 iRobot 5800 Scooba Floor-Washing Robot August 22, 2008
It's a wonderful way to make mopping without human's efforts.
The good time for using of the Scooba is then we are going out from the home.
It has a good navigation and cleans more time in the especial dirt places.
But I got it with relative weak battery, and it took a lot of time to recharge the battery.
 A longer perspective: After one year, thumbs down for Scooba August 15, 2008

I loathe and despise mopping. Not only that, it makes my lower back hurt.
So I was excited to buy the Scooba, about a year ago, from a company that offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Here's what I've found over the year.
At first, I loved the Scooba, and it worked well. But then I didn't use it for several months -- not intentionally, but sometimes when things aren't working you just sort of let them go.
When I thought about why I wasn't using my Scooba, here's what I came up with: Scooba doesn't clean the corners, and it takes a long time for me to clean the Scooba, after it cleans the floor. When the Scooba was new, it was very clean and worked well. Now, the Scooba seems to not work as well because it's dirty. I do clean it between uses, but it's not squeaky clean. It leaves dirt streaks and little wet piles of dog hair behind on my floor. Maybe it would work better if I cleaned it more. But, how long do you want to spend cleaning the inside of your mop? Battery management is finicky. And my Scooba seems to have lost its ability to realize that it's done. It does not seem to go into "shut down" mode in which it cleans the tanks and insides and then beeps "done." Instead, my year-old Scooba will just keep mopping and mopping forever until it runs out of juice - even in a small room like my 6'x 8' bathroom. As my Scooba gets older it also seems to have a harder time with the modest irregularities in my floor. In short, I have to think way too much about this robot. Scooba is too much management and too much work.
I'm going back to an old-fashioned mop. Simple. Fairly effective. No battery issues. Easy to clean. I've had it with babying Scooba.
 Used it once and had to send it back August 7, 2008

I charged the Scooba per manual instructions and put it use on 1 floor. When it finished the battery needed to be charged again and when I tried to charge it I got the message that it could not charge the battery. I called IRobot support and they said to send the unit back in and it would be replaced under the warranty. I sent it in almost 2 weeks ago, but haven't heard from them since.
 Really Works!!! July 30, 2008

Great product, used it as soon as I charged it up, I haven't mopped a floor since. Strongly recommended for linoleum or wood floors. Picks up crumbs and dirt very well. Very pleased.
 Opening and Batteries July 19, 2008

The battery life is inadequate and opening the unit is counter intuitive. My wife had lots of problems opening the unit because you push the handle down to lift it up. It's a really stupid design on the handle. It works once you understand it, but there's no instructions on how it works.
