Can you use a Roomva without connecting it to the internet?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have a roomba and I’ve never connected it to anything but the wall for power.

Do you press a button on robot to start cleaning or what?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, just touch the button on the top.

It’s got a clean, dock, and spot clean button.

Would you mind sharing what model it is, if you know offhand?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mine is just the base roomba model

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Like the most recent one, or did you buy it several years ago?

[–] prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Like the cheapest base roomba on Amazon, I’ve had it a couple years so my info might be off.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

OK cool! Sorry for all the questions, I'm looking into getting one and would like it to be as dumb as possible haha. Thanks!

Yeah I checked their webpage and they seem to be pushing the top models and I couldn’t even find the lower model, but I think Amazon has them still?
