This set isn't cheap, but it's worth it. I've got a Roomba 565, which I usually love, but the amount of cleaning the device itself requires is sometimes frustrating. 'Course, if I didn't have 4 cats, it might be less... ;) This set helps releve that frustration somewhat. This set comes with 3 filters that are basically identical to what came with the Roomba itself, plus one of the little spinning brushes that helps pull stuff out from corners and the wall (interestingly, with only 3 brushes to it instead of the 5 or 6 the original had), plus a beater bar and brush set. But the real gem here is the little red plastic brush cleaner. I don't know if this ships with the newer Roombas or not, but it should - this little thing is great. What you do with it is run the large brush through it and it strips all the fur, string, threads, etc. that get caught in the brush out and allows them to be thrown away all in one clump. No more picking all that stuff out of the brush by hand! Faster, better, and easier. Additionally, the brushes seem to be a better quality and do a slightly better job than the set that came with the Roomba - I'd imagine the folks at iRobot are always making design tweaks to things and it shows. iRobot 82401 Roomba R3 500 Series Replacement-Brush and Filters Kit
The brush in this kit was of better design than the original brush that came with my 500 series Roomba. It is a bit easier to clean and it seems as though not as much hair gets wrapped around the axle pin. It also feels as though the construction is more solid on this brush. I'll order this again.
Do I "love" new Roomba brushes? Not really, but this kit made my Roomba perform almost like new. In fact, the brush seems much better designed than the original. The original had a pair of plastic plates and the rotating knob on the end that would fall off during cleaning, and broke. I fixed them a few times, and then decided to buy this kit. The new parts are much better.
We ordered this for our older 500 series, and the brushes actually fit better than the original brushes it came with. Amazon's service was great too. Everything made it, and our roomba is back to cleaning our place for us!
I have had difficulty with thsi replacement pack as the brush is slightly larger than the original brush and it causes the roomba to stop constantly for cleaning and aligning. now it will not go over my low rugs as it did in the past.oh well guess I have to buy a new roomba.You think they planned it this way?
A little pricey, but brings new life to cleaning the carpets. I have hard wood with a few carpets that collect dog hair. I have a golden and the stiffer bristles really help to pick up the dust bunnies.
Great kit for a great price. I've had my Roomba for about 8 months and the original brushes wore out quick. The pin on the end of one of the brushes came out and I've been messing with it ever since. This kit was just what I needed. It's nice to finally have a brush that works right again and from what I can tell is much beefier than the factory brush that came with the Roomba
The brush cleaner works great. Everything else is just what it seems. I was surprised to see that my new higher end Roomba comes with many of these things. This kit was a good addition to my 400 series roomba though.
The new design brushes and sweeper piece really improved my Roomba's ability to pick up debris. I previously had the "red" brushes and the 5-prong sweeper, and they picked up a lot less than these newer designs. - Roomba - Replacement Parts - Roomba 560 - Filters'
