So far,so good. The first couple of times that I used the Scooba, it worked great, but then it started getting temperamental. The first cleaning sequence goes smoothly, and when it is tells you to empty the dirty tank, it is a gamble if it will finish the second sequence. Sometimes it will start right up again, but usually it just keeps beeping. Maybe it will finish it later in the day or maybe the next day.

I have 3 Roombas and thought I would try the Scooba. With a demanding job and being a full-time student, I love the convenience. The first few times I used it, the Scooba was everything I expected it to be. My floor never looked better. Then it stopped working - less than a week past the HSN 30-day return period. .
iRobot customer support was awesome! They worked with me to resolve the issue - first by sending a new battery, which did not fix the problem, and then by exchanging the Scooba. It took a little time to get the problem sorted out, however I was extremely impressed by iRobot's commitment to customer satisfaction. I would highly recommend any iRobot product.

It cleans the entire floor except the corners. With one push of the clean button it dries the floor. I have my Roomba and Scooba going will I'm getting a third job done or running errands. It worked better than I expected.
I had one problem with the "I'm stuck" light coming on so I emailed customer support. They responded with instructions which actually worked!. They were also ready to fix it under the warranty if I continued to have problems.
All I need now is the robot to clean the garage floor!

My heart goes out to all the people who have had a bad experiance - I LOVE my sccoba!! It save me so much time and with 3 kids and a full time job, I had just about given up on having clean floors. It's the greatest investion in decades. This must be how people felt when teh washing machine was invented!!

I am NOT SATISFIED with a product that has NO POWER; and I am EXTREMELY NOT SATISFIED with the way HSN is resolving the issue. HSN is telling me, their paying customer to do their job of following up with the manufacturer, when clearly, within this week, the product should still be in fact NEW and in good, working condition. Is this a RETURN from another user?
My friends are asking how the SCOOBA I bought from HSN is. Now how do I answer that question? It is a $200++ non-working piece lying on my kitchen floor, thanks to HSN?

Effectively cleans my wood and tile floors. No puddling on grout. Can get under furniture and gets very close to baseboards and table legs. Vinegar provides a streak-free shine and freshens the air as well. Can climb onto low carpeting so a barrier or virtual wall is advised. Obviously can't get into very tight areas, but these very small areas and corners are easily wiped up after the majority of the job is completed by Scooba. Cleans up easily afterwards. I do use Scooba after I vacuum the floor with Roomba (love it too) to keep the Scooba brushes cleaner.

I love, love, love this product. HSN shipped it a week BEFORE the estimated delivery date. It arrived with all parts and in excellent working condition. I thought it was broken but I had forgotten to remove the sticker on the bottom that says "REMOVE BEFORE USING" so once I figured that out, it was great! Cleaned my kitchen floor better than me! I am so excited; this product will really change my life! This is a very smart little robot! I need to name him; he really is a part of the family now!

I was skeptical at first; but, after using the robot on my ceramic tile floors, I am a believer! What a great product. (I have the Roomba Vacuum at a home in Florida, as well as a pool robot.) This one is also great!
Thanks, HSN!

So...I was so pumped on purchasing the iRobot Scooba. Sadly, it hasn't worked out so well. First, during the first wash, it left all but 2 oz of water on the floor...with the dirt....just beautiful. Then the power cord "failed," iRobot sent me a replacement piece....uh no luck.
The good news is HSN is sending me a replacement (for free...no shipping, etc) so I am hopeful that it works.

Ordered this a while back and had to wait over 2 weeks to get a replacement...I too received a unit without a power cord??? The wait was worthwhile, I've been using this for 2 weeks now and I love love love my Scooba Dooby Doo. I have a vinyl floor which I hate to mop, and this really cleans it well. The bottle of cleaner that comes with it only lasts 4-5 cleanings, so be forwarned, you'll need more if you plan on giving it a workout the first week or you'll run out. You can also use white vinegar, but your house will smell like easter eggs for a bit while it dries...the clorox solution smells much better! Highly recommended for busy working moms like myself who work full time and just don't have the energy to mop the floor after the important things like dinner, homework and baths are done. Now Scooba cleans my floors while I am at work so I come home to a nice clean floor!

I received the Scooba, and immediatly charged the battery as directed, and then was able to use it the next day. At first I thought it was really handy, however, there were a number of times I had to help it out because it got stuck, and to me I could'nt see how it was stuck because it was just a trim piece on the floor that was in the way. The actual cleaning was very good. It did a great job. I followed the directions with charging, and where I decided that this was'nt going to work for me was when I put it on the kitchen floor, and it got thru 3 of the cycles, and then the power went off, and so I had to dry the floor. There should have been no reason for the charge not to hold thru the entire cycle, so I did decide to send it back, because it was'nt going to help me out if I had to keep watching it. Sorry. I would give it 3 stars

i was surprised to read how many poeple too didn't receive the charger with their scoobas. after all the returning and waiting to get my scooba, i unfortunately have to return it because i have hand made mexican tile, and because no two tiles are the same thickness, my floor is very uneven and the scooba kept getting stuck. i do, however, LOVE my roomba! maybe a more adaptable scooba is in the works?

The Scooba works great. It does a very good job cleaning the floors. It is much larger than I thought it would be & cleaned a larger area than I thought it would. It is easy to use & easy to clean.

I used this 3 times and was having a lot of fun watching it mop my floors for me. I thought I was going to love this little machine until I pulled it out to use it again and it wouldnt work. It kept saying to call service. It was 31 days from the time I bought it so I called HSN and I am returning it. I didnt get another one beacue of the price. Im afraid if it breaks beyond the 30 days I will be stuck. I think I will just mop my floors.

I tried the Scooba today and love it as much as the Roomba. I did initially have a problem with not receiving the electrical cord so I couldn't charge it and use it initially. Had to wait a few weeks.
But now that I have the part and it is charged- LOVE IT! I have a large area of ceramic tile & this is the best. It washes the floor so I can do other things. It got stuck a few times but other than that - no issues. I will also be purchasing additional virtual walls to keep it in the right room. With an open floor plan, you want to control where it is cleaning. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT!

After owning 2 roombas, we decided to give the scooba a chance. The honeymoon continues. It's like having a housekeeper. We have 2 dogs & lots of sand that gets tracked in. I love clean floors and scooba mops my kitchen & bathrooms everyday. My house has never been cleaner. No, maybe they don't clean as well as I might but I sure wouldn't mop daily.
I agree with another reviewer that cleaning after each use is best & only takes about 2-3 minutes. Love it & so worth the price of my "cleaning service." Scoobie Do!
