It's perfect if you have small children that try to pick up things off the floor and eat them because their's nothing left after the robot's finished and it will find things you thought you lost and push them out from under the couch or bed or whatever!
Pros: Children love it, Cleans Effectively, Cleans Under Furniture, Covers Entire Room, Deep Cleaning Ability, Doesn't scare pets, Finds thingsbrings them, Goes to home base, Hassle Free Operation, Long Run Time, Very QUIET
Cons: Does Not Clean Stairs, Frequent Maintenance
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best. Pet. Ever.

We love Norm! He runs around cleaning like a dutiful pet with way more skills, and I spend a few moments pretending to be a lady of leisure before, guilt-ridden, I get up and join the cleaning spree. We named him Norm because of our ecstatic reaction to him merely re-entering a room..."NORM!" (Any "Cheers" fans out there?). We have a dog who sheds a moderate amount, and so I do have to clean Norm's brushes frequently, but I figure if I let him clean regularly enough, I won't be cleaning the brush as often. He does get stuck under one piece of furniture, but I find it rather charming..."Norm, I TOLD you not to go under there!"
Pros: Cleans Effectively, Cleans Under Furniture, Covers Entire Room, Deep Cleaning Ability, Large Debris Bin, Long Run Time, Pet Friendly

I got my roomba for christmas. I thought is was so no one else would have to sweep.The first one was a 400 series that didn't pick up well. We exchanged it for a 530 and I love it. We use it everyday. It doesn't seem to run as long as advertised before recharging. It seems to work best if you confine it to 1 room at a time.Great on hardwood floors!I clean it after each use. An airduster,Hemostats and a dog comb work well for cleaning.I really haven't had any major issues yet and would reccommend it.
Pros: Cleans Effectively, Cleans Under Furniture, Covers Entire Room, Hassle Free Operation, Large Debris Bin, Pet Friendly
Cons: Can Get Stuck, Loses Charge Quickly

I love her!

I bought Shirley after talking to a co-worker who has a red roomba, and loves it. She has one cat. I work with a cat rescue group, am a foster home and currently have 24 cats and kittens living in my house. I was somewhat skeptical, but I hate to vacuum, so I figured, 30 day trial, what do I have to lose? I love Shirley! I have old carpeting in my house, and it even looks 100% better! After 2 weeks, she is still picking up lots of hair - I set her loose every day, and I do have to clean the brushes frequently, but I expected that, so I'm not disappointed. I'm sure that will improve over time. The cats were a little leery at first, but now they just jump over and around her while she's doing her thing. I love the fact the I can sit on the couch and watch TV at normal volume while she's running around the room. The only problem I have is she doesn't seem to run the advertised time on a charge. I'm seriously thinking about buying another one, so they can work together. The Scooba looks interesting, but probably not worth the price, as I have very little linoleum floor to clean. I've told all my friends in our humane society that they really need to get one!

I absolutely love Spot! He's happy when I use him, and sings a little song each and every time. Who ever knew life could be so fun? I vacuum every day, especially the kitchen. Now, if crumbs get on the floor while cooking, who cares.... I know Spot will take care of it!

I got it on Christmas. Didn't believe it actually can do the job and should say I was surprised. I have a cat and a dog and it cleans all the hair. Does not matter on carpet or hardwood. Pros: After you start it you don't need to think about it anymore Cleans nicely and recharge itself My most curious dog does not even care about it! Simple and good documentation Cons: The main problem I found with it is side brush. After a week I already lost half of them. Retailers does not have any of parts in stock, so I was dissapointed.
