Best Buy is Being Taken Over by Robots
By now, most people have seen or heard about the automatic vacuum cleaners or Robovacs as they are commonly referred to as. These little gems will scoot around the floor of your home or office building quietly picking dirt and other debris as you sit around or are off doing other work or chores.
However, not many of you might be aware that there is a new robot in town and it really likes to clean up. Recently, Best Buy started stocking it stores with a whole new type of product and it is catching the attention of today’s buyers. It is called the Robomop and there are a number of options available.
[ad type="mbanner"]Just like its cousin the Robovac, this robotic cleaner goes around your floors in your home and automatically cleans your floors. The main difference is these cleaners scrub the floors instead of sucking up debris from carpets and hard surface flooring.
Best Buy offers two robomops from the industry leader in robotic cleaners; iRobot.
