Who said you can’t look stunning, while going about your daily chores? The world’s smallest floor-washing robot, the iRobot Scooba 230 is as stunning to look as efficient. At 3.5 inches, the iRobot Scooba 230 is used to scrub tiles, linoleum and sealed hardwood floors. It is programmable as every other model, and cleans in tight spaces, including under and around cabinets and furniture and next to the toilet. The company will also unveil its new Roomba 700 series, with a number of cleaning and detection improvements like the Debris Detector and a wireless command center.

The new Scooba 230 will soon be available in their online store with the prices starting at $299 and from $450 for the Roomba 760, 770, and 780.
