It’s quite common for people to wonder if the robot is actually able to navigate freely around your house.
Even if the dual-mode virtual wall gates is going to help it drive to a specific area, it may only be able to clean only an enlarged space, without reaching to other rooms unless it “bumps” itself around a nook. If by any chance, gets behind a door, it’s going to clog in a room.
Once it’s jammed, the iRobot Roomba 805- is going to sound once. If nobody comes to the rescue, an automated voice is going to let you know that you need to move it to another field in order to complete its cleaning job.
