Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Electrolux Trilobite Robotic Vacuum
Customer Review: Love my Trilobite verses my broken again Roomba
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought a Discovery myself to help with my asthma and only used it in my tiled kitchen/family room. A very easy floor to clean. My friends were so impressed 4 of them bought roombas and or scubas.... Well I'm sorry to say that 3 of them as well as I have had irobot replace parts and refurb machines (might I add ... we had no problem with customer service) until the warranty was up...Now they want another 100.00 for another refurb... Not getting it from me! I just bought the trilobite for $437.00 and for one it really SUCKS... not simply brushing the dirt but vacuuming it up. It is a true vacuum not a sweeper like the roomba's. And if you can afford to get real lazy you can get the Karcher RC-3000 RoboCleaner that even has a self emptying feature.Customer Review: Trilobite rocks!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Trilobite because I am a gadget kind of person and because of the possible time savings of setting it and forgeting it. I was not disappointed. This little machine cleans like a champ, but I learned to empty the dust bin after every couple of cleanings. The pickup is much better with an empty bin. It automatically adjusts from our carpet to our wood floors and it vacuums like an upright, although I can't compare it to our Kirby. We have carpets that are ~a year old and it gets down into carpet enough to vacuum up fibers along with the dirt and debris. It does seem to have a problem getting back to its base on some of our larger rooms (20x16), but does just great on our average sized ones.Customer Review: I love this thing!

I recieved the Trilobite as a gift. I love it so much I bought a second and am thinking about buying a 2.0 in the next few months. This tiny vacuum picks up all the dirt on the floor quietly, while I do something else. Senses the stairs, doesn't bang up the walls and furniture and doesn't suck up the lace that drapes on the floor (unlike someone else who used to vacuum).
As a side note if you have a sensitivity to dust you won't know how you ever got along with out it. I have a relative who has a dust allergy, she hasn't had an attack while visiting since I started using the Trilobyte.
The people at Electrolux came up with something marvelous this time around, this is worth every penny!
Customer Review: Trilobite puts Roomba to shame!
Summary: 5 Stars
I highly recommend the Electrolux Trilobite. This product is made unbelievably well. I have a Roomba, which died a few weeks ago, and could not believe how much better this vacuum is built. Also, unlike Roomba, this vacuum does not shut off half way through cleaning b/c the battery died. Trilobite goes back to its charging dock by itself and then goes back out to finish cleaning. Unlike a previous review, I have had no problem at all getting the Trilobite to vacuum my whole room (and any other rooms in the house).
I did not pay $1700 for my Trilobite, so if you can find one for cheaper (under $700), I would definitely get one- or two (they get lonely).
Customer Review: Absolute rip off, hire a maid

Bought the trilobite at a big box discount store at steep discount but the replacement filters (measuring about 2 inches by 8 inches, and not HEPA) cost a fortune, far more for a year's supply than the machine costs at full retail! Do your research before you make the same mistake I made. The filters have to be replaced every time the dust collection bin is emptied. Search the web for trilobite filters for the best price, do the math, and see for yourself. It's shameful what those tiny filters cost! Electrolux should be ashamed.
