My robotic vacuum

[Steily]

Thats cool i wish even i would have the same.

I've always wanted one. But for me one means two because I have tile and carpet. But still having them would probably be a blast! I love technology

I have a pretty large great room/kitchen area, and it does the whole thing. Goes under all the furniture and around the table and chair legs. It's pretty cool!

Oh I thought it had a base, and when it got low on power it automatically went back to the base to charge. I must be thinking of another brand.

Did your friend install a hidden video camera in that LiL machine? LOL

No, you don't need two! It'll make the transition between carpet and hard surfaces just fine.

I think the more expensive models have that. But I have the least expensive version.

We've seen those around here, but always wondered if they really are worth trying... Now we know.

Exactly what I was thinking. I wonder if it could travel, lets say, 2 km...............that is where my store is. If it could be programmed with 1000% more patience it could dela with seniors all day for me.
That would free up more time for, I dunno?..............riding.

I'm thinking I'm going to be looking on eBay for one.

Or maybe use it during the winter months to keep the roads clear so you could, I dunno, ride more....

Just bought our roomba! If I would have known it would have kept our kids entertained all night I would have bought one sooner.

Either that or the kids would step on it while they stampede through the house.

how old are ur kids?

I have parrots that throw seed everywhere. Seed has destroyed several upright sweepers. And the Roomba's capacity I think would be less than adequate. I think I'll hold out for the king size model.

Well, he got me one for my birthday. And wow! It's amazing. I love it! Right now, while I'm sitting in here typing, it's vacuuming my hallway, living room, dining room and kitchen. Yesterday it did the bedrooms. It does a really good job (an amazing job, really), and it's fun to watch. It does't fall down the stairs! It's kind of like having a little pet, only this pet cleans up after you instead of your having to clean up after it.

I'm going to have to get the floor-washing model.

This is like having The Jetson's Rosy the Robot living in the house. Now if only I could teach it to cook and do dishes...

We have one Jukeif, but we have to take our pug outside fefore we can use it. The dog just goes crazy. Sometimes I put it when friends are over, just so they can laugh at the pug. He is so threatened by the thing that he fights it.
The thing actually does a good job though.
