Robot Reviews

Hi All, So I just checked the web site that makes HEPA filters for Roomba and they are now giving away a free Microfiber cleaning pad to some limited amount of customers! I guess you pay for shipping but what the heck, what a great way to try out a new product. I asked them if they were having more giveaways and they said to check back often as they will occasionally do a giveaway to help people better understand their products. They are Robot Add-Ons and they can be found at this link: http://www.robotaddons.com/products.html

Good question, I asked the folks that make the HEPA filter. I also realized our Dirt Dog robot has no vacuum at all and does a great job on our cellar floor (???). Anyway, this was their reply: "Our development shows the standard Roomba filter is a single layer paper element that clogs very easily. Our HEPA design is a two stage filter with a specific foam construction on the outer layer to capture the large debris particles and hold them in suspension. This allows the HEPA type material to get maximum air flow from within the foam and not just on its surface. The unique structure of the foam also allows the dirt particles to become dislodged very easily and therefore is easily cleaned. Our engineers have verified this filter will long surpass the standard filter and has led to several significant patents. We can assure you your Roomba will clean the floor just as well, but will now also clean the air you breathe."
