Step 1 · Start with the robot

Where is the Roomba model number?

iRobot’s model-finding instructions point to the underside near the left wheel. Follow your robot’s handling instructions, turn it over carefully and record the printed model. Photograph the whole label or marking so the field names stay visible.

If the marking is worn or you find an unfamiliar code, keep the photo and move to your order details. Record the robot's own label; the charging dock has its own identification.

See iRobot's “How to find it” instructions

Step 2 · Confirm the product details

Check your original order or box

Look for the product name and a field labeled Model or SKU. Copy the complete code as printed, including letters and ending digits: for example, I315020. Check easily confused characters such as the letter O and the number 0 against the original.

The name on the robot and the retail SKU can use different formats. A shorter marking is a reason to check the order, rather than add digits yourself. For a secondhand robot, ask the seller for the original product details with personal information covered.

Choose your route: use the full US SKU in the HomeSpecWise checker, or use your model name in iRobot's accessories selector. On the individual part listing, check that your specific model and any Combo or Plus variant are included.

Step 3 · If you still need help

Use the app to prepare for support

iRobot documents these routes to your serial number:

  • iRobot HOME app: Product Settings → About [robot name].
  • Roomba HOME app: Product Details → three-dot menu → Product Settings → About [robot name].

Send the serial number privately to iRobot support, along with your label photo and available order details, and ask which model to select for the part you need. This app route provides a serial number for support; use the model or SKU for shopping.

Have one of these full US codes?

These four examples have published HomeSpecWise results. Choose the code that matches your order or packaging, then check the named part and any fit requirements on its result page.

For another model, try the model checker or iRobot's accessories selector. The examples above are a starting point, not a complete model list.

Next, choose the part you actually need

Common questions

How can I tell which Roomba I have?

Start underneath the robot near the left wheel and record the printed model. Check your original order or box for the model name and Model / SKU field, then use the matching shopping route above.

Where is the Roomba model number located?

iRobot’s model-finding instructions point to the underside near the left wheel. Photograph the marking and its field names. If it is worn or unclear, check your order or ask support using the label photo.

Is the serial number the same as the model number?

The model identifies the product you need parts for; the serial number identifies your individual robot for support. Save each with its field name and use the model or SKU when choosing parts.

Can I find the information in the app?

iRobot documents the serial-number routes listed above for the two apps. Use that serial number when asking support to help identify your robot. Your order or robot marking supplies the model details for shopping.

Do I need a full SKU to buy every replacement part?

Use the complete US SKU in our checker. If you have a model name, choose your robot in iRobot’s accessories selector and check the individual part’s compatibility list.

My robot and box show different codes. Which should I use?

Compare the field names first: a model marking, retail SKU and serial number serve different purposes. If the product details still conflict, ask iRobot support to identify the robot from your photos before ordering.
