Utility
The iRobot official site claims several benefits to the Looj. First, the device sweeps gutters by automatically, once positioned. This reduces the need for dangerous manual work performed atop a ladder. Second, by removing debris from the gutter, it reduces nesting areas for household pests. Last, it maintains the structure of a house by unclogging gutters, thus preventing water damage.
