I've decided to buy a roomba for a birthday gift, but I'm not sure which model to get. Its between these two models:

I like the scheduler as you can, well, schedule the cleaning. However its remanufactured and thats got me worried. Any advice?

LOL!! :P My Family had a roomba.. But our apt was very VERY cluttered so a roomba didn't do good for us.. and it kinda stoped working on the 1st day.. but if you have a spacey place its a great thing to have!:D
i had the orignal grey one

Yeah our place is sorta spacey, I'm hoping it doesn't break down.

The problem I've had with my roomba is the battery won't hold a decent charge. This supposedly is a common issue. There are some troubleshooting steps you can do but I haven't had much time to mess around with it.

I can still use it, I just can't set it and forget it like I used to.
