iRobot 530 Roomba Vacuuming Robot, White

With dramatically improved navigation, cleaning coverage, vacuum pickup, and particle filtration, the Roomba 530 vacuuming robot picks up amazing amounts of dirt and debris with the simple touch of a button. The powerful unit features innovative spinning side brushes that grab dirt and dust from corners and along wall edges, as well as two high-speed, counter-rotating brushes that pick up pet hair, cat litter, food crumbs, and other debris from floors. The vacuum sucks up the debris and deposits it into a large, easy-to-empty bagless dustbin, and its improved fine-filtration system traps dust, pollen, and other allergens inside the unit, reducing infiltration into the living environment. For added convenience, the vacuum's cleaning head automatically adjusts to transition from wood, tile, and linoleum to carpets and rugs, while improved anti-tangle technology ensures it won't get stuck on cords and rug fringe. If the unit begins to pick up a cord or carpet tassel, it will automatically reverse the direction of its brushes to extract the item. A gentle-touch bumper system senses obstacles so the vacuum automatically slows its approach, gently touches the obstacle, then redirects to continue cleaning under or around the object. Because it cleans under beds, couches, and other hard-to-reach areas, it actually vacuums more of the floor than a standard upright can. The vacuum also senses dirtier areas and spends more time cleaning them, and it uses built-in cliff sensors to avoid stairs and other drop-offs. In addition, invisible barriers can be set using the unit's Virtual Wall system. To mark off-limit areas, simply place a Virtual Wall at a doorway or other opening and adjust the infrared beam setting to the distance of the opening. The unit automatically detects the beam and will not cross it. The vacuuming robot returns to its self-charging Home Base to dock and recharge between cleaning cycles or when the battery starts to run low. Its advanced power system c

Electrolux EL 510A Brisa Intelligent Silent Air Cleaner

Research increasingly points to the need for better indoor air quality in homes to reduce asthma and allergy triggers. The Electrolux Brisa is a powerful and quiet new way to clear the air and reduce allergens and particles in the air that can cause breathing difficulties. Brisas fan draws the air into the unit where a filter traps the larger dust particles. The air then enters an internal ionization chamber and smaller particles are charged with positive ions. These charged particles are drawn to the negatively charged filter plates in the following chamber. Brisa is effective in improving indoor air quality and maintaining a healthy home. Brisa is designed with open filter plates and a quiet yet powerful fan so youll receive the silent flow of clean air. Brisa also has superior sound sensors that allow the cleaner to distinguish between high and low volume noise within your home. The sound sensor mode allows Brisa to work harder in noisier surroundings and adjusts automatically to a lower setting when your house is quiet without disturbing you. The end result is a highly efficient, extremely quiet air cleaner. Brisa has automatic control functions that adjust according to the air quality and noise level within your home. In the dust sensor mode, Brisa will work harder to clean dirtier air. The work pace will decrease if you have higher indoor air quality. Brisas sound sensor mode allows the air cleaner to adjust its work pace depending on the level of noise within your home. Brisa will work harder in noisier settings to maximize cleaning and, in quieter surroundings, it will adjust automatically to a lower and quieter setting. Automatic operation allows you to have cleaner air and reduces the hassle of adjusting your cleaner. Brisa satisfies air quality standards and offers you the assurance of clean indoor air. Brisa has an electronic display that monitors the improvement of your homes air so you can see, at a glance, that you have cleaner, healthier air in
