Amazon Cancels iRobot Deals

Amazon has pulled out of the planned acquisition of Roomba maker iRobot. The company stated that the deal had to overcome "undue regulatory obstacles." The company will pay iRobot an breakup cost of $94 million.

The acquisition was found to be anti-competitive according to the European Commission (the EU's executive arm, and also the top antitrust enforcement agency).

The app will guide you through the process of setting up, using simple video-game success sounds. A robotic voice then announces your device's connectivity. You can also control it using your voice, thanks to its compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.

The only drawbacks are the battery's limited life and the inability to dump debris into a separate dustbin, which could significantly reduce hands-on maintenance requirements. The sensor suite isn't as reliable as our top choice. However, the app offers the possibility of contributing to its machine-learning algorithms by sharing photos of specific objects you see while cleaning.
