Tough Weekend out here.

Very very little out there worth buying, except for 2 Roomba's for $30 for the pair. I've tested them, and they run for 9 to 10 minutes each per full charge. Is that normal or is that short? Should I invest in new batteries or are they good.

A Roomba should run close to an hour with a healthy battery. You can find new batteries for most of the
older models for about $25.00. Be sure and buy NiMH and not NiCad. Battery life is longer. Get the highest
AH (amp hours). If you clean them after each use, the Roombas should last. Most people confuse automatic
with no maintenance and simply do not care for them. I have bought a few dirty Roombas, cleaned them, and still use them today. I have 2 cats and wood floors; Roombas do a wonderful job cleaning up after them. You made a good buy.

Ok. $45 for 2 batteries and $200 in sales.
