Intelligent Robot Vacuum Cleaner for £179 from Samba (Value £410 including delivery)
Classic embarrassing dance moves include mimicking household chores such as screwing in light bulbs, washing the dishes, and performing the paperwork polka. Try a more sophisticated samba with today's Groupon: £179 instead of £410 for a robotic household cleaning device from Samba.
The "intelligent cleaning robot" is a hands-free, effort-free vacuum cleaner, making chores more chipper. Making dish cloths look like dunces and feather dusters seem futile, the machine can vacuum a vestibule, and clean any cranny at the click of a couple of buttons. Resembling an electronic turtle, this Samba cleaning robot is encoded to eliminate the dust and dirt, shifting like an amphibian between tufty carpet terrain and smooth linoleum landscapes. Sensory technology allows the machine to detect particularly dirty spots, with powerful batteries enabling it to clean up to four rooms before needing a recharge.
Avant-garde Groupon holders can welcome a futuristic new member into their family in the form of a robotic housekeeper. The robot cleaner comes with one "virtual wall" to mark out an area to clean. The machines are guaranteed for two years, and will be replaced at no cost if they fall short of this mark. Groupon grime-busters can expect their cleaning robot within six weeks of ordering.

It is fantastic! It is my 3rd one – my old one does the garage – the current one the house. [One is dead]. It is effortless to use.
But I have never heard of Samba. It looks similar to the i-robot. And the RRP is how much!?
[PS Dyson not redundant. Needed for corners and tight spots, and spider patrol
So probaly a cheap chinese one that cant buy anywere on ebay rebranded.
I have an iRobot Roomba and have used it for years. It is great but you have to have a tidy home as it doesnt like clutter on the floor or wires that it can get caught on.
I presume Lube you have a robot cleaner and you are experienced in using one (or are you just sharing your opinion on robot cleaners?)
I have a Dyson, a Henry and a Roomba robotic vacuums so am fairly well placed to pass judgement on the differences between each. I also have hard floors throughout my house. If you have carpets then forget robot cleaners - they don't work well as they tend to sweep rather than suck dirt into the collector.
However if you have wooden floors then robot cleaners are fantastic IF you spend a bit on them. The cheaper ones from Ebuyer and the like break and the batteries die quickly. The Roomba one I paid £150 for from Makro has been nothing short of fantastic. I've never regretted buying it and it's saved us an enormous amount of time and effort. It also patiently vacuums near the skirting, and automatically spends more time on dirtier spots. It heads back to the base unit to recharge itself if necessary before setting off again to finish the room... it's literally a labour saving device that in about 10 years everyone will have. Right now people think they are 'gimmicky' who've never owned one, but those who have generally give them very good reviews.
I for one would recommend one BUT only if you have hard floors. They do not work well on carpet as I said.
As for this one - I'd stay well clear - it's an unknown brand and you'd be better going for a Roomba in my opinion...

We gave Mum one for Christmas -- she's in her 80s -- and it has done her mental health a huge amount of good too as she can now clean her own house and she is much happier. Me, I just hate hoovering and Roomba is the best thing I have ever bought. It's also brilliant for getting under the beds where a hoover can't reach. I just wish it would do stairs too!
