Irobot Roomba Vacuum - The Basics

The irobot roomba vacuum was the first robotic vacuum cleaner to come on the market. It weighs about 8.82 pounds, and measures 3.63 inches high by 13.4 inches wide, by 13.4 inches deep. It comes with a rechargeable battery and a charger, as well as a Virtual Wall and Smart Sensors. A few companies have come out with knock-off versions of this product, but none work as well or look as good as this product does.

Irobot roomba vacuum is very easy to use. First make sure that the battery is fully charged. Then set up the Virtual Wall to keep your roomba in the area that you want to clean. Next place the roomba in the center of the room to be cleaned, turn it on, and press a button. This will activate the vacuum and it will start to explore the shape of the room, and start cleaning. Once the vacuum is done cleaning the area it will return to its dock and turn off.

If you have children or pets you don't have to worry about this item hurting them. The irobot roomba vacuum comes with two important safety features. First it will automatically pause its motors when it is picked up or tilted off of its horizontal axis. This prevents the spinning brushes and bars from pinching fingers, or harming pets. The second safety feature is its cliff sensing feature. This prevents the vacuum from falling down stairs.

The irobot roomba vacuum can handle just about any type of flooring. First it works the best on hard flooring types like hardwood, linoleum, and tiles. It also works well on low to medium pile carpets. This product is not designed to handle high pile or plush carpets. If you have one of these types of carpets then you will want to look for a different type of vacuum cleaner to use.

This vacuum has many superior features that make it a unique cleaning tool. In addition to its automatic cleaning abilities, its low profile also allows it to clean in hard to reach spots like under beds, under cupboard bases, and under the bathroom vanity. It also has spinning side brushes and a unique wall hugging program that will allow this cleaner to remove the debris hiding in the crevices between the wall and the floor. Finally this tool is flexible enough to automatically transition between floor types, rooms, and it can even navigate over most raised door jams.

This product is not only great for personal use, but it is also a great for gifts. If you have someone with a small apartment, with hardwood floors, with linoleum, with tile floors, or with low profile carpeting then this is a great gift to give. It is also a great gift to give to people with pets that shed hair. This product has a strong enough suction to pick up debris like pet food and dirt tracked in by pets, and its rotating brushes allows it to also pick up pet hair. Also because of this products functional design and reasonable price, this item is a good option for corporate gifts.
