Vacuuming was a chore that we all dreaded while growing up, but now there is a solution, iRobot 530 Vacuum Cleaning Robot. It efficiently vacuums dirt, debris, pet hair, dust allergens and more from carpets and hard floors. The counter rotating Bristle Brush and Beater Brush work together like a dustpan and broom. The iRobot is a powerful vacuum that sucks large and small debris into the large, bag-less bin. It cleans the whole floor, under and around furniture, into corners and along wall edges. There is also a Spot Clean feature, which provides quick clean up of spills and concentrated messes.

| 8 of 8 people found the following review helpful  It really works, but gets stuck along the way, By This review is from: iRobot Roomba Vacuum Cleaning Robot (Kitchen) I think my Roomba really helps me keep my 525-square-foot apartment clean in a variety of ways, and it actually does clean the carpet well. It's not perfect, but I almost feel like vacuuming is not a chore that I have to deal with anymore, which makes it worth the $100 I spent on it used. Would I buy it again? Under $200, yeah. Over $200 or have a bigger apartment? I'd wait for a better model.The good: It cleans my apartment. Whenever I use my Roomba, I find about two cups full of cat hair and litter that it's pulled out of the carpet and off the linoleum. Even if I vacuum twice in one day, it'll still get that out. Which is pretty good. I have nice clean lines in my carpet (even if they are zig zags instead of parallel lines), and the floor feels "crunchy" when I walk on it afterward, as though the carpet is not as compressed as it was before. It's easy. You only have to press one button, but you'll probably end up sitting to watch it and positioning...

Mint sweeps and mops hard surface floors automatically, using popular dry and pre-moistened disposable cleaning cloths or re-usable microfiber cleaning cloths (included). Dry sweeping mode is ideal for picking up dust, dirt and hair. And Mint's special mopping motion gets deeper dirt and grime off your floors. Guided by the North Star Navigation System, Mint tracks where it cleans so it doesn't miss a spot. Mint starts by cleaning open areas, moving methodically back and forth across the floor. Mint detects and cleans around furniture and other obstacles as it encounters them. Mint then follows with a perimeter sweep along the edges of furniture and baseboards, then returns to where it started and parks itself. Smart sensors help Mint avoid area rugs and raised carpet transitions, detect areas that are too low to enter and avoid falling down stairs.

Got it three days ago and after running it a few times I have yet to see a dog hair tumbleweed on my hardwood floors! All I have to do is pick up the rugs, turn the thing on and let it go. It Swiffer sweeps my floors and they look great! I plan on running this once a day to stay on top of things. I only wish the mopping feature worked better. My hardwood area is too large, and the Mint is so thorough, the pads dry out before it even does a fourth of the floor. It's faster for me to just mop myself. A+ for Swiffer sweeping C- on mopping.As for buying Refurbished I am very impressed. The packaging was just like retail... As a matter of fact, the packaging was very similar to the type of packaging I expect from an Apple product (my benchmark for packages). Nice packaging like this always impresses me as it shows thought was put into all aspects of the product. The Mint itself looked brand new. If there were not a tiny sticker on the box... Read more |
