I just vacuumed the whole house from corner to corner while I sat on my as

reading my Kindle and visiting the boards. How you ask?...

The Roomba, (I-Robot); I swear by it. That thing is impressive...I'm somewhat OCD and I think I'm clean; but you can't imagine the tiny minuscule dust particles the filter picks up out of the carpets (besides the debris bin). My floors and carpets are clean and I did nothing but push a button and sit back and enjoy my Kindle.

No, I'm not going to push the product like I do the SquareTrade Insurance...lol.

I wanted one of these sooooo much, I've seen it in action and it rocks!
But, my carpet is too shaggy and plush so it won't work.

That is great!! I am afraid that Harley would just run around barking at it and I wouldn't be able to read at all!!

OMG! I loved that.  It's almost worth buying one if I could get one of my cats to do that.

I agree 103% SJC!  I LOVE my Roomba.  I have it clean a different room every morning before I go work.  Great time saver..but my cats won't go near it.

Sorry about the 10 second commercial, but it's worth it to get the vid properly.

My mom bought me one for Christmas a few years ago, I haven't used it in a while though because I need to clean the brush but it does work great.

After watching the Woomba video, I find this very funny.

I wonder if this has anything to do with the cat in the video?

I'm on my third Roomba (Ricky III).  The first one, got all messed up because I had very cheap carpet and it got clogged with all the loose fibers.  I took it back to the store and they refunded my money, but couldn't exchange it because they had run out of stock.  I got my second one on-line.  Ricky III replaced the original because the battery would no longer hold a charge.  Since I had one of the original Roombas, they gave me a good credit toward buying a new one.  It didn't make sense to spend $50 for a battery, when for $80, I could get a new one. 

Ricky works great on hard floors and low pile carpet.  I can vacuum my floors, mow my lawn with my robotic lawnmower (Larry) and relax with Gertie K all at the same time.

Sounds like the Jetson's doesn't it?  All we need are out jetpacks and flying cars.
