Pros
Pro It's priced very competitively
The Roomba 690 is very good at cleaning all floor surfaces - wood, tile, carpets, and even rugs, and it deals well with all kinds of debris like crumbs, hair, and dirt. Although it doesn't have the suction power of more expensive 800 and 900-series Roombas, it gets the job done and costs 2-3 times less.
Pro It offers an amazing user experience for a mid-tier robot
This is one of the rare budget-friendly robotic vacuums that have Wifi and even Amazon Alexa compatibility. This means you can start your robot remotely from the app and create a cleaning schedule, or simply use voice commands to control it.
Cons
Con There are more powerful models
This robot cleans floors well, but it's nothing outstanding. If you have a lot of rugs and carpets, or if you need a robot that will go over the entire house, not just a room you'll have to take a look at more expensive models.
