Thank you! Sorry if I sound a bit "excited" there!


Thanks for the prices, really apprecaite your call. I guess the price is still "like that". But I’m still seriously considering it.

Now I guess what i’d like to know is how much will maintenance and replacement parts cost…

I’m more keen in the Scooba instead. as the scooba does sweeping and mopping?


I’m planning to order from USA website, anyone keen to join? hee.

From the irobot website, they keep saying that the Scooba will \"pick up dirt\", but avoids using the word \"vacuum\"- so I think it's a bit of give and take.

hmm, I think scooba sort of roughly do sweeping to pickup moderate big dusts and then mop rather than vacuum???

you know how if you mop without vacuuming, the floor will still feel a bit dusty, even if it's not as grimy as when you started? My guess is that to scooba the floor without vacuuming will be like that lor!

depending on what kind of mop you are using. I dun sweep or vacuum floor. but I use those flat mop. so I sweep and mop at the same time.hahha. much cleaning that using conventional mop.


still deciding whether to buy a roomba or scooba.hmm.

Hi I’m vacuum cleaner novice and need some shopping tips.

My requirements are specifically for dust mites - and I don’t want to get Rainbow.

It has to be fully sealed with Hepa filter. I’ve been told by sales person Dyson is good, but I found on the Internet that it’s not fully sealed. Apparently those who really are allergic to dust mites will not find Dyson satisfactory. Any one with asthma or related allergies can share on this point?

A highly recommended brand seem to be Miele but it seems quite hard to find. Any feedback on models and ease of replacing parts from users? Also the price?

Any other brands that you’ve tried for combating dust mites and found good?
