iRobot
Okay. I have to admit it. I received one of my Christmas presents early. Last Thursday, in fact. And, I've used it every day since. Well, technically, I haven't really "used" it as much as I have touched a button and walked away.
I received a Roomba Scheduler Vacuuming Robot. With five cats, three dogs, and a main level living area that is basically a giant open square of approximately 1,800 s/f of hardwood floor-space surrounding a center wall area that contains the stairwell to the upstairs level and the downstairs level, plus a laundry room, pantry, and powder room, this little robot is just what I needed. With open archways and columns the main divisions between the formal living room, family room, foyer, formal dining room, kitchen, and breakfast room, the Roomba zips around vacuuming to its little heart's content. I've also taken it upstairs to zip around under the beds and through the rooms on the upper level.
Granted, I had hoped that I would be able to "schedule" it to run during the night but, it seems the noise is a bit too loud for that. Regardless, scheduling it for an hour each day is just as easy to do. So far, it has worked fabulously well, even on the pet hair! I think it was a great investment. I've also heard that there's a mopping robot on the market (or soon-to-be on the market). If I could find a dusting robot, and one that would clean the litter box, I'd be set. Perhaps those flying cars aren't that far away after all . . .
