5. I've had one for a year... used it for 1 week
Too much pet hair - clogs the little thing. I need a ROOMBA - mega 6 pet household version.

PS - we have wood floors.

7. I hate that thing! I HATE that thing!
My younger sister gave it to my parents for Christmas. When my mom died, my sister used it as an excuse to drop in at all times to check up on my dad. She would put the Rumba in a room and close the door. Then she watched her baby in another room while the Rumba crashed into the walls. The kitchen door is one of those accordion doors and when the Rumba would hit it, it really did appear as if the thing was trying to escape.

One day I walked in from doing errands and just found her standing in the living room. I asked her what she was doing and she replied that she was vaccuming. I could hear the Rumba churning away in the master bathroom. It's so pathetic.

8. I adore mine. I put it on and it sucks up so much dirt I'm embarrassed.
Works as good as a large machine. Very much fun to watch. I recommend them.

9. My friend had one. We were going to stage a fight between it and
her chihuahua.


I'm kidding. Don't flame me.

10. I think the noise is annoying.
I've heard some people do start the thing and go to work, so it does it's thing while they're gone and don't have to listen to it.

Bad with fringe rugs too.
