iRobot Scooba experience

[croc1977]

2 day delivery for what? need to be that fast? think should be less than $500. the other time i gotten 560 + brush + filter with 25% discount promo, total about USD314. then my friend bring back, so gave him a bit more after conversion as token.

normal is how many days? and that is irobot delivery to vpost/CGW right? from US to SG how long? that should be a bigger factor than the local delivery.

my brushes never broke before, still in usable condition after several mths of uses.

just that scooba back wheels to wearoff + vacuum tube chipped off. When I bought scooba 380, there was free replenish set that include those items.

omg... mine dun come with replenish set cos not stated by Woot.... where u all get replenish set? i m very excited about this now...

 

[dankoo]

so u are saying using vpost is a better choice?

Sorry...I meant USPS seems slightly cheaper and faster.

Well for irobot cannot lor. But if you buy parts etcs or other thing from other place that offer USPS international then pls use it rather then going for vpost.

USPS, have to get someone to do it for you. I dont think they have "Vpost" similar services

iRobots are not using Lithium battery, should not have problem...

your this roomba got extra brushes + filters, so is as good as a free replenish set.

wait for woot.com for another 5xx offer, then buy as spares.

Maybe cheaper than buy accessories from irobot store.

oh okay... so all these stuff should be good enough for me to use for a period of time right?

eh... did u all try to buy from iRobot Singapore?

iRobots are not using Lithium battery, should not have problem...

lol, tell this to mosmos or myself! I managed to pull thru but afterward wont try again. ALL batteries are banned from Vpost. DONT believe the bs about lithium only.

The best alternative to buy replacement battery: Get a cheap woot roomba/scooba... Cost u us$60 more n u can hv replacement charger, brush, etc, etc even replacement robot!

i guess roomba 4xxx is quite hardy, parts will not break so soon.

No leh, never bought anything from them before.

so angry with vpost, vow to never use them again.

they will ban anything with the word battery on invoice.

vpost is getting too ex and I dont think will use vpost from now on. I think comgateway is cheaper.

As for warranty, if spoil you have to email irobot service for help if not call them but must remember never let them know you use the robot oversea else warranty void.

If they offer replacement this will be how it go. You will have to ship the robot back to irobot yourself then have them ship to vpost or comgateway and then you ship it back to SG.

kns, like that it may cost almost the same as a brand new set.....

croc kena pwn3d big big time this round.....7% GST is hell lot of $$$ menz.....can buy yourself a luxury lunch

you shouldn't have requested for that 2 days express service....get them to ship direct to SG mah...
