although this question is a few days too late... we just ordered a roomba 560 from HSN.com, and am curioius about how reliable they are when put into a daily use work cycle on hardwood floors.
Our dog is a 130 pound great pyrenees and sheds a lot, and it gets exhausting trying to keep up with the "cody puffs" that float around on the floor. Upright vacs tend to blow them around, our dustbuster battery is dying after several months of daily use, so the roomba has been a last resort to keep the fur under control.
Is a daily work cycle too much for the roomba to handle? We got an extended warranty on it, but I expect we'll be replacing the battery and corner brushes fairly frequently.
My wife's parents have hardwood floors, and a Roomba. They love it.

Assault and Battery is a collection of highlights from the group's recordings between 1988 and 1993. Although there are some good moments on the record, much of it is simply average thrash, with the later material suggesting that the group has run out of energy and ideas. Still, it's a good way to pick up the best material from some of their lesser albums. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Roomba 580 - removing the battery tab
i am looking a spare battery for iRobot roomba 4905.?

Roomba Virtual How do I take apart the Roomba Virtual Wall?
I don't see any screws or places where I could pry it apart. Sooo how do I get into this?
One of mine broke apart and I found out that under each of the rubber feet is a screw. I think you have to really grab the feet with pliers to get them out -- and that will probably ruin them.
I ended up duct taping the top to the bottom -- and the tape matches the color! :^)

A woman looking for the man of her dreams turns to a computer with unexpected results in the British comedy Virtual Sexuality. Justine (Laura Fraser) is 17 year old and a virgin, a situation she's none too happy about. She has her eye on Alex (Kieran O'Brien), one of her classmates, and has been plotting a seduction following the advice of her friends Fran (Marcelle Duprey) and Chas (Luke de Lacey). However, when Alex breaks their date to go out with Hoover (Natasha Bell), Justine is crushed; to take her mind off this turn of events, she goes to a computer show with Chas. Justine notices a virtual-reality makeover machine on display, and after toying with her own image for a while uses the computer to design her ideal man. Something goes wrong with the hall's power supply, and the computer explodes. The dust settles to reveal Jake (Rupert Penry-Jones), who looks like the man Justine was designing -- except he's wearing her clothes and thinks he's her. Justine eventually returns and is introduced to Jake; she finds she likes him quite a bit, not realizing he's merely a manifestation of her own personality. However, Jake also has also attracted the attention of her nemesis Hoover. Virtual Sexuality was based on a novel by British author Chloe Rayban. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Roomba - Ignoring virtual wall
The light on my virtual wall for my Roomba Red is blinking, how can I get it to stop?
I already changed the batteries, but it is still blinking? Any ideas what might be wrong?
It is probably just a malfunction. I have an air purifier that won't stop blinking after it told me to change filters.
Do you have an owners manual that has a trouble shooting page.
roombas What causes the "deadly circle dance" on Roombas?
I bought a Roomba on ebay that worked beautifully for 1 month. Then it croaked. The warranty is not transferable. It's only 2 years old! Irobot wants $95 plus shipping to refurbish it. I did research on these vacuums, but didn't realize there were no stores to take them to get them fixed. Help!!!
P.S. Was buying it on ebay my first mistake?
It sounds like your Roomba has a sensor failure of some kind, or one wheel is stuck. Try cleaning the wheels and making sure they turn properly. If the wheels are OK, then it must think it's either bumping into something continuously, or about to fall off an edge continuously (because the sensor isn't working) Go to this page to do diagnostics:
Battery Roomba New iRobot Roomba 4210 Discovery battery won't charge!?
The iRobot is about two years old and I replaced the battery. This is the second new battery I purchased (new not referb.). They come charged and I run the Roomba until it dies and then put it back on the base. After that the power light flashes red without ever recharging.
