New Electrolux Trilobite 2.0 Vacuum Robot

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the putting-roomba-on-notice dept.

i4u writes "The first version of the Electrolux expensive vacuum robot was launched last May. Electrolux announced the new metallic green Trilobite 2.0 on their Swedish site. The Electrolux Trilobite 2.0 is programmable like a VCR, it also recognises stairs and offers smarter cleaning. Electrolux has carried out 200 improvements. Photos on I4U." And at this rate, perhaps MkIII will be out next spring.

    It's, "Electrolux," not "Elextrolux."

    They wasted their time then. There are only 6 people in the world capable of programming it to do what they want.

    Unless Amazon's Trilobite Price-tag of $1,799.99 is a typo (which it is not), why is this robot 10 times more expensive than the Roomba ($159.99) ?

    I think I would just buy 10 Roombas. Then I would have the added benefit of racing/fighting them.

  4. It would be brilliant by slyxter · · Score: 5, Funny

    I would love to see one of these crossed with one of those lawnmower robots. It could vaccum your house, then go outside to mow the lawn. Maybe it could sit by your front door at night and bark menacingly like a hungry pitbull when it's built-in motion sensor was tripped. Then I would buy one.
    And if it could fetch a beer from the fridge... I would buy two.
