Roomba...
My daughter bought me a Roomba floor cleaner for Christmas, and I unpacked and charged it today; I didn't want her to come to my house and see it unopened. Here are some comments and questions to those who own one:
It's kinda fun to watch it get lost and turned around in the house. So far it has cleaned about 20' of hall and two bedrooms a dozen times. The indoor cats are just as interested in it as I am. They aren't the least bit afraid of it...but they wouldn't be afraid of Satan if he decided to live here. Roomba hates towels on the floor; it's a trap! But it loves the charging station: It can't pass by it without docking for a charge. Why is that??? The owner's manual says to download an app to my phone for it. Why? Is it not smart enough to learn the layout of my house? How is it going to know there's an app on my phone anyway? |

Got one for my wife this christmas. The app for the phone lets you schedule the cleaning. My wife prefers to simply press the button on it from the station. The app will also update the firmware on the unit when an update is available. There is also the small device that you can lay down somewhere to prevent the unit from cleaning in that area - like cat/dog dish. Seems do to a good job.
