There is a new iRobot Roomba on the block. It’s the 532 Pet Series Roomba. As the name would imply, the pet series robot vacuum cleaners are for pet owners. So people with cats and dogs, and the kinds of uniquely canine and feline messes. Cat food, kitty litter, dust bunnies made of hair. Short hair, long hair, and sticky hair. The nice thing with the robot is that you can vacuum every day and keep on top of it. Most obviously, they are designed to pick up pet hair and also the allergens that pet owners face. The iRobot Roomba 562 is designed to clean up to four regular-sized rooms before it needs to charge. Like all other Roombas, it can get into hard-to-reach areas. It comes with two virtual lighthouses and two cleaning bins which can be used in place of one another. One of the bins is a vacuuming bin. The other is a high capacity sweeper bin. As the name would suggest, the high-capacity bin is for heavy duty cleaning in especially hairy areas. Here are some of the features of the Roomba 562 robot vacuum cleaner:

• Comes with two virtual wall lighthouses
• Rechargeable Battery
• Self-Charging Home Base
• Two Brush Cleaning Tools
• Extra Set of Brushes
• Vacuuming Debris Bin
• Sweeping Bin is High Capacity
• Two Extra Filters
• Has three Cleaning Modes
• Covered by a Two Year Warranty
• 3 Hour Charge Power Supply

The Roomba 562 is one of the iRobot robot vacuum cleaners that is able to charge itself in three hours (the charge time for most of the others is seven.)
