The newly launched Roomba Vac robot vacuum is priced at $179 and features Wi-Fi connectivity, making it accessible for remote control via a mobile app. Weighing in at just 6.2 lbs, this model has been designed with slight enhancements for a more refined appearance and an improved battery life compared to its predecessor, the Roomba 694.
While it lacks self-emptying and mopping capabilities, the Roomba Vac excels in cleaning performance. The user-friendly app allows for easy setup and control, even for individuals with no prior experience with such devices. Users are encouraged to utilize the scheduling feature for optimal results, ensuring consistent cleaning with minimal manual intervention.
With a runtime of up to 120 minutes on a single charge, the Roomba Vac automatically returns to its dock when low on battery. For those interested in additional features, iRobot offers a combo model that includes both vacuuming and mopping functionalities.
