You wanna know the real reason nature abhors a vacuum? Because
nature is filthy. All that dirt and dust and mold and fungus and
bacteria…think about it long enough and you’ll feel like puking. We
suppose nature is fine in its place. But its place is not in your
carpet.
Stick it to nature and score one for civilization with the iRobot Roomba Discovery SE 4220.
This blindly obedient suckbot will patrol your hard floors and low-pile
carpets for nasty little nasties. All you need do is sprawl languidly
upon the divan, bonbons near at hand. It brushes debris toward its
vacuum opening and stows the gunk in a 31-cubic-inch dustbin. Use “Spot
Clean” and “Max Clean” modes to give special attention to high-dirt
areas, or just let the Discovery SE employ its own soil sensors to seek
out and rectify the dirtiest parts of your floor. And when it’s
finished, or when its battery approaches its two-hour limit, the
Discovery SE finds its own way back to its home base. There, it absorbs
more energy and lives to clean another day. As migratory spectacles go,
those salmon swimming upstream have nothing on this.
We’d
like to see nature come up with something like the two virtual walls
included here, which set up invisible infrared barriers to keep the
Roomba Discovery SE penned into one room at a time. We dare nature to
fully charge the Discovery SE’s battery in less than three hours, the
way the APS Fast Charger home base does.
Stair-sensing technology and an included remote control top off the
Discovery SE’s embarrassment of features.
Man has struggled
for millennia against the corruption and crud of the material world –
lucky for you, victory in this eternal struggle is just $149.99 away.
If cleanliness is next to Godliness, the iRobot Roomba Discovery SE 4220 is, like, St. Peter or somebody.
