Virtual wall 2003
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I purchased this virtual wall as a second wall and use with my dirt dog roomba and the scooba. First of all, despite being an old edition of the virtual wall, it works fine with the roomba/scooba (purchased in the past six months).
This wall performs its job as well as the newer model wall I received with the scooba. That is, it does just an ok job.
It seems to me that the wall produced by this virtual wall is composed by a circle around the wall itself, and a cone emitted at the wall. 3 settings are available for the size of the wall. But at any setting, the cone has a very large angle and will likely cover areas that you want cleaned, unless you spend a lot of time finding the right tilt to give the virtual wall. Also, the circle around the wall seems to me too big.
As a last note, I had the impression that the roomba/scoobas go crazy (either ignore the wall or stay way too far away from it) when the two walls are close by (say making an L shape), or when the wall is directly pointing at my physical white wall (I suspect some bouncing of the wall of the signal).
With all this drawbacks, I still think that for the $10 I payed for it it is a good value. Certainly, it is more practical than stacking up boxes and books to build a wall.

With the large openings I have from room to room this V.W. works well. I can contain the IRobot to completing one room before moving it to another.
Works very well – good value
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
The price on this has come down a lot, so it is now a good value. It works great and having an extra wall or two allows the Roomba to work much better. We have found the Roomba works best when confined to a 10×10 space – or something similar. When left to roam a large room, it just gets confused and runs over some areas of the room many times, but leaves other untouched.
These take D cell batteries, but the batteries last forever.
Roomba Virtual Wall review
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I ordered two, and they arrived quickly. They don’t work consistently, which is a problem, but I don’t know if that’s the fault of the virtual walls or that my Roomba is old (perhaps the Roomba isn’t seeing see the “wall” at certain angles or in certain positions). But they did arrive quickly!
Roomba is so disappointing
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I’d tell you how often I use this whole Roomba system (which I BEGGED for, my husband did not want to spend money on this), but I have long since given up on the hope that it would find our dust bunnies. It went to a charity drop-off point years ago.
Roomba is something I’d turn on and let run across our wood laminate floors while I paid bills, made dinner, or worked on the computer. the whole downstairs was an open, smooth surface which seemed to ooze dust bunnies daily. Roomba would creep around, painfully slowly, for HOURS, coming within 1/4 of an inch of each dust bunny, and never “find” it. It was so aggravating to watch that I’d drop whatever I was doing and grab a real vacuum so I could turn off it’s irritating sound. It was loud, and a FAILURE.
