iRobot Roomba 650 Robotic Vacuum Cleaner Review (2022)

The iRobot Roomba 650 is probably the most recommended, underpriced robot vacuum cleaner on the market. Its sleek design and satisfactory technology are always on point. It is a special creation whose main goal is to cover more and more ground without getting stuck.

The 3.6 inches tall Roomba 650 is ideal for every kind of home without any exceptions. It will fit under most furniture where a typical handheld vacuum would not help. Its budget is quite friendly compared to other pricier versions with the same capabilities.

Should you buy Roomba 650?

There is no other way around for a vacuum cleaner; it has to move in order to clean up. This is made possible by its powerful motor. The Roomba 650’s motor has more power and is a lot quieter compared to its predecessor’s motor, the Roomba 620. The interior brushes rotate in opposite direction so that the dirt collects in the bin.

The Roomba 650 comes with an auto-scheduling system. The bin doesn’t have to be emptied daily so you don’t have to worry about it filling when you are away. Of course, it will fill up much faster during the first few runs. When it gets stuck- “It will stop itself and signal an error code. You will need to untangle it and restart it to continue its cleaning cycle”, one customer advises on Amazon.

The R14 batteries-powered virtual wall simulates an infrared barrier that prevents the vacuuming robot from accessing restricted areas. The beam has a very wide coverage. However, the battery pair used to power the virtual wall is not included in the package.

The Roomba 650 uses the characteristic Roomba iAdapt feature with sensors. This feature enables the cleaning robot to map the room by scanning the room every minute. Although they are not very effective at this, the sensors prevent the robot from knocking on walls and furniture. This shortfall comes in handy in some way- the Roomba 650 cleans where other robotic vacuums would shy away. However, it avoids tall obstacles over 2/3 2inches where it could get stuck. This means that the Roomba 650 can navigate effortlessly from a lower tiled floor to a carpeted one.

What you get after you buy iRobot Roomba 650?

Besides the Roomba 650 itself, you will find the charging dock, one virtual wall, and an extra filter inside the package. The charging base does not take up a lot of space- it is about 5 inches wide. The robot’s long lasting battery recharges fully after about 3 hours.

Pros	Cons
– Larger bin – One-touch start – Very quiet – Reliable battery – Impressive aesthetics – Relatively inexpensive	– The battery takes a long time to fully recharge – Leaves patterns on most types of carpets – Not smart enough

Conclusion

The Roomba 650 will give you a full robotic vacuum experience. It does not leave out any customer expectations including style and sophistication. It delivers everything that the Roomba family’s pricier versions would- smart, simple, and clean!

The iRobot Roomba 650 is a perfect fit for open spaces with any type of floor preferably in a home with kids – “Bought this for my son for Xmas but was over when it was on and not that noisy. Son has 3 cats who seem to ignore it. It is much quieter than an ordinary vacuum and works really good on rugs and also on kitchen floors”
