Just be careful because this costume covers up all the sensors. The myRoomBud kids did quite a bit of testing with the RoomBud covers to make sure that the virtual walls still work, the Roomba still finds the home base, and the wall following sensor still works.

And either way it is not good for the Roomba. I would know...

Ben, just because you had an issue with a RoomBud cover doesn't mean everyone will. I've had smoke from two of my reds and they were not wearing anything. U11 going up in smoke happens. You already brought this up in one RoomBud Topic, no need to dig up another two year old topic.
