      do we really need to use their own floor-cleaning solution for Scooba to work? I don't want to be bound to their overpriced solution all the time, but I dont' think I can just use other detergent or solution on this can I?

      I got a refurb for $99 at woot.com about a month ago. At that price I thought it was a good deal, but there's no way I would have paid $200.

      #1, use a diluted vinegar solution (they tell you the ratio on their website). Don't use other detergents or you'll void the warranty.

      This thing and others like it are most rodeo cowboy gimmick to come out in years. People who buy these are knuckleheads. Fat, lazy knuckleheads just like #5.

      #4, I bet you don't have you own place. I have a kitchen >200 square feet hardwood floor, it is helpful to have one of these.

      m0f0 and bacon don't like each other. i think they should have a closed cage death match. i'm now taking bets on who would win. my bet is on bacon. ben told me that m0f0 is registered as a 13 year old girl.

      Consumer Reports rated these very low. Not worth the money.

      Mine is very slow, doesn't dry well and leaves markes on tiles. Not that impressed. Regular roomba much better.
