Default I bought a robot vacuum

I hate doing chores so I bought a Roomba 560, which is a robotic vacuum and it's pretty baller. I've got it programmed to run once a day and it does a pretty good job around my small place.

When I get my house, I'll buy one for each floor for sure.

I've been with my gf for 6+ years and she doesn't do as much in the way of cleaning (wtf is the point then right?)

The vacuum does about 80-90% of what a normal vacuum would do, but the thing is you can program it to go every single day. So let's say I normally vacuum once a week (lol at even that much) the fact that this runs 7x times in that week means it will do above and beyond a normal vacuum easy.

You just have to make sure you get the updated models, the older ones are the ones that normally suck. I got the 560 series which isn't the 2nd newest and most people give good reviews of it and I've ran it this last week and been impressed.

I will 100% be buying pretty much all of the things this company makes when I get a house. They have a robot tile scrubber thing that will spray solution down on hardwood/linoleum/tile, etc floors and scrub. They have a robot for cleaning pools I'll get. And there's no way in hell I'm actually mowing my lawn so I'll get one of those too. I'll have a Jetsons house, just need a convener belt to move me from place to place.

I think the correct term here is that "it blows" since a vacuum that sucks is exactly what ya want

I bought mine for like $200 on ebay or amazon. Price tag is normally like 300-350ish for the model I got. I can't wait to get a robot lawn mower when I buy a house, that's gonna be so baller.
