Nice addition to iRobot family

I bought this because I was so impressed with the Roomba 650.  I will add to this review but after 2 uses, I am glad have this little machine.  I purchased primarily to keep the kitchen floor clean in-between weekend mopping. Was impressed that it even went under our breakfast table.  I do need to buy another virtual wall to keep it confined to the kitchen/laundry room area as I would need to be around if it moved to the wood floor because it has problems avoiding the area rug.  As for the bathroom, it does a great job getting behind the toilet which is nice.  But don't expect this little machine to get a truly dirty floor that needs a little elbow grease.  It is more for cleaning up those little spills.  It is easy to use.  Would be nice if you could schedule it's cleaning time like the Roomba.  It is less noisy which is nice.

Since I do not have pets and live in a small house, I do not think I need the latest model when considering buying an iRobot. I researched online and even called up the company and they didn't try to sell me the latest model which was helpful of them. I ended up buy it in Amazon instead due to the discount and gift cards I had. Now that I have been using it for a couple of months, I love it as I can just put on the machine and let it run by itself every or every other day. I only need to use the normal vacuum cleaner every or every other week for the stairs which saved me a lot of time and stress. Totally worth every penny and I am now considering in buying an I-mob.

Overall this Bluetooth controller is very good. My OUYA broke a long time ago.  And for sometime everything set in a box but recently I started using the Nexus player, Amazon fire TV stick as well as the Amazon fire TV and this Bluetooth controller is compatible with all three. Making it a great device to reuse with other devices. I'm glad to see it come back out of the box and have a new life. it's especially useful because of the mouse trackpad built in.

This product package is perfect. Our iRobot 700 series was worth every penny and these accessories are perfect. I would recommend this package of replacement parts/tools.

I program as part of my job (and sometimes for fun), so I was curious how well this system would represent the basics for children.  First, it is important to respect children.  They are not dumb and, if motivated, could certainly use a full programming language.  However, toys can spark an interest.

When I first turned on the Room Defender, it was not clear what I should do.  Normally, this would be terrible user interface design, but it works perfectly for this.  It is meant to be a bit technical and obfuscated.  Looking in the manual, I was quickly able to set up a security password and run basic programs.  The style of programming is symbolic, with little icons representing different actions.  Each line of "code" consists of an input, such as pushing the red button, and an output, such as saying, "I'm busy studying."

The number of potential inputs and outputs is more than I expected.  The inputs consist of pushing the red button, entering a code, using a key card, opening the door, or knocking.  Unfortunately, I couldn't get the last one to work on any surface.  Outputs are also plentiful: flashing lights, an alarm sound, disarming the alarm (silent entry), playing sound effects, playing a recorded message, or even allowing the visitor to record a message like an answering machine.

For a simple programming introduction that still includes a lot of fun things to do, this is a great toy.  It is also just a fun device to have on a bedroom door and adds some genuinely useful functionality.  My only issue was that I couldn't get mine to respond to knocks no matter where I moved it.

This is a neat and easy way to talk about IR radiation and the memory stick insert is an added bonus.  Good functionality for the price and the addition of the visible camera to superimpose over the IR helps to define what is being viewed.

She arrived yesterday - charged the battery and turned her on this morning!  What a great job she did!  iRobot has seemed to improve a lot on the Mint.  This little baby is smaller and lighter than the Mint, but does a much better job.  We named her "Brenda" and she has joined my iRobot who we named "Rhonda".  I'm up in years and doing the floors was becoming a bit of a chore.  Now I won't have to rest every 5 minutes because my back is hurting and I can get the floors done as often as I need instead of putting it off.

As with the rest of the Rescue Bots in the Energize series, Heatwave is well built. He has held up to quite a bit of man handling (boy handling?) and rougher playing from my nephew. The Rescue Bots from this series are also quite a bit larger than subsequent ones, which I also like. Heatwave was easy for the kiddo to transform when he first got him at about age 3.5, and though he's starting to move up to the basic regular Transformers (one step changers), these are still in line with those, so he hasn't quite outgrown them yet at age 5. Overall a very good purchase, that I'm still happy with a year and a half later.

Although I frequently do reviews on products offered to me at a promotional price, this was a personal purchase. I paid full retail price,and was not asked, nor am I obligated to give a review.

I bought this pet vacuum cleaner as a Christmas present for my daughter and son -in-law. They have a dog and about 20 cats and needed a labour saving device to help with cleaning up after their animals. They are extremely pleased with iRobot as it works quickly and efficiently and saves them the chore of sweeping the basement every day.

My 6 year old has been begging for a tablet from Santa for Christmas this year. His 10 year old sister is receiving one, but I was reluctant to purchase one for him, as he is 6 and currently in a destructive state (not in a bad way, just in a normal 6 year old kind of way). His Nintendo DS lasted all of 3 months, while his Ipod Touch lasted 2 months. I was reluctant to buy a tablet at all. We love that LeapFrog has introduced a tablet for kids just his age.
The LeapFrog Ultra comes with 10 apps. When you register your device, you will be able to get an additional app for free (from a list of 3). I like that it allowed you to choose your last app based on your child's wants and needs.
The tablet was easy to set up, even for a child. My 6 year old instinctively knew what to do when it was turned on. Others comments on the load time, and it does take some time for the entire process to load, which was a little frustrating for my 6 year old. However, you will most likely skip this step entirely with your child. Just hand it to him or her once everything is loaded. This was ONLY noticed in the initial boot up (or when returning to home). To load the apps it loaded very quickly.
The device comes with many things loaded straight from the box, so you may want to set it up before you purchase anything. Included was:
10 songs (2 albums of 5)
Art Studio
Voice Memo
Pet Chat
Pet
Photo Fun
Clock (which also works as an alarm clock and to teach time)
Calendar (learn about dates, days, etc) You can also add birthdays and other events.
Calculator
Notepad

It does NOT come with any books, so that may be something to load right away. It comes with games only if that is what you selected as your 11th app, so games may also be something you want to purchase. You save 30% for registering your device, plus LeapFrog has buy 3 get the 4th free often.

The device is sturdy and seems to so far stand up to falls well. My son has been enjoying the pad, and hopefully will not mind now that Santa is bringing his sister a tablet.

I received the LeapFrog Ultra for review purposes from LeapFrog and MomSelect. I was not compensated in any other way. My opinions and experiences are my own.

I've owned iRobot products in the past (multiple, unfortunately) and they always let me down in both performance and reliability. So far, my bObsweep has excelled in it's performance. I did have to briefly get some warranty work done (at no cost to me) but am very satisfied so far. The floor that I have it on (approximately 1000 sq ft) is definitely complicated, but it manages to clean the entire floor very well.

My only complaint (having to have it serviced within the first 3 months) was completely mitigated by the extremely responsive and attentive support staff. Everything was resolved quickly with a personal touch from the support staff.

QuestionI bought this irobot which is used in China, I also bought convert voltage socket.
And then in the charging indicator light is not bright, and stops charging for about two minutes.
I don't know what to do? Does this can repair in Chinese iRobot company for free?

she is a great companion to my IRobot 650. You can actually talk to a human at this company and they act they care. The unit is great, does all kinds of floors, needs a bigger battery, otherwise, gets places I even miss. Gets under foot once in a while, but that is to be expected, if you want a specific area down like under a wastebasket, move the wastebasket... common sense goes along way with you new bud. There are ther to serve, but do occasionally move things, then I know they are doing there chores.

I can't wait for iRobot to come out with a product that does the stairs too.

Nice product, the Velcro that secures the tablet is very sturdy. The IR blaster is slightly obscured, not sure if this would be a problem or not. Will not likely use it as a remote :-)  otherwise a great price for a good product.

Nice addition to the snap circuit lineup. There seems to be only 3 experiments involving the rover itself with the rest being more traditional experiments however with the addition of using the RC controller. The RC rover is quite loud however so be aware. My son loves it though.
