Strikingly modern and easy to use, this robotic floorvac includes an array of convenient features. Simply press the "clean" button and the unit will vacuum the whole floor, adjusting automatically to any floor surface including wood, tile linoleum, and low-to-medium pile carpet. The vacuum's artificial intelligence determines the room size and adjusts the run time to ensure that it cleans the entire floor. Integrated sensors detect dirt and will increase the focus and intensity of cleaning in that area, while infra-red cliff sensors in the non-marring bumper detect stairs to keep the unit from falling, as well as furniture and walls for cleaning right up to the edge.
The high-efficiency vacuum has a wide cleaning path and a three-stage cleaning system, which includes counter-rotating brushes that scoop large debris into the dustbin, plus a vacuum to pick up fine particles, dirt, and pet hair. This unit has one of the highest CPRs (coverage per room) in the industry and can get floors cleaner than conventional upright vacuums with the ability to clean where they can’t, like under beds, couches, and other furniture. Its edge-cleaning spinning sidebrush, combined with wall-following technology, removes dirt and debris from the base of walls, from corners, and other hard-to-reach places. The vacuum's stasis sensor detects when it's stuck and employs pre-programmed escape routines to free itself, while setting up a virtual wall, an invisible beam of light, confines the unit to a designated area, great for one-room cleaning.
The vacuum's advanced power system consists of a fast-charging battery, a three-hour charger, and a power source--it supercharges the unit for up to 120 minutes of continuous cleaning. When the battery is low or it has completed a cleaning cycle, the vacuum automatically returns to its charging Home Base so that it will be ready for the next cleaning session. The bagless unit is designed with an easy-to-empty debris bin that is three times the size of other robotic floorvacs so it doesn't have to be emptied as often. Turning the vacuum on, selecting a cleaning mode, and sending it off to clean is easy with the included remote control. Convenient cleaning modes include MAX mode, which sets the unit to clean multiple rooms in one cleaning cycle or for 120 minutes of intense cleaning in a given room, as well as Spot mode, which sets the unit to quickly and intensely clean in a 3-foot diameter. Replaceable air filters prevent dust and dirt from escaping back into the air, and removable-by-hand brushes allow for quick, routine maintenance. A rechargeable APS battery, a three-hour charger, two "virtual-wall" units, three filters, a wall mount for convenient storage, and a remote control are included. The vacuum measures approximately 13 inches in diameter by 4 inches high and carries a one-year warranty.
From the Manufacturer
The Roomba Robotic Floorvac has changed the way people clean their homes, and it’s the number one selling robotic vacuum in the world. Now, the next generation of Roomba’s are here: the Roomba Discovery Robotic Floorvacs. The Roomba Discovery line is designed to make cleaning more efficient and easier than using a traditional upright vacuum.
Roomba Technology
The Roomba Discovery Robotic Floorvacs utilize a 3-stage cleaning system. First, the spinning side brush cleans right along the base of a wall and in corners. Second, Roomba’s two counter-rotating brushes scoop up large dirt and debris into the particle bin. Third, a powerful vacuum pick ups the remaining fine particles, dirt, and pet hair. Also, Roomba now has the built-in intelligence to automatically return to its self-charging Home Base when its battery is low or it has completed a cleaning cycle. This means your Roomba will always be charged and ready for its next cleaning mission. A Roomba vacuums most home floor surfaces including hardwood, laminate, linoleum, low-pile carpet, medium-pile carpet, tile, slate, and other hard surfaces. Roomba is not designed for shag carpet. Roomba's compact shape (it measures 3.5 inches tall and 13 inches in diameter) allows it to clean completely under beds, couches and other furniture, so Roomba cleans more of your floor than standard uprights.
Roomba’s integrated artificial intelligence allows the robot to determine the room size, and actually calculates how much time is needed to clean in a giving room.
Easy to Use and Effective Cleaning
To start with this vacuum is easy--just press the Clean button and Roomba vacuums the whole floor, moving from carpeted to hard surfaces seamlessly. Unlike standard vacuums, Roomba automatically manages uneven floor transitions up to one half inch tall as it cleans hardwood, carpet, linoleum, and tile.
Roomba can clean up to three 14- by 16-foot rooms before the Roomba Battery needs to be recharged. Roomba’s Advanced Power System uses a microprocessor-controlled charging system to provide up to 120 minutes of cleaning power (run time may vary based on cleaning surface). The Roomba Discovery re-charges in under 3 hours.
Sensors in the non-marring bumper detect furniture and walls so Roomba cleans right up to edge of the wall and around furniture. Its infra-red cliff sensors detect edges such as stairs and keeps Roomba from falling. The included Virtual Walls keep Roomba from going where you don’t want it to. These technologies allow Roomba to operate without having to move furniture or place a physical barrier to block Roomba into a room.
