Sorry we bought it. Be warned.

published

We use the unit only on a tiled floor. It is useless as a wet mopping device and equally as a dry mop.
The unit only runs for 15 minutes before requiring a recharge or a restart. The replacement mop prices are a disgrace as is the fact that very few retail stores carry them. So one is required to pay extra for delivery.
The unit is less than 12 months old and has been used for less than 100 passes. Now the rubber wheels are disintegrating (see photo attached.) This is a warning to anyone contemplating buying an Irobot product. We previously had a wet and dry unit which they no longer make. It was equally unsatisfactory.



Purchased in January 2021 for A$550.00.

I am sorry to hear this. We try sending parts to help customers faster, however sometimes we should arrange to get the unit in for assessment in house. I am happy to hear Harvey Norman were able to help you out with a store credit.

Fantastic but needs towers!

published

I absolutely adore my iRobot Vacuum so it was a no-brainer to buy the mop the moment it was released. Unfortunately we have tiled floors beside carpet floors and the mop has no virtual wall 'towers' like the vac, so it constantly mops straight onto our carpet everywhere. I've stopped using it because the effort of arranging barricades throughout the house has become too time-consuming and overwhelming. Can someone please educate me if 'towers' are soon to be released for the mop? (Yes I tried the ones I have for the vac and they don't work). Otherwise, it was a great addition to our house.

Very easy and comfortable for use

published

I purchased this irobot on 6 month before. I never plan to buy this shop person explained about product then I buy this. Now I am really very comfortable to use and clean like human. Very useful for working people and old age people. No need to spend time for cleaning. And power saving system and store for small place. I am really happy to share my opinion because it would be helpful for others.

So Quiet and floors never looked cleaner

published

I have an iRobot I use a lot but it’s noisy (about 79 dB) and not suited to being on with the TV on or running at night. I had a gifted Scooba which did a good job on the floors but it’s stopped working and as it’s discontinued I can’t get it repaired. Bought the braava - really quiet have it on in the TV room now it’s hardly noticeable. Does a great dry mop and the wet mop leaves the sealed hardwood floors looking streak free which we’ve never managed no matter how many mops we’ve tried (except for using the Scooba). Very happy with my purchase.

Am really impressed.

published

I ummd and arrd about buying this. There were mixed reviews on it but I’m happy I got it. Firstly, this is an “inbetween” solution. You will need to still do a proper mop here and there but this will tie you over until then. I have 3 kids (boys) and my youngest likes to wander around eating and there are always grubby hand prints on the tiles, hence why I wanted an “inbetween” fix. And the braava does just that. It cleans the dirty hand prints off the tiles and the floor feels clean. I turn it on when we’re leaving and the floors are done when we get home. Definitely worth buying

Great addition to a busy home.

This little mop is great! So handy and quiet. We use in conjunction with a Roomba Robotic Vaccum to keep the timber floors tidy. They still need a proper mop once a week to be cleaned.
It does leave some streak marks if you look at the floor from an angle but that’s being picky.

Almost perfect

published

It's almost perfect.
It done a perfect job on tiles and laminate. It can clean my whole house in one time.
It can also clean all the footprints which I even cannot clean it using a mop on my own.

If one day I don't need to change the dirty pad and fill the water every time then it's perfect like the vacuum robot .
Also it cannot climb even few mm, so every time I have to take it up to clean all the toilets one by one.

Fantastic Product

published

The Braava 380t is fantastic for collecting dirt,dust and pet hair and a great wet mop also. I would not be without it. IXL the company are so courteous and efficient. I needed a new part whilst under warranty. Posted out to me very quickly. Highly recommend.

A must-have!

published

I've been using the 380t for about two months now. I practically use it a couple of times a week to clean my apartment. The wet mopping functions works very well even in tight corners and I love the fact that this little robot is very quiet.

A great house work tool!

published

After reading some reviews we were unsure whether or not to purchase this robot. We have a Roomba 980 which we are very pleased with however we weren't sure if this mop would be beneficial or a waste of money. Let me tell you, we're not disappointed. We have two dogs which live inside with us and often leave foot prints on their way in, this robot cleans them up no problem at all using the wet mopping function. It can't do huge spaces, however it is more than sufficient to cover specific areas or the whole downstairs of our house split up into a few sections. It's absolutely silent, does a great job (better than you might expect) and for the money I much rather put on the robot then spend the time mopping the floors myself!

Love It!

We recently purchased a iRobot Braava and I am so pleasantly surprised it does a great job cleaning our hardwood floors. It is incredibly quiet and does a fantastic cleaning job. The battery charge lasts a couple of hours and the smallish water chamber holds more than I expected. I would recommend to anyone to keep floors clean on a day to day basis :-)

Perfect cleaner for bamboo flooring

published

By the manufacturer of Roomba, this quiet little bot uses microfibre cloths to dust then wipe clean bamboo, timber and vinyl flooring. It does an excellent job, better than I do in fact. Cheaper than an average vacuum (a big plus), easy to use (you can use disposable microfibres), quiet, patient (lets face it, its a bot and bots have their own temperament), and thorough. It works best if you use it regularly and doesn't clean up clumps of dried on oatmeal. For that you'd need a Scooba - but if your floors need gentle cleaning then the cheaper Braava is as useful as a dishwasher for everyday convenience.

Bavaa stop after hitting something, before this it would just turn away after hitting objects and continue working. What could be the reason?

Hi there, sorry to hear this. If you could please provide some further detail on your Braava so we can advise on a solution. Is your Braava shutting down following a collision? Does it indicate an error message when this happens? Does it reactivate and continue its cleaning cycle if prompted?
Please let us know if we can provide any further assistance.
Kind regards, iRobot

Braava indicated error message few seconds before shutting down, after hitting objects. Yes, it restart cleaning if prompted, but would shut down again after hitting something . I need to keep restarting it again and again which is very annoying.
Thank you.

Hello,

I was just wanting to know if this model takes itself "home" like the vacuum does?

Good Morning Nicole
The Braava uses different technology to the Roomba. It will sweep / mop for as long as the battery allows or until the area is completed. Once finished it will return to the start position and switch itself off after playing you a tune to advise you it is done.
Kind regards iRobot

domus

domusasked

I have the iRobot Roomba 980 and love it. I will continue to use Roomba regularly to vacuum up the main dirt and dog hair. However, for a final finish every couple of weeks, I am considering a robot mop for our bathrooms and for our downstairs polished wood and tile area.
Would I be better with the Braava 380t or the Braava 240? I note you recommended the 240 to avoid streaks, but I think elsewhere someone recommeded the 380t for a larger area, which my Lounge/Dining polished wood and my Family Room/Kitchen tiles would be.
Does the 380t come with disposable pads? Can any added solution, other than water, be put into the tank? Also will the 380t or the 240 just navigate around my bathrooms and then my larger polished wood or tile areas? Do both the 380t and the 240 need the navigation box device, and if not, how does the other one navigate. As you can see, I have done some research but I have a number of unanswered queries. Please give advice before I make my purchase.
