If your iRobot Scooba run at night will it wake you up? Is the scooba quiet or noise when it runs?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

The Scooba does not run quietly. As you might imagine, there's a lot of motor noise in this little machine, and no room for sound insulation. Also, it will bump into things, and some of those things make quite a bit of noise (e.g. chairs on a wooden floor) if they tip or slide when bumped in to. The most theoretically-avoidable and most disruptive noise, though, is the series of beeps when anything interrupts the cleaning (e.g. battery low or "check tank" (dirty water needing to be emptied, clean water (and soap or vinegar) needing to be refreshed)). Unfortunately, the speaker is not easy to access, or to muffle without removing screws (something I have not tried, but have seen instructions).
That said, we run our Scooba at night, and just deal with the noise.
