iRobot Roomba 560 Robotic Vacuum Review Summary

The iRobot Roomba 560 Robotic Vacuum is a "fabulous time saver." Included in the Roomba unit is a scheduler, meaning you can run this robotic vacuum even when you're not home, as it then returns to the charger on its own, preparing itself for its next use. The iRobot Robotic Vacuums go "right under the couch and sofa," meaning you don't have to be around to move them. The unit even pushes dog toys into a pile so it can go around them. There is a filter that needs to be replace occasionally, and some reviewers report that in addition, they clean the unit every time it's used, but find "the rollers come off very easily and the compartment that collects all the dirt/dust is easy to remove." More problematic is looking at what the iRobot Roomba picks up and realizing what you were leaving behind before using it. The iRobot Roomba 560 Robotic Vacuum is "very simple and easy to use right out of the box." Check into the other Roomba reviews for units with different features.

The iRobot is great! We have tile and hardwood floors that the roomba goes over very easily. Since we have cats there are always dust bunnies under the furniture and the roomba goes right under the couch and sofa! No more moving furniture to vacuum! There is a sheduler so you run the roomba when you are not home. It even returns to the charger by itself. The maintenance on the roomba is simply but we usually have to clean it every time we use it. The rollers come off very easily and the compartment that collects all the dirt/dust is easy to remove. There is a filter that has to be replaced every...

It's embarrassing how much these lil roombas pick up.  I still dump the dustbin and filter out once a week.    I've owned my first one for over a year.  Warranty great  (I got mine wet which is bad for electronics.... and they just sent me a new one).  I got the second so I wouldn't have to keep running the other up the stairs twice a week.  It is so cool to come home a nice clean house and not have to ever worry about inviting ppl in at anytime....my place is groomed and neat.  I schedule mine to run every day (I do have two dogs) and she even pushes the dog toys into a pile while vaccuming!...

I recently purchased the Roomba Model 560.  What a unique little gadget.  It's actually alot larger than I expected, I purchased online.  It works great though, I was very surprised at how well it picked up even near the furniture and in semi-cluttered areas.  I would recommend this to anyone with a packed schedule or pets.  The best thing about this model versus the other lower models is you can program a schedule to tell the roomba exactly when to vacuum.  It is very simple and easy to use right out of the box.

In my 30 something years of using vacuums, this is the best. Once you learn how to clean it out, this vacuum works great. No bending to make sure you get under the bed. Just let it do its job. It moves easily over rugs and onto hardwood floors to ceramic tile. Hardwood floors keep there shine and rugs get super clean. Just sit and watch it work.
