Does anyone else have this? I splurged yesterday and bought it for the kitchen. I just set it down when everyone finishes lunch and by the time the kids are sleeping, the kitchen floor is clean. It's like the Jetsons era or something

So did it work good? What kind of floor do you have? How much money?

It worked great! There were very few crumbs left but I mean..it's a machine, so I didn't expect human success. lol It comes with a little navigation cube so it bumps around the furniture and finds its way! I have pergo floors in the Kitchen (fake hardwood). Supposed to cost 199 at Bed Bath and Beyond...but those great 20% coupons saved me 40 bucks.

That is awesome! I am thinking about getting one, too.

Does it mop too or just sweep? I saw a contraption at Bed Bath and Beyond that mopped for around that price and I wanted it soooo bad!

I was thinking of getting this but my 97 lbLab would chase it around and try to pick it up a it moves!!! I have tile and I am so tired of sweeping all the time.

I have the roomba and scooba. The roomba gets the crumbs and the scooba mops. I still have to clean the floor once a week to get under stuff and in corners but it is do worth the money! One of my roomba even returns itself to its charging base and cleans each day at a time I programmed. I tell all of the hubby's to get one for their wife for Christmas. The kids love to run from them do there is an added bonus!

I used roomba until I killed him. For the record, he will die if you drop a case of water on him. OOPS. we did have a love affair for four long years though. I say love affair because I talked to him. Lol. Told him I loved him. Daily. Lol

I have one of those and the only thing that I don't like about it is that it can be rather finicky about the solution you put in it.
