How long does the Roomba run on this battery per cleaning?
1459057
The Roomba runs about 2 to 2 1/2 hours and seems to charge faster than the original Roomba battery. Have only had the battery for about 1 month but so far am very pleased with the performance.

Actually longer than it did on the original battery. It runs for about 1 3/4 hrs.

This battery had a very short life. I was very disappointed in performance. As far a cleaning and battery life, I have dogs and must clean system daily. Hope this helps.

I don't know. As far as I know, it has never been run until the battery was out of power. It is left in the charger when not in use. This is NOT our primary vacuum cleaner. It will probably get more use as we add more wood flooring to our house... Which is happening now.

I bought a Roomba several years ago and returned it because of tassels. Here's the problem: while the Roomba would "spit out" the tassels is sucked in, it wound up doing this all the time. It never learned to pass over the tassels the next time. This means that a huge percent of battery drain could be attributed to this aspect of the cleaning.

The battery does not last. May as well just buy battery from roomba. Tried this and it lasted about 4 mths.

I had my Roomba model 4210 for at about 7 years before I gave it away to a friend that was interested in getting one, The only thing I had to replace in the time frame was the battery a couple of times, Other then that it always worked. I purchased a newer model after I have that one away.

I have a Roomba, too, so I use that to vacuum the floor & the iRobot to wash it.It's clean!!

I got the vacuum just for that purpose! the battery holds 20-30 min charge, and it works well for me in the car. not great at removing pet hair, of course, but otherwise fantastic.

I think it takes a lot more battery power, but I just used mine on extremely thick at leas 1" carpet or more and it didn't have a problem cleaningthrough it.

Please plug the charging dock into a power outlet and place the Roomba onto the charging dock. Turn on the Roomba by pressing the 'Clean' button. Press and hold down 'Spot' and 'Dock' for 10 seconds. Your Roomba will restart and the battery will be activated. Proceed to charge the battery before using it.

I bought it as a replacement battery and did not power up Roomba. I tried to troubleshoot it and could not get Roomba going. I will junk Roomba. Invested enough time and money already into it!

I have had the vacuum just over a year. The battery (on a full charge) now lasts only about 5 minutes - if that - before significantly powering down. I've been trying to find a replacement, but am not sure what kind to get.

My vac runs for 10-12 minutes. If I forget to plug it back in, it will not have any charge. I still like my little vac, because it does what I want, quick pickup in busy areas without dragging out the heavy house vac. I noticed there is a new cordless out with a much large battery. I would replace the battery, about $50.00.

I'd return it sooner than later. Ours did the same thing and completely dead within 4 months. 1 month past their warranty and they wouldn't do anything about it. We're going direct to roomba as they have a year warranty on their batteries.

I never had Roomba or any other remote vacuum so I can't answer that part. This one doesn't give as many errors but you really really need to empty the space of wires, thin doormats or rugs otherwise you NEED to babysit it. It does its job though. Keep cleaning all the hair regularly and keep it away from water. I am satisfied with their after-sale service. My Hovo 510 needed repair within 2 months (I had bought a second hand from Amazon) and they asked us to parcel it and they sent it back in very few days. I also didn't want to spend 300+ so bought mine for less than 200 and can say I'm fine with it. Just once a week I take my standing vacuum and clean the corners.

the front section where the brush is 3" high and the section where the canister increases to about 12" high. Guess it depends how high your bed is. I can tell you, if you buy one you will need a second battery to sweep any length of time. With the brush running, only get about 20 minutes of run time.

My batteries are probably 6 months old and going strong yet. Neato cleans twice a day, 1,100 square feet.
