Well, not all maids can cook or like to cook. Just watch what some of them cook for themselves…gosh, I don’t think you’ll even want to think about putting that stuff in your mouth. I’ve had maids like that before. So my maids never had to cook when I had them.

Hi Chloecube,


Sorry I miss out on this.....I got my robots from a local parallel importer. The local distributor is selling it at a ridiculously high price. But you might still prefer to buy from them.

Anyway, here's where I got from http://www.autovacstore.com and they even provide free delivery.

Hey, i bought my Roomba 560 from http://www.autovacstore.com too. Was referred by a friend, paid $500 for it, so far so good. seems like it picks up a lot of fine dust that i would normally miss with a vacuum cleaner. and its quieter too. I am considering the iRobot scooba 380 now. Anyone used it before? Anyway, the delivery guy was really friendly and helpful too, he did a demostration of the scooba and showed me how dirty the water was after a cleaning cycle. But i am still considering it due its higher cost (around $700) and its seems unable to reach the corners of the rooms as its round-shaped. Anyone used it before, could kindly provide some feedback?

Hi Mrsneo,


I have both the Rhoomba 550 and Scooba 380. Actually just got the Scooba from Autovac too about 2 weeks ago. :celebrate:

I'm very pleased with the Scooba and it's well worth it for me. :rahrah:

It cleans the floor well (as clean as my Osim steam Vac except I don't have to manually do it) but you are right about it not being able to get into corners. So you WILL have to get a mop to clean the edges and corners if you want a thoroughly cleaned floor. If your place is big, the Scooba will not be able to finish up cleaning as it will either run out of water or need a battery recharge as it is alot slower than the Rhoomba.

Cleaning Scooba is easy as it will take only about 5mins to rinse the tank and a few small parts. :boogie:

So now I'm exploring which is the best mop 'cos I'm not quite happy with what I have now. Thinking of getting the \"Spin Mop\" from Homefix.

Anyone got any reviews on the \"Spin Mop\" ?

thks fifiyeo, i will go google on it. if really my maid leave in another 1.5 yr times, i will consider getting all the "robots" to ease my burden…

Can consider tingkat to settle your dinner.
Those brooms bought from neighbourhood shops shed \"hair\" such easily and am wondering if I am using them in the correct manner. :evil:

Hi chloecube, may want to consider the neato VX-11, Read some reviews, seems to be very advanced, with the laser sensing and all. my Roomba 560 seems a little too random for my liking. I read an interesting review comparing the Roomba with it here. http://autovacstore.com/cms.php?id_cms=14
But would like to get some advice from other who actually used it.
