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.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Roomba iRobot 560 Review
iRobot 560 Roomba Vacuuming Robot, Black and Silver

There's ALOT to love about the New Roomba 560 model. It has a lcd clock near the clean button where you can actually set the date/time you would like for the roomba to start cleaning without you having to do anything but create a scheduled time prior to cleaning. The battery life seems to last very well until it needs recharging.

The Roomba I had prior to the new 560 was the white one, the Discovery. (the battery since ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - best thing for a lazy person like me!
after getting this vacuum i now finally have a reason to keep my floors clear of clutter, so this baby can do all the work for me. it picks up an amazing amount of cat hair (i have two cats with pretty long fur). and it gets around all the corners and finds its way back to the charger with ease. Roombas have definately improved since they have come out and with this model it really shows. would definately get more roombas in the future



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Something for nothing
I think we all wish for technology to get to the point it frees us from some of the daily drudgery we face. This little robot appeared to do just that and truth is it does and it doesn't. It does scoot around the floor and pick up dirt, hair, dust and dirt. But it also demands constant attention to empty its tiny little dust collector, clean its rotating brushes, wipe its little sensors, and direct it back to its charging station. Not sure, but I think I spend about as much time catering to this ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - 2nd Roomba- love it, but is it built to last???
This is my 2nd Roomba, my first one died months after the 1 year warranty expired. And while I love my new one, I'll be getting nervous when my 560 reaches its 1st birthday. Lots of moving parts here and these wonderful little machines do break down. I always took great care of my Roomba and cleaned the brushes after each use, and will continue doing so with my new one. IRobot also does not offer extended warranties with their products- I think they know reliability is questionable too.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Roomba 560 is Great
I was given a Roomba 560 for xmas and just love it. I showed it to my cousin and she asked me to order one for her. I did so and she just loves her roomba too. I also have the dirt dog and a roomba 530. The only thing is that they do not dust the furniture but they are great for vacuuming the floors in the house, basement and garage. They really do well under the bed, since it is hard to get under the bed with a regular sweeper. I would get them anytime.
