About Mini-Mole
In February 2014, our founder, Phil Caruso, dropped some change on the floor in his living room. While retrieving the coins, he reached under the TV stand, and a handful of dust and fur came back with the coins. The 2 inch clearance under the TV stand made it difficult to clean under furniture like this.
Phil's search for automated cleaners to take care of this mess revealed that there was nothing available to clean under furniture with ground clearances under 3 inches. Cleaning services don't normally move heavy furniture to clean floors, and the rest of us certainly don't do it very often—if at all! Existing automatic floor cleaners are over 3 inches tall, so they can't reach these areas, and the dust just keeps building up.
Inspired by the small, burrowing mammal known as a mole, the Mini-Mole was born!
