Roomba 690 pros & cons
- It precisely indicates a dirty area and moves exactly towards it and does it even a couple of times
- The App is definitely helpful, it suggests how to solve the problem in case it has stuck, in addition to an immediate signal
- I suppose it should have a sensor on the top because it’s constantly sticking
- In the kit there is only one tower, so you can protect only a doorway but e.g. a dog bowl will be left behind
- Be ready for its bumping at first times, but then it will get used to it and remember the interior
Roomba 665 pros & cons
- It’s able to match any kind of hardwood because it has a two brush cleaning system where both work incoherently. The floor really shines after it
- I’ve seen it uselessly continued vacuuming when everything was done but it didn’t return to the dock station
- I have all types of the surface at home: tile, carpet, hardwood, so it’s a challenge for a robovac. Roomba 665 gets stuck on the carpet under the back of the recliner and shuts off

Both of these models have the same using area – 1000 square feet. So, this factor doesn’t influence the final choice.
