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 use my shark steamer mop after I use my dyson vacuum. I would have a hard time living without them.
Of course I like you on facebook
Regular old fashioned mop and broom 🙂
When I was my floors I use a shark steam mop and it DOES not work at all. If I have extra time, which is never with three children under eight and a puppy, I use pinesol and water with a sponge mop. My floors need HELP.
I have a dyson that I have to run almost daily after kids playing outside!

I use a good old sponge mop, but don’t really like it.

We use a stick vacuum to get up the dust bunnies and dirt and then do the mopping with a Swiffer Wet Jet at the moment. I would love to have on of these handy dandy things. 🙂

I have iRoomba and love him so much I named him Roger! I have even posted it on facebook that I love him and am “in a Relationship” with him. What woman doesn’t love someone that cleans her floors for her! I have white ceramic tile throughout my house, so cleaning the floor is chronic. I have been dying to get iScooba, but my budget hasn’t allowed for it!

Right now I use a shark steam mop, but with 2 kids and a dog living in the dry, dusty desert I never mop as often as I would like (which would be everyday to keep the dust to a minimum)

I clean my floors with a microfiber mop, some cleaner and elbow grease 😉 . Would love to try this iRobot!
I clean my floors with Murphy soap and water. I follow you in Facebook.
I clean my floors with old fashioned sweat and muscle! (sweep and mop) It’s the closest thing to a work out that I get! I use an upright vacuum cleaner for the carpets but cuss it every time I have to empty that stupid canisiter. 🙂 So, I’d much prefer a iRobot Scooba instead!
I spray my tile floors with Pledge and then scrub them by hand on my hands and knees. I wiould love a better way to clean them!
I like both on Facebook!

I use an old fashioned mop and bucket with lots of scrubbing to clean my floors.
I clean my floors with a Hoover floormate. And when in a hurry I use swiffer dry and wet cloths. I would LOVE to have this robot clean my floors while I’m at work:)
Ha… My floors so rarely get the cleaning they deserve! But when they do, it’s a vinegar, rubbing alcohol, water combo.
