Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Remanufactured iRobot Scooba Floor Washing Robotic Hard Surface Cleaner, Assorted Colors
Customer Review: Scooba
Summary: 3 Stars
I am reviewing irobot scooba
I am using this for a quite a while now more than 6 months, when I started liking it even though it had many drawbacks, it's not working now. Whenever I plug it in to charge it is not charging anymore but a service light is on with a sound indicating that it needs service, and to check tank, I fiddled with it I checked tank and cleaned up everything and cleaned the brush, air filter, but for no use, unfortunately I am out of warranty so I cannot send it for repair or exchange it now.
Pros: clever cleaner, it really cleans the stuff, room smells good, you definitely cannot clean the place 2-3 times the way it does, easy to use.
Make sure you sweep the floor before you switch scooba on.
Cons:
1) Noise - it gets very annoying at times, you cannot watch TV or talk on phone, and you have to shout while talking to people in the same room.
2) charging time - this is the worst part, you cannot use the equipment immediately, reason- it takes whooping 16 hrs to charge every time, you can use it immediately when u leave it charging for ever, in which case you actually are keeping your battery at risk.
3) Battery life- while at use it will run for 35- 40 min which I did not think is good enough time for it to clean even though the place I live is equal to the size of two studio size apartments. In this era where very small batteries run for 6-7 hours, this huge battery does not live up to expectations. The battery which comes with the original equipment can only survive 6-8 months and then you need to buy new battery for at least 45 bucks (I am not sure if that is covered under warranty). If the battery is covered under warranty you better take the warranty and don't rely on battery life.
4) Doesn't clean the corners as can be expected from its round shape.
5) Expensive equipment - I felt it expensive home equipment for the flaws it has and the work it does.
6) Expensive liquid (why do you want to spend 10 dollars for a 946ml cleaning liquid.
7) No options or display - like you don't know how long it will run for if u wants to clean it up and leave.
8) Does not clean very hard stains on floor.
9) Very messy to clean the brush of scooba after it finishes cleaning if the hair gets in and stuck.
10) Not really a powerful machine.
This is a good machine for a start. It needs to go loooong way before it reaches perfection.
