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 clean my floors by first mopping then I have to take the bucket with the mop & mop it. Then I usually vacuum over that to get any leftovers. I so want an irobot it would make my life so much easier. It’s not a necessity therefore cannot be put above the broken washer or dishwasher. So please please pick me 🙂
Mostly I vacuum my floors and mop about once a week.
Thanks for entering me in your contest!

I use Swiffer to clean my floors. It does ok. I use it mostly for convenience but I’m not satisfied with the results. Would love the iRobot Scooba!

I want this so bad. I vacuum or sweep the 900 sqft of tile then I mop and spot scrub the stubborn stuff. Icky.
Reusable mop, bleh. Once every 6 months or so, I have to scrub with baking soda to get up the grime. bleh, again.
I use a vacuum for the carpet and I use a mop on the tile floors. My dad has a Roomba and my kids fell in love with it. I would love to win one of these for them…LOL
I usually use the vacuum to get dust and dirt and then I use a swiffer-type “mop” to get the fine dust off tile and hardwood. Occasionally I’ll do a full-on mopping for better cleaning.

I really dislike mopping floors, it’s my least favorite chore of all. So, I assign it to my oldest girls. Lol. Don’t judge, it’s all in the name of teaching them life skills. 🙂

I wash the floor on my hands and knees…it’s a good workout!
