## Executive read

### BLUF

April is a thin month. CPSC 11-733 (Cub Cadet Z-Force riding, 13 April) is out of class. iRobot’s 26 April first-quarter release and 27 April call say a limited website launch of Roomba 700 has just been initiated. That is a channel statement, not a recall and not a numbered trust file.

### Key judgments

1. **[Assessment — High confidence]** A search of CPSC, Health Canada, RAPEX weekly reports, manufacturer recall pages, and named newsrooms produced no spine-grade consumer kinematic electronics action dated April 2011.
2. **[Assessment — High confidence]** CPSC **11-733** (13 April 2011, Cub Cadet Z-Force / Tank L riding; fuel-tank leak / fire) is not a robotic mower file.
3. **[Assessment — High confidence]** On 27 April iRobot said it had “just initiated a similar limited launch of the new Roomba 700 series” after a website-only Scooba 230 start. No official Roomba CPSC page accompanies that sentence.

### Analytic labels
- **Fact** — verified reporting or primary record
- **Assessment** — analytic judgment
- **Inference** — reasoned but not directly observed
- **Uncertainty** — unresolved information gap

### Source grades
- **A1** — authoritative primary record / directly confirmed
- **B1–B2** — generally reliable and corroborated
- **C3** — useful but requires caution (typical for forums)

## No numbered signals

This month produced **zero** in-window spine-grade signals. Cub Cadet 11-733 is ride-on. The Roomba 700 limited website launch is a live-SKU start without a harm, trust, recall, or docket hook and is not numbered.

**Forum / community notes.**
- none found.

---

## Forward indicators

1. Any CPSC / Health Canada / RAPEX robotic-mower or robot-vac action.
2. Any official IEC / EN particular-requirements publication for robotic battery mowers (prior drafts exist; no 2011 catalog date located).
3. Any educational-kit or companion battery / fire / laceration file.
4. Any official iRobot Roomba recall.
5. First dated consumer-home companion SKU or safety action (a CES demonstrator is not a home SKU).

> **Collection integrity.** Window = April 2011 only. **Excluded:** CPSC 11-733 Cub Cadet riding, 13 April; iRobot Q1 release 26 April ([media.irobot.com](https://media.irobot.com/press-releases?item=122461); SEC 8-K [000095012311039308](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1159167/000095012311039308/b86192e8vk.htm)) and 27 April call (limited 700 launch “just initiated”) — channel Fact, not a safety file. No CPSC Roomba page. No RAPEX robotic-mower alert. No companion / kit battery action. Forum empty. Thin month left thin.
