Tigershark1976 Turbocharged December 31, 2012 Share December 31, 2012 Came across some robot vacumn cleaner and wonder any MCFers use it before. The price is not cheap (min $800) and I do not want another white elephant added to my storeroom.... Pls share your experience and better still, if you have any good deal for such gadget.. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking at one of those robo-cleaner too and from research online, apparently LG roboking 3.0 and irobot romba 780 are the best right now, samsung 8895 is having good review too, so between these 3 would be my choice.

Fcw75 Hypersonic January 1, 2013 Share January 1, 2013 I have the Samsung Navibot and frankly I prefer the human with vacuum cleaner better. It does the job better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeshe Turbocharged January 1, 2013 Share January 1, 2013 Came across some robot vacumn cleaner and wonder any MCFers use it before. The price is not cheap (min $800) and I do not want another white elephant added to my storeroom.... Pls share your experience and better still, if you have any good deal for such gadget.. i think before u get the irobot vacuum cleaner, see if your cleaning area is suitable for such cleaning process. minimalist style would suit this best. if your area is messy with lotsa furniture and decorative fixtures or uneven flooring, then it may not be useful.

Ender Hypersonic January 1, 2013 Share January 1, 2013 (edited) I got my 550 from this seller. They are parallel importer, so cheaper than the official authorise seller.. Good after sales service too, wcome down settle the problem fast when i make the complaint on power supply.. Change to a higher ampere one.. http://autovacstore.com/autovacstore Anothing about the roomba, if you don't use it for a couple of weeks, use use, the battery can get completely discharge. That's when the official charger won't have the ampere rating to charge, need the more powerful one. Edited January 1, 2013 by Ender Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datura 2nd Gear January 1, 2013 Share January 1, 2013 I have the I robot for 2yr already, it's good , the biggest set back for me is that it's a pain to remove the dirt n hair that trapped in the roller, end of the day, I fel it's better to use an ordinary vacuum cleaner where you can just throw the dirt bags after few vacuuming Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
