The proprietary consumables that cleaning gadgets often use – much like ink cartridges – usually cost a bomb, and can render a tool useless if taken off the market. But that is where this hard-working cleaner-bot called the Autonomous Wet/Dry Mop really shines, as it uses widely available dry electrostatic or premoistened cloths to tackle your timber or tiled floors – and all without you lifting a finger.
Methodically and meticulously cleaning all your hard-surface flooring, the Autonomous Wet/Dry Mop collects dust, dirt and hair as it traverses your room in a linear pattern – like the Laser Guided Robot Vacuum does for your carpeted areas – and also moves back and forth in a traditional mopping motion for a more thorough, human-like cleaning.
Including a tabletop terrestrial satellite that guides the cleaner through your room using a technology similar to GPS, the Autonomous Wet/Dry Mop also features on-board sensors to ensure it won’t fall down stairs, run into furniture or get caught on rug fringes, while its low-profile design and rectangular cleaning head tackles hard-to-reach areas without you needing to move furniture.
Cleaning for up to 3 hours straight (exhausting just thinking about it), the Autonomous Wet/Dry Mop covers 1,000 sq ft as a dry sweeper, 250 sq ft as a wet mop, recharges via AC, includes 3 machine washable cloths and is available now from Hammacher Schlemmer for $249.95.
