Summary: The Roomba 960 is not as advanced as the marketing suggests. The hardware is upgraded, but the core navigation firmware still feels old.
Pros: - The app is convenient. - The waste bin is easy to empty. - The rollers are surprisingly good at picking up debris like cat litter.
Cons: - The "visual guidance system" is not very smart. It is constantly ramming into my furniture. - The device has trouble finding its way to the charging station in a 2 bedroom apartment. - It does not provide a way to manually remote control the unit like previous generations. - It gets stuck under and on top of furniture a lot. It is really good at climbing onto things, but it can get stuck on a 1" table or chair stand.

I have high shag rugs. Does this adjust to different rug levels?
If the rug is too tall it will think it is a wall.
