It gets the job done using only clean solution so it’s not slinging dirty mop water all over your kitchen.īoth new lines hit this coming Spring with three models from the 700 series hit between $450 and $550.
iRobot says the tiny robot can hold enough cleaning solution for 150 square feet of linoleum, tile, or sealed hardwood floors while killing up to 97% of nasty bacteria.
At 3.5-inches tall and only 6.5-inches in diameter, it’s clearly part of the ninja robot squad as it can reach more places while still getting the job done. The Scooba 230 hits the floor looking a bit different than the traditional iRobot cleaning device. The physical buttons got hit by the banhammer and were replaced by a touchpad interface up top by the new Full Bin Indicator Light. The vacuuming Roomba 770 and 780 models now feature - what else, really? - more power suction, improved dust filtering and up to 50% longer battery life. Just in time for CES 2011, iRobot has taken the virtual sheet off the vacuuming Roomba 700 series and the tiny floor-washing Scooba 230 series.
The march towards robot domance keeps rolling with iRobot’s latest releases that squeezes even more sucking and scrubbing power out of every round inch of the little devices.
