I personally dun feel good getting from Ebay. Bcos an important part of the robot is battery, and it determine the performance and life of your unit. If Ebay selling an refurbished unit n you got an used battery, you would need to buy a replacement battery sooner... Oh ya, saw in HWZ forum got ppl order thru Vpost and the unit kena stuck in US Vpost.. Becos they dun want to ship the battery!! Then how??
-
yup, just as RooRoo said, I did not vacuum b4 running the scooba, just pick off any big items eg paper, plastic. In fact, I felt there some diff when deciding btw Roomba and Scooba. Choose which is suitable for u... Scooba --> Floor REAL clean. But take note it is not hassle free, need monitor and supervise. Refill water, shift location, clean parts etc Roomba --> Floor not as clean as Scooba, but is REALLY hassle free. Just throw the unit down and let it do its work. It will recharge itself when battery low.. That time I got my scooba 350 slightly below $500, bcos my wife's US colleague carry over for us, plus using a promo code which entitle 20% off and free ground shipping. Too bad the promo code expired liao. I considering getting a Roomba next round.

My scooby doo work really well for me, the floor is cleaner and I can have more time nua on m sofa But hor, the battery life is not long enough to clean the whole 5 room flat.. the battery went flat when it is cleaning the last room

if order by vpost, you could tio GST, and total up, the freight cost can be as high as $120... eg. for scooba 350, Irobot selling = S$610 (US$399) gst = $43 Vpost = $80 (Estimate) Total cost will be abt $733 I would suggest you buy from gkrobots (http://www.gkrobots.com/), unless you have US friends to carry over for you. The website selling at S$738, you save all the hassles plus 1 week warranty

Hi, 5900 is very old model, do not get it. Basically it is very noisy, plus it cannot run with plain water, must use their own cleaning solution for every cleaning. You will have big trouble after the cleaning solution run out as it is very EXPENSIVE! When buying a scooba, there are several things to take note. 1.) Floor area (The water and battery of the scooba determine) 2.) Need supervision (It is not so smart, so u have to sub divide your floor area) 3.) Floor (Not advisable on laminate flooring) Model 5800 -- Cover area 250sq ft Model 350 -- Cover area 500 sq ft (I bought this) Model 380 -- Cover area 850 sq ft

Hi, I leave my mod charger to charge overnight and it works perfectly. My fully charged scooba run for more than 1 hours to complete whole hse cleaning and battery still going strong. Strongly recommend to mod the charger instead of using AC converter.
-
Actually mod the charger cost only $2 to $3, that is to buy the C1 capacitor, excluding transportation cost lah .. 1.) Roomba 47uf 400V or Scooba 100uf 400V 2.) Remove VR1 or RV1 varistor 3.) Line PCB fuse (I think can just leave it based on some research from the web) Also thanks to the help from kohsw88, I just mod my scooba charger today, and I will test it out tonight and feedback the result here. here are the links I found having useful info http://gianmauro.wordpress.com/2006/12/29/...0v-to-220v-mod/ http://www.roombareview.com/chat/viewtopic...p;highlight=220 For Scooba http://mysite.verizon.net/gsplews/26DCpwrSup.htm

Actually I would still hope they can allow deposit payment and provide a year warranty... cos furniture not cheap. But good their product and service not bad

Ok, I received my sofa yesterday No issue, delivery was prompt.

My slope sofa is quite wide, wonder whether it will fit in the lift?? It is coming tomorrow, finally. I bought my coffee table from Mondi, but very big.. Hope it looks nice, my living area also very small.

Beside LG, any other recommended brand for DVD Recorder HTS? Got around $700+ ?
-
Thanks guys, now I understand more. Actually I also do not know what I will put in the book shelve. I dun read and do not have much books.. but maybe put lots of other rubbish We want to buy bcos we like the Billy glass door with floral. Also The shelves are cheap but now know compromise with the material. See whether I have time to look around first, if not think I will just get it.
-
now I confused liaoz.. But good at least I know someone have no problem using the BILLY. Will consider it, if I are to get, I will choose the 40cm width one.. Dun think the 80cm can hold the weight of books...
