Roomba for vacuuming carpets. Scooba for mopping floors. The Dirt Dog for the workshop. Verro for swimming pools. iRobot has built up a considerable reputation as the leader in the automation of homemaking tasks. But the company’s not done yet.
The newest member of the iRobot family is the Looj Gutter Cleaning Robot. No more dangerous overreaching. No more water damage. No more ice dams. The Looj makes regular gutter cleaning faster, easier and safer.
