My favorite machine
on November 16, 2014

from Palm Springs, CA
We have a 1200 square foot condo in the Palm Springs area that has a tile floor. The desert can be very dusty and we have tried Swifters, steamers and nothing comes close to the job that our Scooba does. We add a little vinegar to the Sccoba water and the tile floor comes out spectacular!
Pros: Cleans Great, Convenient, Efficient
I would recommend this to a friend!

GREAT IMPROVEMENT

I really like all of the new improvements. I like that it is the same rounded size as the roomba, easier to clean the brushes etc. Easier to fill,and sturdier handle. I live alone and this new scooba does a great job of keeping all of my floors spotless. Glad to see they've changed the cleaning fluid. I highly recommend this new and improved model
Pros: Cleans Much Better Than T, Really Leaves Floor Dry
Cons: NONE
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not as good as I'd hoped

I have owned this machine for about 4 months. I have a Brazilian Koa wood floor and a porcelain tile kitchen floor adjoining it. I simply cannot get this floor to come clean. The machine leaves a haze over it and does not get it clean. I go over it with a steam cleaner and lots more grime comes off. I really wanted this to work as I have a dog and two cats. I wish I'd bought the vacuum. I also have a Mint robot and this does a better job.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Spectacular...really is!

I've just purchased the new Scooba and what an amazing robot. I had one of the original Scoobas from a number of year ago, and this one runs rings around it. I was somewhat skeptical that it would really clean the floor, but I can say that it does an amazing job and is very easy to use. We have a large area of travertine tile, and the Scooba picked up an amazing amount of sludge and dirt. Great product.
Pros: Effective, Not too loud, Speedy
I would recommend this to a friend!

It Does The Hard Work

The Scooba 450 is easy to use and clean. It does the heavy lifting of keeping our holiday home clean and scrubbed. I'd prefer if it had a scheduler like the Roomba vacuum. That way, I'd have it clean at night while everyone is sleeping. Overall, I highly recommend it.

Scooba 450

It is a great vac if no water is used. If used to scrub don't bother by the time you spend recharging, cleaning the unit, and repositioning it in areas not cleaned well, be better off paying someone to mop by floors or just buy a good hand mop.
Pros: Cleans Well In Small Area, Good Vac Bad Cleaner
Cons: Battery life is horrible, Cleaning The Unitgross, Clogs often, Have To Recharge Often
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Scooba 450

I never review products but I'm writing this review to tell you that this is a good product. I hesitated for a long time before buying the floor mopping robot due to the price. Due to health reasons I just can't mop the basement floor any more. After my son left for college I finally had to find a new way to get the floor clean so I choked down the price. I've had the robot for several months now. I LOVE IT!! Yes, the price was painful but now that time has passed I only see the helpfulness of the product. It's not the maid we all dream of. You still have to sweep the floor. You still have to move furniture. BUT THEN YOU JUST TURN IT ON AND WALK AWAY. The really hard work, mopping, is magically taken care of. You do have to mop the floor in sections, but I find that a good thing. I don't have to lift and flip chairs onto tables; I can just move chairs to the other section. I sometimes use the moved furniture to make barriers to divide the floor into sections. I recommend that you place the Lighthouse thing in plain view so that you don't forget to turn it off after mopping. This machine is a big, big help to me. It's easy to use, easy to clean. Well-designed.
Pros: Easy, Helpful
Cons: Battery Charging Speed, Have To Work In Sections, Short Battery Life
I would recommend this to a friend!
