iRobot made Roomba into an icon. Now, it's in a mess
If you really want zero network theres always Valetudo, https://valetudo.cloud/
But most of the vacuums want internet access for setup, but then work completely fine being blocked from the internet after.

Removing Jeff Bezos from My Bed
FYI there is https://github.com/Hypfer/Valetudo which acts as a replacement of the cloud service. I'd you buy one of the supported devices you root it to point to the Valetudo server (which you run yourselves). You can then put the robot on its own WiFi without Internet access if you want to be even more secure.

Xiaomi has provided official support for Home Assistant
I'll be the one to plug Valetudo in this thread I guess. Primitively, it replaces the cloud functionality on-device for robot vacuums (see supported models) and replaces it with local services that run offline and can connect to Home Assistant easily.
I will never buy another robot vacuum without Valetudo support as long as that project lives. It's great.

Sol-Ark manufacturer reportedly disables all Deye inverters in the US
As a consumer and homeowner I try my hardest to buy "smart" things that only have local control, especially for important systems like power and HVAC. Our standby generator has a manufacturer supplied wifi pod that I never set up. Instead I use an RS485-to-USB dongle and monitor it myself with open source software. Our HVAC is the same to the greatest extent possible. When shopping for a new robot vacuum Valetudo[1] compatibility is an overriding concern.
If/when we have solar installed it will not be connected to the manufacturer or distributor's cloud systems.

Servicing a iRobot Roomba from 2011
I have a roborock that I have taken apart a little bit and I thought it looked extremely similar to the article's Roomba from underneath.

Ask HN: What would it take to make a robot vacuum in the USA?
There are local-only robot vacuum options: https://valetudo.cloud/
But you shouldn't ask yourself why it isn't possible. The question is why it's not successful, or why there's no demand. America is satisfied by foreign alternatives. We don't want secure devices, we want cheap and simple devices that come in pretty boxes with the labels we like. Roomba wins because it caters to the lowest-common-denominator, the basest American that most shoppers embody.
And America doesn't care. You won't see a law demanding software transparency or firmware alternatives for domestic robots. We won't assemble them locally because our labor is too expensive, we won't manufacture the chips domestically because it's cheaper to import them. You won't see people owning USA-made Roombas for the same reason you don't meet people using a Purism phone instead of a Samsung/Apple handset; the market has spoken, and they are absolutely apathetic to anything but price.

Tell HN: Ambi Climate is closing down. Now I have 5 worthless units
Perhaps contact somebody from the Valetudo community with your problem:
https://valetudo.cloud/
https://www.reddit.com/r/homeautomation/
Maybe it can be solved with a simple firmware patch.
