Good Job Roomba

Date of Review:  Oct 25, 2008
Review: It seems iRobot has delivered on its promise of convenience. We have a dog who sheds constantly, but we simply didn't have time to vacuum as often as we'd like to keep up with all the dog hair.
Our roomba cleans about as well as most upright...

Think of it as an Industrious but High-Maintenance, Non-Cuddly Pet

Date of Review:  Feb 7, 2009
The Bottom Line: More interesting than practical.

It's the 21st century - you know you want a robot!!
Review:
It is truly enjoyable watching "Cy" (my Roomba 530) randomly scoot around the floor, sweeping up the schmutz.

He navigates across different surfaces, around, under, and alongside things with relative ease, minding the Lighthouses and then...

Is this right for you? Depends on what you can and can't live with

Date of Review:  Feb 24, 2009
The Bottom Line: This can give you more freedom with your time, but I'd get a good warranty and expect to replace parts often.
Review: Well, first of all, most of the people who buy this product are people who either don't have the time to vacuum as much as they like, are injured and can't, or just would rather spend time doing something else. Which reason you choose will make a...

it works and... is entertaining

Date of Review:  Jan 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: Definitely buy it if you have hard wood floors, funds and no time to vacuum often yourself.
Review: I had my doubts whether it works first and now I can say - yes it does.

Beware - in the beginning it will be very entertaining to watch Roomba clean so be prepared.

Now... to the practical observations - for the most part it does...

Unhappy and Returned

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2008
Review: I bought this with great enthusiasm. I am a techie myself, and was very interested in giving this product a shot to prove itself. Unfortunately it falls short for my purposes.

My primary reason for returning this item was the tangled mess...

Roomba 530 performed beyond my expectations

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2007
The Bottom Line: Thorough as a vacuum, excellent programming and navigation around tight and awkward spaces.
Review: To be honest, my expectations were not that high to begin with. I was expecting a high tech toy more than a good vacuum cleaner. I was impressed by iRobots online demonstration and the unique programming more than anything else.

What I got...

Save your money until they get the bugs worked out

Date of Review:  May 5, 2008
Review: I've owned the 530 for 3 days now. Within 20 minutes of first use, the side brush unit fell off. I reattached twice more and even changed rooms. Even in a small room with no obstacles and a hardwood floor, the side brush continued to fall off. There...

Date of Review:  Jul 14, 2009
Review: I just got a refurbished one of these and I LOVE it! I feel like a futuristic queen with my very own robot maid! I have 2 cats and got it mainly to clean up the fur left after the frequent cat fights and it works great scooping up the various piles...

iRobot Roomba my friend that sucks! In a good way.

Date of Review:  Aug 28, 2009
The Bottom Line: The time this product saves makes it worth the money and the small effort to clean it. It does a great job!
Review: I have two of these great vacuums, one for upstairs and one for downstairs. They are very reliable. The one I have for my upstairs is a scheduler and it just begins vacuuming the room on the scheduled time every day without fail and it goes right...
