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 a Wet Swiffer that I use on my hardwood floors and kitchen/bathroom floors after I sweep them. I have never been a “mopper” and really don’t like to have a mop hanging from somewhere in my house. This iRobot Scooba would be awesome!!!
I clean with Swiffer but this would be soooo cool to have!
I use a steamer and it’s great but it ruined my linoleum 🙁

I have tile so I sweep and mop the floor, swiffer under furniture, and vacuum my rugs. Thanks for the chance to enter.

I clean my floors with a dust pan & broom, THEN a vacuum, & then the dust pan & broom AGAIN….I’m very particular about each piece of dirt getting OFF my floors! I think I could use the iRobot!

We have hardwoods on our first floor with twin toddlers and a 7 year hold. There are never enough hours in the day and this would be a lifesaver!
I currently use my shark stream mop to clean my floors. It’s ok

I use a mop..would love one of these, but it is out of my price range. Thanks for a chance to win!
I use the swiffer dry sweeper on my hardwood floors. It’s great at picking up the cat hair!
I use an old fashioned mop and bucket to clean my floors most of the time.

I use a swiffer with baby wipes on the bottom 🙂
I mop with white vinegar and hot water. About 1/4 cup to 1 gallon water.
Works great on our almost real hardwood. Cleans up after the dog and grandkids but is alot of work!
I use the Clorox clean cloths w/mop for my kitchen & bathroom lineoleum floors and sometimes for my dining room wood floors…it does an okay job but this iRobot would be sooo much better! 🙂 I already liked Tidy Mom and FB and just like the iRobot Roomba (hope it was the right one…?) on FB too. thanks!
I use a not so great swifter that just pushes crumbs around.
This looks like would do the trick on my hardwood ~ with 2 dogs and a hubby that does not understand the concept of removing his dirty shoes 🙁 Thanks for the opportunity of winning a iRobot 🙂 Gabriele
