iRobot Scooba experience

[mosmos]

oh okay.... i will try to remove any hair that is visible... hehehe.... not visible one should be okay right? i damm worried it will break down on me one day... more over, it suppose to clear pet hair... it should be durable right?

i think he pointing to the 2 Main Wheel... cos the side of the wheel is totally covered...

actually all wheels must check. If can see any hair or strings, just clean off lor.

for pet model, the only difference is the brushes, the main engine still the same.

how hair can go in the gearbox leh..
i stripped my roomba few mths ago..
but gear box got no hair.. only a lot of dust..

Not true leh...each have its own function. I use Roomba everyday and Scooba 1-2 times a week...

coz you got 2 mah. if you only have Scooba, you probably just need to run it 2-3 times a week only. dun need to sweep floor liao....

Took me 3 days from the time it says package received on the website. The status will remain as package received for quite some time. Got the bill via email only after 1.5 weeks.

wah, very fast deneneneneneh.......

They got it on Monday, and today the guy was trying to deliver to my house! I forgot to ask them change to my office....now they are rearranging delivery again on Saturday damn fast! unlike vpost!!!!

the most funny thing was.....they didn't even tell you how much you need to pay and just go ahead to deliver first......for HSBC card holders....

btw, what's the drying mode for? do you guys run the drying mode right after each clean? or after you clean up all the parts liao, assemble it back liao then run the drying mode b4 keeping it on the storage mat?

I think the drying mode is for scooba to dry it's brushes after mission so that when you lift up the scooba, there won't be any dripping liquid or puddle of water under.

But i never use tis function.

i thought it's to totally dry up everything .... uhm.....

 

[thewiseone]

The drying mode is useful if u intend to use a full tank for cleaning more than 1 room/area. When u deemed that sufficient cleaning time has elapsed, just activate the drying mode to dry up the wet area. Once its done, u can pick up Scooba and get it to clean the next room/area. The dry mode has to be engaged manually unless the clean tank is fully depleted.

[sAxman_Returns]

that's interesting. Do you guys actually tabulate the time needed to clean up a particular area? coz if the battery is still going strong and the dirty tank is not full nor the clean tank is not empty, it will still go round and round right?

 

[sAxman_Returns]

hey guys, besides roombaexchange.com is there any place that sells Scooba parts at good price? I find that iRobot.com actually has better price .....
