Opening and Batteries July 19, 2008
The battery life is inadequate and opening the unit is counter intuitive. My wife had lots of problems opening the unit because you push the handle down to lift it up. It's a really stupid design on the handle. It works once you understand it, but there's no instructions on how it works.

Gets your floors 90% clean July 18, 2008
If you are lazy and don't like hand scrubbing your floors on a regular basis, the Scooba does a great job getting your floors 90% of the way clean. No, it doesn't do a perfect job, but they certainly look a lot better than doing nothing or using a Swiffer (Dry or Wet).

My husband was very skeptical about this purchase, but he's seen the light. It's very convenient to use. If you go a while between uses, have a turkey baster or a sports bottle handy to squeeze the excess air out of the tubes. It can be a little finnicky, hence the 4-star review.

However, overall we're quite pleased with the purchase and our white linoleum floors look much better than they normally do!

Great Product....WHEN IT WORKS! July 16, 2008
This product works wonderfully...when it is working. I bought this at Sam's and used it weekly for about a month and half before it quit. Luckily I bought the extended warranty at Sams. They sent it off and back...and same routine. This went on 4 or 5 more times and is STILL going on. I JUST got it back today so we will see if the "problem" is fixed.

Bottom line: No product should be out of service more than it is in working condition. This product still needs a LOT more work.

love it, I HATE to clean the floor July 14, 2008
Vacuuming doesnt bother me, but mopping/cleaning my kitchen floor(hardwood) rarely happens (sad but true, and I have 3 small kids) so this is great for me. I use vinegar and it gets the job done in 45min. I have tried hoover floormate, and a steamer, and they always just sat in my closet(am I lazy? yes)
only used a couple of times so i cannot speak to longevity, but so far so good, I recommend it.
