Roomba Discovery Robotic Floorvac, Silver —
With three small boys 5 and under and two large dogs that shed like crazy I was so tired of sweeping! I had tumbleweeds rolling across my kitchen floor daily. Not so anymore! I purchased Roomba two years ago and have the cleanest floors in the neighborhood now! I run her daily and my floors have never looked so good. I admit that I didn't do under the bed and couch near as often as Roomba does! While she does come with walls, I find that a laundry basket does just as good. The walls work better at night in my opinion, and I vacuum during the day. I would recommend letting her go in no more than one or two rooms at a time though. That way you can ensure that the floor gets vacuumed thoroughly. It may take awhile, but she does a good job and above all I don't have another chore! I can even talk on the phone when she is running in the next room, so she even gets a high five for being quieter than any vacuum I can recall owning. All the positives I can give her, however, like another reviewer, I clean her after each use. I should get in the habit of cleaning her BEFORE she runs since she will go home to her 'base' to re-charge all on her own. Watching her go dock is another form of entertainment... although short-lived for adults, but the kids still love watching her go 'home'.
