I need to find a way to make barriers for my INLIFE i7 Robotic Vacuum because they don't sell them anymore. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Is this the style of barrier you are looking for to fit your vacuum?
I found it on ebay.

  Thanks, but no. I think that's a bumper. A barrier stops the vacuum from going places you don't want it to.

  Oh, OK. I though you were looking for a replacement part that acts as a barrier inside the vacuum. (This part is called a barrier.) But I can see now from all the other answers that your question is asking about the other kind of barrier.
  Hope you get an answer you are seeking.

I have never used a robot vacuum, but for the areas you want to build a "wall" could you put a line of shoes or something handy in your home that is sitting close by? We remove our shoes/boots at the door and sit on a bench so they are always handy is why I mention shoes. Everyone has them in the home, but not necessarily handy. Anything you have you could put down for a temporary fix while the robot vacuum runs? Maybe get the kids to help set it up and take it down? Just a thought, hope this helps Lisa.

  Thanks so much. I've been doing exactly that, but it's so much work because we have an open floor plan, uggh😕.

  I would try a light weight hose or something you could put down easily and coil back up when you are done, or a rope. Hope this helps!

  I like that! I'm going to try it. My little vacuum is super aggressive, but I think it might work 😉. Thanks!

Mine came with a strip to lay on the floor in open areas and it will not cross it. It turns and goes a different direction.

  Mine came with a little box that sends an infrared light which stops it, but it only came with one and the company is out of business. I thought for sure someone would have invented a universal one by now, but no luck. Thanks😊
