Exactly what one would expect, plus a little more.,
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.

|Better Quality than Original Brush,
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.

|Worth it just for the brush cleaner,
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.
