no it's not better but it does have it's advantages and a few features the Roomba doesn't have (and of course also some shortcomings compared to the Roomba).
But the important thing is - Roomba is hell of expensive and this one isn't (cost me just a little over a 100 Euros). Whereas the Roombas mostly still cost close to a 1000 dollars and sometimes even more.
1000 dollars a roomba?? the 610 series only costs a little over 550 dollars and you can still buy older versions of roomba if you want. I have a 530 Romba spent al little aver 350 euros(bought it from store) but it works like a charm. You can't expect to get the same quality for less.
they do everything that the irobot 560 can do plus it has a uv bacteria light on the bottom, scent enhancer(put in your favorite scent in the extra compartment and it spreads that on the ground),and it runs quiter than the irobot roombas ever could which means cleaning at night while you sleep. i have one and a 580 and the 580 is so loud compared to the qq2 ivo
with the exception of the UV light that sounds pretty good. UV is just some new selling trend. The UV isn't in one spot long enough to actually do anything in this case, so it is really just a hype selling point.
I should like to thank for for corecting me on thinking it was a roomba knockoff. After looking into it more I see that they both have their pros and cons. Some things the cleanmate is better with like hard wood and running quieter and less maintainence; whereas the roomba shines on certain other areas. Thinking I may use this company in the future.
Roomba is antiquated (10+ year old) technology.

I guess it will run around $300-$400. Let's wait and see.

I haven't seen one on ebay yet. Let's hope they will be in soon by Chrismass. This will definitely get the iRobot Roombas on their knees crying.
