RE: Roomba Vac Review Now On-line!



Yep - I've got an old pine table in the kitchen with chairs, which in
Roomba's eyes must be a virtual forest.  It managed to eventually work its'
way in and out of all the chairs.  The spiral thing doesn't necessarily last
until it bumps into something, it's just it's first stab at covering a
reasonable area, so the principle is to start it in the centre of the
clearest space, wherever that is in the room.

It's also only (about) 3.5" high, so it can work under tables, sofas etc...

Peter,

Does the Roomba work ok with rooms that have objects in the middle of the
room, like a table ?  My thinking is that since roomba works in a spiral
then not starting in the middle of the room might mean the some of the room
is missed.

Thanks,

Mark
