IRobot Corporation Complaint - Do not buy anything from IRobot - Cleaning head and all plastic crap "made in China"
Cleaning head and all plastic crap "made in China" - Complaint
Well... This was a great idea poorly executed when the IRobot
corporation decided to involve China in the manufacturing. Everyone
here in America is quite familiar with the "crap" that China floods
our country with. Well this item is no different!
I have bought this "over priced" piece of plastic crap for my wife,
for Chistmas in 2007. Every month I was calling and having this and
that replaced. Finally....because of the tedious cleaning that was
necessesary to keep this running. I quit using it.
Over the 2009 Christmas holidays I decided to get it out and use it.
It did not clean one room before I started hearing this "clunk" "clunk"
sound and removing the dust bin I could see that the brushes were not
turning. Yet another cleaning head has failed!
You know....after spending $400 for something....that money should insure
the buyer that the item purchased is not a cheap piece of crap that
will break down continually until the manufacturer decides not to help
you fix it any longer! A year warrentee? Not good enough! If you
believe in what you make......and you know the term of "intended" usage.
Then give a warranty that reflects that! This cleaning head should have
metal hardware and gears and not the plastic crap made famous by the
Chinese hord. Americans are willing to pay extra for quality. But
until more Americans "wake up" and stop buying chinese crap....this trend
will continue until the economic collapse of this country.

You're asking for too much. One year warranty is the norm. If you have a complaint about the "chinese crap" that we're flooded with, then buy a $1200 item that will break down also.
