iRobot RoombaRobots are not just for killing and defusing IEDs in IRAQ. They are also useful for keeping a house clean for the overworked American. The Boston-based iRobot has been marketing their low cost cleaning robots for years now having sold million of them to American households. The company produces a number of specialized robots that can keep your house clean inside and outside.

Let’s look at some of the cleaning robots offered by iRobot.

For indoor vacuuming of floors nothing beats a Roomba. Several generations since iRobot introduced this intelligent floor vacuum, the Roomba now has grown to be clean better with a more powerful motor, pet-friendly, easy scheduling (so that it cleans when you are not home,) less noise, and more intelligent coverage that literally hunts down dirt in the most remote corners of your house.

Have a hardwood, tile or linoleum floor you want to wash? Then consider the iRobot Scooba 380 floor washing robot. The Scooba is the second robot after Roomba that the company brought to market. I preps, washes, scrubs and squeegees the floor avoiding rugs and carpets. Its patented washing systems guarantees a spotless floor without the mess.

iRobot VerroDone cleaning insider the house? Time to move on to the garage. Unleash Dirt Dog, iRobot’s toughest vacuum cleaning machine. This cleaning monster will sweep any industrial floor surface including your workshop, garage, basement, patio and deck floors. Because of its small size, the Dirt Dog will clean areas you wouldn’t even think about cleaning before such as beneath workbenches, cars and furniture. And the robot has an oversized dust bin for picking up woodchips, nuts, bolts and more.

Time to really go outdoors now. Kids don’t want to help you clean the gutter? Forget them. Let the Looj get to work. This handy robot makes cleaning the gutters fun; it gets the work done with minimum effort on your part. Put the Looj to work and then get yourself a beer and relax at the deck. The Looj takes the danger out of gutter cleaning and frees time for you to enjoy your precious life.

Summer will be back in just a few months. Have a pool in the back yard? Hate having to clean it all the time? Let the iRobot Verro pool cleaning robot do the work and maximize the time you spend enjoying the sun. The Verro is fast and efficient cleaning the pool’s floor and walls while trapping debris and particles as small as 2 microns (that’s really small.) With the Verro, you don’t have to worry about the pool boy hitting on your wife and/or daughter; not to mention that it is actually fun to use.

All I wish for now is for iRobot to design a beer-fetching robot to add to the lot. Wouldn’t that be the shit?
