    And his wee cousin, Scooba.

    Both are running wild in my house.

    If you are a neat freak, it doesnt replace your Swiffer, Mob or cleaning person.

    For me it works wonders, Rooma vaccums one room, then scooba wipes it.

    I general the scooba is not as solidly made as the roomba, and requires a lot more cleaning, which is to be expected as you need to fill it with water and dump the dirty water out.

    My floors are clean enough for me, and clean enough for visitors to be surprised, but I didnt set the bar very high to begin with.

    Now I just need to get it to nag and refuse to wear lingerie and its a proper girlfriend 2.0

    ^am hardly a neat freak. My mom came to visit recently and was very impressed. My cleaning person is amazing, but not in my non-existent budget right now. Roomba is my main man now (and he doesn't nag me either. Plus, he's smart enough to know when it's best to just STFU)
