My friend has a roomba... his dog pooped in the house one day....the roomba took the poop and smeared it alll over the house....LMAO
case closed...for me at least
Lololol I think that robot would make a good prank pal
hahahahahaha. I'm sold. no robot vacuums for me.
+Rene Castro
How often do you poop on the floor?^^
Celisar1 LOL if you have a dog, beware...
I am disabled and the Roomba is really helpful for me! I also have a cat so daily vacuuming is necessary.
Absolutely brilliant editing and charming presenters Kudos!

The regular vacuum can't carry cats.
I like Regular vacuum better than Robots
I love this versus series!
Cnet? do you mean the Verge
I love her
With Twins!
What twins? I only see Lauren.
She not a twin?!
What a quality series! I love the gimmick and as a person who's tried to do split screen 'clones' before Lauren is a very skilled actor.
Took me a good 2 minutes to realise they were the same person
or twins?
I thought they were twins
@@Irondiesel it's REALLY well edited, but at one point, you can see her point and her finger disappears.... but yeah, the script, acting and timing/editing were spot on
I think they’re twins look at the end
@@im_ya_stepfatha5252 same person. Her name is Lauren Goode
Its simple. Make all the corners in your house round and install a small elevator.
I agree, a piece of cardboard on stairs works for a Roomba so it can go up
A Roomba Ramp.
Gran's Stuff Do you know how much money that’s gonna cost?
Kayla Hues don’t bring your logic around here... shoo shoo
Ashrune lol
Lauren Goode: MAKE THE VERGE GREAT AGAIN!
A Dyson is never "a fraction of the price" of anything. If it has a competitor, they'll make it more expensive, even if they don't have to.
The apple of vacuums
Smooooth More like the Monster Cable of vacuums. At least Apple's build quality is top notch. Dysons are made of plastic.
Because a steel vacuum with glass dust bin would be practical. Idiot.
Antenox o
tomtalk24
Uhh, Kirby and Royal vacuums?
Die cast aluminum body and fabric outer bags with top of the line filtration.
They'll last you 25+ years if taken care of.
Dyson is not a regular vacuum cleaner, is high end vacuum!!
Try a sanitaire and you see a high end vacuum.
Ive had one its BEAST
+Train Man ummm no Sanitaire is an industrial vacuum that is terrible when it comes to filtration. it should be called UN-Sanitaire!
i have a dyson and it kind of sucks, no pun intended. my husband is getting me the roomba for christmas and i cant wait! i just hope its worth all the hype, does anyone have it and does it work efficiently??
I'm also looking forward to not having to spend so much time cleaning! i stay at home with my kids and dogs, so believe me, i spend ALOT of time cleaning the floors.
Frankly*, YOU'RE adorable, Lauren.
*don't call me Frankly
This style of review is pretty good because it lets pros and cons be interjected in ways that can't really be done when a single person is reviewing something. But I hope that Lauren still does a few single reviews between these, past highlights being her Nexus 6P first look.
Like this one? ua-cam.com/video/g-8rI7pbkCo/v-deo.html
you guys should do more comparison like this. time save with all the details.

I gotta say, at first it was kinda annoying, but this series of videos with Lauren Goode have become my favorites. Getting better with each installment.
You didn't even compare suction power😒
it's more about how they 'feel about it' then any sort of reality based information. You see, if she 'feels' it's better, then case settled, it's better regardless of facts to back it up. Sounds quite typical if you ask me.
The roomba doesn't really have suction power, it uses brushes.
I'm very immature
@@MathieuGosbee it has
The stairs are important to clean the old fashion way is about the best in my view
Lauren is really Goode at these videos.
Plot twist, Lauren Goode *actually* has a twin and they've been fooling us this whole time.. Genius.
Wow, never heard that one before.
What do you mean? Thought that was her twin the whole time.
So this is not edited.....
AuthenTech - Ben Schmanke if u go to the Description it only says Lauren Goode . Mystery Solved
DUH SHE WOULD HAE TO RE-COLOR HER HAIR FOR EVERY PRODUCT VS HE DOES!! THAT ONE SIMPLE THING TELLS ALL, JUST SAYING OLD ONE LEGGED JOSEPH T RETIRED NAVY
So I chanced upon this series just now, and just love it! Love the fun way in which the comparisons are broken down. And got to admit- that's some great acting!
these versus series are awesome.
also, Lauren is looking Goode
"You look like you have a lot of cats"
ROASTED
A roomba is more of a glorified broom. It doesn't have much suction, but it does totally replace sweeping the floor with a broom. I have four cats, indoor only, and lots of cat fur. I am totally happy with the roomba, it sweeps all my floors two or three times a week, and when I want a deeper clean, I haul out my vacuum and vacuum. With a wrecked back, the Roomba is absolutely the thing you want in your house. P.S. Hey you two in the video, both of your arguments and statements are valid, and in fact, Roombas and vacuums are apples and oranges, not really comparable at all.
You really put a lot of effort into these!
problem with roombas and similar robot cleaners is that they cannot clean into corners.
Best comparison series out there. A+ for editing
I love these vids featuring Lauren. The style is pretty awesome.
One of my favourite series on the Verge
It's easy... I have a Roomba that vaccumes 3 times a week. And I have an old Dirt Devil that I use for spot cleaning.
The Roomba doesn't do your cleaning for you. It just makes your weekly cleaning easier.
This is the best comparison format.
I have a Shark IQ with a self-emptying base, no bags. I bought it "like new", so I got hundreds of dollars off. Less than $300. I love the robot vacuum for the most part. Yes, it doesn't do my blinds or my ceiling or my couch, but I love how clean my floors are. They aren't as powerful as the regular vacuum, but the floors get done daily and I didn't vacuum even once a week before. Very noticeable how much cleaner my floors are. Love it.
This is pretty good!
The problem with the room a is that it's "stupid", it just bounces around, and sometimes after half an hour there are still dusty spots in a room. It works fine in dream apartments with no objects in the way, but in real life it isn't good for rooms where there's stuff stacked or tight corners like kids bedrooms. You NEED another cleaning method if you have a roomba: it doesn't take the place of a vacuum, it's just an extra. Get a Vorwerk Folletto (or whatever it's named in your country): it's very pricey, but it's another cleaning experience
The Folletto looks like a rebranded Neato botvac, love the smart navigation and suction on those things. Only downside is the noise.
The only negative of Roomba is its price, everything else has no real competition. I had a borrowed Roomba for a while, and it's awesome. One less chore to do, and those who live alone, know how much time it takes just keeping the place clean. And it does a really good job also. Would buy it right now if I had money to spend.
I like this series. It gets all points across without sounding too one sided so to speak.
Roomba+Hand held vacuum is all u need for a clean house
“A Dyson….Because I’m a grown up” 😂
-What do you call that thing?
-A dyson, because I'm a grown-up.
OMGGGG. I LAUGHED WAY HARDER THAN I THOUGHT I WOULD
"Dyson" cause Im a grownup😂😂😂
H& M or both, roomba can do the everyday cleaning. Once a month run the dyson.
Burn. 🔥😂
Hey I use a traditional vacuum and I clean my house which is one floored I clean it once a week
These 2 are seriously killing it! Keep up the good work guys :-)
you know it's just one person right? lol
1:23 The one on the right is a cybernetic organism , living tissue over a metal endoskeleton
That's the oldest dyson from 100 years ago
Lauren Goode you've passed the test. I've just watched you review a product I'm not remotely interested in just because you're in the video. Bravo
Forgive me I don't watch this channel a lot, but I just noticed 5 mins into the video that it's the same lady, I think 😔, very good camera work 👍
the space/room is quite lovely
I really miss Lauren.
I like these comparison videos
“What do you call _that_ thing?”
“A Dyson. Because I’m a grown up.”
LOVE THAT, HAHAH.
We've been using Kirby vacuums in the funeral homes for as long as I can remember. I'm going to stay with them. The disposable bags take a long time to fill and don't lose suction. I don't think a Rhoomba could do the job of picking up flower petals and normal foot traffic. I was born with a vacuum in my hand, as my parents had me cleaning and cutting grass as soon as I stopped crawling, lol.
Same with me. I have a Kirby that is over sixty-years-old and it still works great.
Twin sisters, great explanation for pro and cons versus the rumba. How long does the battery last for ( mean lifetime 2 years ?)
Okay but if I have a roomba run every other day, then I have overall cleaner floors and no need for a bigger dustbin. Plus, it saves time as you yourself don't have to vacuum yourself. But it isn't something to use all alone, it is best to pair with a stick vacuum for above-floor cleaning.
plus I mean roborock have been making killer vac+mop combos
I don't hate roomba... but it likes to tangle cords, get stuck in weird places, and or clean super deep into the carpet. They are an OK side-kick, but won't replace my central vac.
I feel like you could just turn this into an arguing with myself series and still be entertaining.
These two are really funny
Cool video, but does it keep your floors overall cleaner than normal?
1:59 Uhh, Dyson has a hygienic bin emptying.
Starting to watch these just for the nice editing.
I have cats and this great for my apartment.
6 years ago 3:28
6 years later: *Amazon* "👁👄👁"
But does it have good suction ?
Nowadays (2020) you can get a great “off brand” roomba for less than $250 on amazon. We have kids and having it automatically clean the entire floor very night changed our lives! As for the 2nd floor it’s not hard to just bring it up the stairs and then let it do it’s thing 🤷🏻♂️ although we do the second floor only once a week since it stays cleaner.
I hate it when I get surrounded by all my roombas.
We have 3 dysons a cordless and 2 cored ones I we called the Derick
When are these two planning on making out? I've been watching for like 4 minutes already.
She's the best
Love this, but the left one did react to the price before the right one mentioned it !
Fun video. You guys also failed to mention that the Roomba doesn't move stuff out of the way for itself. I think I'm going to buy one on Woot sale, but know that I'll still be keeping my Electrolux and my Hoover vacuums.
Got Roomba 630 for 70$ cad. Only thing is side brush module needed replacement which cost 15$ with shipping
"Dyson. Because I'm a grownup" LOL
The only reason I watched this is because the Laurens did the review. I do not need a vaccum cleaner. Thumbs up if you agree!
These used to be terrible. This was very good.
We bought our Roomba last week on a Black Friday deal. Day 1, skeptical. Since then, we love this freaking thing. It does our work. Nuf said. What other technology does your work?
It's best if you work hand in hand with robot vacuum.
I'd take the Dyson in a heartbeat
Production effort for this series 👏🏻
You two are so cute
It's so cute when it goes back to the charging dock lol.
so get both? yay!
my room cant be that clean like never
I love her
It would be nice to have one set to vacuum daily and a regular vacuum cleaner for deep cleaning once a week. My allergies might appreciate this. 🤔
here in Australia you can get a vacuum from Godfreys for like $99
Try the new Dyspn 360 eye robotic vaccine vs the Roomba
a tour de force
they should give this video a cable ace award
Both still need maintenance like removing long hairs and cleaning up filters and the Roomba or any other robot vacuum cleaner needs to be smarter and know when not to vacuum certain "accidents".
A roomba is a thousand times easier to take up stairs than a vacuum.
The roomba is better in every way, but costs a butt load.
Order on Ebay! I just bought a store returned 801 Roomba for $129.00 and free shipping. I've bought the 531 for $18.00. Great deals!
I vacuum regularly but I'm getting older. If you consider the cost of paying somebody to vacuum for you, that's what would be a better comparison!
The Verge clones women 😱
A roomba is okay if you set it to clean once every day, they can help maintain some of the dust in the house. That being said, a normal vaccum works better because even with a roomba, it doesn't get get tight corners and at times it gets stuck under stuff all the time.
I'm so confused are they twins or she the same person using editing ?
...
They're twins, r u blind?
+Fermin Um it's actually the same person hun
More videos like this please....
A Roomba versus Neato would be nice .
The important thing is the roomba just isn't very good and doesn't replace a vacuum completely. The roomba is good as a luxury item that will clean most of your floors more frequently than you and a vacuum will. But it doesn't replace a vacuum.
A recent article says people spend the happiest when the purchase saves their time, so yes, you are buying a dumb robot compared to a very intelligently driven upright vacuum, but according to reviews, most owners are happy. They say time is the most expensive commodity. I should be advertising for iRobot :D
i find it hilarious that after all these years, roombas are STILL using the really old school robot navigation technique of "bump into things a lot". it's even stranger considering roombas are still really spendy
neato robovacs work much better since they use LIDAR to see a room and plan a route out
This! Also the suction on the neato is incredible, it was better than my mini dyson.
It's so entertaining watching Lauren Goode just talk to herself for 5 minutes. I don't know why.
I bet it can do better at getting the corners because has anyone ever tried to get the corners with a vacuum it's hard because the vacuum gets in the way but the roomba look like to me it was getting more because of the spinning things that stretch out and spin so it's probably getting up more actually
Here my opinion no matter which robot vacuum you buy you still need a regular vacuum to do some deep cleaning and other places the robot left behind
Actually I look at the two angels than the vacuum machines.
i love my dyson. clean everything (bed, curtain,dog, etc.) including outside patio carpet /rug of dog/cat hair + bird seed mess :) wish it was lighter or came with robot to carry heavy dyson around.
Yea, she's a real beauty!
I didn’t realize it was the same person until the end when I looked at the comments...
