<b>Scooba's Four-Stage Cleaning System</b>

Scooba features a proprietary four-stage cleaning system that will simultaneously prep, wash, scrub, and dry your floor in a single pass. </p>

<b>Prep:</b> With Scooba, there's no need to sweep the floor before washing. Scooba preps your floor by picking up loose dirt and light debris, including hair, dust, and many cereals. </p>

<b>Wash:</b> Scooba then washes your floor by laying down a mixture of specially formulated Clorox Scooba cleaning solution and water. Clorox Scooba cleaning solution is safe on all sealed hard floor surfaces. And it's nontoxic, so it's safe to use around kids and pets. </p>

<b>Scrub:</b> Next, Scooba's specially designed brushes gently scrub floors, cleaning spills and removing grime. Scooba's brush spins at 1,500 revolutions per minute, scrubbing your floor more effectively than traditional mops or any other hard-floor cleaning system. </p>

<b>Dry:</b> Finally, Scooba actually dries your floor by picking up the dirty water left on the floor and depositing it into a second tank. The residue is held in the "Dirty" tank until it is emptied. So, instead of just redistributing the dirty water around your floor like standard mops do, Scooba leaves your floor cleaner, drier, and ready to walk on. </p>

<table> <tbody><tr> <td> <b>Scooba Covers the Entire Floor</b>

<img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/kitchen/detailpages/floorcare/scooba_coversfloor.jpg" align="left">Scooba thoroughly cleans floors, covering every section of the floor an average of four times. During a cleaning cycle, Scooba monitors its environment 67 times per second and adjusts its cleaning behavior for maximum coverage. Scooba uses three behaviors in every cleaning cycle, ensuring thorough cleaning of the entire area. </p>

<b>Wall Following:</b> Scooba uses this technique to clean the entire perimeter of the room and for navigating around furniture and other obstacles. </p>

<b>Room Crossing:</b> Scooba crisscrosses the room as it looks for new areas to clean, ensuring total coverage of the room. </p>

<b>Spiraling:</b> In this mode, Scooba creates a large spiral pattern to effectively cover large open areas. </p>

For best coverage and faster cleaning, iRobot recommends removing chairs and other furniture from the room you want to clean. Scooba cleans an average kitchen in about 45 minutes, covering each area of the room multiple times to thoroughly clean your floor. </p>

Over the course of a cleaning cycle, Scooba will automatically react to obstacles and maneuver its way through a variety of situations. Scooba features integrated cliff sensors that tell the robot to turn away from stairs and other drops. Scooba's non-marring bumper is gentle to furniture and other obstacles. Scooba also has infrared wall sensors that allow the robot to clean around the perimeter of the room and around obstacles. Scooba also features special escape behaviors that allow it to quickly get out from under chairs and other furniture. </p>

Scooba also comes with a Virtual Wall to contain Scooba in the area you want to clean. Simply place the Virtual Wall in a doorway and turn it on. The Virtual Wall will stay activated for the duration of Scooba's cleaning cycle. Scooba automatically turns away when it detects the Virtual Wall's invisible infrared beam so you can keep Scooba in one room or away from obstacles. </p></td> </tr> </tbody></table> </p>

<img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/kitchen/detailpages/floorcare/scooba_easyuse.jpg" align="left">Scooba is easy to use. Simply fill the "Clean" tank with Clorox Scooba cleaning solution and water. Place Scooba on the floor, press "Power" and then the "Clean" button. Scooba will clean the entire room in approximately 45 minutes. When Scooba is finished cleaning, empty the "Dirty" tank into the sink or toilet, rinse and replace the tank, and connect Scooba to the power supply to recharge its battery. </p>

Scooba is powered by a rechargeable nickel-metal hydride battery. Scooba's battery fully charges in about 3 hours and will last for almost two complete cleaning cycles. For best performance, iRobot recommends recharging the battery after every cleaning cycle. Scooba's battery is environmentally safe and will provide hundreds of cleaning cycles. </p></td> </tr> </tbody></table> </p>

<table> <tbody><tr> <td> <b>Clorox Scooba Cleaning Solution</b>

<img src="http://images.amazon.com/images/G/01/kitchen/detailpages/floorcare/scooba_clorox.jpg" align="left">iRobot has teamed with Clorox to develop a cleaning solution that is specially formulated to ensure best performance. Clorox Scooba cleaning solution is designed to be safe and effective on all sealed hard floors. The cleaning solution is safe around children and pets. </p>

iRobot recommends using only Clorox Scooba cleaning solution in Scooba. Only Clorox Scooba cleaning solution is specially formulated to enable high traction, so Scooba can move freely on most floors. The cleaning solution is also designed to produce less foam, preventing foam from building inside the robot or on your floor. Clorox Scooba cleaning solution is also non-corrosive to Scooba and its electronics.

Customer Reviews:

Love it!.......2007-06-11

I love this little guy! To sum it up, its easy to use, fun to watch, sort of pain to clean, and works like a charm in my kitchen (haven't tried it on laminate flooring yet though).

I LOVE my robot!.......2007-06-10

It arrived in good condition. It was easy to setup and get going. It does a superb job in white vinyl kitchen and laundry. Handles pet hair and small dirt easily. Simple and neat to clean and maintain. Unable to find special cleaning solution locally, but online order came in 2 days. I could not be happier. I will NEVER mop or scrub again and I have the cleanest floors ever! I LOVE my robot.

Clean floor - no effort!.......2007-06-10

If you're on the go like my wife and I, this is a product you should consider owning. Being sceptical when purchasing our Scooba, my concern was that I'd be packing this baby up and sending it back for a refund.

After following the easy set up instructions (5 minutes or less) this amazing little robot was cleaning our kitchen floor better than if I washed it with a mop. No need to even sweep the floor as we watched in awe.

This robot works so efficently, that we now set it up when leaving the house and come home to a perfectly clean floor.

cute little floor washer.......2007-06-08

This is really a great product. I bought it for my wife for Mother's Day but the whole family likes to play with it. It did leave tracks the first time we used it but I checked the wheels and determined that they had flat spots. After a quick call to I-robot (the manufacturer), they sent me a new set and it has been working perfectly ever since. It is not as loud as a vacuum cleaner but you still have to talk loud to be heard over it. We have scrubbed all the floors in our house and we love it. We have a Roomba and we do run it first so that the Scooba does not get too much dust or dirt clogged in it's little filter. We have a messy bird that throws food, poops at random spots on the floor and molts regularly. The scooba cleans all that up and leaves our floors looking clean all the time. We would definitely recommend this cute little robot for anyone who doesn't want to spend a lot of time cleaning floors but still wants them to look nice.

I love my Scooba!!!.......2007-06-08

This little gizmo works great! It does a wonderful job washing my hard floors. The only down side is that you only get a little bit of the Scooba Cleaning Solution, and I haven't been able to find any more at my local store. But you can use white vinegar, which is MUCH cheaper and works very well. What a life saver!
