iRobot Scooba Review & Giveaway (ended)

I’m going to take a stab at it and assume most of you don’t ENJOY cleaning your floors, right?
I have a lot of ceramic tile in my house and with 4 people and 2-3 dogs, my floors get dirty every day. I do a good job keeping it vacuumed, but mopping…..yeah, that’s not my favorite. Since I don’t have small kids crawling I don’t mop as often as I used to. Mopping is NOT fun!
I was super excited with the people at iRobot asked me if I’d like to give the new Scooba 390 a spin!……..ummmm a Robot that will clean my floors for me?! you don’t even have to ask! Send her over!
What IS the iRobot Scooba?
iRobot Scooba is a floor cleaning robot that uses iAdapt™ Responsive Cleaning Technology to ensure that the Scooba washes every part of your floor multiple times. It gets into areas you can’t easily reach, including under and around furniture, washing until the job is complete. iRobot Scooba uses a four stage cleaning system to simultaneously prep, wash, scrub and squeegee floors with the touch of a button. Unlike using a bucket of cleaning water and a mop, Scooba always washes with clean water, there’s no deposit of dirt while cleaning.
iRobt Scooba 390 features
- New Extended Life Power Management delivers longer battery life than previous models. One battery charge will cover 850 square feet and run for about 45 minutes. Ideal for homes with larger areas.
- Cleans sealed hardwood, tile and linoleum floors.
- No Pre-Sweeping required.
- Four-stage cleaning removes up to 98% of common household bacteria* and uses only fresh solution from start to finish.
- Autonomous cleaning pattern covers each area of floor an average of 5 times
- Scooba 390 cleans with tap water, water and vinegar or Scooba Hard Floor Cleaner.
- Sensors allow the Scooba 390 to avoid stairs and ledges
- Cleans beneath cabinet edges, tables, chairs and other hard-to-reach places.
- Cliff sensor technology keeps Scooba from falling down stairs and other drop-offs.
- Virtual Wall® technology keeps Scooba in the rooms you want to clean and out of those you don’t.
I made a little video showing you first hand how easy it is to use.
I show you how easy it is to set up to use, you get to see it in action in my home (there’s even a short clip of Cullen checking it out lol), then I show you how good of a job it did and how to clean it up when it’s finished cleaning your floors!
So cool right?
This would make a GREAT Mother’s Day gift! You could WIN ONE for Mom or your self!
The great people at iRobot would like to take the work out of cleaning floors for one lucky TidyMom reader!

I have almost exclusively tile and hardwood floors, so we’re constantly sweeping! I have various Swiffer gadgets, primarily use the sweeper & wetjet, but I often don’t feel like it’s really getting the floors clean.
I use a norwex mop… but would LOVE this!!! thanks for the opportunity!

My downstairs is all hard surface flooring. I have sealed satillo tile in my kitchen/breakfast room/den area, and it is so difficult to clean properly. PLEASE pick me for the iRobot Scooba 390!!
I have laminate floors and hate the upkeep! i sweep all too often, vacuum when I think about it, and agonize about all those dust bunnies!
I put a bit of pine sol in a warm water and mop with an old fashioned mop. It’s back braking! We have three kids with asthma so we have a ton of tile and hardwood instead of carpet. The iRobot would be a God send!
To clean my floors I use a steam mop and a swifter wet jet on the hardwoods and in the kitchen I use a mop and bucket and I scrub till I can’t any more

I mop with my Swiffer. It’s not exactly my ideal!! I would love to have the Scooba do it for me!!! ; )
Having 4300 sq. ft. Washing my hardwood floors is worse then doing the mounds of dishes that I intend to create. This would be a life savor for me to win.

Clean Floors YES this would do the trick.
I use a Shark steam mop to clean our tile downstairs. It works well, but I still find that I don’t drag it out to use as often as I should. I would L-O-V-E to win this handy-dandy gadget!!
We have ceramic tile throughout our house AND 2 cats and a dog! We are forever sweeping, dustmopping, and mopping the floors. This would make a wonderful gift to our family! Thanks for the chance to win!

Old school Southern style: on my hands and knees with Old English. 🙂
I use a Swiffer WetJet. It doesn’t get them completely clean. Sometimes I have to get on my hands and knees with a bucket and Mr. Clean.
I use steamer and/or sponge mop. Would love this.
I use the Swiffer WetJet. I am not satisfied with it. So every now and then I have to get on my knees with a bucket of Mr. Clean. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

Currently I sweep and then end up moving dirt around the floor with a mop ( white tile floors = yuck).
Thank you for the giveaway!
“Love” you on Facebook!
I have a disabled mother and carpet is very hard for her to walk on and on occasion maneuver her wheelchair , so my house is pretty much covered in tile floors…….. Which I hate to mop!! The iRobot is something my mom could do and anything that helps her feel useful I love to try. I am a big fan of tidymom and iROBOT!!
