Roomba Vacuum Cleaner

A Roomba vacuum cleaner by iRobot Corporation is a revolutionary idea in vacuum cleaning. It is a small (1 foot in diameter) robot that cleans your house for you. One of the biggest features is that you do not have to be present during the cleaning process. You can set it up on a timer to work any time during the day you like, so it can be cleaning your house while you are at work or sleeping. After it's finished, it will automatically return to the docking station to recharge, so other then cleaning out the dust bin, there's very little work for you to do.

Using a cross brushing action it easy picks up pet hair and dirt. It will also continue to work very dirty areas until they are clean. Two virtual walls are included. These allow you to designate the rooms you want cleaned and you can also prevent the vacuum cleaner from falling down stairs.

Another interesting thing about a Roomba is that it has 4 patterns in which it travels across the floor. These are as follows:

• Spiraling: It spirals in a random pattern around the room
• Wall-following: It will follow the edge of a wall or piece of furniture.
• Room crossing: It will travel in a straight line across the room.
• Dirt Detection: When a dirty area is spotted, it will spin around until the area is cleaned.

Below are some of the pros and cons of owing a Roomba:

Pros

• It includes a remote control so you can turn it on from anywhere in the house
• You can set a schedule so it will run anytime during the day that you designate. You don't even have to be home while it's cleaning your house. (It's important to note that the scheduler is sold separately)
• The home base charges the vacuum as will as keeps it out of the way
• Ports are included for attaching supporting hardware
• Size: it's small enough to fit under most furniture (couches, beds, ect)

Cons

• Not recommended for cleaning shag carpets with tassels
• Dust catcher is a bit small
• Noisy
