Provided is a robot cleaner, and more particularly to a robot cleaner which detest whether a foreign material storage unit is separated. The robot cleaner includes a main body including a suction motor, a foreign material storage unit separably disposed within the main body, the foreign material storage unit storing foreign materials contained in sucked air, a foreign material cover for selectively shielding one side of the foreign material storage unit, and a detection unit for detecting whether the foreign material cover is opened.
