3.4/5
mixed
Reviewers praise
  • Cleans carpets thoroughly, matching or exceeding higher-end Roombas in deep-cleaning tests
  • Self-emptying base holds weeks of debris and works reliably
  • Dual rubber brush rollers resist hair tangles better than most competing designs
Reviewers push back
  • Cannot create no-go zones in the app, requiring physical barrier accessories
  • Poor obstacle avoidance—bumps into objects unless they trigger its contact bumper
  • Mapping takes multiple cleaning cycles to stabilize and remains less precise than camera systems
Reviewers agree the i3 EVO cleans carpets well and empties itself reliably, but its floor-tracking navigation lacks the room-boundary controls and obstacle avoidance found in camera-based models.
— best for: Pet owners with mostly open floor plans who want reliable carpet cleaning and hands-off bin maintenance without paying for camera navigation.

I bought a Roomba several years ago when I lived in a single story house. I have two hairy pets, and the sweeper did a great job on the carpet and vinyl floors there. I now live in a house with two floors. The new Roomba was purchased to clean the hardwood and tile floors upstairs. The older model still works and is taking care of the carpeted area downstairs. Both work very well and save my partn Suzan A. · overstock.com
