Roomba Makes Me Happy

I have a Roomba.  For those of you poor schmucks who have not heard of a Roomba it's a robot vacuum.  Yes!  Robot!!!  Every morning when I leave for work I pick up the dog toys, click the green button and walk out the door.  When I come home it's like magic - my floor is vacuumed.  This makes me happy.  When one has dogs that shed in one's house, one needs to do an inordinate amount of cleaning which takes away from fun stuff.  Then all I need to do is to pick the hair balls out of the brush and empty the collector.  Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

I alternate between the kitchen area and the living room area during the day.  In the evening I move it into my bedroom and turn it loose there.  While I still need to do a proper clean it significantly cuts down on hair balls and floor dust.

FYI - Mine came from Costco and is a Pet Series Roomba.

Works on both. I have hardwood laminate with throw carpets.

I have a good friend that also bought one years ago and loved it! Since my dogs are locked in the house during the day don't know that it would work for us but I think it is totally cool! Anything to make housework easier rocks.

Sometimes I put it into one room (say my bedroom) close the door and go about my business. This way it's still less cleaning but there are no dogs near it.
