Brookstone Review for iRobot® Roomba® 530 Vacuuming Robot sku # 581595

Just press the Clean button! The iRobot® Roomba® 530 vacuuming robot cleans more rooms, more effectively. Longer battery life allows it to clean up to 3 rooms on a single charge, and it cleans them better than ever with redesigned brushes and a stronger vacuum. Roomba® navigates wirelessly under and around furniture, along walls and in corners, automatically adjusting from carpets to hard floors, carefully avoiding hazards like stairs and drop-offs. Anti-tangle technology prevents it from getting stuck on power cords, carpet fringe and other loose fibers. A larger air filter captures more allergens, and a larger debris bin keeps the dirt, dust and pet hair where it belongs. When the battery’s low or cleaning is complete, Roomba® 530 will return automatically to its charging base to dock and recharge. This smart, efficient vacuuming robot will save you time and effort, while keeping your home wonderfully clean—it’s time you got one!

I live in a dusty apartment so my Roomba gets frequent use. It's funny and a bit noisy as it chases some of my guests around (they love it) - I don't mind the noise. I have plans to get the scuba in the next year.

My first Roomba had some battery problems, but this white one I got from Brookstones, I've had no problems with yet. You do have to Roomba proof your room (no floor clutter). It will get stuck and you'll have to rescue it here and there, but still best for a dusty city apartment.

I recently replaced all my rugs with hardwood and tile. This is the absolute best value I've purchased. Picks up dog hair better than a traditional vacuum and tells me when it needs to be emptied before going back to docking station. Besides it's very entertaining to watch while drinking a cup of coffee!

It works great right out of the box. Just charge it up and let it go. It picks up things you didn't even know were there. Note: Keep the brush bearings and filter clean because it picks up a lot of stuff.

I love my Roomba! I just set that little thing to go and it makes quick work of a floor. I use it mainly as a maintence type product. When I am cleaning the rest of the house, I let it work on a portion of my floors. Works great on carpet as well as my hardwood floors.

Review for iRobot® Looj Robot Gutter Cleaning Robot
The iRobot® Looj cleans up to 80 feet of gutter in minutes, not hours—it’s the easiest way to keep gutters free-flowing all year round! Gutter cleaning is a dirty, unpleasant job. You have to repeatedly climb and move ladders, and reach from dangerous heights. But no more! Now you can do it all by remote control with the amazing new Looj robot gutter cleaner from iRobot®. At just 2 1/4" tall, Looj propels itself easily under gutter straps and over downspout holes. Its three-stage, high-velocity auger breaks up clogs, lifting out leaves, pine needles and other wet or dry debris while brushing gutters clean. Wireless remote control has a 75-ft. range, moves the Looj forwards and backwards, and changes the rotational direction of the auger to ensure complete debris removal. Looj attaches to an included belt clip to free up your hands and make it easier for you to climb a ladder. Uses a high power, rechargeable battery pack (included). Remote uses two AAA batteries (not included).
