iRobot Scooba Floor Washing Robot

Anyone have this?

Opinions?

I know I should have waited for feedback first, but the offer came up today on woot.com for $99.99 and I just HAD to order.

I was looking at it on woot.com also! Unfortunately can't help with feedback... but love that website.

My wife just bought a Scheduler Roomba from woot.com

Lonnie anything for you LOL

Wow that looks like a great deal, but they're out of stock now. I just looked at their web site and they have a gutter cleaning one - that looks like a great idea, I just may clean my gutters more than once every three years if I had one!

I have the scooba and roomba. They are my best friends. I love them.
The truth is if you will run them while doing other tasks, or while out of the house it is fine. You can also just swifer dust, wet jet, or vacuum in 1/4 of the time. They are fun to watch and I think a must if you have hairy dogs or cats.

<--- Has two dogs, three cats, and three boys. Not sure which makes the worst mess

Better get more LOL

My dogs and cats are fine, its the hairy kids here makin' the mess.
We have it and it works well. Not sure how long it will last but it seems well made.

I tried it and it didn't work well over here. It's in my garage, taking up space now. Our house has a pretty open layout and I think that was the problem. Maybe I should donate it to the next meeting for the auction? Are non-fish things allowed?

You need to keep them contained to one room at a time with the virtual walls otherwise itll never do a good job.

does anyone have a problem with their anmals chasing them around? i'm thinking about buying one for my mom for christmas, but i'm afraid my dog is going to chase it for 8 hours. he already isn't too fond of the vacuum cleaner.

 

[cb747]

My cats used to run from it. Now they just move out of the way Its quieter than a normal vacuum but i dont know if your dog will chase it. Depends on the dog i suppose.

you guys are to funny. spend 200 on one of those things, when you have kids around you can bribe to do it for alot less. do what my parents did with me growing up make us vacuum and clean the house.

...Or you can do the other thing Rays parents did with him. Drop him on his head and try to pry the Barbie dolls out of his hands.
