    Tea Party Crashes Occupy Wall Street Protest, Finally Brings Press To Event

    novenator Up until now, there has been virtually no press coverage for the event. Just a smattering on some news outlets, with a little more coverage on liberal news outlets such as MSNBC and Current. However in recent days, a group of five Tea Party members have set up a lawn chairs directly across the street from the Wall Street protesters, so that they can protest “this liberal agenda of shutting down capitalism.” Since arriving on the scene, news trucks from around the world have focused their attention on this protest of the protest by these few Tea Party Patriots.

You should also pick up large debris that will not fit under the Scooba or could jam up the robot's inner workings. The Scooba ships with one “virtual wall,” a device that emits an infrared beam that the Scooba will not cross.

There is no auto-on sensors and hence has to be manually activated. There is a setting that allows you to set your wall length ranging from 0-3ft, 4-7ft and more than 8ft - naturally the longer the wall the more battery draining they are.The downside of these otherwise useful features VW is that it does not auto activate unlike the LHs and are always on until switched off.

    Good for permanent placement

    This is a good product, but not quite what I was expecting. I thought these would be rubberized so they would easily grip the floor, but in fact you have to use the (provided) adhesive tape. This means these are only good for one time permanent placement, whereas I was hoping to be able to move them around as necessary.They do work quite well, though, at keeping the Roomba away from places I don't want it to go. 3/5 E.

    Works well with Roomba 560

    They work well with my Roomba 560. I don't even bother to glue them down. I store them with my virtual walls and just place them in front of something delicate I don't want the Roomba to run into (such as my PC). They are a nice complement to the virtual walls. 5/5 Adam Helberg (Tustin, CA United States) - See all my reviews, October 24, 2009

    Good idea, but does not work too well

    This is a good idea, but unfortunately the product does not work too well. Two problems I've seen:- Unreliable blocking. Sometimes the strip stops Roomba, sometimes not. Also sometimes Roomba gets stuck over the strip - if I understand correctly, roomba is thinking that this is a cliff and is stopping to avoid falling.- The strip attaches to the floor using double-sided sticky tape. Unfortunately the tape does not hold well, and can easily separate when Roomba runs over it. Also the tape tends to stick to the hardwood floor and leaves marks.Overall I would not recommend this product - better use standard virtual wall, or just block access with an obstacle. 1/5 Tony - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    New Roomba vs. Old

    If you are new to Roomba, you will wonder if it is worthwhile. The answer is clearly YES, since anything it cleans is that much less for you to clean. However, which is better, the old (and cheaper) Roomba, or the new models like the 530?First, the 530 comes with the charging/base station, and this is very useful. I have placed this in the entranceway which leads into the livingroom, the kitchen or the bedroom. Using the virtual walls (included), I block off rooms so that it can only do the entranceway + 1 other room. I simply press the "Clean" button, and it backs itself off the charging stand and then spends the next 2 hours cleaning, finally returning to the charging stand. Nice!Should you upgrade from an older model Roomba (I now use my old Roomba upstairs)? It depends on your situation. By-the-way, the old virtual walls do NOT work with the new Roomba.New Roomba:Fall down stairs? NeverClimb onto thick throw rugs... 4/5 D. C.

Performance varies on throw rugs (it's great on rug/carpet surfaces themselves, but Roomba can get caught up as it travels over edges of throw rugs that don't have much weight or cling).

    A Great Product Made Even Better

    With two dogs in the house we could not live without our Roomba. The 530 is a vast improvement from earlier models. It seems to pick up more dirt, the battery life is longer, the fast-charge is about 33% more rapid than its Discovery predecessors and it is generally more quiet.The new sensors that prevent the robot from "speed-bumping" into furniture are a very nice touch, but beware if the robot is in a tight area, it may appear sluggish -- the sensors are working to continually slow it down. It's a feature I like, but need to get used to.My only concern with this robot is the high cost of parts. The bot itself is cheaper than earlier models but the components most prone to breakage or wear-out are twice the cost so the lifetime operation costs may be higher. Replacement batteries are nearly $100. Earlier models were $50.ONE MONTH LATER ....This is a slight amend to my review above.

    OK, not great vacuum

    I've used the Roomba 610 and 560. I now have two refurbished 560s in our house, at the same price as one 610. And it's definitely a better value.Before I talk about the 610, let me share what's good and bad about Roombas in general, based on my experience with both the 560s and 610:Pros:- You don't have to vacuum, the Roomba does it for you- Scheduled cleanings so you don't even have to worry about it or be home to hear the noise- Floors stay clean without much effort- One button start it and forget about itCons:- Absolute pain in the butt to clean these things. There's the two brushes, the front wheel, the spinning brush (which requires a screwdriver to remove), and the dust bin. All of these must be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled, at least once per cleaning session.- It's not effort free. As I said above, lots to clean, which requires 5-10 minutes each time you want to run the Roomba.- With pets,... 3/5 Roopesh Sheth (San Diego, CA USA) - See all my reviews, November 29, 2009

    Great for light upkeep, excellent customer service

    We have five pets. Three elderly long haired cats and two large short haired dogs. We recently upgraded to a new home with a cream colored carpet and a mix of tile and linoleum in an open floor plan. What was I thinking? I was thinking I had three days to pick a house for a relocation is what I was thinking! But I digress. The carpet isn't perfect, it's five years old and the previous owners were pet owners too, but I was determined to keep it in good shape.I held out for the professional model despite the difference in price. I figured we had a professional level of hair here. Between one cat whose fur has the texture of cotton candy, another cat whose main hobby is tearing paper apart bit by bit, and the dogs with their rolling around on the floor I needed something that could stand up to the mess.

    This thing is great!

    I got the professional series because I have a family of professional grade mess makers (kids, husband, pets, etc.). I love it! I think when people are dissatisfied with it they do not understand what it is and what it is not. It won't clean up an already neglected floor.

It handles the cat fur and it even found an earring I lost over a year ago that must of been hiding someplace. The best part is it can get under things my vacuum never could reach.

    Nowhere near as effective as the stock filters

    I own two Roomba 560's and purchased these filters about a month ago. They pick up much less dust then the stock filters do. I use an air compressor to blow the dust from my filters every 2-3 days, and the difference between the stock and HEPA filters is remarkable. I get a sizeable "dust cloud" when I blow out the stock filters and a barely noticeable dust cloud when I blow out the HEPA filter.I also agree with "Katherine of Amazon" that there's way to much "viral marketing" for this product. 1/5 anonymous (FL USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

    hard to say

    First, I don't see how this thing could be a real HEPA compliant filter. My other HEPA filters are as thick as my whole Roomba and this thing's less than 1 cm thick.My Roomba 530 Pet Series (I think that's right. It's a white one) definitely picks up less big stuff with these filters than it does with its iRobot AeroVac bin. I say this b/c it took a few runs to get some crushed leaves off the floor by the front door. That would make sense if Roomba has to force air through a more restrictive filter, which should be what this is. I hope that it's picking up more tiny particles and keeping them out of the air as the trade off. It hasn't been enough to noticeably help my wife's allergies though and I've been running the Roomba 2-3 times a day for about a month now. (there's also 2 HEPA filters going, an air ionizer, and the house HVAC unit his its fan pulling air through its filter 24/7 too)My attitude is that this is worth a shot. So far it hasn't yielded... 3/5 C. Burton - See all my reviews, August 30, 2010

    As notes in title, mine works just fine! I have cleaned plastic before applying and bumpers with alcohol, and it is holding for few weeks now. I am hoping to be the case after a while, since I have two iRobots one for each floor.Only complaint is that front bumper is potential interference problem width a charger.

    Great but not perfect ***Downgraded Star Rating***

    My wife and I decided to get one of these because our 8 month old son is about to start crawling. While we try and keep our floors clean, our beagle has other thoughts as she sheds all over the place. We went with the latest 560 model as it has just about everything we would want with a product like this. It works as advertised and we will definitley keep it but there are some areas that need improvement. Here is a quick breakdown of the pros and consPros1. Quieter than a standard vaccuum2. Seems to learn the room dimensions quickly. The virtual walls and lighthouse feature are very nice.3. Is "smart" enough to avoid getting tangled in our area rugs4. Obviously easy to use as it is just a push of a button (or even better when you program it)5. Can use everyday to keep the floors spotless6. Have successfully used it on hard wood, vinyl, carpet and (accidently) concrete7. Cleans under... 4/5 M. Kelley "mpkelley20" (Boston, MA United States) - See all my reviews, September 16, 2007

    A Worthy Successor to the Roomba Line

    We have two Roombas plus a Scooba in our house. When one of the batteries on one of our Roombas finally reached the end of its life cycle, we decided to donate that Roomba to a friend and to get ourselves the new top of the line - the Roomba 560. We got this right when it first came out, but we waited several months before posting a review. It's pretty much impossible to review one of these Roombas after only a few days! It takes weeks if not months to start to see how well they last over time, and what breaks down. Believe me - been there, done that.So now it's many months later, and I have to say, we are quite pleased with the improvements of this Roomba over the previous generations of Roombas. So first, for those who don't even have ANY Roomba yet (hard to believe!). Roombas are awesome. We have cats, and we work from home so we're home all day. It is AMAZING how much dirt and dust and junk collects in the carpet every single day. Who really has time to vacuum their... 5/5 Lisa Shea "medieval swordfighting enthusiast" - See all my reviews, December 12, 2007

    Beware of the "new" Roomba 560 now only for single room (updated review)

    UPDATE 12/19/2011My review in late 2007 describing the red side brush "amputee" problem and poor customer support is still the highest rated critical response on Amazon. Because of that experience, the recounting of which is in the original review appended below after this update, I had not bought an iRobot product in over four years. Now I have bought two "new" 560s, which arrived today (more about "new" below). This update is primarily for (i) previous owners of a 560 that are contemplating buying a "new" 560 or (ii) those that have information on the original 560 and mistakenly believe that this is what they will get if they order a "new" 560.If it were not for the problems discussed in this update, I would raise my rating to 3.5 stars. Once again, I think iRobot may be shooting itself in the foot. And what upsets me is that I really want to see this company succeed.By way of disclosure I have owned several of every generation of Roomba. I... 2/5 Matrixunloaded (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
