Probably because it costs more than $5 to ship to those states.
If youâre going to spend this kinda dough on a Roomba youâd might as well spring for the 800 series. The silicone cleaning mechanism requires significantly less maintenance than the brushes on the older models.
WOOT, why do you keep trying to sell the Belk in Duo Tri Fold Fip with Stand? Perhaps we should all step up and purchase one to get this dog off the books.

are you effin kidding me a $400+ ROOMBA!? No⊠Iâm sorry⊠get a shark vac and spend 15min cleaning your place. This is insane.

It takes me much longer to get a vacuum out of the closet, move all of the chairs in my dining room, put them back, find an available outlet in every room because of how the apartment is laid out, etc., than 15 minutes. And I sure as heck donât want to do that every day. I have a roomba, and it runs like a champ every morning for me (while Iâm at work), keeping up with my tailbone length hair and my catâs hair that get all over everything, and the leaves the dog tracks in, an whatever else is on the floor. Plus every other vacuum I have ever tried traumatizes my animals, and they donât mind the roomba at all, which means a much more peaceful household. No, it doesnât have the best suction, and, yes, it sometimes misses a spot here or there, but what it misses one day it will get the next. I donât like spending all of my free time cleaning, so the 2 minutes it takes me to empty the bin and check the brushes versus the 30 minutes it takes to vacuum my apartment is well worth the money spent, as itâs far cheaper in the long run than hiring someone to come clean for me and well worth the convenience. For some of us, these things are golden.
âNO longer?â You mean you did at one time and stopped? Please explain.
We did for about 1.5 - 2 yrs but stopped earlier in the year. We couldnât budget it on the $5 shipping and our system isnât set up for multiple shipping costs at this time (other than expedited). Itâs something that management is continuing to review.
I donât see the battery charger listed in the âwhatâs in the boxâ. Does this come with a charging station?
Yes, the Self-Charging home base is included with this item.
