It’s almost time for CES, and that means we’re close to getting to see what surprises the robot vacuum world has in store for us in 2016. And yes, we are dead serious about the excitement implied by that statement. First up is LG, who is giving everyone an advance look at their HOM-BOT Turbo+, […]
We’ve seen robot vacuums like the Neato Botvac Connected finally include Wi-Fi connectivity and smartphone control, but to date, there’s been one conspicuous holdout — iRobot, makers of the Roomba that put robot vacuums on the map in the first place. That changes today with the release of the Roomba 980, the major update since […]
Lightweight vacuums generally suck at carpets, and not in the good way. Dyson’s newest vacuum cleaner is aiming to fix that. The Dyson DC59 Motorhead, excusing its grievous lack of umlauts, looks to be a pretty solid vacuum. It’s a cordless upright vacuum, which would normally mean it’s built with hard surfaces in mind. Not […]
Dyson is back at it again with two updates to their growing line of powerful suctioning beasts. First up is the DC59 Animal, which is so much more than a cordless vacuum. This has the chops to go head to head with a traditional wired vac. The DC59 has been built to last 26 minutes […]
How is it possible to create magic in such a small device? The Dyson DC47 Animal is the latest cylinder vacuum that is so powerful, you’ll be shocked that this machine isn’t bigger than it is. Compact and extremely versatile – the DC47 manages to clean your entire home, fit in the nook of your closet, and […]
What makes a vacuum standout? Is it its looks? Maybe it’s the design or the amount of accessories it comes with. Maybe it is just simply, the way it it does it’s job. The Miele S2121 Capri is all of that and more. This powerful vacuum is lightweight, pleasing to the eye, and a powerhouse. […]
What strikes me about this gold-plated vacuum cleaner isn’t really the gold part – it’s the fact that it’s been made to look like the cheap, old style of vacuum cleaner that usually ends up stuffed in a remote corner of the garage, with a frayed cord and probably a part or two missing.
The thought of canister vacuums often conjures up images of grandmothers lugging dead weight behind them as they perfect their footprint-less living rooms (…or maybe that’s just us). But when you think of Dyson, you probably think of smart, cutting-edge technology. Marry the two together, and you get the $449 Dyson Ball DC39 Multi Floor […]
It has been a few years since iRobot released new models of their prestigious Roomba series vacuum cleaning robots. Well 2011 not only brings one, but three different Roomba’s in the all new 700 series. The Roomba 700 series was first announced late last year and now all three models (760, 770, and 780) of […]
Along with the new Scooba 230, the next generation Roomba, the 700 series, will also make its debut this week at CES 2011. The iRobot Roomba 700 Series will include models 760, 770, 780. Some major improvements to the line are a sleeker design, and the new AeroVac Series II Bin with a powerful vacuum […]
Well we knew that it was time for iRobot to dazzle us again with some new robotic friends, and at CES this week they will indeed be debuting the Scooba 230 Floor Washing Robot. This itsy bitsy floor washing robot is the smallest in the world at 3.5 inches tall and 6.5 inches in diameter. […]
Sometimes a robot can’t do what good old fashioned manual labor can. The Neato XV-11, Roomba’s, Scooba’s, Mint, can be very convenient, yet cleaning steps or getting into nooks and crannies still require the traditional canister vacuum and all its accessories. And if you live in a small NYC apartment getting the right one that […]
First there was the broom, then came the Swiffer. Then there was the Swiffer and then came Mint. Mint Automatic Floor Cleaner 4200 is a new robotic sweeper/mop, or what I like to call – a robotic Swiffer machine. First spotted at CES 2010, Mint by Evolution is an adorable bot that purrs like a […]
Almost a year ago the Neato XV-11 vrroomed it’s way into CES and tried to wow us with its impressive robotic cleaning technology. It even appeared on many best gadgets of CES 2010 lists. However, after CES 2010 ended, months passed and we were almost certain that Neato would become vaporware since we didn’t hear […]
Dyson has always been known for their superior suction power in their vacuums, but they also feature a line of handheld and upright vacuums dedicated to cleaning up after our pets – which provides even more powerful suction. However, it seems that those two vacuums alone just won’t do, as they have just added a […]
Dyson. The name alone brings to mind James Dyson for his silver locks, lush accent, and a dreamy vacuum. Yes, Dyson takes ordinary objects like vacuums, hand dryers, and fans and turns them into engineering masterpieces that have inspired a cult like following. With the Dyson DC23 Turbinehead, a more economical choice (if you think […]
Boy, oh boy – just more and more robotic vacuums seem to be coming along. This latest one may not be as well made as the iRobot ConnectR, that also sports a camera to be able to record video and send footage over the internet. But alas, this Chinese version is already available, where ConnectR […]
The Dyson DC31 Animal could be considered the handheld version of the Dyson upright and canister vacuums. It too has the root technology that its other siblings have, along with powerful suction, and sensitivity to allergens too. I have used many a vacuum in my years on this earth: Hoover, Kenmore, Dirt Devil, Miele, iRobot […]
