The Roomba i1 isn't the most powerful robot vacuum, but does a perfectly respectable job for its price range. It vacuums up most dust and small debris, thanks to two multi-surface rubber brushes which are responsible for dislodging and picking up dirt. The suction is effective on hard floors and carpets, a little less on high pile carpets. Fortunately, its “Dirt Detect” sensor allows it to recognize the most dirty places.
