Roomba Discovery SE on Woot - Robert M - 11-15-2007
Hi everyone,
I have a two bedroom apartment with hard wood floors. Never enough time to vacuum so I was thinking about grabbing one of the Roomba vacuums from Woot. Anyone have any experience with them?

noticing cheerios this past Sunday, I began to wonder if these Roombas would fare well in between all the pews in a church?

AAA,
Good question. I never have enough time to vacuum, even my little apartment. I figured the Roomba would be nifty because I can set it and forget it. (Chicken-style! - lol!)

yeah, I wondered about all the obstacles
-pew supports
-kneelers
-altar boys
and how it would be found or find its way back to charge???
But, it would be NICE if it COULD work under all the pews.

I have this model. It does a great job keeping the floors clean. It also gets the dog hair (Golden Retriever) that builds up around chair & table legs.
It is not very quiet, especially on hard floors. I set it loose on the way out the door in the morning.
I clean it out every two runs, and maybe once a week with compressed air to get all the dust out to prevent the sensors from being blocked.

Doesn't it scare your dog?

My dog thinks of it as a playmate.

Roombas ARE NOT vacuums.
