Early Infancy Death

Date of Review:  Dec 14, 2007
The Bottom Line: Loved the cleaning job, hated the fast breakdown. Hope it's just a fluke. Could be a real help for my large, active family.
Review: I received the 560 as an early Christmas present.

After charging it up, I let it take a spin around the living room and was really, really impressed at how thoroughly it cleaned. It's cleaning path is admittedly odd-looking, but if you let...

560

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2009
The Bottom Line: Skip it.
Review: My first 560 failed after 1 year just inside the warranty period and the replacement they sent me lasted about 6 months.  They seem to get stuck going around in circles.
But, while they work they do quite a thorough job cleaning and they are fun...

This Will Show The Dogs and Wife Who's The Boss.

Date of Review:  Jul 3, 2009
The Bottom Line:

If you like those electronic gadgets then you need to get this for your house.

Review: Years ago, when my wife and I purchased the original Roomba, which was a close copy of this model.  The irobot Roomba 560 robotic vacuum can do carpet, hardwood floors, vinyl, ceramic tile, and just about any type that you can think of.  They sell...

Love it...but spring for the extended warranty!!

Date of Review:  Aug 25, 2009
The Bottom Line: Unless you have OCD & obssessively vacuuming with a high-quality upright daily is normal for you, YOU NEED THIS.

2 kids = lot of crumbs = no match for Roomba
Review: The Problem: Everyone in my family hates vacuuming, so it doesn't get done.  Then hubby does it, & b!tches about it...but the rest of us would still rather hear the b!tching than do it ourselves.  That's how much we hate it.  And our old upright is...

I love my little robot vacuum!

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2009
Review: After installing hardwood bamboo flooring upstairs and downstairs at my house, I really had no idea how much dust, dog hair, and other random junk would accumulate every week. I drove myself mad pushing a swiffer around every single day. It was just...

Rotten Roomba

Date of Review:  Oct 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: I would not and could not possibly recommend this product and I'm a college trained electronics engineer, it just doesnt work for more than a few days at best.
Review: I've had a 560 for about eigtheen months now and spent more time stripping it down and fiddling with its nether regions than doing my own job.  I've bought a complete new brush set, side brushes by the score and even a couple of filters and now the...

Lot of flash, but not much payoff

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 2009
Review: I have a big space (loft) that probably is challenging for a vaccuum like this, but it wasn't very effective still.  I have concrete floors, a deep pile rug and a thatched rug in my upstairs.  The roomba did a poor job of navigating around and...
