iRobot Scooba experience

[ktee]

well I didn't find a pig but noticed that the filter was full, blocked up. I wonder how roomba detects that hehe.. Thanks for the info though, let u know if i do find a pig one day

I think it has a dirt detector or yours have the bin full detector. Roomba works by sensors.

Ha, probably a toy pig! I did find one tiny toy pig inside the roomba! Lol, talking from sexperience leh!

My wife juz called me and said she received the 3 boxes. She was wondering what was inside the biggest box which weight the lighest (the other 2 are easy to identify as they are irobot boxes). I told her it is the chicken feather brush. She ! She thou i ordered a blonde bride from america!

Oh, one block-mate who stays at 5th floor of my block also received an irobot, according to my wife. Dont know who is it leh, any bro here?

[dunno98]

I've seen that before selling in toa payoh few years back for S$10. Basically its works like a magic mop, put a tissue at the bottom at let it randomly move around. Guess instead of buying a roomba you could buy 20 of these and let it run

 

[dankoo]

Really ah? I saw in the NTUC mag pricing is $60 leh...
