The Mint Automatic Floor Cleaner from Evolution Robotics is
designed exclusively for sweeping and mopping hard surface floors
for you. Using dry and pre-moistened cleaning cloths, Mint picks
up the dust, dirt and pet hair that constantly accumulate on
floors. Mint's compact design gets into tight spaces, under
furniture and into other areas that are hard to reach with
traditional mops and sweepers.
Guided by the NorthStar Navigation System cube, Mint tracks
where it cleans so it doesn't miss a spot (see larger image

).
The easy-to-use controls (see larger image

). Guided by the NorthStar Navigation System, Mint methodically
cleans open areas by moving back and forth in straight lines,
working around furniture and rugs, and cleaning along baseboards.
Mint is easy to use. Simply attach your cleaning cloth of choice,
choose sweep or mop and let Mint clean for you. Since Mint is not
a vacuum, there are no bins to empty or filters to replace. So
you can enjoy hassle-free clean floors every day.
Intelligent Navigation
----------------------
The NorthStar Navigation System works like an indoor GPS that
helps Mint keep track of where it has been and where it needs to
go. Specifically, the NorthStar Cube projects a signal that Mint
uses to determine its location. Then as Mint starts cleaning, it
builds a of the area as it goes, marking walls, obstacles and
drop offs as it encounters them. After Mint finishes cleaning
open areas and around obstacles, it performs a final edge
cleaning along walls and furniture and then returns to where it
started so you know right where to find it.

).
Mint can and clean up to 800 square feet either in a large
open space or by discovering adjacent rooms. In mop mode, the
cleaning area is restricted to 250 square feet to optimize
cleaning while the cleaning cloth is wet.
Sweeps & Mops
-----------------
Mint's dual modes let you easily maintain all your hard surface
floors with one device. In Sweep mode, Mint uses a dry sweeping
cloth to pick up dust bunnies, pet hair and grit from your floor.
In Mop mode, Mint cleans with a pre-moistened cleaning cloth and
a special back-and-forth mopping motion to pick up deeper dirt
and grime. All it takes to switch modes is a fresh cleaning cloth
and a press of a button.
Cleaning Cloths
---------------
Mint works with commonly available disposable cleaning cloths or
with re-usable microfiber cloths. Mint's specially designed
microfiber cloths can be re-washed and re-used hundreds of times.
Different cloths have been developed to optimize both sweeping
and mopping. Flat white microfiber cloths are ideal for
attracting dust and dirt while dry sweeping. Textured grey cloths
hold water and help loosen and grab deeper grime when mopping.
Mint comes with a starter pack of 1 mopping and 2 sweeping
cloths.

Care Instructions
-----------------
To keep your cloths in good shape for hundreds of hours of
cleaning, please follow these laundering recommendations: *
Machine wash warm.
* Tumble dry low or air dry.
* Do not use fabric softener or bleach as these can degrade the
cloth fibers over time. Wet cleaning with microfibers is safe for
sealed floor surfaces including tile, vinyl, laminate and sealed
hardwood. Disposable pre-moistened cloths are usually safe for
the same floor types, but always check the package to make sure
they are safe for your floor type.
