Dagobiet, Nicholas, and Yannick from rtings said that The iRobot Roomba E5 isn’t a bad overall robot vacuum, but there’s nothing that really stands out about it.
It automatically detects the surface it’s on, adjusting its suction power and height accordingly, so you don’t have to. It does an outstanding job with cleaning small and large debris on bare floors, but it quickly loses its performance as the dirt compartment fills. On both low-pile and high-pile carpet, it easily cleans all hair and struggles with finer debris.
It’s a well-built robot vacuum that has an outstanding battery life, a decently-sized dirt compartment, and its two brushrolls are rubber, which helps reduce the amount of hair that gets tangled. Unfortunately, there are quite a few parts that need maintenance and it has more parts that you need to replace than most other vacuums.
