iRobot Looj 330


The iRobot Looj 330 Gutter Cleaning Robot autonomously blasts away dirt and brushes gutters clean at the press of a button.

Looj features a high-velocity, four-stage auger for improved debris management. The robot will blast away leaves, dirt, and clogs while brushing gutters clean. Just press the CLEAN button and Looj travels through your gutters, sensing and adapting to debris in order to provide the most effective cleaning possible.

A safer way to clean your gutters, Looj reduces repeated ladder climbing and overreaching from dangerous heights. The detachable handle doubles as a remote control, giving you complete forward and reverse control of the robot. The remote can also control the spin direction of the auger so dislodged gutter debris can be tossed in the correct direction, away from your roof. Looj can also work autonomously, cleaning your gutter all on its own, by just pressing CLEAN.

Looj cleans by using spinning auger breakers to split apart clogs (1), ejectors to lift and throw debris from gutters (2), and sweepers and scraper follow behind to provide extra cleaning performance and a clear path to travel back (3)

Looj comes equipped with a simple one-button CLEAN mode and detachable handle At just under 2” high and 3” wide, Looj fits in most K-style gutters Waterproof design for wet leaves and environments plus spray down to clean Lithium-Ion battery for powering through tough clogs and winter storage 4-Stage cleaning process to dislodge and remove gutter debris
Belt clip for hands free transportation and ladder safety


Product Features

Simple One-Button CLEAN Mode – Just press the CLEAN button and Looj travels along your gutter on its own, sensing and adapting to debris. When Looj is done, simply double-click the reverse button and it comes all the way back to you. Looj can also operate in Manual Mode, allowing you to control its forward and reverse directions. You can also control the auger’s spin direction, so debris is propelled out of the gutter and away from your home.

Lithium-Ion Battery – This battery technology equips Looj with a strong power source, giving it the power needed to handle your gutters, including tough clogs, in no time. Lithium-ion battery technology also increases the life of the battery allowing it to still run like new after long winter storage.

Four-Stage Auger - The auger uses a 4-stage cleaning process to dislodge and remove gutter debris. First, the auger breaker splits apart clogs so the ejectors can then lift and throw debris from your gutters. Next, the breaker bars continue to split tougher clogs so finally, the sturdy polypropylene sweepers can brush gutters clean. Additionally, a scraper follows behind the auger to provide extra cleaning performance and make sure the path is cleared for the robot to quickly travel back.

Safety –The Looj 330 reduces repeated ladder climbing and overreaching from dangerous heights to make gutter cleaning a safer task. Plus, the included belt clip keeps your hands free as you climb up and down the ladder and since the detachable handle doubles as a remote control, giving you complete forward and reverse control of the robot, so you only need to put your ladder in one spot.

Remote Control Handle with Long Range – The detachable handle is also the remote control, giving you complete manual or automatic control. The wireless controller with 2.4 GHz RF has a long communication range of 50’, allowing you to drive the robot further along the gutter so you can clean longer stretches of gutter without moving the ladder.

Low Profile Design – More compact than previous Looj models, now at just under 2” high and 3” wide, Looj is able to fit in more gutters, including most K-style aluminum, copper, metal, or vinyl gutters.

Waterproof Design – Wet leaves are often the biggest culprit in clogged gutters. Looj is designed to operate in the wet environment of gutters, which also makes for a quick clean-up; simply spray Looj with a hose when done.

Customizable – Looj includes 2 sizes of auger ejectors – large and small. This allows you to customize Looj to fit the type of debris that can vary by season or type of gutters found on homes.

Accessories - Looj comes complete with a belt clip to provide hands-free carrying. The belt clip keeps your hands and legs free for safer ladder climbing. An optional storage case keeps Looj and all its parts and accessories safe and protected during storage and allows for easy handling to and from the job site (available for purchase). Additional ejector styles are also available for purchase in the Looj Accessory Kit for maximum customization of the auger. You can be ready to tackle most any gutter condition with the purchase of all additional accessories.

One day this will be great. ( but not yet )

One day this will be great. ( but not yet )
After having 3 home-improvement gutter-dudes flake out (not show up) - I was happy to explore the potential to pass another mundane task to our future robotic overlords. The iRobot Looj 440 has a ton of potential but some serious flaws that keep it from being anymore more than a novelty. I bought the Looj with a particularly troublesome span of gutters on my house in mind. The majority of my gutters can be easily accessed with a common ladder and it is easy enough to get them with a pressure washer and gloves, scooping out debris. One span of the gutters is at a 3rd level height, which I can access from a sub roof and not-so-dangerous ladder climb. The hope was to deploy to the Looj at the point of the roof where I can access and let it work itself down the span, avoiding the need for an extension ladder. After charging the Looj overnight (which seems overkill for a lithium battery but is explicitly requested by the instructions) I started the Looj off on a simple span of gutter over my garage. It was last cleaned 3 months ago, still passed water but had a light debris of pine straw and some leaves. The Looj traveled about 2.5 feet until the pine straw was wound around the auger / paddle area and it seemed to be struggling. I drove it manually back to me and cleared the pine straw and sent it back to work. This process repeated for 45-minutes to an hour - for a 20ft gutter span. (The same gutter span could have been cleaned in 15 minutes with the pressure washer and two movements of the ladder). I then took the Looj (after a charge) to our back porch. These gutters included a light dusting of dirt on the bottom and some clumps of dry leaves. It took the Looj (and me fiddling with the remote like driving an RC car) about 30 minutes per 10 ft span. It was eventually able to clean these spans but it seemed to get hung-up easily. "Hung up" is an important note. The Looj has an LED indicator on the side of the unit and on the remote that blinks when it encounters resistence. If you try to power through the resistance for too long, the unit will shut itself down, ostensibly to prevent damage to its internal drive mechanism. I understand the need for the feature but the implementation is poor. It should be a 10-20 second lock out, not a full-shut down. After this round, I was a little annoyed that the project wasn't actually saving me any time but the hope was that the Looj could save the day on this tall span of gutter and prevent the need for a costly and dangerous ladder excursion. I charged the Looj one more time, climbed to the subroof and sent the Looj about it's task, trying the automatic "clean" button. It traversed over the span of previously cleaned gutter and as it encountered a glob of wet leaves and grime, it jammed up against the glob and started trying to kick out the debris. The light starts to blink to let me know that everything is not okay, so I take over manual control and back away from the debris. I then commend to a pattern of wait... advance... back off.. wait.. advance.. back off - trying to dislodge a small patch of wet leaves. It makes about an inch of progress each cycle and after about 15 minutes, locks me out and shuts down. Not only did I have to buy the expensive extension ladder and commit to the excursion to clean my gutters, I had to rescue the damned "robot", too. The debris that it was hung up was a pitiful single handful of damp leaves, not an adobe brick of doom, as it seemed to behave. It was at this point that I completed the job with the ladder and a pressure washer in about 1/2 the time it would have taken with the Looj. The looj could be awesome and I would imagine that with progress, it will be. My suggestions: The auto-shutdown thing needs to be reworked and not shut the whole unit down but to momentarily rest. The auto-clean mode is useless but they needed this mode to claim that this R/C toy is a robot. The auger shaft bristles should be reworked to prevent pine needles from wrapping around the shaft. The entire unit would benefit from more heft (weight) More auger paddle sizes (than the two included), faster auger RPMs Distinct motors to drive the Auger PTO and the Drive system, enabling a mode where the Auger can turn but the tracks do not drive the unit forward, so you can park on the edge of a clump and slowly easy into it. I love the idea of consumer robots like this. It could literally save lives /injury and at a minimum could provide a useful service. This idea is so good that I hope iRobot keeps trying and gets it right in a version or two. Until then, maybe I'll make an attachment for a drone to do this for me...

    The media could not be loaded.
    Works like charm in my North England gutters.

    I had a few choices: get a 40 ft ladder, pay somebody to clean my gutters or get the Looj. I decided to try the Looj and I am really really surprised how well this works.
    Our gutters get every year full of leaves and need to be removed before they decompose. I have a few gutters which are really high and not easy accessable, so this device should come in very handy.
    I dropped it in the gutters, turned it on and it worked like charm. It really cleaned all my gutters. All I had to do is standing there and please the button. I was really surprised.

    Two Cons:
    - battery is not lasting very long, so I had to recharge them after one side of the house was done. Took about 2-3 hours to recharge.
    - the communication rage is not long enough for me. Somehow it's seems being less then 50ft, which isnt enough for me. This should be way more.

    Something I noted will using the Looj, its hard to see within a distance. As I said I cant follow the gutters with the ladder I have only access to the gutters on one side of the house. It's hard to see 30-40ft away and its hard to determine the direction of travel, the position of the Looj (normal, on it's side, etc). This should be addressed somehow. Make it brighter, add a small antenna (with would benefit the range too), so the user can see it better.

    My gutters are filling up again, so I am really looking forwards of using the Looj next weekend again. :)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great solution to a difficult chore.
    Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    Since we have lots of roof segments with gutters, moving ladders around is a chore, especially the gutter that runs across the top of the house, above the peak of the garage roof. Setting up ladders on the tilted surface to reach the ends of this gutter is wa-a-ay too exciting.

    I bought this robot with the hope of helping my husband with the gutter cleaning chore. We are very very pleased with it.

    When the gutters and flashing have been installed correctly, there is enough room under the gutter hanging straps for the robot to proceed thru the gutters without any problem. It successfully removed leaves and other tree litter, as well as sections of dirt-and-moss that had colonised the hard-to-reach segments of the gutter.

    In one section of our gutters, the flashing sticks into the gutter at an angle (improperly installed) so there is not enough room for the robot to go from one end to the other. Gets about half-way, and gets stuck.

    In another section, the hanging straps on the gutter have sagged/bent over the years, and the robot cannot sneak under these.

    All in all, this is a very useful tool, that works as advertised, and handles all the different kinds of litter we have in our gutters: Leaves, compacted elm seeds, dirt, moss. We did not use it when the gutter contents are wet. That will be an experiment for another day.

    I would happily buy this again, at full price, and I would give it as a gift to any home-owner who cleans his own gutters. It was easy to figure out how to use it, and it was effective.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2014
    Verified Purchase
    I have tried two of these and found that neither one was able to deal with the real world situation of my Northeast US gutters. The first one threw a track after traveling about 50 feet down our longest gutter at precisely the highest point of my house. The robot was able to limp home minus one track and, after speaking to an iRobot rep, I had it replaced by Amazon. I tried my second one on a simple gutter job: about 15 feet of gutter. The unit continuously failed (red light) and had to be retrieved. I thought it was a defective unit but in fact the type of leaves in the gutter (matted and decomposed since we didn't have time to remove them in the Fall) led to two failure conditions: a couple of bristles bent and were wrapped around the spindle (kudos for the computer brain recognizing this) and then some leaves stuck in the tracks (again, recognized by the computer).

    I envision scientists testing this gizmo in lab conditions with artificial leaves but in the real world, the unit needs to stand up much better to wear and tear. I would suggest using rubber wheels rather than tracks (like an Army humvee) since tracks are notorious for being easy to throw once debris gets in the way. I would also have the nose of this unit be more like a tunnel boring machine so that it can pierce any clogs and then follow by the scrubbers (suggest metal) and finally the ejectors.

    In any case, for now, this just isn't ready for prime time, at least with my gutters.

    I have been using this product for 3 years and can provide a long term review. From day 1 this has been been a joy to use, found I had to switch to the smaller sized rubber Augers so that the unit would not get stuck. Battery is still going strong considering I use this unit once every 4-5 months. Waterproof so cleanup is a breeze. I have long lengths of gutters, one side is over 100ft in length, turn it on one end and go watch the football game, when it eventually gets to the other side after approx 25mins, I simply turn it around and go back to where it started, gutters are CLEAN!!!

    Though this is an expensive option for cleaning gutters, it's far cheaper than hiring someone to do it, plus you'll have this for many, many cleanings. Unfortunately my run was a major disappointment.

    I put on the small blades, thinking it would have less chance of getting stuck, by the Looj only cleaned 2' before it couldn't go any further, then went back and forth a few times before the battery ran out. It lasted 5 minutes, and cleaned 2', though it did a great job in that short space. I'm reluctantly returning it to Amazon. I had high hopes, and they were flushed down the gutter. Bummer!

    The iRobot 330 is only ok. The point of getting it was to have an almost hands-free gutter cleaning experience, but it ended up getting hung up several times, the worst time being when it attempted to get past a chestnut that it could not throw. What I really don't like is that when there is a failure, you need to retrieve the robot out of the gutter, power it down, then power it back on again, rather than being able to use the remote to do an override. My gutters had pretty heavy build up, so I had to pre-clean them in order for the robot to work, but I expect it will work fine in the fall with freshly fallen leaves. Cleanup was easy, and the battery lasted the 45 minutes I had it running with more to spare. In the end, I think I'll keep it, because apart from getting stuck a few times, it did a good job of cleaning and definitely saves some time spent going up and down the ladder.
