    Thank you so much! I just had mine delivered yesterday, and just a little apprehensive about not knowing how to use or maintain it properly. These videos from people who have first knowledge is very reassuring. Great video!

    Thanks for all the info on the Braava. I'm buying one today from BBB with 20 percent off. I'll use distilled water and just heat a small amount in the microwave to get it warm. I agree with you on use of tap water from your first video on this device plus our water is hard even though we have a softener and filters on the water lines. Your info and time to make the videos is much appreciated.

      @Pete Bryant my same idea! I will use distilled water,to keep it from calcium deposits!! But warm,hey, what an amazing guess you had!! Bravo!!

    Thanks you saved me! The strainer didn't get back, just as I touched it and didn't get how to place it back. Your video taught me well!!
    Bought this yesterday and already got that it's a good tool for small bathrooms and kitchen!

    Seems like you could put distilled vinegar in it mixed with water as well. This will kill any odor you have in the tank.

      Note: Although the bottle says "Braava jet", iRobot Hard Floor Cleaner is suitable for Scooba® robots, as well. You may use 2 oz of white vinegar per tank of water (not recommended for marble floors).

    Update: I either soak the actual pad and then start or I spray the floor with the floor cleaner. It’s works perfectly! I don’t usually put water in the reservoir and it’s been working fine. That way it’s not diluted. Floor cleaner works way better than just plain water FYI

    Hi! I just got mine recently and I’ll turn it on today. I bought the Cleaning Solution but it is not mentioned in the robot instructions. Also, I don’t want to peel off the instructions in the bottle in case I have to return it to the store. The bottle mentions it is for Braava Jet m6, 200 and 300 but not our model 240. Thanks in advance :-)

    I need to know a current information of what to use in my new Braava Jet 240. I’m getting mixed info from the few sources out there. I have tried to call the Bona company directly but, just a recording stating it’s hours of operation and to call back when they are open. It’s always on no matter what time of day I call. I happen to live in their mountain time zone too. I did purchase their iRobot certified brand of Hard Surface cleaning solution. I don’t want to ruin my new Braava Jet 240. Please help!

    This seems like common sense. I've had mine for over a year and no issues. I leave it open over night to dry.

      Did your nozzle ever clog? Mine is just a month old and nozzle is just dribbling instead of spraying water.

      According to IRobot’s website you can use their hard floor cleaning solution in the tank of the 240. They recommend two capfuls.

    • @KevCentral
      @KevCentral  7 років тому +1

      +Kevin Sanders Do NOT add soap to the tank. It's not designed for that and can ruin your robot. That said, I have a suspicion based on a questionnaire I recently completed that they may soon be coming out with some sort of solution that can be added to the tank.

      +Bella's World if it’s a reusable pad I don’t see why you couldn’t put whatever cleaner you wanted directly into the pad, but that’s personal opinion. I’m sure iRobot support would be happy to let you know what can and can’t be used.
