1 out of 1 found this review helpful
IRobot customer service said replacing btry would make roomba work again. Ordered new one from Amazon. Roomba still dead at one and a half years old. Btry probably good. Wrote IRobot and said would not buy another because they do not last, and would begin advising friends not to buy one.
Quite good, if a little too expensive September 14, 2008
I bought this seemingly too expensive battery to replace my original Roomba battery after it started to die on me after about one-and-a-quarter years of work. I should mention that it came in a parcel with just a plastic "baggie" around it and no manual or manufacturer's packaging (and for that it gets one star off). Another star off SHOULD be the price. (I thought about replacing only the rechargeable part of the battery inside - which would be cheaper in some case - but decided against it as I though if my saudering powers were a little off, I'd have to buy this battery anyway.) Still it seems to do the job well. Right now it's only a couple of jobs in, so no long-term rating yet.
 Great September 10, 2008
I robot 4905 Battery,, Bought this for my roomba Model # 4130. this is the first battery I have had to replace since I bought this 4 years ago. So far so good, I hope it last a long time. Shipping was fast. Great service.
iRobot battery September 2, 2008
The battery was delivered in a very timely manner and was sufficiently packaged. I charged it for 24 hours and it worked wonderfully. I don't know how long the life of it will be, but so far I am very pleased.
Good performer, but what happened to the price? August 28, 2008

These batteries at $49 were a pretty good value. They last for about a year and help your roomba save you time and effort. Considering how much work a roomba actually does on a single charge, it's amazing they last as long as they do.
BUT, $69? Sorry, that's $20 too much. When this battery dies, I'm going to go back to my upright. I hate it when I feel like I'm getting ripped off.
