This product is great, i will give 5 star if there is no problem with the battery and 'check tank' alarm....for the 'check tank' alarm still not clear even you do as per manual...suddenly the alarm clear when you apply pressure when closing the tank. for the battery is a big problem to me...right now i must buy new battery for my scooba..... from Amazon.com I am reviewing irobot scooba I am using this for a quite a while now more than 6 months, when I started liking it even though it had many drawbacks, it's not working now. from Amazon.com To say it changed our lives might be a little dramatic, but ok, it is close. We have 2600 square feet of tile, vinyl and wood floors, 3 dogs and a cat. We set our little Scooba friend lose,and voila! clean floors. from Amazon.com I am a big fan of the Roomba, so I was really excited to try the Scooba. Unfortunately, after less than 6 months of once-per-week use, the blasted thing started displaying a "Check Tank" error for no reason whatsoever. from Amazon.com It came originally with a defective battery... after replaced battery, the Scooba worked well for 7 months, when it broke. When I got in touch with customer support they explained warranty is 3 months, and suggested me to purchase a new one. from Amazon.com I was wary about spending this kind of money on something w/ so many low ratings. I took a chance on the idea that people might be operating the Scooba incorrectly or might have a singularly defective product. I'm glad I did. from Amazon.com i already own a Roomba for my carpets (I'm 75, disabled in a wheelchair with the use of only one arm,live alone and prefer it, but can't vacuum or really do floors.) Roomba easy to use, and to carry around with little inset handle. Got a Scooba (refurbished). Not so easy to use. from Amazon.com This machine cost me over $1 per day. I based that on this: I have had 2 Scooba's and ran them about once or twice a month. Both broke. from Amazon.com Whereas the product Scooba worked okay the first year I had it...the battery wore out eventhough I followed manufacturers instructions to leave it in the unit on charge when not in use. When I called for service I first got an endlessloop of "robotic" answering script. from Amazon.com After finding the roomba vacuum to be an excellent adjunct vacuum (doesn't get dirt down in carpet fibers; you still have to use a regular vacuum occasionally), I bought the Scooba for the half of my house with 12" tile floors. The machine can put down a lot of water but looses suction every time it crosses the grouted part of the floor. from Amazon.com
