Irobot the valcum cleaner????

[roset]

Big Lots is having this on sale for $95, it's the valcum cleaner that cleans by itself. I wonder if this is worth the money, I haven't cleaned under my beds or dressers in a long time. Anyone have this? I have seen this on those home shopping channels.

Re: Irobot the valcum cleaner????

I got one at the after Tgiving sale and love it. Mine is an older version but worth the little money I paid for it. There are many varieties now so you may want to go on their website to make sure it's the one you want. Some of the varieties include additional attachments such as the robot will find it's way back to the charger and another additional would be the wall barriers which will not let the irobot go into certain sections if that's where you place your barrier. You can buy the basic and then add these later or you can buy it all together at once. And then they make one for pets. Mine isn't the pet one and I don't see how it would work if I did have a pet that shed a lot. The cleaners are so small so therefore the compartment is small.


I wanted to add that at one time I heard that Big Lots electronics are refurbished. If this is true and it's not a must have right now I would wait until the day after Thanksgiving sale. I know it's early but I'm already making my list, lol.

I have one and love it! It came with the invisible barriers that you can put up. I like to use it, so I can be doing other things.

I also have a Scuba that mops the floors.

My family bought me a Roomba for Christmas. It is a special one for pet hair. It also has the virtual wall thing. I love it. I do swifter the corners and then let it loose. Of course it really confuses the cats and dogs.

Chop,
Sign up on their Web site. They send you all their sales items. When my DH bought mine he recieved the garage one free. My DH and DD did not think it would work so Christmas day we are all watching Molly (named after the Jetsons Maid) and they were pleasantly surprised.
I'd like to try the Scooba but am afraid to use it on my hardwood floors.

I love mine. I bought it at Sears for $350.00 so if it is $95.00 I would think it was refurbished. I just wish I could teach it to clean toilets. lol

Re: Irobot the valcum cleaner????

I googled irobot and found out they even have one to clean gutters. I don't have gutters living in Az. but was suprised. I am going to wait til buy it. I really just want it for under the beds & underdressers or tables. Refurbish doesn't scare me, I got a dyson valcum refurbish had it over 4yrs and use it alot. Also got something else refurbished from amazon and no problem. Just going to wait & see. Glad to find out people that have it love it so that is a good sign.
