Robot Vacuum Cleaners Have Arrived

The Roomba Robot Vacuum cleaner arrived in 2002 and has since introduced several more new and improved models. Robot vacuum prices range from $100.00 to several thousand dollars. The Roomba has received rave reviews and is the first affordable robot vacuum that really works. The Electrolux Trilobite, Karcher Robo-Cleaner and Friendly Robotics RV400 are very high end robot vacuums that cost over $1000.00.

Most robot vacuums will fit under your bed and can easily reach areas you can't with your regular vacuum. The RV 400 at 13" high will not go as many places as the others but it's larger, 1.5 quart dirt cup make it worth a look. The Karcher RC3000 is my favorite as it empties itself at the charging station. The Black & Decker Zoombot is the cheapest robotic vac model available, however we think you will find the new Roomba Discovery to be a better vacuum.

As the first of what is sure to be many more to come I wish I could afford to buy one of each. These are sure to become collectors items as the new improved models appear over the years.
