Tools and Hardware Reviews of iRobot Scooba Floor Washing Robotic Hard Surface Cleaner
Customer Review: 5900 Scooba Floor
Summary: 5 Stars
As many Californias, we have tiled floor in the bath, kitchen and dining rooms. We cut the iRobot loose and the job is done. Covers most areas, most of the time. Now and then, we empty and fill the unit for a second cleaning. I plan to continue to get on my hands and knees for serious cleaning of nooks and crannies, but the twice a week clean up is much easier with the iRobot. Now, we are watching for an industrial model of the iRobot for cleaning our patio [yes, I still scrub the patio by hand]. The iRobot Scooba is not a toy. It is a home cleaning tool. We cannot comment on the longevity of the unit, but the manufacturer currently offers replacement parts, as needed. I would not put this item on credit, however if you have decretionary funds around, the iRobot is a reasonable purchase. We happen to be fortunate to have less time than money.Customer Review: Lives up to it's claim

I bought the Roomba Discovery and was so impressed with it that I went to the web site to see what other products were offered. I purchased the Scooba 5900 and just received it yesterday. I put it to work last night and I was totally impressed. The product lived up to it's claim. I had read several complaints about how it leaves water on the floor. In my opinion, there was no more water left on the floor than what would have been there if I had used the mop myself. You do have to take a rag and clean along the edges, but in the grand scheme of things, this is not a huge task. The bottom line is that I love it! Instead of saving the cleaning for the weekend, I can get it done during the week. Last night the Roomba was going in my living room, the Scooba was cleaning my kitchen floor and I was out in my garden doing what I love doing the most!Customer Review: Efficient and Time-saving

From my prior use of the Hoover upright floor machine I expected Scooba to leave small pools of water in the grout of my Kitchen & Dining Rm. floors. It didn't! iRobot's team designed a winner w/their first floor washing machine! Scooba is very easy to use, and to clean up after use--top priority for me as I own 3 Roombas, too.
To anyone who has a problem w/this machine, my experiences w/their customer service have been a pleasure. So, DO call them. They will diagnose the problem, and if need be they'll replace it free of all charges. They really care about satisfying their customers-a dying virtue w/many companies. Most importantly, Do Read and Follow their Instructions Exactly as Outlined. There are reasons for every instructional step they list. (No, I do not work for them..just a very, satisfied customer:)
Customer Review: I LOVE IT

I moved from a totally carpeted house to a tile floor expecting that it would be maintainence free. I was soooo wrong. I feel the sand all the time and mopping is such a chore. I was mopping every day. I bought this scooba and just turn it loose. I have to turn the TV up louder but I can definately watch it over the noise. It is not that loud and the job it does is spectacular. I am going to buy another one and set them both to work on different ends of the house. The floor looks and feel clean and there is very little effort involved in using it. It beeps you empty the dirty water put in clean and the soulution and wash the filter and brush and you are good to go again. I use it three times before it needs a charge. I would recommend this to everyone with tile floors!!! A must have. Can't live without mine!!!Customer Review: Life quality improvement

This is a great product to do an icky chore! BEWARE! It did get stuck under the lower kitchen cabinet doors the very first time I used it and I had to practically break it to get it unstuck. I went to my local lumber yard and had sticks cut that block the Scooba from going too far under the cupboards now so it doesn't get stuck. The Roomba has a similar problem under some cupboards so these sticks do double duty. As you see I have both the Roomba and the Scooba. I have textured vinyl floor (looks like ceramic tile) with little teeny pits that the Scooba cleans real well. I first did a major floor cleaning before using the Scooba and the Scooba has been doing it ever since for four months now. I use a swab to wipe under the cabinets where the Scooba can't get and corners. No big deal.
