    • Just the little things getting stuck 2 out of 5 cycles gets pretty annoying.
    • My previous roombas would occasionally get stuck in a small area like a bathroom or under a table and waste an incredible amount of time and battery power just bouncing around under there until it got out.
    • Like it got stuck on our furniture (with horizontal floor legs) the first 6 or 7 times we ran it
    • Sometimes it flubs up and gets stuck or lost (1 out of 10 runs), but it just amazes me most of the time.
    • Due to the design of the bin, it's actually also a bit more difficult to empty out the bin as the dust stays stuck in the plastic housing of the dust bin
    • I have had to adjust things to reduce the chances it gets stuck on things or sucks up a dog
    • So far, it's never gotten stuck under furniture...just sucking up the curtains or the kids' crapola.
    • all the furniture obstacles only getting stuck on one chair that has an angled base which he tries to climb up
    • It got stuck on everything and always died before I could get back to it to untangle and resume
    • It never gets stuck and it cleans fairly well
    • We had a few initial issues with the vacuum getting stuck behind the laundry room door since the vacuum would nudge the door open and then the door would shut behind it, but obviously that wasn't the fault of the vacuum (easily remedied).
    • Overall it's been great, we had one incident with some cat poop, but luckily Roomba got stuck shortly after picking it up, so it didn't smear across the whole house
    • Once it got stuck when it sucked up a 4x6 thin piece of cardboard and it couldn't spin the rollers any more.
    • The first week was rough as everyday the Roomba, named Alfred in our house; would eat something it shouldn't, get stuck under a piece of furniture, or die before it made it's way back to home base.
    • It goes where my last vacuum couldn’t go and picks up 3 times more, especially dog hair, it doesn’t get stuck on my throw rugs either which amazes me
    • He has a problem getting stuck underneath the sofa
    • Horrible gets stuck on everything and never works
    • A new(ish) problem that we have found is that on a rug that looks like the picture below, the vacuum treats the black lines as edges, even when well lit and will not cross over them thus either becoming stuck or not cleaning the rug.
    • It may be solely relying on the camera.-Navigation isn't perfect even though it has yet to get stuck or fail to go to the charging base it will sometimes go over some areas and edges multiple times for no apparent reason.
    • The flaw, it gets stuck.
    • Really upset how easy the top plastic cracks from getting stuck under the couch
    • In the past week it has only gotten stuck once (sucked up a phone cable) and has not gotten lost at all
    • At least 1 out of 4 times running, it'll get stuck or the battery will die before it goes home
    • I'm never nervous about damaging the Roomba or it damaging the stuck whatever
    • It was always running into things, getting stuck on walls/furniture and would just miss huge areas because it seemed to rely on a strategy of random zig zags that would hopefully get enough random passes in to clean everything - which didn't work.
    • This is definitely a stepped up model that doesn't get stuck or lost like the last one (returned).Fact of the matter is that we didn't vac nearly as often as we should have.
    • The 980’s cleaning pattern seems to be repetitive.
    • n’t take 6hours to fully clean my 2 bedroom home
    • n’t had the 980 clog like that yet
    • and NOW THEY WON"T RESPOND, because it's
    • n’t want to be blowing this stuff in your house or garage
    • n’t work at all
