 Old Roomba revived from the dead September 30, 2005
20 out of 23 found this review helpful
I wasn't quite sure why my generation 2(?) Roomba would just shut down right after starting, but I suspected the rechargable battery. This battery works almost twice as good as the original one. 49.99< 279.99.... You know a brand new Roomba!
Really does hold a charge better than original. March 2, 2007

The original was fine, but unimpressive, generally. My initial battery died pretty quickly, going from over an hour, to around 15 minutes, to under... anyway, after a few charges and discharges, this lasts considerably longer than the original.
It does what it's sold to do. Half the reviewers are rating Amazon's ability to ship the battery on time, somehow... mine arrived in 2 days (prime).
Good price, good product.

Though a different color, this is indeed the proper replacement battery for original Roombas. If you are lucky enough to have one of these classic machines around in good mechanical condition, do not fret and buy this battery now. You will be amazed and how your little guy springs back to life. Though a bit pricey, this is far less than you'd spend on a new machine. Unless you really need the features introduced on the new units, buy this intead.
My unit went from barely being able to complete one room - and slowly, at that - to doing at least five rooms, each at top speed.
Easy to install and much more power April 16, 2006

This battery pops right in to the Roomba--no tools or disassembly required to install it. The improvement in charge life is noteworthy over the battery that came with the Roomba at the time of purchase. I can now use the Roomba to clean 3 rooms on a charge instead of one. Totally pleased with my purchase!
Item's great, but don't buy it here... June 10, 2006

Roomba's web store sells it for $59.99, so my guess is that's the proper list price. Found it for $20 less on ecost.com.
