“The international expansion of Scooba is evidence of the growing demand
for iRobot’s home robots,” said
Scooba Floor Washing Robots: A better way to clean.
Unlike
mops and cleaning pads, Scooba robots use only clean solution to wash
the floor, never dirty water.
All Scooba robots:
- Clean tile, linoleum and sealed hardwood floors
- Use iAdapt™ Responsive Cleaning technology to ensure effective cleaning and thorough floor coverage
- Include Virtual Wall® barriers that keep the robot in the room to be cleaned
- Avoid cliffs and drop-offs
- Clean with Scooba Hard Floor Cleaner
Scooba 390: The premiere floor washing robot for larger rooms keeps
getting better.
The new iRobot Scooba 390 includes the most
advanced technology and latest features of the Scooba 300 series,
including a simplified design and Extended Power Life Management for 30
percent longer battery life. Using a four-stage cleaning process, Scooba
390 preps, washes, scrubs and squeegees the floor to get rid of dirt and
bacteria. There’s no sweeping required! Scooba 390 covers up to 450
square feet per cleaning.
Scooba 230: The world’s most compact floor washing robot goes on sale
in more countries.
The innovative Scooba 230 was developed to
meet the need for a robot that cleans tight, hard-to-reach spaces in
bathrooms and kitchens, including around the toilet and under cabinets.
At 3.5 inches tall and 6.5 inches in diameter, Scooba is ideal for
cleaning in small spaces. Scooba 230 uses an advanced active-reservoir
design to keep the cleaning solution and dirty water separate inside
such a small robot. Using a three-stage cleaning process, Scooba 230
washes, scrubs and squeegees the floor to get rid of dirt and bacteria.
The robot’s removable bottom plate makes maintenance fast and easy.
Scooba 230 covers up to 150 square feet per cleaning.
