Review: Since I bought this tiny little home helper i haven't needed to sweep any of my wooden floors. It works really well and it it completely idiot proof, easy as pie to use, and it even charges its self. I have 2 cats and it copes well with their hair...

Great for MY needs!

Date of Review:  Jun 10, 2009
Review: I've had a good experience so far with my 560. I have an apartment with all wood floors. It doesn't take too long to get the place done and I don't think the little guy gets stuck nearly as often as I expected given several obstacles at my place. I...

Doggone Good!!!

The Bottom Line: For the busy family this is a real time saver, can be fun watching the dogs react to it also...
Review: Who Are We...
We are a Roomba family. We have had Roombas from the very first models through the Discovery series and finally to the latest purchase, the Roomba 560 series machine. Before I get into the full review of the product a little...

Definite Labor Saving Device - Happy Cleaning

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2009
The Bottom Line: I would definitely recommend the Roomba Pet Series for light duty cleaning any day during the week.
Review: I've owned a Scooba now for some time & even though I also own the Dyson animal vacuum (which I absolutely love), I had my eye on the Roomba Pet Series for everyday light cleaning.

I live in a house with two long hair black cats & 1 gray...

Roomba - It's Made Our Life Better and Our House Cleaner!

Date of Review:  May 28, 2009
The Bottom Line: We love everything about our Roomba - it tames the dog hair and dirt and does it well!
Review: I had the pleasure of test driving an iRobot Roomba 560 and just minutes into the first vacuuming I was in love! So much so that I purchased one! Even my VERY skeptical husband approves of it! We are a dust bunny-free home now thanks to our Roomba!...

Depends on what you want!

Date of Review:  Mar 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: High Maintenance, but convenient unattended operation for in between cleanings. May have reliability issues.
Review: We have a total of three roombas, a 560 and two 4110's. The 560 is broken right now (about 4 months of use), the main beater brush assembly is not turning, (probably broken teeth on the gears according to their website). We are awaiting a...

Roomba Grows On Honey Chases Johnny

Date of Review:  May 14, 2009
The Bottom Line: Join the Jetsons and get a vacuuming robot to help with your busy schedule. Roomba will do it for you.
Review: A few months ago I was perusing the AmEx website with some points burning a hole in my pocket. Honey and Johnny were across the country. AmEx had a deal on a Roomba 560. I thought I would surprise them on their return and ordered one. It arrived the...

Good upgrade from last model

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2007
The Bottom Line: Worth the upgrade. Enough significant changes to warrant the purchase
Review: I have had this Roomba 560 for about a week now. I have 3 other Roomba models, all of the last generation, which is the third. The new Roomba 560 has onboard scheduling, a very nice feature. My other Roomba models are scheduled via the remote that...

Not reliable.

Date of Review:  Jun 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: Don't buy this unit; wait for next gen or buy a cheaper model such as the red one, which has fewer features but actually works.
Review: I have bought and trashed a few iRobot products. My $300 Scooba is now unfixable. This Roomba 560 unit could be the last straw.

Out of the box, it is easy to set up, but you must have C batteries on hand to power the "virtual wall" devices...

I don't understand?????

Date of Review:  May 10, 2008
Review: I bought myself the Roomba 560 based on reviews. I have never spent more wasted money on anything in my life. First few days the side brushes broke and I have to admit customer service sent new ones out to me quickly. It takes FOREVER to do one room...
