Product Description
Life happens in busy homes, and keeping up with accumulating dirt, dust, pet hair, crumbs, and debris can be a daily challenge. Introducing the iRobot Roomba 560- a member of iRobot’s newest generation of Roomba Vacuuming Robots.

Now there’s a better way to maintain cleaner floors every day. With dramatically improved navigation, cleaning coverage, vacuum pickup, particle filtration, and scheduling capabilities, the Roomba 560 picks up amazing amounts of dirt and debris from your floors with the touch of a button--so you don’t have to.

The Roomba 560 even cleans on schedule when it’s most convenient for you. Use the on-board scheduling system to easily program up to seven days and times per week for Roomba to vacuum--whether you’re at home or on the go. The Roomba 560 also offers the most efficient room-to-room cleaning available using two innovative, new Virtual Wall Lighthouses.

With dramatically improved navigation, cleaning coverage, vacuum pickup, and particle filtration, the Roomba 560 vacuuming robot picks up amazing amounts of dirt and debris with the simple touch of a button. The powerful unit features innovative spinning side brushes that grab dirt and dust from corners and along wall edges, as well as two high-speed, counter-rotating brushes that pick up pet hair, cat litter, food crumbs, and other debris from floors. The vacuum sucks up the debris and deposits it into a large, easy-to-empty bagless dustbin, and its improved fine-filtration system traps dust, pollen, and other allergens inside the unit, reducing infiltration into the living environment.

2 out of 5 stars Not worth it..   August 30, 2008
I bought this new iRobot Roomba 560 for my Mom, and besides some initial smiles due to it's automatic moves, turn backs after collision and all, nothing seems to be good about this Product.
1). First of all, forget about all the obstacles like tables, chairs, sofas - Even in a completely empty, flat floored rectangular room also it doesn't clean all the spots. It misses them. This is due to its weird moving algorithm I guess.

2). Then, it cannot always return to its charging dock automatically as it claims. The second time we used it, its battery got empty in its path to the dock. (It should calculate how much time it will take to reach to the dock and start moving there beforehand)

3). Third, the third time we used it, it stopped moving and started rotating at a single location!!!! I don't know how did that happen, but the machine was rendered useless as a result.

4). I have placed a request for the return and refund two times on the website, but no one has come to collect that :( ... Although, the customer care was good enough to assure me that they would schedule a USPS pickup to collect that soon and even if the 30 day window closes due to this, I would receive a full refund. I'm waiting for that now. :)



5 out of 5 stars As good as such things are likely to be.   August 30, 2008
This is our first Roomba, and it probably won't be our last. With a wooden-floored house and several sheddy cats, we were always struggling to keep up with the fur and dander. We've been very happy with the way our Roomba has changed that. It's hard to imagine ways that it could be better designed. We expect it's going to last a long time, or at least until another generation from iRobot improves sufficiently on it.


5 out of 5 stars Roomba 560 Review   August 25, 2008
We all like the product at our home. My wife and I run the Roomba daily. Our dog and cat are amused.

How much easier can it get? Is there a robot that dusts?



2 out of 5 stars Breaks constantly!   August 24, 2008
We bought the Roomba 560 in January '08. So far (in 7 months), we have had 3 of the internal brushed replaced. The side brush also broke, but we have not been able to get a replacement because they are back ordered (most likely because they break for most people all the time). Then, we had a problem where it wouldn't clean, just spun in a circle and gave us an error message. After being told it was the left wheel module, we waited a month to get the replacement part. Then, I called. Come to find out, they decided we needed a whole new unit, but never contacted us (they had my e-mail). So, in 7 months, many accessories have broken, and the whole unit has now broken! We had to send our whole thing back in and are now waiting for a new unit. Be careful investing in this product. It is often out of commission for us, so does not serve its purpose.


5 out of 5 stars My Mom loves it   August 22, 2008
It's a Christmas gift for my Mom and she really loves it. The machine saves a lot of time and very simple for my Mom to operate. Definitely, it is not perfect but I still give 5 stars based on my Mom's satisfaction. Few things I would like to see in the future Roomba models:

- Reduce noise level: I cant sleep if Roomba is operating.
- Side bush should be more robust. One finger of side bush was broken after 1 month use.
