I'd be curious to see how all the sensors hold up after a couple months of regular cleaning. I have an older model Roomba and am blown away by how durable it is. The sensors are extremely primitive and it doesn't have any capabilities to map rooms like newer robotic vacuums, but it manages to do a great job without any dust getting in after months of use.

Granted, I haven't had an opportunity to tear apart newer models, but I'd be really surprised if the more advanced sensors would be much more prone error after a bit of dust gets stuck to them.
