I finally got Roomba running again,I love it!
silviu2003 (Toronto, ON) 6/12/2014 11:55 AM
Was quite impressed with the quality of battery and charger. I finally got Roomba running again. Low charging time and long running time: I love it! But shipping sucked! Please! Please! Please add a RED WARNING for U.P.S. Canada! Worst possible shipping choice: they wanted $44 extra on top of the $20 already paid and held my package for ransom. I escalated and paid only duty & tax but the driver refused to hand me the package and was rude. There's no communication between UPS departments! Spent hours on phone, 8 calls!

My experience has been fantastic, very fast response and adaptation to my personal needs. The item was sent at a lighting speed. As a critic instructions for the battery charger are not clear but everything worked smooth.

Easy as Pie

I like the Roomba but having to replace battery packs on an annual basis made it a little more investment than what I wanted. It was really easy to swap out the packs. Just follow the instructions. Now I need to order the trickle charger and another set of cells to replace another dead cell set.
