As I seem to be doing domestic appliances at the moment -
I see Dyson have just announced their new 360 robotic cleaner thing. No price announced but I'll bet it'll be £999.
Sister has one - a Roomba - and waxes lyrical. Wife thinks it would be a silly gadget that will never be as good as a human doing the job, so why bother.
A little poke about Amazon reviews for something a bit more affordable (about £275 ish seems to get you in the sensible ballpark) leads to maybe a Roomba or perhaps the interestingly named Neato.
Reviews there reveal many who thought like wife before buying but think like sister now they have bought. Well, people always justify expensive purchases to themselves.
I appreciate those who don't work may have more time for vacuuming, and those who do may have none, and some may employ someone to do it, so it's a bit horses for courses.
So - anyone got one, or thought about it? Any real use?
