- Expert reviews:
- TheWirecutter.com states: The iRobot Roomba 890 has essentially the same bump-and-run navigation system as the Roomba 690 with the upgraded cleaning hardware of the Roomba 960. We tested the older 860, which is the the same robot minus Wi-Fi connectivity, and it’s a fine robot if you’re willing to pay more to deal with lots of long pet hair or thick rugs but don’t want to upgrade all the way to an advanced navigation system.
- Author’s review:
- I personally own the 895 – it’s the same as the 890 – and pitted it in a head-to-head test against the Hoover Quest 1000 earlier this week. .
