iRobot 560 Roomba Review by Darren Brylewski

 

My Overall Rating: 4.5star

Available on Amazon.com for $332.49

irobot 560 roombaThe iRobot 560 Roomba is one of the latest innovations in robotic vacuuming. With advanced technology that enables it to read a rooms dimensions and create “virtual walls” within its memory, its ability to effectively clean a room thoroughly is phenomenal. It also operates automatically, so you could be tucked in bed sleeping away while it’s roaming around vacuuming up for you (note: it operates fairly quietly). Sounds a bit creepy but its great waking up to a clean home.

The Good:

  • Completely automated vacuuming – you can schedule it.
  • Finds dirt that you wouldn’t
  • Reduces the level of dust in the house
  • It cleans up, then goes back to its dock to recharge

This robotic vacuum cleaner is currently on sale with a 26% discount on Amazon.com

The Bad:

  • Cords can be a pain, so you will need to move them out of the way before the little critter goes to work.

This vacuum is for:

  • Those who lead busy lives
  • People who have pets that leave fur everywhere (I have a husky so this is a gods send)
  • Last but not least, people that hate vacuuming.

Here are some of the features:

  • Automatically vacuums your house
  • Bag less system with a fine-filtration system that collects and traps allergens
  • built-in cliff sensors to prevent it from falling down stairs
  • Automatically recharges itself at its dock.
  • Weights 13 lbs
  • 1 year warranty

The Bottom Line:

So is the iRobot 560 Roomba a waste of money? Not at all, if you want a vacuum that cleans the house for you, this one would definitely be worth considering.

If you want to buy this robotic vacuum, I highly recommend you buy it through Amazon here. You won’t find a better price anywhere else!

ACTUAL USER FEEDBACK:

Lisa Shea,

“I highly, highly recommend you get one of these. It has saved me hours of tedious vacuuming. It’s much easier to breath in the house because there is far less dust. After several months of operation it has never faulted and continues to clean as if it’s brand new”Paraphrased for size – Read original here
