SeekeriRobot Roomba E5
The iRobot Roomba E5 is an okay choice for cleaning bare floors. It cleans small and bulky debris like rice or cereal easily, though it can struggle with the latter as its dustbin fills up. It also may take an extra pass to fully clean pet hair on this floor type. While its battery life isn't especially long compared to some alternatives, it charges very quickly. It also feels impressively sturdy. Unfortunately, many parts need regular cleaning or replacing.

iRobot's Roomba e5 is a powerful robot vacuum with strong suction, long battery life, and support for app control and voice commands, but it doesn't stand out against the competition.
