After using the Roomba 692 for about two weeks, I have to say, it’s been mostly a positive experience, though it’s not without its quirks. This little robot has been great at keeping my floors generally tidy. It’s really convenient to just press a button and let it do its thing without needing to supervise it. The app integration is also a nice touch, making it super easy to schedule cleanings or give voice commands. However, there have been a few times when it got stuck under furniture or tangled up with cables, which was a bit annoying. I’ve also noticed that it’s a bit noisier than expected, and without any mapping feature, it tends to miss some spots. Still, it’s definitely reduced the amount of vacuuming I have to do myself!

I’ve been using the Dreame L40 Ultra for a few months now, and overall, it’s been a fantastic addition to my cleaning routine. With pets at home, hair and dirt pile up quickly, but this vacuum manages to keep things spotless. I love how quiet it is—even the charging station operates softly. The customization options through the app are impressive, allowing me to schedule and adjust cleanings exactly as I need. Plus, the built-in camera is a fun bonus; I didn’t expect to use it much, but it’s handy for checking in on my cat!

That said, it’s not without its quirks. The AI and navigation software feel a bit unfinished at times; for instance, it sometimes struggles to go under low furniture or leaves streaks on the base after a run. The water container also could be easier to handle—filling it requires a steady hand! Despite these minor issues, I’m overall very happy with this vacuum, and it’s made keeping my home clean much easier.
