@@Irondiesel it's REALLY well edited, but at one point, you can see her point and her finger disappears.... but yeah, the script, acting and timing/editing were spot on
tomtalk24 Uhh, Kirby and Royal vacuums? Die cast aluminum body and fabric outer bags with top of the line filtration. They'll last you 25+ years if taken care of.
it's more about how they 'feel about it' then any sort of reality based information. You see, if she 'feels' it's better, then case settled, it's better regardless of facts to back it up. Sounds quite typical if you ask me.
i have a dyson and it kind of sucks, no pun intended. my husband is getting me the roomba for christmas and i cant wait! i just hope its worth all the hype, does anyone have it and does it work efficiently??
I'm also looking forward to not having to spend so much time cleaning! i stay at home with my kids and dogs, so believe me, i spend ALOT of time cleaning the floors.
Frankly*, YOU'RE adorable, Lauren. *don't call me Frankly This style of review is pretty good because it lets pros and cons be interjected in ways that can't really be done when a single person is reviewing something. But I hope that Lauren still does a few single reviews between these, past highlights being her Nexus 6P first look.
I gotta say, at first it was kinda annoying, but this series of videos with Lauren Goode have become my favorites. Getting better with each installment.
A roomba is more of a glorified broom. It doesn't have much suction, but it does totally replace sweeping the floor with a broom. I have four cats, indoor only, and lots of cat fur. I am totally happy with the roomba, it sweeps all my floors two or three times a week, and when I want a deeper clean, I haul out my vacuum and vacuum. With a wrecked back, the Roomba is absolutely the thing you want in your house. P.S. Hey you two in the video, both of your arguments and statements are valid, and in fact, Roombas and vacuums are apples and oranges, not really comparable at all.
So I chanced upon this series just now, and just love it! Love the fun way in which the comparisons are broken down. And got to admit- that's some great acting!
DUH SHE WOULD HAE TO RE-COLOR HER HAIR FOR EVERY PRODUCT VS HE DOES!! THAT ONE SIMPLE THING TELLS ALL, JUST SAYING OLD ONE LEGGED JOSEPH T RETIRED NAVY
It's easy... I have a Roomba that vaccumes 3 times a week. And I have an old Dirt Devil that I use for spot cleaning. The Roomba doesn't do your cleaning for you. It just makes your weekly cleaning easier.
This is pretty good! The problem with the room a is that it's "stupid", it just bounces around, and sometimes after half an hour there are still dusty spots in a room. It works fine in dream apartments with no objects in the way, but in real life it isn't good for rooms where there's stuff stacked or tight corners like kids bedrooms. You NEED another cleaning method if you have a roomba: it doesn't take the place of a vacuum, it's just an extra. Get a Vorwerk Folletto (or whatever it's named in your country): it's very pricey, but it's another cleaning experience
The only negative of Roomba is its price, everything else has no real competition. I had a borrowed Roomba for a while, and it's awesome. One less chore to do, and those who live alone, know how much time it takes just keeping the place clean. And it does a really good job also. Would buy it right now if I had money to spend.
I have a Shark IQ with a self-emptying base, no bags. I bought it "like new", so I got hundreds of dollars off. Less than $300. I love the robot vacuum for the most part. Yes, it doesn't do my blinds or my ceiling or my couch, but I love how clean my floors are. They aren't as powerful as the regular vacuum, but the floors get done daily and I didn't vacuum even once a week before. Very noticeable how much cleaner my floors are. Love it.
We've been using Kirby vacuums in the funeral homes for as long as I can remember. I'm going to stay with them. The disposable bags take a long time to fill and don't lose suction. I don't think a Rhoomba could do the job of picking up flower petals and normal foot traffic. I was born with a vacuum in my hand, as my parents had me cleaning and cutting grass as soon as I stopped crawling, lol.
Fun video. You guys also failed to mention that the Roomba doesn't move stuff out of the way for itself. I think I'm going to buy one on Woot sale, but know that I'll still be keeping my Electrolux and my Hoover vacuums.
We bought our Roomba last week on a Black Friday deal. Day 1, skeptical. Since then, we love this freaking thing. It does our work. Nuf said. What other technology does your work?
Nowadays (2020) you can get a great “off brand” roomba for less than $250 on amazon. We have kids and having it automatically clean the entire floor very night changed our lives! As for the 2nd floor it’s not hard to just bring it up the stairs and then let it do it’s thing 🤷🏻♂️ although we do the second floor only once a week since it stays cleaner.
If you have a dog with long fur( like golden Retriever), the hair is going to clogging your Roomba. I have to disassemble the whole brush assembly and, the funniest part? I have to use a "dumb" vacuum to suck out all the unreachable hair and dust.
I don't hate roomba... but it likes to tangle cords, get stuck in weird places, and or clean super deep into the carpet. They are an OK side-kick, but won't replace my central vac.
A roomba is okay if you set it to clean once every day, they can help maintain some of the dust in the house. That being said, a normal vaccum works better because even with a roomba, it doesn't get get tight corners and at times it gets stuck under stuff all the time.
I find the Roomba to be SUBSTANTIALLY better at cleaning. It is also way easier to maintain. It runs daily and maintains cleanliness much better than a regular vacuum. It is easy to clean the rollers and empty the bin (like clearing dryer lint).
i find it hilarious that after all these years, roombas are STILL using the really old school robot navigation technique of "bump into things a lot". it's even stranger considering roombas are still really spendy neato robovacs work much better since they use LIDAR to see a room and plan a route out
i love my dyson. clean everything (bed, curtain,dog, etc.) including outside patio carpet /rug of dog/cat hair + bird seed mess :) wish it was lighter or came with robot to carry heavy dyson around.
Okay but if I have a roomba run every other day, then I have overall cleaner floors and no need for a bigger dustbin. Plus, it saves time as you yourself don't have to vacuum yourself. But it isn't something to use all alone, it is best to pair with a stick vacuum for above-floor cleaning. plus I mean roborock have been making killer vac+mop combos
I have a roomba and was euphoric about it for a while. Then I realised that in order to give it a chance to do a good cleaning (in corners, under the tables, etc.) I had to move a LOT of things in advance (staple the chairs on the tables, hide the cables, etc., etc.). In the end it was so much work that the bit of vacuuming left in between moving furniture around was nearly the same. Now the roomba lives a calm, retired life in the corner.
Had a roomba when they first came out. Expensive! Mum got a Dyson. Much easier. A mere human can operate a dyson with ease. Amazing, eh? Oh, yea,....the dyson has some very user-friendly tools that can be used to clean difficult corners and nooks and crannies.
I guess the Roomba isn't a direct replacement but it can be considered as a time saving tool. Have it do most of the work while you do the steps, couches, curtains and other tight spaces where the Roomba wouldn't normally be able to get to. I can see myself using a Roomba to save time; but is it worth the price?
I am disabled and the Roomba is really helpful for me! I also have a cat so daily vacuuming is necessary.
My friend has a roomba... his dog pooped in the house one day....the roomba took the poop and smeared it alll over the house....LMAO
case closed...for me at least
Lololol I think that robot would make a good prank pal
hahahahahaha. I'm sold. no robot vacuums for me.
+Rene Castro
How often do you poop on the floor?^^
Celisar1 LOL if you have a dog, beware...
Took me a good 2 minutes to realise they were the same person
or twins?
I thought they were twins
@@Irondiesel it's REALLY well edited, but at one point, you can see her point and her finger disappears.... but yeah, the script, acting and timing/editing were spot on
I think they’re twins look at the end
@@im_ya_stepfatha5252 same person. Her name is Lauren Goode
Its simple. Make all the corners in your house round and install a small elevator.
I agree, a piece of cardboard on stairs works for a Roomba so it can go up
A Roomba Ramp.
Gran's Stuff Do you know how much money that’s gonna cost?
Kayla Hues don’t bring your logic around here... shoo shoo
Ashrune lol
A Dyson is never "a fraction of the price" of anything. If it has a competitor, they'll make it more expensive, even if they don't have to.
The apple of vacuums
Smooooth More like the Monster Cable of vacuums. At least Apple's build quality is top notch. Dysons are made of plastic.
Because a steel vacuum with glass dust bin would be practical. Idiot.
Antenox o
tomtalk24
Uhh, Kirby and Royal vacuums?
Die cast aluminum body and fabric outer bags with top of the line filtration.
They'll last you 25+ years if taken care of.
Absolutely brilliant editing and charming presenters Kudos!

I love this versus series!
Cnet? do you mean the Verge
I love her
With Twins!
What twins? I only see Lauren.
She not a twin?!
The regular vacuum can't carry cats.
I like Regular vacuum better than Robots
Lauren Goode: MAKE THE VERGE GREAT AGAIN!
What a quality series! I love the gimmick and as a person who's tried to do split screen 'clones' before Lauren is a very skilled actor.
You didn't even compare suction power😒
it's more about how they 'feel about it' then any sort of reality based information. You see, if she 'feels' it's better, then case settled, it's better regardless of facts to back it up. Sounds quite typical if you ask me.
The roomba doesn't really have suction power, it uses brushes.
I'm very immature
@@MathieuGosbee it has
Dyson is not a regular vacuum cleaner, is high end vacuum!!
Try a sanitaire and you see a high end vacuum.
Ive had one its BEAST
+Train Man ummm no Sanitaire is an industrial vacuum that is terrible when it comes to filtration. it should be called UN-Sanitaire!
i have a dyson and it kind of sucks, no pun intended. my husband is getting me the roomba for christmas and i cant wait! i just hope its worth all the hype, does anyone have it and does it work efficiently??
I'm also looking forward to not having to spend so much time cleaning! i stay at home with my kids and dogs, so believe me, i spend ALOT of time cleaning the floors.

Plot twist, Lauren Goode *actually* has a twin and they've been fooling us this whole time.. Genius.
Wow, never heard that one before.
What do you mean? Thought that was her twin the whole time.
So this is not edited.....
AuthenTech - Ben Schmanke if u go to the Description it only says Lauren Goode . Mystery Solved
DUH SHE WOULD HAE TO RE-COLOR HER HAIR FOR EVERY PRODUCT VS HE DOES!! THAT ONE SIMPLE THING TELLS ALL, JUST SAYING OLD ONE LEGGED JOSEPH T RETIRED NAVY
The stairs are important to clean the old fashion way is about the best in my view
You really put a lot of effort into these!
It's easy... I have a Roomba that vaccumes 3 times a week. And I have an old Dirt Devil that I use for spot cleaning.
The Roomba doesn't do your cleaning for you. It just makes your weekly cleaning easier.
Lauren is really Goode at these videos.
This is pretty good!
The problem with the room a is that it's "stupid", it just bounces around, and sometimes after half an hour there are still dusty spots in a room. It works fine in dream apartments with no objects in the way, but in real life it isn't good for rooms where there's stuff stacked or tight corners like kids bedrooms.

Get a Vorwerk Folletto (or whatever it's named in your country): it's very pricey, but it's another cleaning experience
The Folletto looks like a rebranded Neato botvac, love the smart navigation and suction on those things. Only downside is the noise.
these versus series are awesome.
also, Lauren is looking Goode
Best comparison series out there. A+ for editing
The only negative of Roomba is its price, everything else has no real competition. I had a borrowed Roomba for a while, and it's awesome. One less chore to do, and those who live alone, know how much time it takes just keeping the place clean. And it does a really good job also. Would buy it right now if I had money to spend.
I like this series. It gets all points across without sounding too one sided so to speak.
Roomba+Hand held vacuum is all u need for a clean house
"You look like you have a lot of cats"
ROASTED
problem with roombas and similar robot cleaners is that they cannot clean into corners.
Lauren Goode you've passed the test. I've just watched you review a product I'm not remotely interested in just because you're in the video. Bravo
This is the best comparison format.
One of my favourite series on the Verge
"Dyson" cause Im a grownup😂😂😂
H& M or both, roomba can do the everyday cleaning. Once a month run the dyson.
Burn. 🔥😂
I have a Shark IQ with a self-emptying base, no bags. I bought it "like new", so I got hundreds of dollars off. Less than $300. I love the robot vacuum for the most part.

They aren't as powerful as the regular vacuum, but the floors get done daily and I didn't vacuum even once a week before. Very noticeable how much cleaner my floors are. Love it.
Forgive me I don't watch this channel a lot, but I just noticed 5 mins into the video that it's the same lady, I think 😔, very good camera work 👍
I love these vids featuring Lauren. The style is pretty awesome.
We've been using Kirby vacuums in the funeral homes for as long as I can remember. I'm going to stay with them. The disposable bags take a long time to fill and don't lose suction.

I was born with a vacuum in my hand, as my parents had me cleaning and cutting grass as soon as I stopped crawling, lol.
Same with me. I have a Kirby that is over sixty-years-old and it still works great.
Fun video. You guys also failed to mention that the Roomba doesn't move stuff out of the way for itself. I think I'm going to buy one on Woot sale, but know that I'll still be keeping my Electrolux and my Hoover vacuums.
That's the oldest dyson from 100 years ago
We bought our Roomba last week on a Black Friday deal. Day 1, skeptical. Since then, we love this freaking thing. It does our work. Nuf said. What other technology does your work?
Hey I use a traditional vacuum and I clean my house which is one floored I clean it once a week
the space/room is quite lovely
Nowadays (2020) you can get a great “off brand” roomba for less than $250 on amazon. We have kids and having it automatically clean the entire floor very night changed our lives! As for the 2nd floor it’s not hard to just bring it up the stairs and then let it do it’s thing 🤷🏻♂️ although we do the second floor only once a week since it stays cleaner.
It would be nice to have one set to vacuum daily and a regular vacuum cleaner for deep cleaning once a week. My allergies might appreciate this. 🤔
If you have a dog with long fur( like golden Retriever), the hair is going to clogging your Roomba. I have to disassemble the whole brush assembly and, the funniest part? I have to use a "dumb" vacuum to suck out all the unreachable hair and dust.
Starting to watch these just for the nice editing.
I don't hate roomba... but it likes to tangle cords, get stuck in weird places, and or clean super deep into the carpet. They are an OK side-kick, but won't replace my central vac.
I'm so confused are they twins or she the same person using editing ?
...
They're twins, r u blind?
+Fermin Um it's actually the same person hun
I feel like you could just turn this into an arguing with myself series and still be entertaining.
These 2 are seriously killing it! Keep up the good work guys :-)
you know it's just one person right? lol
The only reason I watched this is because the Laurens did the review. I do not need a vaccum cleaner. Thumbs up if you agree!
-What do you call that thing?
-A dyson, because I'm a grown-up.
OMGGGG. I LAUGHED WAY HARDER THAN I THOUGHT I WOULD
Cool video, but does it keep your floors overall cleaner than normal?
“A Dyson….Because I’m a grown up” 😂
When are these two planning on making out? I've been watching for like 4 minutes already.
The Verge clones women 😱
Alright c'mon at least get one of the newer dyson models. That ones almost ten year old now!
Lol right. I wouldn't trade my dyson dc39 animal for anything lol.
Newer isn't always better. I have a Kirby from 2003 and it still out performs a lot of modern vacuums.
It's so cute when it goes back to the charging dock lol.
I hate it when I get surrounded by all my roombas.
I have cats and this great for my apartment.
Sorry that cleaner cant do stairs
I'd take the Dyson in a heartbeat
A roomba is okay if you set it to clean once every day, they can help maintain some of the dust in the house. That being said, a normal vaccum works better because even with a roomba, it doesn't get get tight corners and at times it gets stuck under stuff all the time.
I find the Roomba to be SUBSTANTIALLY better at cleaning. It is also way easier to maintain. It runs daily and maintains cleanliness much better than a regular vacuum. It is easy to clean the rollers and empty the bin (like clearing dryer lint).
We have 3 dysons a cordless and 2 cored ones I we called the Derick
a tour de force
they should give this video a cable ace award
1:59 Uhh, Dyson has a hygienic bin emptying.
I didn’t realize it was the same person until the end when I looked at the comments...
here in Australia you can get a vacuum from Godfreys for like $99
i find it hilarious that after all these years, roombas are STILL using the really old school robot navigation technique of "bump into things a lot". it's even stranger considering roombas are still really spendy
neato robovacs work much better since they use LIDAR to see a room and plan a route out
This! Also the suction on the neato is incredible, it was better than my mini dyson.
i love my dyson. clean everything (bed, curtain,dog, etc.) including outside patio carpet /rug of dog/cat hair + bird seed mess :) wish it was lighter or came with robot to carry heavy dyson around.
It's so entertaining watching Lauren Goode just talk to herself for 5 minutes. I don't know why.
Here my opinion no matter which robot vacuum you buy you still need a regular vacuum to do some deep cleaning and other places the robot left behind
These used to be terrible. This was very good.
“What do you call _that_ thing?”
“A Dyson. Because I’m a grown up.”
LOVE THAT, HAHAH.
my room cant be that clean like never
Are y'all really twins or is it really good editing
1:23 The one on the right is a cybernetic organism , living tissue over a metal endoskeleton
Love this, but the left one did react to the price before the right one mentioned it !
That Dyson is old as hell. They don't look like that anymore plus they cost way more than $250
You can get them for 280
Mine was $629!
So what that it's old? My neighbor still uses a vacuum from the 50's!!
Okay but if I have a roomba run every other day, then I have overall cleaner floors and no need for a bigger dustbin. Plus, it saves time as you yourself don't have to vacuum yourself. But it isn't something to use all alone, it is best to pair with a stick vacuum for above-floor cleaning.
plus I mean roborock have been making killer vac+mop combos
Try the new Dyspn 360 eye robotic vaccine vs the Roomba
I have a roomba and was euphoric about it for a while.
Then I realised that in order to give it a chance to do a good cleaning (in corners, under the tables, etc.) I had to move a LOT of things in advance (staple the chairs on the tables, hide the cables, etc., etc.).
In the end it was so much work that the bit of vacuuming left in between moving furniture around was nearly the same.
Now the roomba lives a calm, retired life in the corner.
Twin sisters, great explanation for pro and cons versus the rumba. How long does the battery last for ( mean lifetime 2 years ?)
These two are really funny
It's best if you work hand in hand with robot vacuum.
Imagine if could program Roomba to make random noises as it moves. Of course people would tell it to do beeping noises from Star Wars.
After all these years still so expensive probably a sign not many people own one
next thing you know they have machines that do our laundry for us and wash dishes for us smh
Actually just watched a video of a laundry folding machine at CES this year.
I like these comparison videos
A roomba is a thousand times easier to take up stairs than a vacuum.
The roomba is better in every way, but costs a butt load.
Order on Ebay! I just bought a store returned 801 Roomba for $129.00 and free shipping. I've bought the 531 for $18.00. Great deals!
More videos like this please....
i couldn't help myself but think.... 2:33 "i vaccum a fair amount" :D
6 years ago 3:28
6 years later: *Amazon* "👁👄👁"

I'd rather just stick with my Kirby and Filter Queen lol
I really miss Lauren.
OK, after watching a couple of videos like this, i'm pretty sure she has a twin
