I'm in cleaning heaven.

4. All, I can say, is you folks must not have much:

Clutter!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor little thing would commit "hari kari" in my place trying to get in between and under everything! yes, yes... decluttering IS my New Year's Resolution.

8. I live with two slobbos

I already had to rescue a sock out of Roomba. But yes you do need to pick up the small stuff that could choke him. He managed to go around boxes, shoes and laundry baskets quite well. He needed a rescue under the bed but after that he did real well. All in all though he's a hell of a lot easier than other vacuums. You gotta pick up the small stuff anyway if you really want to do a halfway decent job with any vacuum.

So far he's a 10!

5. I want one!

I'll bet it could not only clean the room but entertain the cats for hours!

9. He freaked Lilly (my little doggie) out

She's not easily intimidated. She was so confused she had to leave the room

6. do they work on wood floors? nt

10. I had him on the carpet. BUT

The rest of my house is hard wood. He'll be doing that tonight. I would imagine it would be even better on hard wood.

7. dyson is the way to go

you would be aMAZed at what that thing can pull up from your carpet, especially if you have a pet that sheds!

11. Do you have a Dyson? I have been wanting one

just because I was so impressed with the ads and the concept that this engineer Dyson was so frustrated that he decided to re-invent the vacuum.

If you don't mind - around how much do they cost?

12. NOT CHEAP

i think we paid around $500 for it.
it REALLY works well, it just better hold up over the years!
