Roomba the Robotic Vaccum



Many people have heard of the Roomba. It is a small robotic vaccum that vacuums carpets and other types of flooring. It is developed by the IRobot company. It is small and shaped like a home bathroom scale. Like a lot of other people I have been wondering if the Roomba can actually do what the IRobot company claims that it can. I recently purchased a Roomba because I was curious about it and I needed help with vaccuming anyway. It turns out that the Roomba was in fact very effective in cleaning carpets and wood floors.

Roomba works by using dozens of sensors that detect dirt and monitor the room that the Roomba is in. When the Roomba detects dirt it adjusts and increases the intensity of the cleaning. Its sensors are also able to detect stairs and prevents it from falling down them. There are three different cleaning modes on the Roomba depending on how much you want it to clean. Roomba also remembers how a room is set-up so that it can clean quickly and efficiently. It picks up all kinds of dirt including pet hair. I have a cat with long hair and the Roomba really helps with picking up the hair that the cat sheds. It really helps save me a lot of work. The Roomba is pet friendly and it will not endanger your pet. My cat was curious at first but now just ignores it as it works.
