Can you use a Roomva without connecting it to the internet?
Older models, yes but not the newer ones.
I have a roomba and I’ve never connected it to anything but the wall for power.
Do you press a button on robot to start cleaning or what?
Yep, just touch the button on the top.
It’s got a clean, dock, and spot clean button.
Would you mind sharing what model it is, if you know offhand?
Mine is just the base roomba model
Like the most recent one, or did you buy it several years ago?
Like the cheapest base roomba on Amazon, I’ve had it a couple years so my info might be off.
OK cool! Sorry for all the questions, I'm looking into getting one and would like it to be as dumb as possible haha. Thanks!
Yeah I checked their webpage and they seem to be pushing the top models and I couldn’t even find the lower model, but I think Amazon has them still?
