Roomba is NOW truly the time saver that it was always supposed to be.,
We have had pretty much every generation of Roomba since they first came out. In my opinion, the 500 series that came out a few years ago was a dramatic improvement over all the previous generations, and was the first model that had a modular design that allowed for easy cleaning, servicing, and parts replacement of the robot. It’s ease of use and performance was a tremendous improvement over the Discovery and other series of Roombas.
Not long ago, Roomba made the AeroVac available as an accessory on the 500 series and came out with a new improved brush system on the 700 series. I bought an AeroVac for my 560 and found the improvement to be remarkable. The improved brush system was not available as an accessory (as far as know), so I wasn’t able to experience that improvement until now.
The 600 series (including the one on this page), takes the incredible performance of the 500 series and adds the AeroVac and the new brush system. Both are a huge improvement, especially the new brush system. Between long human hair and pet fur, we used to have a terrible time cleaning the brushes on our 500 series Roomba. That huge issue has pretty much gone away.
Roomba is NOW truly the time saver that it was always supposed to be. The 500 series, especially without the AeroVac, sometimes had so much hair and fur tangled in the brushes that I often wondered if the time and effort removing it was better or worse than just using a traditional vacuum and not having to deal with Roomba’s brushes. With that problem solved, there is no longer a downside to Roomba.
I highly recommend you invest in this robot. The time you save because of it will certainly warrant its cost.
You may notice that I have posted this review both on the Model 650 and the Model 630 pages. This is because I was provided both Roombas from the Vine program, and have found them to be identical except for the fact that the 650 can be scheduled to run automatically, 7 times a week, and the 630 cannot. That is the only difference between the two models.

|Love it…wish I hadn’t waited so long to get one.,
I don’t have to vacuum anymore and my floors have never been so clean. I scheduled it to run every day. It is amazing how much dust and other debris this thing picks up. All it takes is a 5 minute clean up of the Roomba each day-dump the bin, shake out the filter and clean the 2 rollers. It runs just over an hour before going back to base to charge. I have a large house, I run it in the main living area each day, and I move it manually to other parts of my house about 2x a month. My father bought one instanty after seeing how well mine cleaned-he is very critical of everything, but has no complaints about his 650. My 3 year old daughter & I named it Rico-she loves watching daddy’s “robot” run around the house. It is much quieter than a conventional vacuum-I can watch TV while it runs, but I schedule it to run after I leave in the morning.
A couple of tips:
Vacuum one time yourself before setting this thing loose-it makes a world of difference in the performance.
Pick up blankets and things that you would normally get off the floor to vacuum.
Confine it it to 2 or 3 rooms at a time.
Make sure you clean the bin and rollers after each run.
Run it as often as possible-schedule it for every day.
Clean it once a month by blowing everything out an air compressor.
Kick back with cold one and enjoy your new found free time…
Update 7/2013-Still running Rico every day except on the weekend, battery life is still good. The vacuum is still cleaning very well, I replaced the side brush once and I swap the filter while I’m cleaning the other one. I don’t clean it as often but at least 2 times a week, I do empty the bin and shake out the filter after every run. I’m still very pleased with the peformance. I’m still amazed at how much dust this thing collects. We’ve had a baby since the first review and I’m very happy that the floor he crawls around on is vacuumed every day-gives me great piece of mind since everything he picks up goes straight to his mouth.
