  • Accessible House Cleaning Gadgets, Part 2: Roomba 630 Robot Vacuum with Speech

    This is the second podcast in our accessible house cleaning gadgets series. Please click here for Part 1. In this episode, Chris describes and demonstrates another accessible vacuum, the iRobot Roomba 630. You will hear the vacuum’s text to speech voice, and experience the sounds of the vacuum performing a quick spot cleaning.

    After a brief in-house ad (yes, Kim has some of those done, finally!), Chris shares a bit about an accessible robotic mop, the Scooba 450, also an iRobot product. Kim plays devil’s advocate with Chris, asking why someone may want some of these robotic products to begin with. Chris then shares that he’s creating an audio tutorial on the Scooba 450. It will be approximately an hour to an hour and a half in length, and cost right around $15. To be placed on the priority list so that you will be one of the first to be notified when the tutorial is available for purchase, please send an email to:

    with “Mop Tutorial” in the subject line.
