Title: Not ready for prime-time
Review: If I had written this review within the first month of owning a Scooba I would have given it a fairly high rating. However, over the course of two months, it's become troublesome. It no longer vacuums (I have to sweep first) and occasionally pours dirty water onto the floor, to boot. Little things trip it up -- a piece of Easter grass, for example -- and I'm finding the maintenance annoying. In the time it takes to clean out the machine -- removing the brush, et cetera -- I could easily run a Swiffer Wet Jet through the kitchen. This product has great potential, but I wish I had waited a year before purchasing it, giving the manufacturer time to work out the bugs. As I recall Roomba was bug-gy its first year. The manufacturer successfully repaired the bugs and the price dropped to less than half of what it debuted at. Give this one some time before purchasing -- I wish I had.
