iRoomba or Roomba?
The phrase “iRoomba” is searched quite a bit today. Technically, the popular phrase is not entirely accurate. When people talk about the iRoomba, they are really referring to a robotic vacuum cleaner called the Roomba, made by a company called iRobot.
It’s really quite easy to understand why so many people call the Roomba by this ‘i’ version of it’s real name. However, for purposes of this site, you’ll hear use the phrases interchangeably…..just don’t let the two phrases confuse you….they are one in the same!
So, where to start? No matter how you came across this website, we want to help you understand more about the iRoomba. Let’s start with you…..you will likely fall into one of the following buckets….
- I’ve never heard of iRoomba OR Roomba for that matter. Robot vacuum cleaners?
- The name sounds familiar, heard about robot vacuum cleaners but that’s about it.
- I know what the Roomba is but it’s been a while….what is the latest technology and models? You might want to start with our roomba reviews page where we discuss several of today’s hottest models.
Our household purchased the Roomba 530, an ‘entry’ level iRobot vacuum which has literally changed the way we view ‘cleaning’ around the house day in and day out. For someone who hates to vacuum the gobs of white hair our two small Jack Russell dogs leave behind by the hour, the Roomba has been a life saver.
We have saved, without a doubt, at least 30 minutes to one hour a day vacuuming manually because we run this machine every single day. With a little quick math, the 530 saves us up to 7 hours per week, 28 hours per month. What could you do with an extra 28 hours per month? Not vacuum for one!
I’ll be posting personal videos soon on this site to show the amount of hair and debris our new work horse picks up on a daily business. The small disc shaped vacuum has quickly become a part of our family oddly enough. Our 6 year old daughter named her ‘EVE’ after the adorable robot in the movie, Wall-E.
I think at this point, if we lost Eve for any reason we might go into a panic attack. For now, I’m going to use the extra 20 plus hours each month to build a website and update it with lots of content, both static and video, to share what this remarkable line of robotic vacuums can do to possibly change YOUR life in the way it has ours in such a short time.
If you want to see the exact model we own and are filming on this site, you can find it here (or you can catch up on a quick Roomba comparison here):
