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 hand wash my floors and I hate every minute of it. I have been wishing for something that would do that work for me.

I ususally use a Swiffer, but I don’t like the fact that I’ve heard of the liquid making dogs sick and I’ve got two little dogs with gastric issues to begin with, so I’ve been using bleach and water lately. Regardless, it’s a never-ending job!
I clean my floors with Lysol and a mop!
I clean my floors the old fashioned way – on my hands and knees!

I clean my floors by broom, vacuum, and a quick mop every day.
I have two kids (three if you count my husband), a Bernese Mt. Dog, and a kitten. It’s a constant battle to keep the floors clean. I currently vacuum my hardwood and tile floors 2 – 3 times a week and then mop with a shark steamer mop. I would love to have an iRobot Scooba to help with the mopping!

I usually make my boyfriend clean the floors, we usually swiffer, but I’m not sure about it’s effectiveness (or his cleaning abilities)!

I am disabled and from spinal cord and several others surgeries, cleaning my floors are very difficult. I’ve seen the iRobot Scooba for some time and thought how great it would be to have one.
