iRobot Roomba 560 Robotic Vacuum

The device can be a huge benefit to certain types of people/room styles. It pretty much does what is advertised but it should be remembered that it is a "brush" device only, not a vacuum cleaner. It is great on carpet and solid floor surface material, but forget it for pet hairs etc. On new carpets, the traditional new carpet fluff is a problem as you continually have to empty the smallish dirt box. It occassionally gets stalled and unable to get out of acute angles depending where your furniture is. The manufacturers tell you to not leave cables lying across floors (Where shall I put them?) as it can try and pick them up on its travels and yank your phone/lamp/etc off a table, as I discovered on a moment of forgetfulness. Still I give it 8/10.
