maintenance after a short time unfortunately. Tires breaking, beater bar bushings going out, and battery failure to name a few. The wheel sensors are troublesome too.

[SininenOsq]

This is a hundred bucks in America?!!?!??!

Omfg these are like 2000euros in Europe, that's about 2600 dollars :O

[George21T]

omg they cost 2600 in europe Wow.

[AxelX1]

Thas is no true, in Europe it cost this type cca 320$, i have my scoobas and roomba from USA, it is cheaper only the reclamation can be difficult.

[squarebanana94]

really? cos they don't have them here in Britain, well i've never seen one.

[fireonice12492]

i bet that one spot was pretty clean

[128j128]

It looks to me like the bumper on the front is broken, so it is always thinking it is crashing into something (and thus always backing up).

[drsvids]

Yup, that's what it looks like. The real fix was running the battery down to dead, pulling the battery and holding the start button down for 10 seconds, putting the battery back and charging for 16 uninterrupted hours.

[garyspokane]

Ours has exactly the same malfunction. We were on the verge of sending it for repair, but now we've got to try this "cold boot" strategy.

[DesignerAviaries]

Very impressive devices. Can't think of anything I'd rather spend a hundred bucks on.......even IF they crawled around the room spreading dust.

[laurabee4]

You should have gotten the brain surgery Roomba.
