Quoted from chad:Neat technology, but how hard is it to plug in the vac and do it yourself.? Let's not get America any lazier
Plugging in the vacuum and doing it every day is pretty much a PITA, and I'm sure no one who isn't on medication does it (that's a joke...no offense intended). We have a pomeranian and a shih-tzu (quit laughing!!) with all wood floors. Bottom line you can see the hair on the floor everyday. If you have carpet, you don't see it and can let it build for a week before vacuuming it all up. Our NeatO runs every day. It's scanning tech is second to none. No random bouncing. It maps the room and cleans in a side to side pattern...very time efficient.
The only downside I've come across is durability. This is our third. The first two each died after about two years. But it is such a great device for keeping the dog hair up, that we wouldn't want to have pets without one. The Deebot line looks interesting too. When this NeatO dies, I might give that brand a try.
