It’s important to adjust the detector’s sensitivity or place Roomba in a room where it won’t trigger any alarms.

Yes, Roomba is usually faster after mapping its environment. This is because the mapping process allows Roomba to navigate through the area more accurately and efficiently, avoiding obstacles and reducing the time it takes to clean the space. Additionally, mapping helps Roomba to create a more efficient cleaning path, reducing the amount of time it spends on areas it has already covered. As a result, a Roomba that has mapped its environment is generally faster and more efficient than one that has not.

The lifespan of a Roomba can vary depending on usage and maintenance, but on average, a Roomba can last anywhere from 3-7 years before needing replacement. Factors that can affect the lifespan include frequency of use, type of flooring, and whether the robot is properly cleaned and maintained.
