If iRobot goes bust, what happens to your Roomba?
Briefly

iRobot, facing dire financial challenges, has announced a complete redesign of its robot vacuum product line in a bid to reclaim its market share. Recent SEC filings reveal heavy debt and declining revenues, forcing the company to cut its workforce by 40% and implement cost-saving measures. With the launch of four new Roomba models, iRobot is adapting features from competitors to win back customers. However, if sales don't improve, the company has warned of potential insolvency within a year, leading to possible sell-offs or mergers to secure financing.
If the new Roomba product line doesn't sell well, the company may be unable to sustain operations beyond 12 months.
iRobot is banking on the launch of a completely new product line this year to reestablish its spot in the robot market.
